Conservation agriculture practices (CA) is a management for available organic matter resources and considered important measures to enable farming in accordance with the principles of sustainable agriculture. The two-years experiment were performed on the soil under wheat crop. CA practices can help to decrease the area and duration for exposed soil to water erosion by increased soil aggregate size distribution, soil porosity, soil moisture and soil organic matter. Soil organic matter (SOM) is an important indicator of soil fertility and productivity because of its crucial role in soil chemical, physical and biological properties. CA leaves a soil organic mulch at the soil surface, which decreases runoff and soil loss. On other hand, soil mulch with plant residue as a component of CA is increased soil content of SOM. The least total cost for cultivation wheat crops under rainfed agriculture of Egypt achieved at conservation agriculture with No-tillage treatment (CANT) while the highest cost achieved at traditional agriculture (TA) treatment. The best results of decreased soil loss, increased SOM and wheat crop yield obtained when continue to apply conservation practices for more than one season. Indeed, our results showed the soil loss decreased about (56%) while wheat grain yield and SOM increased about (7% and 45%) respectively when using CA at the second season compared to TA. Conservation agriculture signifies environmentally friendly technologies reduce of climate related risks.

Introduction: Adnexal masses consist of anomalies which can be noticed in any age of women. These abnormalities determine different features during reproductive age, entail surgical treatment, and are monitored with clinical and laboratory findings. Adnexal masses may result from benign or malignant lesions of ovarian, tubal, and para tubal origin, as well as pregnancy-related causes such as ectopic pregnancy. The study intends to evaluate the adnexal masses by laparoscopy among patients admitted to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University from March 2016 to August 2016. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka. The sample was collected by the purposive consecutive sampling method. Subjects were selected by appropriate inclusion criteria. Data were collected after appropriate verbal consent from the guardian of patients and the result was subjected to standard statistical evaluation and was analyzed by the SPSS programme. Result: This study shows the average age was 27.82 years. Regarding parity majority (31, 62.0%) were nulliparous women and the majority (31, 62.0%) were from a lower-middle-class families. The primary complaints in the study group (27, 54.0%) were dysmenorrhoea followed by infertility (21, 42%). Eighteen women (18, 36.0%) complained of dyspareunia. Twenty-six patients (26, 52.0%) had tender mass. Size of the uterus, twenty-two (22, 44%) patients had an enlarged uterus. The commonest finding was tubo-ovarian mass in thirteen (13, 26.0%) patients followed by an endometriotic cyst in twelve patients (12, 24%). The findings of diagnostic laparoscopy, maximum (22, 44.0%) were enlarged uterus followed by fourteen patients (14, 28.0%) who had ovarian cysts. Conclusion: This study observed laparoscopic findings are far way better than ultrasonography. As a result, laparoscopy is a gold standard for the estimation of patients with pelvic adnexal masses.

The principal focus of the anaesthetist during surgical intervention in a patient with cervical myelopathy is to prevent further deterioration of the neurological system while delivering anaesthetic care. Successful surgical outcome of these patients requires a detailed preoperative review, careful and knowledge based peri-operative anaesthesia care plan and a robust collaboration between the anaesthetic and neuro-surgical teams. We report the case of a 76year old male medical doctor who presented with progressively worsening symptoms of cervical myelopathy and subsequently had laminectomy and decompression under general anaesthesia relaxant technique. We aim to highlight the place of detailed anaesthetic care plan in the successful management of this patient who was assessed as high risk for both a difficult airway and peri-operative anaesthetic complications associated with anaesthesia for cervical laminectomy and decompression.

Oxidative stress is often associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). It has been reported to cause infertility in males. Diagnosed at an advanced phase, DM-associated complications may not be reversed by standard therapy alone. This study therefore investigated whether zinc given alongside insulin may reverse or ameliorate oxidative stress induced by DM. Five normal rats was assigned into the normal control group. Twenty diabetic rats were randomly assigned into four groups of five rats each. The first group had no treatment throughout the experiment. The second group were administered insulin two times daily at one and four units in the morning and evening. The third group had oral zinc (10mg/kg). The fourth group had a combination of insulin and zinc at doses as above. Treatments in all cases commenced after two weeks of DM induction and lasted ten days. Testes were harvested and assayed for parameters. DM decreased SOD, GPx, GSH and increased MDA. While insulin or zinc increased SOD, GPx, GSH and decreased MDA, insulin and zinc in combination had better results.

Many ethnomedical researchers describe medicinal plants and the way they are used. In this research, the authors look at how a traditional healer can find a proper medical treatment. The decision-finding is influenced by the ideas of the local cultures regarding the treatment. In qualitative research, various healers were observed and interviewed. It was discovered that different elements influenced the decision-finding process like reference materials, experience and intuition. Furthermore, there are certain peculiar ways how to categorize a plant and decide whether the treatment needs a combination of plants or can be used without other medicinal plants. The healers are embedded in their environment. Therefore, certain concepts and cognitive patterns are essential for both the culture and the traditional medicine.

The use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in freshly hot mixed asphalt (HMA) can save on material costs, preserve energy, and protect the environment. Employing limited amount of RAP in the production of asphalt mixes can result in similar performance as normal mixtures. However, adding more RAP can reduce the HMA’s mixing efficiency and could make the asphalt mixture more susceptible to fatigue and low-temperature cracking. Vegetable oil can act as a rejuvenator and reduce the HMA deficiencies with a high RAP percentage. This study investigated the potential effect of two vegetable oils; namely soybean oil (SOY) and sunflower oil (SnF), as rejuvenators on the properties of asphalt binders that contain 40% of RAP binder. To determine the optimum dosage of the rejuvenators (SOY and SnF), the properties of the rejuvenated RAP binders were carried out by conducting the penetration, softening point, viscosity, dynamic shear rheometer (DSR), and bending beam rheometer (BBR) tests. The test results indicated that vegetable oils could provide better fatigue and low-temperature cracking resistance with acceptable rutting performance. Furthermore, it is observed that, for the abovementioned properties, the addition of the 6%SOY and 3%SnF were more feasible in restoring the 40RAP binder to its original properties.

Glucose uptake by the Sertoli cells of the testes is essential for spermatogenesis. Diabetes mellitus (DM) alters the uptake and utilization of glucose by the testicular cells. This manifests as one of the causes of male subfertility/infertility in diabetes mellitus. With onset of complications even before diagnosis, especially in developing countries, there may be need for therapy beyond the standard therapy. Five normal and twenty diabetic male rats were assigned into groups as follows; normal control had five normal rats with access to food and water only. DM group had five diabetic rats with no treatment. DM and insulin group had five diabetic rats and given subcutaneous insulin twice daily. DM and zinc group had five diabetic rats and given 10mg/kg oral zinc. The final group had five diabetic rats and given both insulin and zinc as above. Treatments in all cases only commenced after fourteen days. Testes were harvested after ten days of treatment for assay. DM decreased both glucose and lactate in the testes. Insulin and zinc improved the uptake of glucose and its utilization as evident in increased production of lactate.

Signet-ring cell carcinomas are malignant tumors that may affect the stomach and the colon, but extrahepatic bile duct localization is rare. Here we present a case (a 56-year-old Moroccan woman), without either pancreato-biliary mal-junction or liver disease. The patient had obstructive jaundice. Morphological studies by MRI and ERCP revealed a bile duct tumor obstructing the common bile duct and invading gallbladder and hepatic hilum. Pathological examination revealed a carcinoma containing signet-ring cells. The evolution was characterized by rapid disease progression; the patient died in about five months. The case of our patient is among the rare cases described in the mainly Asian literature, and the first case reported in North Africa.

The introduction of nanotechnology into our world has ushered in a slew of changes and provided a wealth of knowledge that has fuelled progress in many sectors of existence. Recent advances in nanotechnology have shown the importance of metal oxide nanoparticles due to their potentials in different sectors, particularly in nanomedicine and related biomedical fields. Metal oxide nanoparticles (MOx-NPs) such as titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2-NPs), copper oxide, silicon dioxide, zinc oxide and Iron oxide have gained a lot of prominence as a result of their unique properties. Metal and MOx-NPs based nanoparticles are being employed to create a novel antibacterial drug formulation, which is a revolutionary and ground breaking method to drug discovery and development. Different methods are employed for the synthesis of these nanoparticles of which green synthesis is found to be a better option. It involves the use of plant extracts which is a non-toxic solvent. Green materials offer a variety of advantages, such as low energy consumption and the capacity to operate under moderate operating conditions (such as pressure and high temperature) without the use of harmful chemicals or catalysts. Therefore, more research efforts should be geared toward the advancement of this important technology.

Fermentation processes have become a common practice for overproduction of amino acids nowadays as it is cheaper and easier than other processes for commercial production of methionine and other essential amino acids. Methionine is a sulfur-containing essential amino acid required in the diet of humans and other animals for normal growth and functions of the body. It is widely used in feed, pharmaceutical and food industries. The research was focused on fermentative production of Methionine by Bacillus cereus isolated from soil. Methionine was produced under optimized conditions (Temperature, pH, Incubation time and agitation rate) using one factor at a time (OFAT). Optimum methionine yield of (4.520 mg/mL) was obtained at temperature of 35oC, pH of 7.5, and agitation rate of 125 rpm and incubation time of 96 h using OFAT. Characterization of methionine produced using Bacillus cereus shows similar properties with the commercially produced methionine by using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) which shows the amino and carbonyl group spectrum at 1640 cm-1 and 3257 cm-1 respectively. Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) showed a band of methionine produced by bacillus cereus aligned with the commercial methionine.
