Results of combined treatment of lymph node tuberculosis
The cervical lymph node location remains the most frequent extra-pulmonary tuberculosis location. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic results of patients treated with the combined form of antituberculosis drugs. This was a retrospective study of 50 patients with tuberculosis treated with the combined form of anti-tuberculosis drugs. The total duration of medical treatment varied from 6 to 18 months with a good compliance rate of 80%. Digestive disorders were the most reported adverse events. Elsewhere, visual disorders such as dyschromatopsia and retrobullary optic neuropathy, hepatic cytolysis and cholestasis were reported. Allergic manifestations were noted in one case. Three patients presented a paradoxical reaction. In total, a switch to the dissociated form was recommended in four cases. The treatment failure rate was 13% with surgical management in 8 cases, including 2 cases of recurrence. After cure, two patients presented a recurrence.

The Further Tales of A Country Doctor
In 1976 Paul migrated from England to Australia with his then-wife in an attempt to rejuvenate their relationship. When that didn't work, and the marriage finally petered out, Paul decided to give up city life altogether and move to the country. There he served the locals of "Dixon's Bridge" and "Rushby" in central Victoria as their medical practitioner for thirty-plus years. In those three decades of service, he met lots of colorful and memorable people, became involved in many difficult and unforgettable cases, and lived his life to the fullest. In the stories in this, his second book about life in the country, readers are introduced to the residents of the local home for the elderly: Doris who danced as a teenager in the Folies Berg癡re; Marianne, who fought with the resistance in France; and Merv, who shared the smelliest house in Stoney Creek with his best mate, Charlie the ram. Readers will also meet Mario, the patriarch of a local Italian family, whose many cousins seem able to help Paul out with whatever he needs, including making furniture and mending pianos; Rita with her Viking vocabulary and razor-sharp intellect undamaged by ever having received any education; and Roxy, a teenager taken too early in a car crash in the rain.In amongst all of this Paul meets the love of his life: Helen. Unfortunately, Helen leaves for France shortly after they meet, leaving Paul with Chanel, a very pampered poodle, guardianship of which proves to present many challenges. The stories are all full of heartbreak, love, laughter, and inspiration, and will make readers laugh, smile, and cry as they get to know each of the characters. Paul also openly shares the time he was hospitalized, and his road to recovery which was made easier with the support of the whole community who embraced him as their own.

Utilization of Cervical Cancer Screening Services among Female Health-Care Workers in General Hospitals
Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2021 in the subject Medicine - Diagnostics, Osun State University, course: Nursing, language: English, abstract: This study was conducted to determine the utilization of cervical cancer screening services among female health-care workers in Lautech Teaching hospital, in Osogbo, Osun state. A total sample size of 170 female health-care workers were recruited for this study. A descriptive cross-sectional design was utilized to assess utilization of cervical cancer screening services among female health-care workers. The data was collected through a self-administered questionnaire and consisted of six sections. The collected data were entered using Excel and later analysed using the "Statistical Package for Social Sciences 25". The data were presented using tables, a bar chart, frequency, and percentages. Furthermore, three null hypotheses were tested using chi square at 0.05 level of significance. Cervical cancer screening is a key to detect the pre-cervical cancer in an early stage, but it is rarely utilized in most developing countries and most cases are only diagnosed at a late stage of cervical cancer. The current screening level will not have any real effect to control cervical cancer unless female health-care workers are addressed since they act as a role model to the public.

Mastering peritoneal dialysis in six steps
Peritoneal dialysis is a technique of extra renal purification in its own right, it represents an excellent alternative to haemodialysis especially in the paediatric population, unfortunately it is still denigrated by patients who panic at the idea of being alone with their disease and largely prefer the comfort that haemodialysis provides. The role of the nephrologist is to reassure his patient and to guide him on the path of home extra renal cleansing, it is clearly imperative that the first adherent must be the practitioner and that passes by a total control of this technique. Through this manuscript and in six steps I propose a simple and efficient training allowing you to make your first steps in peritoneal dialysis and in total safety.

Dear All, The US and its allies would destroy Russia's troops and equipment in Ukraine - as well as sink its Black Sea fleet - if the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, uses nuclear weapons in the country, former CIA director and retired four-star army general David Petraeus warned recently. In my opinion, we should actually not stop there - and also liberate Russia from the Putin regime - as I'm quite sure the majority of the Russian people would welcome American G. I's with open arms, and throw flowers at their feet: ) This is actually no joke - the US being a bit like an elephant - quite difficult to arouse, but once lead into the right direction, quite a formidable force. In fact, Americans are quite different from us Europeans, being not the most intelligent species, but having picked up quite efficient war strategies from their Native American brethren: ) So in all humility, I would like to inform the Putin regime and the Kremlin, that I do not control America fully - as some Americans do not regard me as their acting President yet - but rather as a revolutionary, who is supposed to get his butt out of America again - or so I have heard: ) Also, the US Congress is currently dominated by the Republicans. So should the American elephant be unleashed in Europe - just like in WW2 - the US Congress, under my leadership, would probably push this time for a lasting peace between America and Russia. In other words, Russia and the US must finally bury the hatchet, and work together on International Peacebuilding. It should also be noted, that UN chief Antonio Guterres said that it was time for Russia to end their absurd war in Ukraine, declaring the conflict unwinnable. Guterres added that "the only outcome" to more fighting was "more suffering, more destruction, and more horror as far as the eye can see." Hence we are strongly encouraging all Russian Forces to withdraw from Ukraine and engage in Peace Talks, so that Diplomacy and Dialogue can be restored in the International Community: ) It is imperative that all Russian Forces withdraw from Ukraine, so that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) can be restored in the International Community. On that note, we would like to encourage all people on Earth to join us in Meditation and Prayer to manifest Peace on Earth. God Bless / Бог благословил / Бог благословить / Love and Light Acting President of Российская Федерация and the US: Mark O'Doherty, BTB-Global Peacebuilding

Breast Cancer Classification Using Machine Learning. An Empirical Study
Diploma Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Medicine - Diagnostics, grade: 3.55, course: Computer Science, language: English, abstract: The study will classify breast cancers into foremost problems: (Benign tumor and Malignant tumor). A benign tumor is a most cancers does now not invade its surrounding tissue or spread around the host. A malignant tumor is another kind of cancers which can invade its surrounding tissue or spread around the frame of the host. Benign cancers on uncommon event can also surely result in someone's death, but as a fashionable rule they're no longer nearly as horrific because the malignant cancers. The malignant cancers at the contrary are like those killer bees. In this situation, you do not need to be doing something to them or maybe be everywhere near their hive, they will just spread out and attack you emass - they could even kill the individual if they are extreme enough. Manual manner of cancer category into benign and malignant may be very tedious, susceptible to human error and unnecessarily time consuming. The proposed system while constructed can robotically classify the sort of most cancers into the safe (benign) and also the risky (malignant). This machine plays this role through the usage of machine getting to know algorithm. The following is the extensive of this new system: Classification mistakes could be notably removed, early analysis of disorder, removal of possible human mistakes and the device does no longer die. However, the researcher seeks to detect and assess the class of breast using Machine learning.

Vital Checklist
The Five Why's of Vital ChecklistWhy should patients use Vital Checklist? Health caregivers spend years/decades in getting trained in their field, while patients have 15 minutes to ask questions. The Internet is an excellent tool as a symptom checker but to be on the same page; patients need a symptom checklist to discuss their history and recognize disease patterns. Why should health caregivers and patients be on the same page? Why should health caregivers use Vital Checklist? Improved communication and improved documentation. Why is it essential to document and communicate effectively? Reimbursement by ICD-10 requires asking more questions and documentation. Communication is the fundamental tenet which is measured by Patient Experience Score. Why is the Patient Experience (PE) Score vital for a health caregiver and healthcare facility? PE improves job satisfaction, decreases stress, and promotes health and wellness of the health caregivers. PE improves the credibility of the healthcare facility and health caregivers. PE improves reimbursement. Why is it essential to pay attention to job satisfaction of healthcare employees, credibility, crisp documentation, proactive communication, and improved patient experience score? Reduce malpractice lawsuits Decrease burnout amongst health caregivers.

Early Detection and Intervention in Audiology
A textbook with case studies for audiologists and speech pathologists to make recommendations for early detection and intervention of hearing impairments in the South African context Early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) is the gold standard for any practicing audiologist, and for families of infants and children with hearing impairment. EHDI programs aim to identify, diagnose and provide intervention to children with hearing impairment from as early as six months old (as well as those at risk for hearing impairment) to ensure they develop and achieve to their potential. Yet EHDI remains a significant challenge for Africa, and various initiatives are in place to address this gap in transferring policy into practice within the southern African context. The diversity of factors in the southern African context presents unique challenges to teaching and research in this field, which has prompted this book project. The South African government's heightened focus on increasing access to health care which includes ongoing Early Childhood Development (ECD) programs, make this an opportune time for establishing and documenting evidence-based research for current undergraduate and postgraduate students. Early Detection and Intervention in Audiology: An African Perspective aims to address this opportunity. Grounded in an African context with detailed case studies, this book provides rich content that pays careful attention to contextual relevance and contextual responsiveness to both identification and intervention in hearing impairment. With diverse contributions from experts in local and international contexts, but always with an African perspective, this is textbook will be an invaluable resource for students, researchers and practitioners.
Early Detection and Intervention in Audiology
A textbook of case studies for audiologists and speech pathologists that makes recommendations for early detection and intervention of hearing impairments in the South African context Early hearing detection and intervention (EHDI) is the gold standard for any practicing audiologist, and for families of infants and children with hearing impairment. EHDI programs aim to identify, diagnose and provide intervention to children with hearing impairment from as early as six months old (as well as those at risk for hearing impairment) to ensure they develop and achieve to their potential.

Video-oculographic Examination of Oculomotor Function in Presymptomatic ALS Mutation Carriers
Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Medicine - Neurology, Psychiatry, Addiction, grade: 1,0, University of Ulm (Klinik f羹r Neurologie), language: English, abstract: This thesis deals with the video-oculographic examination of oculomotor function in presymptomatic ALS mutation carriers. Cognitive deficits are observable in ALS. This study was performed in order to test if this deficit could already be observed in a preclinical phase. Up to this moment putative alterations in a preclinical, presymptomatic phase of ALS-MC are barely studied. Therefore, this study aimed at investigating preclinical oculomotor performance in asymptomatic ALS mutation carriers.quantitatively detect changes in executive eye movement control in asymptomatic ALS mutation carriers by video-oculographic examination under controlled conditions with healthy age, sex and educational matched healthy unrelated controls. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most frequent adult-onset motor neuron disease. As for now, causal therapeutic options are still limited for ALS. The devastating disease is defined as a fast progressive, multisystem degenerative disorder, which is clinically characterized by a predominant loss of motor neurons that disrupts signals to all voluntary innervated muscles. This leads to a progressive weakness of the respective muscles following an almost complete paresis after a couple of years. ALS usually ends in death due to respiratory failure after 30 months on average from disease onset.

Monte Carlo Simulation of a Curved-Detector Gamma Camera
Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Medicine - Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, grade: with Honours Degree, University of Aberdeen, course: Medical Physics, language: English, abstract: This study aims to develop a fully curved gamma camera using a Monte Carlo simulation in GATE to investigate whether there are any advantages to this configuration in terms of sensitivity or resolution. Both flat and curved detectors were simulated using the same materials and collimator hole diminutions to ensure valid comparable results. There were four sets of simulations conducted with different phantom sizes and different parameters to get comprehensive results. Then, ROOT and Jupyter Notebook were used to analyse the data to give the necessary visual and quantitative data to compare the two detectors. As a result, the curved detector proved to be better in terms of sensitivity in all simulation sets and yielded a better result with less noisy images when imaging small phantoms; nevertheless, it was more susceptible to high-energy photons, which penetrated the collimator and effected the image negatively. However, the flat detector was shown to be better in terms of resolution when imaging a large phantom and more immune to the high-energy collimator-penetrating photons. In addition, the flat detector images when imaging a larger phantom had less scattered photons and less noise. To conclude, further studies could be done to develop the proposed configuration and reach its maximum potential.
