Biomaterial and Regenerative Medicine Approaches to Restoration of Flexion in Lumbar Herniated Disc

Global Journal of Biotechnology and Biomaterial Science Research Article Objective: The systematic objective of this paper is to restore flexion in vertebral bone and to nourish the nucleus pulposus through the approach of biomaterial and regenerative medicine. Method: Studies were made on the treatment of lumbar herniated disc in CINAHIL, PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews(CDSR). This paper provides methods for restoration of flexion in the bone. A biomaterial scaffold made of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) consisting of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins which is synthesized in vitro through regenerative medicine is replaced in the place of degenerated disc. The scaffold model is designed in CAD and then printed in LAB. The metabolic functions of the disc are performed by the scaffold. #openaccessjournals #openaccess #openaccesspublication #openaccesspublisher http://www.peertechz.com/Biotechnolo

A Japanese Case of Nonpustular Annular Psoriasis

International Journal of Dermatology and Clinical Research Research Article Nonpustular annular psoriasis is a rare form of psoriasis with clinically annular ring-shaped configuration. In contrast to recurrent circinate erythematous psoriasis, which is the mildest form of pustular psoriasis, no evidence of histopathological Kogois spongiform pustule formation is detected. We report a case of 57-year-old Japanese woman with nonpustular annular psoriasis for 4 year.  #openaccesspublishing #openaccessjournalsonline #freeonlinejournals http://www.peertechz.com/Dermatology-Clinical-Research/pdf/IJDCR-2-117.pdf

Role of Dentists in Creating a Tobacco free Society

Archives of Community Medicine and Public Health Letter to Editor “Giving up smoking is easy I have done it a thousand times” is an adage that puts in perspective the difficulties in tobacco cessation. Tobacco is a global agent of death [1]. The tobacco epidemic is one of the biggest public health threats the world has ever faced, killing around 6 million people a year. More than 5 million of those deaths are the result of direct tobacco use while more than 600 000 are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke. Nearly 80% of the more than 1 billion smokers worldwide live in low- and middle-income countries, where the burden of tobacco-related illness and death is heaviest [2]. Globally the toll of deaths due to tobacco is on a rise exponentially. The role of dentists in creating a tobacco free society is very vital. http://www.peertechz.com/Community-Medicine-Public-Health/pdf/ACMPH-2-116.pdf #openaccesspublisher #openaccesspublishing #openaccessjournalsonline

Depression, Alcoholism, and Genetic Alcohol Sensitivity Regulated by ALDH2 and ADH1B Polymorphisms among Japanese Community-Dwelling Adults

Archives of Depression and Anxiety Research Article Background : Although strong association between drinking and depression as well as alcoholrelated disorders (ARD) has been reported, the relationship between potential ability to drink (genetic alcohol sensitivity) and depression or ARD is unclear. Genetic alcohol sensitivity is regulated by two alcohol metabolic enzyme genes, ADH1B and ALDH2 polymorphisms. We have already evaluated the association between depression and these polymorphisms in Japanese white-collar workers. Current study expanded this issue on community-dwelling relatively older adults. http://www.peertechz.com/Depression-Anxiety/pdf/ADA-2-113.pdf #openaccesspublisher #openaccesspublishing #openaccessjournalsonline

Application of Nano Drugs in Treatment of Leishmaniasis

Global Journal of Infectious Diseases and Clinical Research Mini Review Objective: Leishmaniasis is endemic in 88 countries with incidence rate of 1.5-2 million; the most common form of leishmaniasis is cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) with 1.5 million new cases per year. Correct diagnosis and characterization of the particular parasite is important for evaluating prognosis and prescribing appropriate treatment. The current management of leishmaniasis is drug treatment of patients, to alleviate disease and vector control to reduce its transmission. Also, current treatments for visceral leishmaniasis are unsatisfactory because of their toxicity, resistance and high cost. The purpose of the present study was to review the application of nano drugs in treatment of leishmaniasis. http://www.peertechz.com/Infectious-Diseases/pdf/GJIDCR-2-109.pdf   #scholarlyfreearticles #scholarlyopenaccess #scholarlyjournals

Systemic Sclerosis Associated Angiosarcoma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

International Journal of Dermatology and Clinical Research Case Report Cutaneous angiosarcoma is an uncommon malignant vascular tumor with a highly variable presentation. It most commonly occurs on the head and neck of elderly Caucasian men, while less commonly on the skin of persons with pre-existing conditions or cutaneous lesions. To date, only three reports of angiosarcoma arising on the head and neck of individuals with systemic sclerosis exist in the literature. We report the fourth case: a 58 year-old African-American female with systemic sclerosis who developed an epithelioid subtype of cutaneous angiosarcoma on the right elbow, rather than the head and neck region. http://www.peertechz.com/Dermatology-Clinical-Research/pdf/IJDCR-2-115.pdf

Hurdles for Starting Ministernotomy Aortic Valve Replacement Program

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiology Research Article Research article regarding hurdles for starting ministernotomy Aortic valve replacement program in Grant Medical College, Mumbai and techniques to overcome them. Here we studied twenty patients of aortic valve replacement surgery out of which ten are operated by ministernotomy and ten by full sternotomy in our institution, from May 2013 to May 2016. Middle age patients are selected out of which seven had regurgitant and three had stenotic lesion of aortic valve. Our observations are sternotomy time was more in initial cases but it decreased with experience. We faced difficulties in deairing heart and giving shock with routine internal shock paddles. It required special sterile external shock paddles. We required conversion to full sternotomy in two patients because heart continued to fibrillate even giving shock with paediatric internal shock paddles. CPB time, cross clamp time, CCU stay was same as compared to ful

Aortic Valve Thrombosis in Antiphospholipid Syndrome Causing Coronary Artery Embolic Disease

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine and Cardiology Case Report Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a disorder characterized by the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies which are known to promote thrombus formation and heart valve complications. In this case, a 20 year old African American male presenting with chest pain was found to have APS as well as Budd-Chiari Syndrome. He was then evaluated through the use of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac catheterization, which revealed an aortic valve thrombus as well as myocardial infarction from coronary artery emboli. This is the first time this condition has been documented in the literature and serves as an example of successful detection and treatment. The patient underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and the thrombus was surgically removed. The patient was discharged with lifelong prescription for anticoagulant medication . http://www.peertechz.com/Cardiovascular-Medicine-Cardiology/pdf/JCMC-3-128.pdf
