the present case, a 20 years old female patient, with
missing thumb of her right hand was rehabilitated aesthetically by a non-invasive and cost effective prosthetic
procedure by using heat temperature vulcanizing silicone
material. The prosthesis (the thumb) was attached using
medical adhesives. On 3 months recall appointment, no
complications were observed. The prosthesis was in good
shape and required no further intervention. The prosthetic
thumb lacks the sensation of a normal or reconstructed

Causative correction of skeletal malocclusions is achieved through bite–jumping by various means. Numerous animal experiments yielded evidence of rebuilt temporomandibular structures after mandibular protrusion. However, the mode and extent of structural and/or topographic changes of the disco-condylar relation after functional orthopaedic treatment is still an issue at stake. A problem exists in defining the physiologic (centric) position of the condyles and the proper disco-condylar relation which is tentatively determined by various methods particularly in MRI studies. Despite the high resolution provided, the results have to be interpreted with caution, as osseous resorption and apposition can not be assessed by visual evidence. In this article a prospective study is presented which proves the effectiveness of the “Wuerzburg concept“, i.e. bionator plus extraoral traction and up-and-down elastics, and its impact on the temporomandibular joint. The underlying reactions are studied by means of MR images obtained from sucessfully treated patients.

The Principe of high tibial osteotomy is to reduce the stresses of the internal compartment of the knee by valgizing the tibia.The
total knee arthroplasty on this tibia with a “malunion” presents technical difficulties related to the initial approach, the presence of osteosynthesis material, the presence of malunion and the change of bone density. The objectives of this study are to determine the clinical and radiographic results of patients undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) after High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO). This is a retrospective descriptive study including patients undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) after an High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) at the Hospital of Mont de Marsan (France) from 2008 to 2017 with a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Thirty knees (27 patients) were recruited. The sex ratio was 1.72. The average age was 70.33 years (54years-88years). The average time between High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO) and Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) was 10.83 years (1 year-26 years). The medial opening was 63.33% and lateral closure for the rest. Clinical improvement was observed, with an average gain of 24.97 points for pain, 1 point for stability, 1 point for knee mobility and 5 points for walking distance. The clinical result was perfect in 13.33%, excellent in 42% and medium in 36.67% of cases. The alignment was obtained in 76.67% of cases (p = 0.0039). The posterior tibial slope, epiphyseal varus, patellar height were corrected in 80% of cases respectivly (p = 0.000011, p = 0.44, p = 0.15). Residual pain was observed in 26.66%, joint stiff ness in 16.66%, skin healing disorder in
16% and infection in 6.66% of cases. Total knee arthroplasty made it possible to recover the failure of an high tibial osteotomy.

Open debridement and radiocapitellar replacement in primary and post-traumati...Alberto Mantovani
Background: Postmortem and clinical studies have shown an early and prevalent involvement of the radiohumeral
joint in primary and secondary arthritis of the elbow. The lateral resurfacing elbow (LRE) prosthesis
has recently been developed for the treatment of lateral elbow arthritis. However, few data have been
published on LRE results.
Materials and methods: A prospective multicenter study was designed to assess LRE preliminary results.
There were 20 patients (average age, 55 years). Preoperative diagnosis were primary osteoarthritis in 11
and post-traumatic osteoarthritis in 9. All patients underwent open debridement and LRE prosthesis.
Patients were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively with the Mayo Elbow Performance Score
(MEPS), modified American Shoulder Elbow Surgeons (m-ASES) elbow assessment, and the Quick
Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (Quick-DASH). Mean follow-up was 22.6 months.
Results: At the last follow-up, the mean improvement of MEPS and m-ASES was 35 (P ¼ .001) and 34
(P ¼ .001) respectively; the average Quick DASH decreased by 29 (P ¼ .001). Average range of motion
was improved by 35 (P ¼.001). MEPI results were excellent in 12 patients, good in 2, and fair and poor in
3 each. Mild overstuffing was observed in 5 patients, and an implant malpositioning in 3. The implant
survival rate was 100%.
Conclusion: LRE showed promising results in this prospective investigation. Most patients had an
uneventful postoperative course and have shown a painless elbow joint, with satisfactory functional
recovery at short-term follow-up. Further studies with longer follow-up are warranted.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
