Introduction: Genital candidiasis is a common fungal infection primarily affecting women. It is caused by yeasts of the genus Candida, mainly Candida albicans. This infection can lead to symptoms such as itching, burning, vaginal discharge, and pain during sexual intercourse, thereby affecting the quality of life of patients. The study examines the prevalence of vaginal candidiasis among women consulting at the Mbangassina Hospital in Cameroon. It identifies as...

Introduction: It is revealed by biomedical studies that the autonomous nervous system mediates most clinical effects of acupuncture/moxibustion. Whereas, it is advantageous for the classical meridian system to instruct acupuncture/moxibustion by classifying the various acupoints into related meridians. Purpose: It was aimed to replace the classical meridian system with the consistent classification of both autonomous nervous functions and acupoint character ...

The network of lymphatic vessels in the skin has been studied for centuries. In 1984, Sappey published an atlas of lymphatic vessels. The discovery of lymphoscintigraphy around 1950 renewed interest in verifying the pathways of lymphatic vessels in patients with skin melanoma. Lymphoscintigraphy quickly became an indispensable technique for mapping sentinel lymph nodes. Detecting sentinel lymph nodes is essential for conducting adequate diagnostics, appropriately staging patients, and administer...

In May 2016, it was proposed by the US athletes of the National Basketball Association (NBA) on television that the nociceptive-sympathetic coupling be required for pain sensations. Later, it was demonstrated that, via the activation of sympathetic outputs directly by the nociceptive neurons in laminae I and V of the dorsal spinal horn as well as those in periaqueductal grey (PAG) of brain, it was completed the nociceptive-sympathetic coupling in vertebrates. In this article, for the evolutionar...

The objective of the study was to establish the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSD) on nurses’ productivity in Kakamega County. The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study and quantitative methods were adopted. The study was carried out in hospitals in Kakamega county Kenya. A self-administered questionnaire (The standardized Nordic questionnaire) was used to gather information from randomly selected nurses (n = 130). Data were presented using descriptive statistic...

The objective of the study was to investigate nurses’ awareness of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSD) in Kakamega county. The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study and Quantitative methods were adopted. The study was carried out in hospitals in Kakamega county Kenya. A self-administered questionnaire was used to gather information from randomly selected nurses (n = 130). Data was presented using descriptive statistics in the form of frequencies and percentages for categorical...

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI’s) are any disorder in a brain’s functionality that can be caused by numerous reasons, including motor-vehicle crashes, falls, and assaults. Impractical in-vivo head injury experiments compel bio- engineers to develop a robust, accurate, and efficient computer model. In this study, bovine brain samples were tested under a confined compression testing machine. Consequently, the result from unconfined compression tests, at quasi-static strain rates of ε=0.0004...

Sub-Saharan Africa has the worst global shortage of health professionals. The use of eLearning interventions, that lead to increased interactions according to the Interaction Equivalency theorem, is a potential means of addressing this shortage of health professionals. In this audit we set out to determine the effect of an eLearning general histology and general embryology intervention on student’s summative examination scores. The audit compared the written and practical summative examination s...

In May 2016, it was suggested by the US athletes playing games of National Basketball Association (NBA) in television that the pain sensation might result from the post-sensory nociceptive-sympathetic coupling. In this re-view, it is attempted to newly delineate the underlying neural pathways for this post-sensory nociceptive-sympathetic coupling. Based on the con-temporary feedback neural circuits of pain transmission in spinal c ...

Background: Identification is of importance for any crime investigation. Among several other methods, lip prints, if available, should also be evalu-ated to point out the relationship between the individual and the committed crimes. Lip print evaluation is known as “cheiloscopy” and important for forensic anthropologists in identification process since they are unique for each individual as fingerprints. Sex estimation is from lip ...
