Efficacy of arthrocentesis with injection of hyaluronic acid in the treatment of inflammatory-degenerative disease of temporomandibular joint
...Show More Authors

Background:Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problems refer to a group of heterogeneous pain and dysfunction conditions involving the mastication, reducing life quality of the patients. Arthrocentesis is a simple and less invasive surgical method for the treatment of inflammatory-degenerative disease than other conservative procedures and better than arthroscope. This clinical study aimed at evaluating the benefit of arthrocentesis with injection of hyaluronic acid in the management of inflammatory-degenerative disease of the TMJ. Material and methods: Eighty consecutive patients were enrolled in this study with pain symptoms of TMJ, insufficient masticatory efficiency during function and limitation of mouth opening; they were assessed with clinical examination and approved with computed tomography scan. Arthrocentesis was done by inserting 18 gauge needles in the upper joint compartment, lavage by normal saline solution and at the end of the procedure 1ml of hyaluronic acid (HA) was injected. Intensity of the TMJ pain and masticatory efficiency was analyzed by visual analog scale (VAS), maximum mouth opening (MMO) was assessed by a ruler. All the assessed parameters were measured before the procedure then 1 and 4 months later. Results: During 5 months follow-up, comparison of the obtained results showed reduction in pain at chewing and rest 87.5%, improvement in mouth opening 100% and significant improvement in masticatory efficiency 87.5% of patients. Conclusion: The procedure of arthrocentesis with Sodium Hyaluronate injection, used in patients who suffered from inflammatory-degenerative disease (IDD), showed therapeutic benefits, simplicity, safety, patient satisfaction, lack of significant side effects and complications.

Inked Characters in Alison McGhee’s Tell Me A Tattoo Story and Darren Lopez’ My Teacher Has Tattoos
...Show More Authors

Although tattooed literary characters are not new in literature, they are still in children’s literature. Inked characters were nearly absent from children’s books and with the dawn of the twenty first century many of them portrayed tattooed characters. The problem of the study lies in the lack of studies concerning these types of characters in children’s books. The researchers aim to study inked characters in selected stories for children to show the different literary uses of tattoos in these stories, serving not only characterization but theme and symbolism as well. Two children's stories are selected for this study: Tell Me A Tattoo Story (2016) by Alison McGhee and My Teacher Has Tattoos (2023) by Darren Lopez. The researchers st

...Show More Authors

Medication safety is an important part of the comprehensive patient safety term. Medication safety is gaining more attention as the World Health Organization set the goal of decreasing medication harm by (50%) for the next 5 years when launching the third global challenge. Studying medication safety in the risk groups such as young ages, children are crucial to learn more about the effect of medicines in this risk group since they are not included in the clinical trials. Adverse drug reaction is defined as any harm resulted from the drug itself during medical process journey, while medication errors are any harm resulted from the treatment process rather than the drug or it is the result of the failure in a step of the treatment process

An Integrated Approach to Constraints Theory and Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) in Construction Projects (Case Study)
...Show More Authors

The research endeavors to harness the benefits stemming from the integration of constraint theory into construction project management, with the primary goal of mitigating project completion delays. Additionally, it employs fuzzy analysis to determine the relative significance of fundamental constraints within projects by assigning them appropriate weights. The research problem primarily revolves around two key issues. Firstly, the persistent utilization of outdated methodologies and a heavy reliance on workforce experience without embracing modern computerized technologies. Secondly, the recurring problem of project delivery delays. Construction projects typically encompass five fundamental constraint types: cost restrictions, tim
