Low back pain (LBP) is a common musculoskeletal problem during pregnancy with an estimated prevalence ranging from 30% to 78%. The symptoms usually disappear gradually after delivery, but some women may have persistent problems even later in their lives. The definite mechanism behind LBP during pregnancy remains unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether hand grip strength (HGS), which is a straightforward and reliable indicator of overall muscle strength, is associated with unrecovered LBP after delivery.
 
  257 pregnant women who registered at obstetrics units in two tertiary hospitals from January 2016 to June 2017 and meanwhile suffered the LBP during pregnancy were included. They were grouped based on whether they recovered from LBP after delivery (recovery was defined as a pain rating of ≤3). The variables such as age, HGS, and education level were recorded and examined for the risk analysis of unrecovered LBP. Also, the Pearson correlation between HGS levels and pain intensities was investigated.
 
  LBP without recovery at two years after delivery was reported among 22.7% of the subjects. Women with increasing age, low HGS (<25kg), LBP in a previous pregnancy, back pain, sick leave, and a large amount of physical demand (all p<0.05), were more likely to report LBP without recovery. Besides, there was a significant correlation between HGS values and the intensities of LBP (r=-0.525; p=0.003).
 
  Low HGS has the highest OR value (adjusted OR=9.12, P<0.001) among these factors. The present findings may be used to design and encourage a specific stabilization exercise regime to build well stability of the lumbar spinal column and thus alleviating the LBP.

  Liver transplantation remains the only curative treatment in end stage liver disease. Biliary complications remain the most common major morbidity causes in hepatic resection. We aimed to determine and eliminate the bile leakage in donor hepatectomy of LDLT.
 
  This study was conducted retrospective and one center study. The study population included 110 consequential liver donors with major liver resection (more than three segments). The population was divided into three groups for data analyses.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/jib-04.html  Primary study groups included 40 donors subjected to methylene blue test starting in April 2013 and 40 donors subjected to intraoperative cholangiography started in March 2014.
 
  A total of 110 liver donors (42.7% women) were included in the study. Postoperative biliary complications were less in methylene blue and intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) groups. Bile leakage was significantly higher in control group (23.3%) compared to methylene blue (5%) and IOC groups (2%) Average duration of hospital stay and durattectomy cases. IOC test reduced postoperative biliary leakage incidence and did not increase incidence of other complications.
  In the United States, over 1 million burns require medical treatment each year. Chemical burns represent an infrequent but devastating percentage of all burns, which account for a large proportion of all burn-related deaths. Of the various causes of chemical burns, sulfuric acid is most commonly involved in occupational and accidental burns, and even cases of assault.
 
  We describe the case of a 27-year-old man who presented to our Emergency Department (ED) after an assault with sulfuric acid. During his presentation, particular attention and care was given to his decontamination, airway management, and correction of life-threatening metabolic derangements. After stabilization in the ED he survived an extensive hospital admission. WHY SHOULD AN EMERGENCY PHYSICIAN BE AWARE OF THIS? Patient outcomes and prognosis after chemical burns are dependent on prompt recognition/suspicion and rapid initiation of treatment. Even with prompt treatment, severe physiologic and psychologic injuries often afflict the patient. While encountering these devastating injuries, the emergency physician must carry a heightened sense of care and protection for both patient and staff to ensure optimum outcomes.

  Empirical analyses of the data available around the word concluded that women have longer life span now, when compared to the men. Available literature unfortunately could not offer full answers to this observation. The "entropic age" concept suggests that ageing related changes in the body, such as loss of molecular functions and overwhelming of the maintenance systems, may be explained in terms of entropy generation.
 
  Telomere-length regulated entropic assessment based on metabolic activity with four different diets carried out.
 
  Estimates of the life expectancy of the women on all of these diets is longer than those of the men. Faster shortening of the telomere lengths in men was the major reason of the shorter life expectancy. The highest and the lowest life expectancy for women were estimated with Mediterranean and the vegetarian diets, respectively; men were estimated to have the longest life span with the vegetarian diet and the shortest life span with the ketogenic diet.
 
  A higher rate of metabolism causes higher entropy generation and hints correlations that can be helpful in future ageing research.
