In the practical classes of osteology the use of animals is routine, being that the obtaining of these materials, usually through donations of skeletons or dissections of ex alive animals. However, it is common some specimens to be scarce, making it difficult the progress of a classroom practice. With the purpose of increasing the osteological collection of Animal Anatomy Laboratory of the Veterinary Medicine Course, UNIJUI, the objective of this work was to develop alternative models of bones for use in the classroom.

Studies involving the fight against cancer have provided several advances that provide the understanding of the development of tumors, mainly regarding the molecular processes that constitute the structure that allows or enables the progressive transformation of healthy cells into malignant ones.Examinations at the molecular level of tumor development in patients is not very common, since there is a need for biopsies at various stages of transformation.

Abstract: Thoracic injuries account for 25% of all trauma deaths annually. Immediate deaths involve disruption of the heart or great vessel injury. Early deaths (those occurring within 30mins to 3 hours) are due to cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax, aspiration, or airway obstruction. Pulmonary sepsis and missed injuries account of the late deaths.

Total absence of small bowel is very rare situation. It usually accompanied with vascular accident or abdominal wall defect. The following case is presented to discuss the optimal care and best operative technique could be had in this situation. Case: Two-day-old neonate, G/A of 36th weeks, whom was referred to our center because of bilious vomiting and double bubble sign in the X-rays. Patient with diagnosis of duodenal obstruction was resuscitated and was transferred to operating room for exploration. We found adhesion and a sac, which was containing two blind pouches.

Aim: The present study was an attempt to investigate the relationship between multiple intelligences and reading comprehension ability of medical students. With advancements in psychology and cognitive sciences, the role of individual differences has been highlighted in the realm of L2 teaching. One of the outcomes of regarding individuals as different beings is the concept of Intelligence which has also gained an increasing importance in L2 learning, especially in reading comprehension skill.

Management of nephrolithiasis witnessed a revolution in the 1980’s by the advent of shock-wave lithotripsy (Chaussey, 1980) and percutaneous nephrolithotomy (Fernstrom and Johannson, 1976; Smith, Alken, Marberger, Wickham, 1980-84).

Objective: Increased coagulability is a rare but well-recognized feature which complicates Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Thromboembolism associated with ulcerative colitis has been reported since 1936 but there is no absolute therapeutic management protocol for thromboembolic complications yet. Case presentation: A 14-year-old girl was brought to our emergency department due to pain and paresthesia in both lower extremities and history of bloody diarrhea for 40 days before admission.

The aim of this study was to compare the hemodynamic changes during video laryngoscopy (glidescope) and the conventional method of direct laryngoscopy. Objective: Hemodynamic changes during intubation are extremely important especially in patients with a history of coronary artery disease and arrhythmia. Study Design: Randomized double-blind clinical trial. Methods: This clinical trial recruited 200 male patients undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery.

This article will provide a general overview of ECMO use and outcomes in thoracic trauma with severe respiratory failure.

We Cystic structures within the pericardial cavity are rare. They are divided into epicardial and pericardial variants. Pericardial and epicardial cysts rarely cause symptoms. Pericardial cysts occur at the rate of 1 person per 100,000.1Complete surgical excision is recommended when these cysts are detected. If cysts compress surrounding vital structures, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) should also be considered.Epicardial cysts originating directly from the epicardium are seen very rarely.
