Morphometric Variations of Frontal Sinus in Pediatric Age Group in Central India – A Study | Chapter 03 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 The goal of this study was to learn about gender-specific developmental and structural variations of the frontal sinuses in children in the Gurugram area of Haryana (Central India). The pattern of skeletal growth is predicted by the development and pneumatization of the frontal sinuses. The development of the craniofacial structures is proportional to the rest of the body's structures.

Methods: Between January and March 2019, a total of 36 patients were investigated in the Department of Radio-diagnosis at SGT Medical College, Hospital and Research Institute in Budhera (Gurugram), Haryana. Between the ages of 8 and 18, there were 12 females and 24 males. The morphological parameters of the frontal sinuses were evaluated. The plain X-ray of the paranasal sinuses was analysed using Caldwell's perspective.

The average width and height of the left frontal sinuses were 23.8 mm and 28.4 mm, respectively, ranging from 5.5 to 43 mm and 13 to 45 mm. With a range of 9.8 – 39 mm and 13-38 mm, the average width and height of the right frontal sinus were 20.4 mm and 20 mm, respectively. The average number of scalloping on the right and left was 1.9 and 2.19, respectively. Thirteen people (36.11 percent) on the left side and sixteen people (44.44 percent) on the right side had septations. Supraorbital cells were detected in 16 of the left side (44.44 percent) and 17 of the right side (47.22 percent).

Conclusion: The appearance and development of the frontal sinuses vary greatly in the paediatric age range. The right-hand measurements were discovered to be smaller than the left-hand dimensions. Scalloping and supraorbital cells were more prominent on the right side than on the left. The left side of the body has more septation than the right.

A Prospective Study about Safety and Efficacy of Perioperative Lidocaine Infusion | Chapter 09 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Opioids cause clinically significant side effects such as respiratory depression, immunosuppression, muscle rigidity, negative inotropism, nausea, vomiting, hyperalgesia, urine retention, postoperative ileus, and drowsiness. Perioperative opioids are a major contributor to the United States' and other countries' opioid epidemics. Non-opioid analgesics, particularly lidocaine, are becoming more common for perioperative use as a result of this. A total of 185 adult patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: control group I (105 patients) [fentanyl group] or group ii (80 patients) [opioid-free anaesthesia group]. Lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg bolus followed by 1.5 mg/kg/h infusion intraoperatively, and 1.5-2 mg/kg/h infusion for 2-8 hours postoperatively were given to patients in both groups at anaesthetic induction. Intraoperatively, both groups received analgesic adjuvants such as diclofenac 75 mg, paracetamol 1 gm, and mgso4 30-50 mg/kg. If the mean arterial pressure (map)

A Brief Study of Middleware Technologies: Programming Applications and Management Systems | Chapter 15 | Novel Research Aspects in Mathematical and Computer Science Vol. 1

  Many platforms, services, applications, hardware, and operating systems are connected through the middleware layer. Because the middleware layer abstracts much low-level complexity and makes applications and software systems portable, it allows disparate systems to interface and function together in harmony. Middleware technologies enable software engineers to swiftly construct software systems and applications, allowing developers to focus on more important tasks. This chapter examines several types of middleware systems and discusses middleware capabilities, middleware operation, middleware's function in cloud-based systems, and the best middleware platforms to use. Middleware systems are widely utilised and can be found in practically any software system or application. Middleware programmes provide as a link between many sorts of systems and protocols. They serve as a mechanism for various systems. To successfully exchange information, it runs on a variety of operating system

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili
