Authors: ULU Mustafa , BULUT Meryem Berrin
Published: July 2018

Kişilik, insana ait en dikkat çeken ve psikolojinin özel olarak ilgilendiği olgulardan birisidir. Kişilik çalışmalarının temel amacı, davranışların nedenlerinin bilimsel yöntemlerle açıklanabilmesidir. Günlük yaşantısı içerisinde çevresiyle bilinçli ya da bilinçsiz olarak etkileşimde bulunan birey, etrafında gerçekleşen olaylara ve uyarıcılara kendi hayat görüşü, değerleri, düşünce biçimi ve inançları doğrultusunda kısaca kişiliğini oluşturan yapılar çerçevesinde tepkiler vermektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinin kişilik özelliklerinin HEXACO (Humility-Honesty, Emotionality, eXtraversion, Agreeableness, Constientiousness, Openness to Experience) yardımıyla belirlenmesidir. Araştırmaya, bir devlet üniversitesinde 2016-2017 yılları arasında öğrenim gören 283’ü kadın ve 81’i erkek olmak üzere 364 üniversite öğrencisi katılmıştır. Veriler, HEXACO ve kişisel bilgiler formu yardımıyla toplanmış ve SPSS 24.0 ile analiz edilmiştir. Ölçek, 60 madde ve 6 faktörden oluşmaktadır. Ölçekteki maddelerin değerlendirilmesi 5’li Likert tipi bir derecelendirme üzerinden yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın verilerinin analizinde nicel analiz tekniklerinden yararlanılmıştır. Betimsel istatistik yöntemlerinden ortalama ve standart sapma değerleri; çıkarımsal istatistik yöntemlerinden ise korelasyon analizi kullanılmıştır.Bulgular, katılımcıların kişilik özelliklerinden en yüksek ortalamaya H ve en düşük ortalamaya ise X faktöründe sahip olduklarını göstermektedir. Alt faktörlerde ise en yüksek ortalamaya adalet ve en düşük ortalamaya sosyal benlik saygısında sahip oldukları saptanmıştır. Kişilik özelliklerinden H ve E faktörlerinin cinsiyet değişkenine göre anlamlı olarak farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir. Buna göre her iki faktör için de kadınların ortalama puanları erkeklere göre daha yüksektir. Alt faktörlerde ise samimiyet, adalet, korku, endişe, duygusallık ve mükemmeliyetçilik alt faktörlerinde kadınların; esneklik alt faktöründe ise erkeklerin ortalama puanları anlamlı olarak daha yüksektir. Korelasyon analizi sonucunda ise H faktörü A ve C faktörleri ile olumlu ve anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahiptir. E faktörü X ve A faktörleri ile olumsuz ve anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahiptir. X faktörü O faktörü ile olumlu ve anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahiptir. Son olarak, C faktörü O faktörü ile olumlu ve anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahiptir.Araştırmada HEXACO’nun revize edilmesi ve yeniden geçerlilik-güvenilirlik testlerine tabi tutulması gerektiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları ilgili literatür temelinde tartışılmış ve yorumlanmıştır.
QFLan: A Tool for the Quantitative Analysis of Highly Reconfigurable Systems
Authors: Vandin Andrea , ter Beek Maurice H. , Legay Axel , Lluch Lafuente Alberto
Published: July 2018

QFLan offers modeling and analysis of highly reconfigurable systems, like product lines, which are characterized by combinatorially many system variants (or products) that can be obtained via different combinations of installed features. The tool offers a modern integrated development environment for the homonym probabilistic feature-oriented language. QFLan allows the specification of a family of products in terms of a feature model with quantitative attributes, which defines the valid feature combinations, and probabilistic behavior subject to quantitative constraints. The language's behavioral part enables dynamic installation, removal and replacement of features. QFLan has a discrete-time Markov chain semantics, permitting quantitative analyses. Thanks to a seamless integration with the statistical model checker MultiVeStA, it allows for analyses like the likelihood of specific behavior or the expected average value of non-functional aspects related to feature attributes.
Program Analysis is Harder than Verification: A Computability Perspective
Authors: Cousot Patrick , Giacobazzi Roberto , Ranzato Francesco
Published: July 2018

We study from a computability perspective static program analysis, namely detecting sound program assertions, and verification, namely sound checking of program assertions. We first provide a general computability model for domains of program assertions and corresponding program analysers and verifiers. Next, we formalize and prove an instantiation of Rice's Theorem for static program analysis and verification. Then, within this general model, we provide and show a precise statement of the popular belief that program analysis is a harder problem than program verification: we prove that for finite domains of program assertions, program analysis and verification are equivalent problems, while for infinite domains, program analysis is strictly harder than verification.

The reasoned action approach applied to health behavior: Role of past behavior and test of some key moderators using meta-analytic structural equation modeling
Authors: Hagger Martin S , Polet Juho , Lintunen Taru
Published: July 2018

Rationale: The reasoned action approach (RAA) is a social cognitive model that outlines the determinants of intentional behavior. Primary and meta-analytic studies support RAA predictions in multiple health behaviors. However, including past behavior as a predictor in the RAA may attenuate model effects. Direct effects of past behavior on behavior may reflect non-conscious processes while indirect effects of past behavior through social cognitive variables may represent reasoned processes. Objective: The present study extended a previous meta-analysis of the RAA by including effects of past behavior. The analysis also tested effects of candidate moderators of model predictions: behavioral frequency, behavior type, and measurement lag.Method: We augmented a previous meta-analytic data set with correlations between model constructs and past behavior. We tested RAA models that included and excluded past behavior using meta-analytic structural equation modeling and compared the effects. Separate models were estimated in studies on high and low frequency behaviors, studies on different types of behavior, and studies with longer and shorter measurement lag.Results: Including past behavior attenuated model effects, particularly the direct effect of intentions on behavior, and indirect effects of experiential attitudes, descriptive norms, and capacity on behavior through intentions. Moderator analyses revealed larger intention-behavior and past behavior-behavior effects in high frequency studies, but the differences were not significant. No other notable moderator effects were observed.Conclusion: Findings indicate a prominent role for habitual processes in determining health behavior and inclusion of past behavior in RAA tests is important to yield precise estimates of model effects.
The role of retrospectively perceived parenting style and adult attachment behaviour in music performance anxiety
Authors: Wiedemann Anna , Vogel Daniel , Voss Catharina , Nusseck Manfred , Hoyer Jana
Published: July 2018

This study aimed to examine the extent to which music performance anxiety (MPA) relates to retrospectively perceived parenting style and adult attachment behaviour. Participants were 82 music students (M=23.5 years, SD=3.4) with the majority being vocal (30.5%), string (24.4%), or piano (19.5%) students having about twenty performance opportunities per year each. MPA was assessed using the German version of the Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (K-MPAI). Parenting style was measured by retrospective self-report using the German version of the Measure of Parenting Style (MOPS); Adult attachment behaviour by the Relationship Questionnaire (RQ) based on Bartholomew's four category model. Furthermore, general anxiety-related symptoms were assessed by the Disorder-Specific- Severity Measure (GAD). Canonical and partial canonical correlation analyses were used to measure the dependence between multi-dimensional constructs. Both parenting style and adult attachment behaviour were related to MPA as measured by a performance-related sub-scale of the K-MPAI (r=0.45, p=0.01 and r=0.37, p=0.02, respectively). Partial canonical correlation, however, showed no significant relations between MPA and parenting style or attachment in conditioned models. A strong link of MPA and generalised anxiety was found in all analyses. This study expands on more theoretical research in this area and provides first empirical insight into this complex multi-dimensional relationship.
The Implicit Activation Mechanism of Culture: A Survey Experiment on Associations with Childbearing
Authors: Shepherd Hana , Marshall Emily A.
Published: July 2018

This paper proposes a mechanism by which exposure to forms of culture “in the world” activates individuals’ cognitive associations beneath conscious awareness, making certain behaviors more likely. A survey experiment illustrates part of the proposed mechanism, testing whether cues that make salient a shared cultural representation affect the activation of individuals’ associations with childbearing. Drawing on cultural beliefs regarding the ostensible contradiction between close relations and monetary exchange, we expect that making one of these spheres salient would inhibit activation of associations with the other sphere. As predicted, respondents randomly assigned to a cue regarding family have fewer associations between childbearing and finances. We demonstrate the relevance of these findings to respondents’ fertility desires, a measure connected to behavior. We discuss the conditions under which this mechanism may exert the most influence on behavior and outline key future research questions that the proposed model introduces.
The Concept of Successful Aging
Authors: Misha’l Aly A
Published: July 2018

Aging is characterized by progressive and predictable changes that include gradual, unrepaired accumulations of biochemical tissue alterations that compromise cell and tissue systems, rendering individuals to become less fit to reproduce, and survive. The complex processes of aging are not homogenious among individuals and in various tissue systems, and are influenced by genetic, lifestyle and environmental factors. Aging can be healthy or pathological. The Concept of successful aging is related to opportunities for continued activity and productivity that should represent an essential strategy from both social and medical perspectives. The heterogenous deterioration of functions are initially detectable as loss of reserve capacity to restore homeostasis under stress, followed by altered functions at rest. This article will present contemporary knowledge related to health and psychosocial parameters and undertakings that aim at achieving continued healthy lifestyle, generatively and making significant contribution by the elderly.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 01 No. 01 January’17.

Published: July 2018

Background: The learners’ environment is crucial for development of professionals. In Uganda, there was no studies assessing the learning environment have been found. Objective: This study was performed to assess the undergraduate students’ perceptions of medical education in general and educational environment in a newly established faculty of medicine in Islamic University in Uganda.Materials and Methods: The Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM), a validated inventory was distributed among undergraduate students in the first year of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery study. This scale consists a 50 item inventory each of the50 items is scored on a 5-point Likert scale (0 to4).Results: The average total DREEM score was found to be 127.5 (maximum point is 200 in the scale) for the students. This score was interpreted according to the practical guide of McAleer and Roff those students’ perceptions of their learning environment were more positive than negative. In addition, the descriptive values of 5 subdimensions of the scale were found as follows. The Perceptions of Learning dimension average is 33.69 ± 6.10, the Perceptions of Teachers dimension average is 25.89 ± 4.44, Students’ Academic Self-Perception 23.35 ± 3.91, Perceptions of Learning Atmosphere dimension average 29.83 ± 7.01 and Social self-perceptions dimension average 13.90 ± 3.92.Only the mean Social Self Perceptions sub-dimension score were below the expected average score (maximum score/2), and all of the other mean of dimensions were higher than the expected average. The best score is obtained from Perceptions of Learning. The items with low scores (less than 2) on the DREEM questionnaires were identified as in need of rehabilitation.Conclusion: On the whole, the study showed that the students’ perception of the educational environment and the teaching delivered were positive but the student’s social self-perception was not good. Measures to improve student’s social self-perception will be adopted.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 01 No. 01 January’17. Page : 26-29

Withdrawing or Withholding Treatment
Authors: Hassan Chamsi Pasha , Ali Albar Mohammed
Published: July 2018

Muslims believe that all healing comes from God, so they have the obligation to search out medical care and right to receive appropriate medical treatment. Islam considers disease as a natural phenomenon and a type of tribulation that expiates sin. Unfortunately many elder patients with chronic illness spend their last few weeks or months in hospitals. Life support is not required if it prolongs the agony and suffering associated with final stages of a terminal illness. The decision to withhold life support from a patient in the intensive care unit (ICU) is a modern medico-legal issue. When considering end-of-life decision making, both withholding and withdrawing life support are considered to be ethically and legally equivalent. Islamic law permits withdrawal of futile treatment on the basis a clear medical decision by at least three Physicians.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 01 No. 02 July’17.

Background: Intestinal obstruction (IO) is the failure of propagation of intestinal contents, and may be due to a mechanical or functional pathology.Objective: The aim of this study was to find out the factors, causes, management, and complications associated with IO among adults at KeysaneyHospital.Materials and Methods: A three-year hospital based cross-sectional study was carried out between January 1st, 2014 and December 31st, 2016 with use of the data collected from 180 patients’ medical files including demographics, duration of the disease process, year of admission, hospital stay, causes of IO, operative findings, management, outcomes and complications.Results: In the study group, 148 (82.2%) patients were men, whereas 32 (17.8%) were women, and among all admitted patients, 88 (48.8%) patients lived in Mogadishu. The peak age was between 21-40 years, with a second peak age among elderly patients between 51-70 years. A majority of the patients of 73% presented within more than a week of illness, while 67 (37.2%) patients were discharged within the first week, 47 (26.1%) were discharged within the second week, and 66 (36.6%) stayed in the hospital for more than two weeks. Mechanical obstruction accounted for 142 (78.9%) of all cases. Mechanical small bowel obstruction (SBO) was the most common type with a rate of 61.1%, followed by mechanical large bowel obstruction (LBO) with a rate of 15.6%, while mechanical SBO/LBO was found in 2.2% as compounds of volvulus. Paralytic ileus was found in 9.4% of the cases. The type of obstruction could not be determined in 11.6% of the cases. Overall, adhesions and bands (36.7%) were the most common cause of obstruction followed by strangulated hernias (16.7%) and volvulus (12.7%). Tuberculosis peritonitis (7.8%) was the most common cause of paralytic ileus. Nonoperative management was carried out in 94 (60%) patients while the remaining 64 (40%) cases underwent surgery. Common post-operative complications were wound infection (3.3%) and peritonitis (2.8%). Other rare post-operative complications included wound dehiscence and organ failure.Conclusions: Several factors contribute to either the cause, or the management of IOs. Some of these determinants may include the time since the onset of illness because of late presentation due to lack of health facilities, lack of health awareness, ignorance and poverty. Poor clinical judgment and lack of management guidelines are also the negative factors leading to poor prognosis in these patients.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 01 No. 02 July’17.

Do-Not-Resuscitate Orders: Islamic viewpoint
Authors: Hassan Chamsi Pasha , Mohammed Ali Albar
Published: July 2018

It is imperative to seek remedy in life-threatening situations. When treatment benefit is doubted, seeking remedy becomes facultative. If the treatment is futile, there is no need to continue. Resuscitation has the ability to reverse premature death. It can also prolong terminal illness, increase discomfort, and consume resources. The do-not-resuscitate (DNR) order and advance directives are still a debated issue in critical care patients.The DNR order in the case of terminal illness is encouraged in Islam.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 01 Jan’18.

Published: July 2018

Introduction:Pregnancy Induced Hypertension (PIH) results from imbalance between pro-angiogenic factors (VEGF & PIGF) and antiangiogenic factors (sVEGFR-1/sflt- 1)Subjects and methodology: A mixed random study comprising of random cases of different gestational ages 28-36 wks of PIH mothers along with control cases till completion of pregnancy after delivery. Age of enrolled mothers and their gestational age, blood pressure, serum free VEGF and sVEGFR-1(sflt1) were compared in both groups (control n=36, PIH n=36). Blood pressure of both control and PIH mothers just before and after delivery showed significant correlation (p<0.0001). Serum levels of free VEGF were lower among PIH mothers at 28-36 wks (p <0.0001) and just before delivery (JBD) (p <0.0001) than normal control antenatal mothers and more or less similar in both groups at just after delivery (p <0.390). Serum sflt1 level (6459.81 ±1811.07 pg/ml) of PIH mothers showed higher value than control mothers (1062.19 ± 165.98 pg/ml) at the time of presentation and also just before delivery(JBD) & after delivery(JAD) and was highly significant ( p < 0.0001). Serum free VEGF level of PIH mothers was negatively correlated with systolic r= - 0.247, p = 0.147) and diastolic (r =-0.220, p =0.197) blood pressure. The increased serum sflt1 level of PIH mothers was positively correlated with systolic (r = 0.299, p = 0.07) and diastolic (r = 0.309, p = 0.067) blood pressure. Semi quantitative expression of VEGF R1 and PCNA LI of placenta showed increased (3+) expression of VEGF R1 of 13 (43.33%) and > 50% PCNA LI expression of 12 (40%) cases than control.Discussion &Conclusion:The elevated levels of systolic and diastolic blood pressure along with alteration of proangiogenic and angiogenic growth factors among PIH mothers than normotensive control may help to identify PIH mothers as early as possible and referring them to higher/tertiary centers for better management and prevention of its grave complications of PIH.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 01 Jan’18.

One of the five matters before being overtaken by its opposite as advocated by the Prophet (SAW) was “your health, before you fall sick” (Muslim). This concept of the Prophet’s Medicine (Tibb Nabawi) has been much discussed and unfortunately misunderstood, even abused in recent times. This paper attempts to examine the Quranic exhortations on health and healing and its practices as exemplified by authentic traditions of the Prophet (SAW). This would enable us to extract guiding principles about various healthcare issues including holistic care, preventative strategies, training, bioethics, hospital services, clinical research and global health.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 02 April’18.

Spiritual Care at The End Of Life: Western Views and Islamic Perspectives
Authors: Ahmad Wafa ‘a Qasem
Published: July 2018

The concept of spiritual and religious care, as core components of palliative care for patients at end of life stages, has achieved significant organized applications and advances in modes of intervention and tools. The past two decades have witnessed waves of secularization with impacts of the concepts of spirituality and chaplaincy that diverged away from religion, more so in the UK and some European countries as compared to US applications. Spirituality became more generic and broad that revealed itself in helping and education of patients and families to earth and think of meaning and purpose of life, suffering death and dying. The issues of spirituality and religiosity in the Islamic culture, teachings and attitudes towards patient care at terminal stages of life, is distinguished by clarity and harmony in view of clarity of Muslim beliefs and interpretations concerning purpose, meaning and mission of human life on this earth, end-of-life care and the afterlife. This paper will address the contemporary western diverse concepts of spirituality, its relationship with religiosity in terminal patient care, and will elaborate on the holistic Islamic views and attitudes towards this stage of human life.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 02 April’18.

Authors: Shiban Sumaia AN
Published: July 2018

Background: Dyspepsia is a common complaint, considered as one of the gastrointestinal disorders having a great unfavourable impact on the economic status for countries and individuals, work productivity and quality of life.Objectives: The aims of this study are: to estimate the prevalence of dyspepsia among a convenient sample of patients referred for upper endoscopy, to determine the association between dyspepsia and selected different lifestyle and demographic variables, to find out the relationship between dyspepsia and psychological disturbance, and to estimate the prevalence of positive endoscopic findings in comparison to normal (negative) endoscopy.Materials and Methods: A cross sectional study included a convenient sample of 460 patients aged 15 or above. Data were analysed and statistical significance determined by Chi- square test at level (P≤ 0.05).Results: Out of 460 patients, 443 filled the questionnaire completely. The prevalence of dyspepsia among the sample was 59.6%. Among the dyspeptics, endoscopic results showed that functional dyspepsia was more prominent than organic dyspepsia. Variables significantly associated with dyspepsia according to Rome IV criteria were: Age (P= 0.001), income (p= 0.02), psychological disturbance as stress, anxiety and depression (p=0.001 for each), previous GIT consultation or medication (p=0.001) and H. pylori infection (p=0.001).Conclusions and Recommendations: Dyspepsia is associated with a variety of factors. Functional dyspepsia could be prevented by working on lifestyle habits modification and giving more attention towards psychological conditions of patients. Healthcare professionals recommended to identify patient’s history more carefully and to proceed with more investigation that is gradual procedures.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 02 April’18.

Tobacco dependence; the whole story
Authors: Hawari Feras I
Published: July 2018

The use of tobacco dates back to hundreds of years and is considered highly addictive. Nicotine is the predominant substance that causes tobacco dependence. Nicotine exerts its effect via similar neurological pathways used by other recreational drugs resulting in high level of dependence. All forms of exposure to tobacco including active use of tobacco, second-hand as well as third-hand exposure to tobacco smoke are known to be harmful. Tobacco is the only risk factor that is common between all non-communicable diseases including cardiovascular diseases, respiratory illnesses, cancer and diabetes mellitus. International consensus regarding the harms of tobacco is now evident. Many international organizations are mapping the way for the end of tobacco. Until then, aggressive treatment for those subjects interested in quitting must be provided in order to prevent a significant surge in non-communicable diseases especially in low income countries. Tobacco dependence is a chronic relapsing disorder that requires a multidisciplinary approach using psychological and pharmacological techniques.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18.

Physician’s Role At Time Of Death
Authors: Akhtar Sohail , Memon Abdul Majeed
Published: July 2018

Physicians deal with dying patients frequently. A lot is expected from them. Apart from managing the illness including making the last moments of the patient’s life pain-free as much as possible, the physician is responsible for counseling the relatives, breaking the news, and for consolation. Most doctors do not get training on these aspects in either the medical schools or afterwards and find such situations difficult to handle. Physicians need to avoid doing too little when it can matter, or too much when there is no hope. Restoring faith can help the patient as well as the family in coping with such extreme situations. One can learn from Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) how to deal with a dying person on a human level, as well as how to beprepared for death by supplication and reading Qur’an.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18.

Authors: Waqas Ansari Abdul , Shahzad Momin , Rasool Naziya Aejaz
Published: July 2018

Background and Objectives: The study of the physical universe, its structure, dynamics, origin and evolution, and fate are still having the ground for further research. Cosmology is the biggest challenge from the ancient time till today for philosophers and thinkers. The Aristotle and other philosophers have given the fundamentals about the genesis of all living and non-living things. Their observations were based on naked eye examinations. They believe that the four primary qualities which are known as Kaifiyāt-i-Arba‘a in Arabic and Unani Medicine i.e. Heat, Cold, Moisture, and Dryness are mandatory for each reaction, and are responsible for genesis, destruction, putrefaction, changes and variations of all the things. For example; the lower temperature of the scrotum is necessary for the production of semen in the testicles. We cannot make Ice without maintaining the appropriate cold temperature. Similarly the evaporation of water cannot take place unless the water is warmed up by the appropriate heat. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of four primary qualities regarding the physical changes and variations in all the things.Methods: Literature related to four primary qualities of the matter (Kaifiyāt-i-Arba‘a) was surveyed from various classical Unani books, journals, periodicals, manuscripts, and online citations from the subject specific websites. Collected material was then analyzed and systematized in comprehensive manner.Conclusion: Kaifiyāt-i-Arba‘a are four primary qualities of the each matter i.e. Heat, Cold, Moisture, and Dryness. These are perceived by touch and tactile sensations only. These four qualities are responsible for destruction and putrefaction, build-up and break-down processes of each physical body.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18.

Acute supraglottitis or epiglottitis is regarded as one of the feared pediatric emergency. With the advance in immunization, it is now less frequently seen in the group however there is an increase incidence in adult. Abscess formation following an acute episode of supraglottitis is uncommon but carries a significant morbidity and mortality. We present three cases of acute supraglottitis complicated by deep neck abscess. All of the patients required incision and drainage under general anesthesia with two of them required both intraoral and external approaches to drain the abscess. All of the patients recovered well postoperatively.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18. Page : 149-154

Published: July 2018

A gallbladder that is placed on the left side of the liver without situs inversus is a very rare situation. This anatomical position makes harder to define with ultrasonography (US) before operation. A 41-years-old woman admitted with complaints of indigestion, bloating and stomach pain which started one year ago. Multiple millimetric gall stones were detected at ultrasonography, and there wasn’t any information about the anatomic position of the gallbladder. A laparoscopic cholecystectomy was scheduled for the patient. It was visualized that the gallbladder was embedded in the segment III of the liver intraoperatively. In such cases, the fact that vascular and biliary anomalies may accompany should be kept in mind as this condition may hinder the clear visualization of the cystic artery and duct which may bring the risk of iatrogenic injury.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18.

Published: July 2018

Frontal bone fracture is a common facial bone fracture which commonly involved the outer table part. Most of the time outer table fracture is treated conservatively. However, when there is involvement of orbital wall fracture, as well as entrapment of extraocular muscle, surgical intervention via open reduction and internal fixation is needed. We described a case of outer table frontal bone fracture with left orbital roof fracture complicated with superior rectus muscle entrapment which was successfully treated via open reduction and internal fixation.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18.

Authors: V Kumareysh Vijay , Khalid Mohd Azizul Fitri , Mohamad Irfan
Published: July 2018

Preserving hemithyroid intraoperatively in a total laryngectomy operation is uncommon, as this procedure normally leads to high rate of hypothyroidism similar to total thyroidectomy. This has caused most of the surgeons to prefer total thyroidectomy when involvement of the thyroid gland is suspected. We report a rare case of total laryngectomy with preservation of one lobe of thyroid gland in a 57-year-old man with left unilateral transglottic laryngeal carcinoma. Post operatively the patient was well without signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism or hypocalcemia. The patient was not started on any hormone or calcium supplements after the surgery.International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 02 No. 03 July’18. Page : 170-173
