This study conducted to investigate This study conducted to investigate the effect of kinesiotape on pain and disability in postpartum women who suffering from coccydynia. Forty women suffering from postpartum coccydynia, their age ranged from 25 to 35 years old, also their body mass index (BMI) ranged from 25- 35kg/m2. They were selected from outpatient clinic of Gynecology department of Kasr El Ainy University Hospital, duration of the study was 6 months, from January to May 2021.

In this paper, Tb-N-TiO2 nanocomposites with different calcined temperature were synthesized through a facile step by sol-gel method. Besides, structural characteristics, morphology and photochemical properties of the nanocomposites were characterizedby X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that the Tb-N-TiO2 composites were existed in the form of anatase.

Background: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by a common presentation of cough (mostly dry), breathlessness, and related symptoms with a systemic disorder when present. ILD is also recognized as diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) and is divided into two categories: idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and other than IIP. Interstitial lung disease and pulmonary fibrosis are two types of lung diseases that involve inflammation and fibrosis of the lung parenchyma.

Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has a substantial negative impacts on quality of life. Although, Ultrasound (US) modality held an effective role for CRS, there aregreat conflicting opinions concerning in CRS management. Aim of Study: to compare therapeutic effects of continous USversus pulsed US in treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis.

Introduction: To compare between the effect of aerobic exercise and yoga on depression in breast cancer women. Methods: Overall, 40 breast cancer women suffering from depression, aged 25-45 years, were divided randomly into two groups equal in number. Group A (n=20) received aerobic exercise, while group B (n=20) received yoga. Both groups received 24 sessions over an eight weeks’ period. Depression was evaluated pre and 8 weeks post intervention for all participants with Zung Self-Rating depression Scale.

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic leading to National lockdowns, disruption of health care services and fear of attending health facilities has affected the well-being of the pregnant women and their babies. A very few studies done on pregnancies complicated with COVID-19 suggest that the pregnant women may present with severe manifestations leading to feto-maternal compromise. Methodology: We did a retrospective descriptive study in GMC, Kathua after attaining approval from Institutional Ethical Committee.

Purpose: To briefly discuss a young, otherwise healthy Caucasian male who presented to an emergency department with the complaint of acute scotoma. Observations: External ocular and anterior segment examination were unremarkable. A dilated fundus examination of the right eye showed a wedge-shaped area of retinal whitening and cotton wool spots in the inferior macula between the optic nerve head and fovea.

Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is an uncommon disease with a very similar clinical presentation as pulmonary artery embolism. We present a case of a 53 year old female patient who presented with chest pain and shortness of breath and was later found to have pulmonary vein thrombosis. The diagnoses was established with a CT scan of chest which showed a filling defect in a right segmental pulmonary vein. Patient was started on heparin drip and later discharged on oral apixiban. Three month later, CT scan showed resolution of thrombus.

Introduction: Total intravenous anesthesia is used more and more in the neurosurgical patient, which has been considered a complex technique per se, which together with the changes that occur in the patient with neurological pathology make it even more complex. Objectives: The present review aims to evaluate in a practical way the main pharmacokinetic models and correlate them with the changes that occur in neurosurgical patients. Methodology: PubMed, Science Direct was searched using intravenous anesthesia, spinal surgery, neurosurgery as search terms.

Back ground: Coccydynia is a pain in the coccyx. It mainly affects females. Approximately 14% of coccydynia occurs due to delivery trauma. Muscle Energy Technique (MET) and stretching exercises are mainly used to treat the musculoskeletal disorders. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to compare between the effect of muscle energy technique and stretching exercise in the management of post-natal Coccydynia. Methods: Forty volunteers, multi-Parus femalesubjects suffering from Coccydynia after six weeks post-partum.
