Fortunately, with the advancement of medical science and early diagnosis of many types of cancer, we can hope for its complete treatment. Some believe that cancer is a disease that occurs mostly in elderly people. Although most of the time they are right, but many young people also get cancer. A large number of researchers around the world are working to find the best and newest way to treat cancer. Among these researchers, some of them are trying to reduce the medical and therapeutic wastes that cause the patients a lot of pain. One of the important side effects of radiotherapy is the destruction of healthy cells and damage to the skin, which causes secretions, wounds and skin necrosis. Currently, to prevent these wastes, dozang oxide cream or ointment is used, which has not been seen to have a good effect. Fortunately, there is a lot of information in modern and ancient medicine related to the healing properties of aloe plant, including the healing of skin wounds, burns, sunburn, and skin inflammation, which facilitates its use in modern medicine. Radiotherapy in high doses destroys cancer cells or slows their growth by damaging DNA. Cancer cells whose DNA has been damaged beyond repair will stop dividing and die. When damaged cells die, they are broken down and removed by the body. Radiotherapy does not kill cancer cells immediately. It takes days or weeks for the treatment to damage the DNA enough to kill the cancer cells. Then, cancer cells continue to die for weeks or months after the end of radiation therapy.

Introduction: According to information currently available, there has not yet been a published study about the effectiveness of intraperitoneal dexamethasone that uses high-quality methodology. However, after laparoscopy, dexamethasone intravenously has been used to treat nausea. In this study, we compare the efficacy of intraperitoneal dexamethasone with placebo in patients who have undergone gynecologic laparoscopy in a double-blind randomized clinical trial.Material and Methods: The patients were divided into groups using the four-block block randomization method. The groups' treatment options were chosen at random by drawing lots. There were an equal number of candidates in each block at the conclusion of the selection process. Anesthesia was administered to each patient. A 16 mg dose of dexamethasone was administered into the peritoneum of patients in the first group at the conclusion of the procedure, while patients in the second group received a placebo injection of 16 cc of normal saline.Results: Within the first 0, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours following the procedure, the dexamethasone group experienced significantly less pain than the placebo group. The placebo group consumed more opioids on average as analgesics/sedatives than the dexamethasone group. Conclusion: Our study's findings demonstrate that, compared to a placebo, 16 mg of dexamethasone can significantly lessen the intensity of pain following gynecologic laparoscopy, and these patients also require fewer opioids. Controlling postoperative pain following laparoscopic surgery can be done in advance using this technique, which has no negative side effects.

Introduction: A woman's body undergoes physiological and anatomical changes during pregnancy that affect a number of systems, including the musculoskeletal system. These alterations may result in low back pain or low pelvic pain during or after pregnancy, impairing the movement of these structures and causing discomfort. Material and methods: Using the terms "low back pain," "pelvic girdle pain," "lumbopelvic pain," "posterior pelvic pain," "pregnancy-related low back pain," "pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain," and "pregnancy-related lumbopelvic pain," we searched the literature in Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Ovid, and Google for articles in English, Portuguese, and Spanish published in the previous 20 years or older, as appropriate. Results: In this study we focus on terminology, epidemiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment, the aim of this study was to discuss the diagnosis and treatment of pregnancy-related lumbosacral pain. Conclusion: One of the main causes of lumbosacral pain is pregnancy, which is also one of the most common illnesses during gestation. Pregnant women's quality of life is improved when this pathology is properly managed.

Junctional rhythm occurs when the junctional areas of the AV node become the heart pacemaker instead of the SA node. For example, when SA node activity is slow or AV junction automatics increase. Elusive junctional rhythm occurs if the AV junction discharge rate is between 40-60 times per minute and its causes include patient sinus syndrome, digitalis intoxication, lower MI, rheumatic heart disease and vagus nerve stimulation. Accelerated junction rhythm occurs when the junction rate is 60-100 beats per minute. Digital poisoning, hypokalemia, lower extremity MI heart problems and rheumatic heart disease. The presence of three premature beats of AV junction or more at a speed of 200-60 beats per minute is called junctional tachycardia and its possible causes include digitalis intoxication, ischemia or infarction of the lower or posterior myocardium, congenital heart disease in children and inflammation of the junction AV is after heart surgery.

Introduction: Statins are powerful lipid-lowering drugs that have been shown to be effective in preventing heart disease and reducing the risk of death and heart attack. It is unclear whether hyperlipidemic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting benefit from the lipid-lowering effects of statins. We sought to determine whether prior statin therapy could affect the outcome of hyperlipidemic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study conducted between 2012 and 2015, hyperlipidemia to mortality post anesthesia in patients who are candidates for coronary artery graft surgery was investigated. Results: Risk-adjusted multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that statin-treated hyperlipidemic (odds ratio, 0.42; 95% confidence interval, 0.26-0.69; P = .0007) ratio was 0.42; confidence interval, 0.26-0.69; P = .0007) was independently associated with a reduction in major in-hospital cardiac events, but not in-hospital mortality. A similarity score based on the previous 14 risk factors was performed to further control for bias. After similar correlations, randomized controlled trials confirmed that statin-treated hyperlipidemia and non-statin-treated eulipidemia were associated with reductions in major cardiovascular hospitalizations (difference odds ratio, 0.41; 95% confidence, 0.24-=0.71 [P. .0013] and odds) rate is 0. Conclusion: Although there was no increase in MACE in these normolipidemic patients who did not receive prior statin therapy, results from other CABG studies 6,7,8,9,16 and 25 in patients with heart disease were background in all patients who received CABG. LDL-C levels may benefit from long-term statin therapy. Although some of these patients did not see immediate short-term benefit, this study did not examine the long-term outcomes and future cardiovascular events of MACE. This group of patients may also benefit from a reduction in long-term MACE with statin therapy despite low preoperative LDL-C levels.

By studying the morbidity of surgery conducted by surgery physicians’ surgery ward at Rasool Akram hospital, we wanted to reduce morbidity cause and take a little step in improving the patient's health. Method: Medical records of patients operated in rasool akram hospital was investigated and information such as surgery, intraoperative and postoperative complication associated v variables were recorded in the check list. Result: Re-laparotomy possibility in Men was 3.5 times more than women Metastatic pathology likely increases the necessity of re-laparotomy to 1.2. The possibility of re-laparotomy in a patient who has a history of positive chemotherapy increase up to 2.9. The possibility of re-laparotomy in case of prolapse increases to 2.4 (1.8-3). Conclusion: The possibility of re-laparotomy increases with factors such as male gender, metastatic pathology, positive history of chemotherapy, the incidence of prolapse and incidence of adhesion. Although having Gl anastomosis increases the risks of post op complications and being problem with the colostomy leading to its closure are such important issues in predicting relaparotomy chances.

Introduction: This review aimed to describe pregnancy-related hand and wrist issues and provide an overview of the pathology, clinic presentations, clinical examinations, and treatment options for these conditions; however, it does not discuss autoimmune-related musculoskeletal disorders during pregnancy. Material and Methods: Using the terms " Hand," " Wrist," " Hand and Wrist," " Hand and Wrist problem " "pregnancy-related Hand pain," "pregnancy-related Wrist pain," and "pregnancy-related Hand and Wrist pain," we searched the literature in Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Ovid, and Google for articles in English, Portuguese, and Spanish published in the previous 20 years or older, as appropriate. Results: The quality of life for pregnant women who have hand and wrist issues may be reduced. These ailments are temporary, benign, and self-limiting, and it is anticipated that they will go away after giving birth. Conclusion: During the third trimester of pregnancy, when hormonal changes, fluid retention, and weight gain are at their peak, hand and wrist problems are most common. Although NA, pyogenic granuloma in the hand, ligamentous laxity of the joints, arthralgia, and exacerbation of arthritis in the hand and wrist have all been reported, the most common disorders are pregnancy-related CTS and De Quervain disease. For problems with the hands and wrists caused by pregnancy, non-surgical treatments are frequently successful.

Introduction: The severity of the symptoms and the risk factors connected to them have not been described, but knee pain can be a common complaint during pregnancy. The purpose of this study was to identify knee-related dysfunction in a general obstetric population and to list risk factors. Material and Methods: In this systematic review, Patients in obstetric clinics completed the Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire (PPAQ), a validated instrument to measure physical activity, as well as the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) questionnaire to assess their knee function. To find independent associations with IKDC score and identify predictors of knee dysfunction, analyses of age, weeks of gestation, height, weight, and history of knee issues prior to pregnancy were performed. Results: A mean PPAQ score of 248 MET-h/wk, with a range of 40 to 805 MET-h/wk, was used to estimate physical activity in the study population. With no discernible differences between trimesters (7.3 percent, 6.3 percent, and 6.1 percent in the first, second, and third trimester groups, respectively), twenty (6.5 percent) women reported having a PPAQ greater than 500 MET-h/wk. Seventy-six (24%) of the women in this study reported a history of knee surgery, an injury, or other knee issue. Conclusion: A high level of activity, younger age, higher BMI, and a history of knee problems were all associated with severe knee dysfunction, which was reported by 26.1% of pregnant women. These findings might have consequences for pregnant women who want to stay active and fit during their training. Future research is advised to evaluate the need for intervention and to determine the best ways to prevent and treat symptoms in this population.
