Abstract: The incidence of placenta accreta, a potentially life-threatening obstetric condition has increased over the years. Women at greatest risk of placenta accreta are those who have myometrial damage caused by a previous cesarean delivery. Morbidly adherent placenta in the absence of risk factors is a rare entity in primigravida, and its conservative......

Key Word: Placenta accreta, Medical management, Methotrexate.

Abstract: Background. Non-communicable diseases are responsible for significant disability and death worldwide with developing countries carrying an appreciable burden, imposing a heavy socioeconomic cost on individuals, families, and health systems. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity in a semi-urban riverine community in Nigeria. Methods.......

Abstract: Background: Mycobacterium ulcerans infection (Buruli ulcer) is a debilitating disease characterized by extensive and severe destruction of the skin and subcutaneous tissue resulting in the formation of large ulcers. This necrotizing neglected tropical disease whose mode of transmission is still unknown was regarded as an emerging infectious disease by WHO in 1998. Index cases of BU were first reported in Ibadan (now in Oyo State), south-west, Nigeria.......

Abstract: Background: Three dimensional root canal filling, an indispensable condition to isolate the root canal system in endodontic therapy, cannot be achieved if the extirpated and prepared canal is not dry before obturation. The absorbent paper points are made of wood fibers, cotton fibers and sodium silicate, with great water absorption and flexibility. Absorbent paper points are used not only to dry root canals after irrigation, but also to carry antiseptic.......
