despite the high prevalence and significant burden of mental disorders, they remain grossly under-diagnosed and undertreated. In low-income countries, such as Mali, integrating mental health services into primary care is the most viable way of closing the treatment gap. This program aimed to provide a mental health training intervention to rural general practitioners (GPs), to organize community awareness activities, and to evaluate the impact on mental health knowledge and through the number of new patients diagnosed with mental disorders and managed by these general practitioners.
a pre-test/post-test design and the monthly monitoring of the number of new patients diagnosed with mental disorders by the trained GPs were used to evaluate the effect of the training interventions (two face-to-face group training workshops followed by individual follow-up supervisions) and of the community awareness activities.
the mean knowledge score of the 19 GPs who completed the initial 12-day group training raised from 24.6/100 at baseline, to 61.5/100 after training (p<0.001), a 150% increase. Among them, sixteen completed the second 6-day group training with a mean score increasing from 50.2/100 to 70.1/100 (p<0.001), a 39.6% improvement. this website Between July 2018 and June 2020, 2,396 new patients were diagnosed with a mental disorder by the 19 GPs who took part in the program.
despite limited data regarding the effect of the community awareness component at this stage, the findings from this study suggest that the training intervention improved GPs' knowledge and skills, resulting in a significant number of new patients being identified and managed.

myoma is commonly diagnosed in our hospital. It can be accidentally discovered or discovered due to metrorrhagia. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the association between the size of myomas and the circumstances under which they are detected and between the location of myomas and the occurrence of bleeding.
we conducted a cross-sectional study including women aged 18 or older undergoing ultrasound at the University Teaching Hospital Bogodogo and who were diagnosed with at least one uterine myoma over a period of 6 years from January 2012 to December 2018. Binary logistic regression was used to assess metrorrhagia while multinomial logistic regression was used to assess circumstances under which they were detected and size.
we assessed 1049 women, among whom 2294 had myomas diagnosed on ultrasound. Each woman had two myomas. The average age of patients was 37 years. Women with myomas larger than 50 mm accounted for 29.7% (n=311). There was a strong association between interstitial, subserosal and submucosal myomas and the occurrence of metrorrhagias (p<0.001). A size less than 50 mm was significantly associated with fortuitous discovery (p=0.016) but not with revealing metrorrhagia (p=0.084). Women who had submucosal myomas (OR=3.13; CI95%= [1.45-6.76]), interstitial and submucosal myomas (OR=2.24; CI95%= [1.05-4.78] as well as interstitial, subserosal and submucosal myomas (OR=3.57; CI95%= [1.88-6.76]) were at higher risk of developing metrorrhagia. Myomas measuring less than 50 mm had twice the odds of revealing fortuitously (RRR=1.80; CI95%= [1.25-2.62]) or by metrorrhagia (RRR=1.75; CI95%= [1.04-2.95].
metrorrhagia is more common in women with myomas in specific locations.

One model to increase the number of providers is to task-share roles traditionally filled by clinicians are shared with lay workers who have received task-specific training. Separately, there has been much recent interest in the possible implications of artificial intelligence (AI) on healthcare. This paper proposes that, by combining the task-sharing model with AI, it is possible to design an Emergency Unit (EU) that shares the tasks currently undertaken by physicians and nurses with lay providers, with the activities of lay providers guided and supervised by AI. The proposed model would free emergency care clinicians to focus on higher-acuity and complex cases while AI-supervised routine care is provided by lay providers. The paper outlines the model for such an implementation and considers the potential benefits to patient care, as well as considering the risks, costs, effect on providers, and ethical questions. The paper concludes that AI and healthcare workers can operate as a team, with significant potential to augment human resources for health in sub-Saharan Africa.Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign epithelial tumor which mainly affects young women. link2 It usually occurs in the anterior portion of the upper jaw. Diagnosis can be clinically suspected in patients with cyst formation associated with retained tooth but histopathological confirmation is required. This study involved two patients aged 13 and 37 years, with no previous history, presenting after the occurrence of a swelling on the jaw and mandible. Anatomopathological examination of these lesions showed adenomatoid odontogenic tumor. This study highlights the anatomoclinical features, outcome and treatment of this type of tumor.Fibrous dysplasia is a genetic and rare bone disorder affecting the young subject. Its pathophysiology involves genetic mutations leading to defective skeletal development with fibrous and medullary proliferations. Cephalic extremity is involved in one third of cases. We here report a case of surgically treated fibrous dysplasia of the frontal and ethmoid sinuses. The study involved a 31-year-old man presenting with chronic holocranial headaches. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed voluminous bilateral hyperdense expansive process in the frontal and ethmoid sinuses. Surgery was performed on the basis of functional signs and imaging data. Anatomopathological examination of bone fragments confirmed the diagnosis of fibrous dysplasia. Fibrous dysplasia is rare and characterized by slow disease progression. In the absence of a consensus on therapy, surgery remains the treatment of choice for unifocal forms.The first cases of infection caused by new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus were reported in China in December 2019. This disease is called COVID-19 and has been declared as a pandemic by the WHO three months after its outbreak (in March 2020). In most cases it results in non-severe infectious syndrome associated with different degrees of benign symptoms (fever, cough, myalgia, headache and potential digestive disorders). SARS-CoV-2 can cause severe lung diseased and, sometimes, it results in death. Data on its consequences during pregnancy are limited. Currently, data on SARS-CoV-2 infection are reassuring and don´t indicate a higher risk of infection or a superimposed risk of complications in pregnant women compared to the general population. A few exceptional cases of maternal mortality have been reported, but they occur, most often, in patients with other diseases, in particular pre-eclampsia. This retrospective study highlights the clinical, biological and evolutionary materno-fetal data collected in the COVID-19 Military Field Hospital of Benslimane, Morocco, over a period of 3 months, from 21st July to 21 October 2020.
lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are infections involving the trachea, primary bronchi and lungs. People with LRTIs typically experience coughs as the primary symptoms; however, shortness of breath, weakness, fever and fatigue may be coupled with the cough. It is common among the aged, children under five and the immune-suppressed. Persons with symptoms suggestive of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) may have tuberculosis, other respiratory tract infection or co-infection of tuberculosis and other respiratory pathogens. This study aimed to identify the presence of pathogens in sputum of suspected tuberculosis cases and their antimicrobial resistance patterns.
this was a retrospective study conducted from September 2018 to November 2019 at Tamale Public Health Laboratory. Sputum or gastric lavage samples were collected from persons with suspected clinical presentations of TB and/or LRTI. These samples were cultured using standard microbiological protocols and antimicrobial susceptibility test performedrd generation cephalosporins (cefotaxime and ceftriaxone).
this study highlights the need to test individuals with classical symptoms of LRTIs for other bacterial infections other than TB only. Sputum culture is recommended for all suspected tuberculosis cases to provide accurate laboratory diagnosis to LRTIs and mitigate unnecessary use of antimicrobials.

Patients with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are at increased risk of infections, in particular when they have active disease and are on immunosuppressive treatment. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical, biological and radiological features of three patients with COVID-19 associated with chronic IBD as well as their management and outcomes. The study was conducted at the Hassan II University Teaching Hospital in Fes, Morocco over a 3-month period. We assessed all patients with disease onset. All patients had mild symptoms or were asymptomatic. link3 No changes or delays in treatment regimens occurred and none of patients developed severe COVID-19. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test results were positive in all patients. Radiological examinations were conducted. Chest scanner showed ground-glass opacities in one case. Treatment was based on hydroxychloroquine with azithromycin. Outcome was good in all cases. This preliminary report suggests that patients with chronic IBD aren't at higher risk of developing COVID-19 compared to the general population.
