Lichen Planus Pigmentosus (LPP) is a skin condition which is chronic in nature commonly known as hype pigmentation. LPP causes dark patches on sun-exposed areas. This paper explores a case study where efficacy of homeopathy is witnessed in a depressed and hopeless female, almost confined to her home because of her facial condition. After starting homeopathic treatment, she saw incredible results, regained her confidence, and began socializing again. This study highlights how homeopathy can effectively manage LPP and improve patients' lives.

Methylene blue (MB) is a synthetic dye widely used in textile industries. This work describes the application of solar radiation to direct photolysis degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution. Experiments were conducted at room temperature to study the effects of exposure time, solution volume and MB concentration on dye degradation rates. The results show that the maximum amount of methylene blue removed is 6.8 mg/L, obtained at an initial concentration of 10 mg/L, volume of 50 mL and exposure to solar radiation for 5 hours.

A brief overview of the orthopaedic surgery division of the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits). A review of the literature from 1962 to 2023: this is one of the departments that has contributed greatly to the country, the orthopaedic community, and the world. For the past sixty-one years, the Wits Orthopaedic Surgery department has been led by seven chairs of the department. Under their guidance, the university has produced over hundreds of orthopaedic graduates, including undergraduate and postgraduate students and leaders.

Introduction: Traumatic injuries of the hand are an important aspect in the practice of the reconstructive surgeon. The objectives of finger tip reconstruction include the restoration of length, strength, position, stability, mobility, sensitivity and aesthetics of the finger. There are multiple reconstructive options for finger tip reconstruction. The objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the Atasoy VY advancement flap as a first line option for the reconstruction of fingertip defects.

Water hyacinth, also known as Eichhornia crassipes, is native to South America but has spread throughout the world to tropical and subtropical regions. These invasive plants are notorious for their rapid growth and ability to form thick mats on water surfaces, causing ecological, economic and social problems. Rapid expansion can reduce biodiversity, clog waterways and limit access to water resources for activities such as agriculture, fishing and transport. In addition, water hyacinth can be a breeding ground for disease-carrying organisms, causing health problems for nearby populations.

The new variant of equation of metabolism as “Donators (first stage of proton conductance) + membrane - redox potentials three state line system + O2 (Hemoglobin of pulmonary capillary-8-th stage, Hemoglobin of tissue-87 trillion cell surrounded capillary-9-th stage,) + ADP + Pi + (H+ + nH + memb.space - proton gradient-4-th stage) = (ATP + heat energy-5 -th stage) + H2O (5-th stage) + (nH + matrix) + CO2(second stage of proton conductance)”, which give to us the possility to speak about of existing of two forms of free protons as at first : left side of equation - Н+ membrane space – forme

Extreme values of climatic variables (winds) present challenges in terms of the stability of built structures and environmental risks. In fact, estimating the recurrence of extreme wind speeds and basic natural speeds provides essential information for the design of certain civil engineering structures, such as buildings, bridges and others, with a view to ensuring their self-stability and, ultimately, the protection of the population and their environment.

Environmental and biodiversity risks were greatly increased by toxic heavy metal pollution, The various water samples environmental with a history of heavy metal toxicity resulting from human activities or natural origin released in the environment. Ensure representative sampling from various depths and locations within the fields. Their widespread distribution in the environment as a result of their numerous industrial, household, agricultural, medical, and technical applications has sparked worries about their possible consequences on the environment and public health.

Ischemic heart disease is the most prevalent cause of myocardial infarction, a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Hyperlipidemia is a condition of abnormalincrease inserum LDL, cholesterol and triglycerides levels. The main aim of the current study is to assess the cardioprotective, anti-hyperlipidemic, and anti-oxidant properties of Vernoniaelaeagnifolia's methanolic extract.
