On Monday, August 23, 2021, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Pfizer’s covid vaccine for general use. The legal reality is, that after general release of any drug by the FDA and under normal circumstances, this would allow physicians to prescribe and utilize the drug in Americans of any age, including children. We know CDC data documents hundreds of thousands of childhood covid cases and hundreds of deaths with rising numbers, while hopefully children are returning to school exposed to increasing risks. Although Federal laws prohibit age and disability discrimination, children and especially “at risk” children < 12 years are not being fully offered any of the treatments authorized under the emergency use authority (EUA) to mitigate the covid scourge. The Pfizer vaccine was released yesterday for Americans 12 years of a..... ReadMore

In March 2020 I wrote the protocol for stopping covid-19 with CellSonic based on the disinfective power of the machine that has been known for twenty years. The covid pandemic became government property in all countries and our proposal that noninvasive, drug fee biophysics with no known side effects was ignored by the bureaucrats panicking to find a solution to the deadly virus. It was only when the operator of a CellSonic machine in England was able to treat a friend on Tuesday, 29th June 2021 that we got the report three days later of the lady’s cure of the infection. Recommendations Those testing positive should be given a CellSonic treatment to kill the virus. In England there are testing stations set up in tents in car parks where CellSonic machines could be placed to be operated by nurses. One machine could treat five patients an..... ReadMore

Kindly consider the following query/inquiry hold in my hand the bottle of hand sanitizer I applied before I started typing this letter to the editor. The label says “kills 99.9% of germs”. Really?! I hate to burst the bubble and rain on the parade of the millions of people using hand sanitizers in this sad season of the corona virus but you have to know a secret. NOBODY HAS EVER KILLED THE CORONA VIRUS OR ANY OTHER VIRUS. EVER. If by killing you mean irrevocably taking away life so the entity never comes back. When we use insecticides on insects they die and never come back. When a pet dog is run over by a truck and dies it never comes back. We never hear it bark or see it bite again. When a soldier is shot on the battlefield and dies, his life is over. His family and friends will never see him again. Is this what we do to the corona ..... ReadMore

Traumatic brain injury as a neurological insult due to trauma is a common cause of referring to the emergency wards. There are various causes for traumatic brain injury occurrence like motor vehicle accidents, falls, blunt trauma etc. To classify the traumatic brain injury, there are various classification systems. This is a brief review on three classification systems for traumatic brain injuryIn the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) system, the patients with traumatic brain injury would be classified into three groups. Patients with mild injury have GCS scores from 13 to 15. Ones with moderate injury have GCS scores from 9 to 12 and the patients with severe injury have GCS scores which are less than 8. This scale is composed of three tests including eye, verbal and motor responses. In Marshall classification system, in Diffuse injury I, there is..... ReadMore

Dear reader, can you imagine for a moment how all fundamental forces act simultaneously and continuously in our material world? Certainly, you can’t, and no one can. And can you explain how this material world of ours does not fall apart instantly from their impact, but instead continues to exist for billions of years? Of course, you can. We humans, when confronted with indisputable facts, always consider many different possible answers, and, after long research we sometimes come to the almost correct one...... ReadMore

Ovarian, cystadenocarcinoma with an osteosarcoma component (OCS) also known as malignant mixed müllerian tumor (MMMT), is a very rare gynecological malignancy accounting for 1-3% of ovarian malignancies [1]. OCS is a mixed tumor composed of carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. The sarcomatous component may be either homologous, including endometrial stromal sarcoma, fibrosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma, or heterologous. We report a case of ovarian cystadenocarcinoma with an osteosarcoma component. A 63-year-old woman presented a tumor in the abdomen in December 2020. The tumor was restricted. Imaging findings, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, revealed a multilocular cyst tumor. Imaging also showed that the patient had massive ascites. Total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy, omentectomy, lymphaden..... ReadMore

In this article, I am going to introduce the self-review technique. In a lot of research done by me and my colleagues, this technique has reduced the symptoms of depression, increased the level of happiness, and improved the quality of life. The approach of this method is cognitive and based on Beck’s theory [1]and the philosophy of returning to self-Iqbal Lahori (Pakistani Persian poet). According to these theories, the more a person becomes aware of his inner and outer abilities, the more real and normal his/her emotional responses will be...... ReadMore

Background: About 38% of U.S. adults use prescription opioids. Opioid-related overdoses have risen in the last decade. Studies suggest that duration and type of first opioid prescribed play a significant role towards risky and chronic opioid use. Objective: The primary objective was to identify key players involved with initiation of patients on opioids. This study also identified patient characteristics most likely to receive care from influential opioid providers as opioid initiation interventions could be directed to such physicians. Design/Participants: A cohort of patients with incident opioid use were identified using Arkansas All-Payer Claims Database from 2013-2018. A social network comprising provider as nodes and referrals as edges was constructed based on healthcare utilization 180 and 90 days preceding incident opioid u..... ReadMore

Rationale: A novel COVID-19 with severe acute respiratory syndrome had emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019. The presence of takotasobo cardiomyopathy in COVID-19 patients is an extremely rare and commonly recognized post severe stress. The changeable bifascicular block is also very rare to be present after COVID-19 with the severe acute respiratory syndrome. Interestingly, the combination of COVID-19 pneumonia with an apical takotasobo cardiomyopathy and changeable bifascicular block has a worthy risk impact on both morbidity and mortality of COVID-19 patients. Patient concerns: An elderly carpenter male COVID-19 pneumonic patient was admitted to the critical care unit with dyspnea and tachypnea post-severe emotional stress with evidence of acute myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, and changeable bifascicular block. Diagnosis: Api..... ReadMore

Objectives: Abdominal wall pathology, such as inguinal and umbilical hernias, is one of the most prevalent pathologies in the field of General Surgery, with interventions being carried out more and more within outpatient Major Surgery programs. Nevertheless, this pathology is not free from postoperative morbidities or complications, such as postoperative pain, which sometimes requires a longer hospital stay. We present our initial experience using incisional anesthetic catheters in patients who underwent an inguinal or umbilical hernia and analyze various postoperative parameters related to pain and the functional limitation it causes in the patient. Material and Methods: We intervened a consecutive series of 20 patients with an average age of 60 years with abdominal parietal defects, 15 with a diagnosis of inguinocrural hernia, an..... ReadMore

In this paper, we consider the logical basis for ethical acts based on sound moral arguments. We consider the authority of the Church over the course since the Enlightenment. We show that virtue is the logical outcome using AT math. We show mathematically that there is such a thing as soul energy (SE) that makes up part of the total energy of the universe. Human beings have a soul and science proves it. It is important because many people today have no faith in religion; their faith is in science. Nothing could be more stunted and costly to their wellbeing temporally and eternally. We also consider why there are 16 personality types in Jungian Psychology. We see that the personality is based on stress tolerance. Some seek pleasure; others avoid pain. This is the underlying force beneath the various personality types. It is important..... ReadMore

The ease with which cancer is stopped by CellSonic surprises oncologists and delights patients. Cancer is an electrical fault. The behaviour of the cells is corrected by changing the voltage to that of healthy cells, a process called electroporation. There is no surgery and no drugs. This is biophysics, not biochemistry. There are no side effects, and the replication of mutating cancer cells is stopped immediately. Then starts the healing of the damage caused by cancer and the usual problems in patients unfortunate to have been treated with chemotherapy and radiation. The cancer in the lungs has special difficulties because the tissues converted from malign to benign must be removed. Lung surgery is seldom an option. CellSonic sells to specialist clinics where the patients pay for treatments. These clinics are too busy to tell CellS..... ReadMore

Citrullinemia is an autosomal recessive genetic condition that falls under the spectrum of urea cycle disorders. The defective genes reduce the activity of enzymes needed to process nitrogen effectively. Two types exist: type I (neonatal onset) occurs when the defective arginosuccinate synthase enzyme fails to complete the third step of the urea cycle by converting citrulline and aspartate to L-argininosuccinate......
