“…This variability is known to significantly influence treatment efficacy against Naja haje cobra bites in the Middle East. In this study, we examined the pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the lethality induced by Naja haje venom, as well as the evaluation of the neutralizing capacity of two antivenoms; the monospecific antivenom made for Naja haje only and the antivenom marketed in the Middle East and North Africa. …”

“…ABSTRACT: Repellents play a major role in reducing the risk of mosquito-borne diseases by preventing mosquito bites. The present study evaluated the mosquito-repellent activity of β-caryophyllene oxide 1% (BCO), vetiver oil 2.5% (VO), and their binary mixtures (BCO + VO (1:1), BCO + VO (2:1), BCO + VO (1:2)) against four laboratory-colonized mosquito species, Aedes aegypti (L.), Aedes albopictus (Skuse), Anopheles minimus Theobald, and Culex quinquefasciatus Say, using an excito-repellency assay system. …”

“…CASE REPORTS: The first case was a 43-year-old pregnant woman, with an unremarkable medical and surgical history, in the second trimester who presented to the Otolaryngology Clinic with a chief concern of a progressively growing lesion, measuring 0.7×0.5 cm, over the lateral right side of the tongue for the last 2 weeks after accidentally biting her tongue during dinner. The second case was a 26-year-old woman with unremarkable medical and surgical history who presented to our Otolaryngology Clinic with a chief concern of a non-painful soft fungating pink-red lip lesion 1.5×1 cm across the right lower lip growing for the last 4 months. …”
