Background: Hereditary amyloidosis is a rare systemic disorder with variable organ involvement, including the liver, kidney and nervous system. Recent evidence suggests that central nervous system involvement in amyloidosis may exacerbate psychiatric symptoms via vascular and structural brain changes. Case presentation: We describe a 35-year-old woman with this condition who developed chronic affective instability, suicidality, and anxiety which were aggravated after the liver transplantation she underwent five years prior.

We report the case of a 37-year-old woman with a decade-long history of secondary infertility who presented with a large uterine mass. Radiology suggested a fibroid with cystic degeneration, but histopathology revealed a cavernous hemangioma within an intramural leiomyoma, confirmed by CD34 immunostaining.

The current rapid deterioration of air quality in most cities can be attributed mainly to ongoing urbanization. This study simulates the dispersion of atmospheric pollutants in the city of Bamako using a HYSPLIT model, taking into account a case of total suspended particulate (TSP) emission in the environment assumed to be 180μg / m3 which exceeds two times the WHO standards. Wind climatology was established using the Wind Rose Plot (WRPlot) view.

The study focused on the comparative determination of the effects of the combination of leaf extracts of Carica papaya (CP) and Vernonia amygdalina (VA) and Artemether-based combination therapy (ACTs) on Plasmodium berghei infected male wistar rats. Fifty (50) male wistar rats, weighing 100 to 150g, were allotted into 5 groups (n=7). Group 2 (negative control) was infected but not treated, groups 3-5 which were infected received 250mg/kg b.w each of CP and VA in combination and 4mg/kg b.w of the two reference ACTs.

Identification of the accused is the crucial aspect of the investigation of a crime. Without proper identification of an accused, it is virtually impossible to complete a criminal investigation. One way to identify the offender or accused particularly when he is unknown to a prime witness, would be the process of Test Identification Parade.
