Crohn's disease is a chronic disabling inflammatory disease affecting the entire digestive tract. The development of biotherapy, in the forefront of which are the anti-TNF alpha drugs, has led to changes in the management of this disease, particularly in terms of improving fistulising forms of the disease outside the anoperineal lesions.

The electronic cigarette is a product of common consumption which has known a remarkable commercial success. Its use is controversed by the doctors because of its toxicity, especially in the long term. A lesser toxicity of vaping compared to cigarettes is also an established fact. We report the case of a young electronic cigarette smoker, who arrived at the emergency department with a myocardial infarction. In the literature, a significant impact of electronic cigarette use on intermediate endpoints or markers of cardiovascular but it is not clear whether these changes have medium- and long-term clinical consequences. Few clinical studies have been conducted to specifically evaluate the cardiovascular effects of vaping. Thus, the electronic cigarette should never be used on a non-smoker or ex-smoker. Ideally, its use should be limited in time necessary for smoking cessation.

The main purpose of this study was to examine the influence of human resources on the implementation of strategies in commercial banks in Kenya.

The researcher used proportionate stratified random sampling technique to obtain a sample of 200 managers. Questionnaires were used to collect data. The organized data from both the qualitative and quantitative sources were entered into the computer application package SPSS after which descriptive and inferential statistics were obtained. Descriptive statistics employed frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations while inferential statistics employed Pearson (product moment) correlation coefficient and linear regression analysis. The study found a statistically significant relationship between human resources and strategy implementation at 0.05 confidence level. The study recommended that commercial banks should continue investing in human resources through strategies like recruitment and selection, training and development, reward management in order to increases chances of strategy implementation success.

Patriarchal Societies like the Igbos of south East Nigeria is characteristed by unequal positioning of male and female off springs to inheritance. The males are regarded as heirs and apparent successors to economic and social powers, the right of females in this regard has been relegated to the background. The condition follows that economic situation or poverty level of a male child could be changed for better through inheritance. The basic assumption behind this discourse then is that the inheritance rights and access to property rules among the Igbos further deepens the already poverty situation of women in the society. It is against this background that this paper focuses on examining the interface between the inheritance rights and poverty situation among women in Igboland. This paper however substantiates that with the continued practice of the customary inheritance Igbo in society. The paper proffers suggestions on possible ways to improve the lives of the women through integration of the English and Customary laws as they relate to inheritance.

Gastric ulceration is a common adverse effect of many medications. Bisphosphonates (BPs) that is used for osteoporosis, is associated with peptic ulcer manifested -in its severe state- in hemorrhage and perforation. Methyl sulfonyl methane (MSM) which is used for osteoarthritis was used to prevent BPs ulceration. Our objective was to study the effect of MSM on preventing peptic ulcer induced by Alendronate (ALN) in rats. The experiments had been done on eight white Wister rats for each group. The gastric ulcer has been induced by administration of Alendronate (20mg/kg/day) by gavage for 4 days. MSM (400mg/kg/day) has been given for the protective group for 4 days before administration of Alendronate. The gastric ulcers in rats' stomachs were examined histologically and microscopically. The ulcer index and protective index were measured, and then the statistical analyses were carried out. The results showed that the Administration of MSM before Alendronate inducing ulcer led to a reduction in ulcer index and showed significant difference comparing with morbidity group. The conclusion was that MSM (400 mg/kg/day) has a protective effect of peptic ulcer induced by alendronate.
