Aim. In this study, we compared the efficacy of sucralfate suspension with chlorhexidine as an oral rinse in patients with recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) in terms of pain relief and healing time.Materials and Methods. The subjects with a complaint of recurrent oral aphthous ulcers less than 1 cm in diameter on the first day of the occurrence of the ulcer and between 20 and 40 years were included in the study. Seventy patients completed the study. The patients were randomized into two groups as SCH group and CHX group. Changes in pain scores, healing time, and side effects of the treatments were evaluated.Results. The mean value of pain scores on the days after the treatment from the first day to the seventh day was significantly higher in CHX group than SCH group (P≤0.05). On the seventh day after the treatment, the ulcers were completely reepithelialized in 23 patients in SCH group and in 19 patients in CHX group. The difference was statistically significant (P≤0.05). In SCH group, the mean healing time of ulcers was1.97±1.56days whereas it was2.80±3.00days in CHX group. The difference was statistically significant (P≤0.05). No side effects were recorded in either of the groups.Conclusion. Topical sucralfate suspension is an easy, safe, inexpensive, and effective treatment option for RAS to obtain pain relief and shorten the healing time of oral ulcers.

Introduction: Cigarette smoking is a prime risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Chronic smoking results in autonomic dysfunction leading to increased cardiovascular risk in smokers. The present study was planned to study the effect of smoking on the Cardiovascular Autonomic Functions among smokers. Materials and Methods: Fifty male subjects who were in the age group of 25 to 45 years. They were grouped into 25 smokers and 25 non-smokers. The participant subjects were selected among the staff members, residents and the patients from the routine OPD in SVIMS. Prior to study, they were informed about the procedure and the purpose of the study tests and written consents were obtained from them. The Cardiovascular Autonomic Function Tests were assessed by using a POLYGRAPH which was available in the department. Results and Conclusion: After applying the ‘t’-test for the difference between the two sample means, it was observed that there was a highly significant difference between the mean values of the BMI(i.e.p<0.01) and the para-sympathetic function tests among the smokers and the non – smokers(i.e.p<0.00). The Resting Heart Rate had significantly increased and the Deep breathing difference, the postural tachycardial index (Response to standing) and the Valsalva Ratio had significantly decreased in the smokers as compared to those in the non – smokers. After applying the ‘t’-test for the difference between the two sample means, it was observed that there was no significant difference between the mean values of the Postural hypotension test (i.e. p>0.05) and that there was a highly significant difference between the mean values of the Sustained handgrip test in the smokers and the non – smokers (i.e. p<0.00).

Abstract: Indonesia is a tropical country with the second largest biodiversity in the world after Brazil. Jatropha curcas (Jatropha curcas L.) was believed as a pain reliever (analgesic). This study was aimed to prove the analgesic effect of Jatropha curcas leaf extract on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus). This was an experimental study using hot stimulus method in the form of temperature of 65°C. Subjects were 15 male Wistar rats divided into 5 groups. Group 1, the negative control group; group 2, the positive control group given paracetamol 40 mg/kgBW; and 3 treatment groups (groups 3, 4, and 5) given Jatropha curcas extract in several doses (300 mg/kgBW, 600 mg/kgBW, and 1200mg/kgBW). Observation of Wistar rat respons (licking and jumping) was performed for 1 minute at minutes -30, 60, 90, and 120 after treatment. The results showed that the mean values of response against heat decreased in accordance to time and reached the lowest values at minute 120, except group 5 (the extract dose of 1200mg/kg BW) which reached the lowest value at minute 90. Overall, the lowest mean value was found in group 4 (the extract dose of 600mg/kg BW). Conclusion: Jatropha curcas (Jatropha curcas L.) leaf extract had an analgesic effect on Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus).Keywords: Jatropha curcas L., Rattus norvegicus, analgesic Abstrak: Indonesia merupakan negara beriklim tropis dengan keaneka ragaman hayati terbesar kedua di dunia setelah Brazil.

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of explicit affective strategy instruction on the speaking performance of Freshmen English majors at Faculty of Education, Suez University, Egypt. The design of the study is a pre-post quasi experimental one. The instrument is a pre/post speaking performance test (designed by the researcher). Participants were eighty Freshmen English majors, randomly divided into two groups: a control group (N=40) and an experimental one (N=40). During the experiment, the experimental group was explicitly taught some affective strategies (lowering anxiety, encouraging yourself and monitoring emotions) while the control group was taught using the traditional method. All participants were tested using the pre/post speaking performance test before and after the intervention. The difference between the post test&rsquo;s mean scores of the control and experimental groups were calculated using Independent Samples t-test and the difference in the mean scores between the pre- and post tests of speaking performance was calculated for each group separately using Paired Samples t-test. A significant difference was found between the post test&rsquo;s mean scores of the control and the experimental groups in favor of the experimental group. Moreover, a significant difference was found between the mean scores of the pre and post test of the experimental group in favor of the post test. It was concluded that participants&rsquo; level of speaking performance significantly improved after receiving the explicit affective strategy instruction.
