Downloaded from 1 2 Objective: Till now no available blood pressure nomograms for children and adolescents in Egypt. 3 4 5 Methods and study design: A total of 60025 Egyptian children from birth to 19 years were enrolled in this 6 7 cross sectional randomized study from December 2015 to March 2017. They were selected from diverse 8 9 geographical districts in Egypt. Healthy children who fulfilled the inclusion criteria, which included good 10 11 nutritional history, the absence of fever or documented underlying disease at the time of examination, no 12 13 evidence of hemodynamically significant illness, no antihypertensive drugs or other chronic drug 14 15 For peer review only 16 administration, were included in the study. Body weight, recumbent length (for less than 24 months), and 17 18 height (from 2 years to 19 years), blood pressure were measured using standard mercury 19 20 sphygmomanometers. 21 22 Results: Blood pressure rises with age in both boys and girls. The 90th percentiles of SBP and DBP among 23 24 25 Egyptian children were different from other ethnic population (American and Turkish children) among both 26 27 sexes. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed a positive correlation with weight and height in both 28 29 sexes (P<0.001). 30 31 Conclusion: We assumed that normal BP curves should be utilized cautiously in childhood, and it is 32 33 recommended that every population should handle their own normal standard curves to define a measured http://bmjopen.bmj.com/ 34 35 36 blood pressure levels in children.

    Book of Abstracts th The 14 ​ International Symposium on ​ Comparative Literature “Writing Across Borders” th th (13 ​ -15 ​ November 2018) ​ ​ Book of Abstracts 1 Abstracts of Keynote Speakers 2 “Why does Writing Cross Borders?” Ibrahim Abdel Maguid (Keynote Speaker - Day 1) Man's dreams and hopes as well as experiences of pain and agony have always been a resource for creative writing par excellence. Taking shape in time and space, they all ​ ​ contribute to make writing the epitome of human existence. The question of writing crossing local borders and reaching for a wider audience worldwide has never been an act of straightforwardly communicating a moment in time as witnessed by the writer; this can be better documented by a historian. Only when the writer's characters become the voice of humanity at large, can they cross social, geographical and historical borders. A literary work is nonetheless a commodity in need of effective marketing strategies/mechanisms to reach beyond borders and convey a message from some part of the world probably known through media stereotypes. Far removed from the human and literary aspects of writing as it may sound, this fact pertains to our part of the world despite the proliferating translations of Arabic literature into world languages. Even worse is the fact that inter- Arab borders may prove difficult for Arab writers to cross partly under some immature political pretext or for feigned ethical sensitivities in the age of internet where borders have been dissolved. Writing is truly an individual talent's conceptualization of human experience but for it to cross borders more issues should be attended to.

    DIRECTORY OF AVMA ECFVG® LISTED VETERINARY COLLEGES OF THE WORLD (Exclusive of the United States and Canada; as of September 7, 2021) The AVMA Educational Commission for Foreign Veterinary Graduates® (ECFVG®) does not represent this directory to be a comprehensive list of all veterinary schools in the world. The AVMA ECFVG®-listed Veterinary Colleges are not accredited by the AVMA Council on Education™ (AVMA COE®). This list includes all schools that were listed by the World Health Organization in its 1991 World Veterinary Directory and in the 1983 Pan American Health Organization publication, Diagnosis of Animal Health in the Americas. The list also includes additional schools that have come to the attention of the ECFVG for reasons related to the ECFVG certification program. Such schools are listed here only after correspondence with the national government ensures that the school is officially recognized by that government as a professional school of veterinary medicine and its graduates are qualified to practice veterinary medicine within that country. The time required to verify that the school is officially recognized is variable and depends on the country or language of communication. Sometimes, it may take a long time – weeks, perhaps, even months or longer -- to get back the necessary information about school recognition within the country of origin. Candidates interested in registering for the ECFVG certification program should plan well in advance as the time required for some aspects of the certification process is beyond

  • The History of Family Medicine in Egypt Prof. Taghreed M Farhat
    The History of Family Medicine in Egypt Prof. Taghreed M Farhat Head of Egyptian Family Medicine Association (EFMA) This paper traces our history from the mid-1970s to the present time, looks at our history in the context of the development of family medicine practice and education in Egypt. We are the product of that history and we stand on the shoulders of many who made Family Medicine possible. History does not just explain the past but also, by providing the framework for understanding the present, helps us to move forward. As Dr. Stephens, the great founder of our specialty said: "Medicine is always the child of its time and cannot escape being influenced and shaped by contemporary ideas and social trends" We will look at the birth and growth of Family Medicine teaching and practice, some of the obstacles and challenges found along the path as well as at the hopes and strategies for the future. I- A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE The 1978: Declaration of Alma-Ata proposed a set of PRINCIPLES for primary health care. As the new century began, there was a strong sense that medical practices in Egypt were far behind from those of European countries, particularly England and Germany, concerned about the state of medical education. 1976 and 1978: The need to establish more family medicine departments inside the Egyptian medical schools was much highlighted in both the first and the second Medical Education Conferences in Al-Fayoum in 1976 and 1978 respectively. These conferences were attended by members of medical syndicate, Supreme council of universities, and the Ministry of Health and Population (MOHP).The objectives of these conferences were to write job description, methods of training and teaching for general practitioners and principles of practice of primary health care.
