Physical and behavioural problems from extended usage of electronic devices are issues among primary school children. This study is aimed to investigate the prevalence of physical and behavioural complaints arising from the electronic device usage and to identify the potential factors that predicted the complaints.

General pustular pruritus psoriasis (GPPP), also known by the name impetigo herpetiformis, is a rare type of pustular dermatosis which typically occurs in pregnant women during the 3rd trimester and usually regresses after birth. The disease is characterized by acute abruption of erythematous plaque with a disseminated spread of sterile pustule, and may progress to sepsis and even death. Notably, it also carries obstetric complications and is associated with an increase in neonatal morbidity and stillbirth. We present a case report of a patient, and discuss the importance of proper management in this rare condition.

Low back pain (LBP) is a common presentation in general practice. Clinical workup must exclude sinister underlying diseases. Treatment of central LBP is difficult given the numerous treatment options available.

To assess safety and tolerability and explore pharmacodynamics and efficacy of omiganan in external anogenital warts (AGW) and vulvar high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL).

Lyme disease typically presents with viral-like symptoms and a pathognomonic rash. With disease progression, symptoms of nervous system involvement usually include facial nerve palsy and meningitis, but other atypical neurologic manifestations have less commonly been documented.

A 16 years old girl presented with gradual foot pain after running 2 kilometers. Conservative treatment that consisted of rest and high dose of analgesia had no effect. An MRI scan revealed a partial tear of the abductor hallucis muscle with diffuse edema in the compartment. Under general anesthesia compartmental pressure was measured. The involved compartment's pressure was 130 mm/hg while the contralateral foot measured 10 mm/hg. Immediate fasciotomy was performed with instant pain relief. No analgesics were needed following surgery. Compartment syndrome usually develops following trauma. In unusual cases the syndrome can appear due to other causes, such as muscle tear and present with different clinical signs and rates of presentation. Exertional compartment syndrome presents in the pediatric population, but can rarely present in the foot. High clinical suspicion and awareness can help the diagnosis in challenging cases.

Lateral epicondylitis, more commonly referred to as 'tennis elbow', is a common condition seen in general practice. It effects approximately 4-7 per 1000 individuals. Despite this, the aetiology and pathophysiology remain poorly understood. Often presenting as lateral elbow pain, the differential diagnosis includes entrapment syndromes, cervical radiculopathy, osseous pathology and inflammatory conditions. Though in 90% of cases the condition is self-limiting, persistent symptoms can be difficult to manage.

To compare antidepressant-related adverse events (AEs), suicidality and AE-related discontinuation in double-blind, placebo-controlled trials of pediatric patients with OCD and anxiety disorders treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs).

The number of nontraumatic dental pain emergency department (ED) visits continues to substantially rise in frequency every year. While there are several methods for treating dental pain, an inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is a non-narcotic alternative that provides instantaneous relief of severe pain.
