Worldwide, one in eight deaths is due to cancer. Projections based on the GLOBOCAN 2012 estimates predict a substantive increase new cancer cases per year by 2035 in developing countries if preventive measures are not widely applied. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), millions of lives could be saved each year if countries made use of existing knowledge and the best cost-effective methods to prevent and treat cancer. Therefore, the aim of this study is to estimate a provisional budget against cancer in low and middle incomes countries, according the GNI-PPP, the cancer incidence and the number of population. Economically country classification is determining with the Gross national income (GNI), per capita, Purchasing power parity (PPP), according the administrations of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank (WB) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Cancer incidence data presented are based on the most recent data available at IARC. However, population compares estimates from the US Bureau of the Census. The provisional budget is establishing among the guidelines developed by WHO for regional and national cancer control programs according to national economic development. Provisional budget against cancer is estimated to 86,980.024 (thousands of U.S $) for a population of 83,301,151 persons in Congo, Democratic Republic.

Purpose: This report discusses the literature review in comparison with the current case’s findings in detail as well as the indications for guided bone regeneration to be done in the same patient after a follow-up of 6 months. We reported this case due to its uniqueness in terms of the etiology, clinical and radiographic findings, and management. Method: We account a case of 24-year-old male patient who reported significant swelling in the upper right region of the mouth that slowly increased to the present size. On evaluating the panoramic radiograph, there was well-defined radiolucency seen. Result: Complete enucleation of the cyst along with the extraction of the involved teeth was done and the healing was satisfactory.

A 72 year old man presented for colostomy repair prompting epidural catheter placement for pain management. A prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) coupled with degenerative spine disease were noted prior to placement. Postoperatively, he developed shortness of breath and leg weakness. This impelled a computed tomography (CT) scan for pulmonary embolism (PE) evaluation, which revealed an epidural hematoma. Stable neurologic findings prompted conservative management. In conclusion, 1) prolongation in aPTT should prompt consideration before neuraxial procedures, 2) vitamin K deficiency is a risk factor for epidural hematoma, and 3) hematoma management should be dictated by progression of neurologic findings.

Background. The academic development becomes stronger by including the scientific results to the teaching process. The academic research project checking is a constant need from the university context. Objective. To value the behavior from the academic research project “Direct fiscal cost – benefit for the smoking in Cuba”. Materials and Methods. Was made a descriptive research from the result obtained by the academic research project “Cost – benefit direct fiscal from smoking in Cuba”. As theoric methods were used the historical – logical, the comparative and the inductive – deductive. As empiric method was used the bibliographic research. Results. The Project had have an extended scientific production. It is leasing the research about smoking economic benefits and it suggest make an extensive practice validation from the proposes in other health institutions where smoking is an important risk factor. Conclusions. The academic research project “Cost – benefit direct fiscal from smoking in Cuba” had obtained important results that show the smoking social costs in the researched population. However is leasing the description and accounting from the smoking economic benefits to estimate the cost – benefit relation. A closer relation with other health institutions might obtain present primary information and an extended practice validation.

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding occurs as a result of dysfunction of the hypothalamic pituitary ovarian axis. It is common in adolescent girls, and perimenopausal women. Proper evaluation to rule out organic causes for this bleeding is an essential part of the work up so that the proper management can applied.
