Abstract
Our research focused on assessing essential oils (MSEO) and aqueous extracts (MSAE) derived from M. subtomentella leaves, with a primary focus on evaluating their properties. From 1 kg of leaves, we successfully obtained 18 mL of essential oil. Upon conducting GC/MS analysis, we identified eleven compounds within the oil, collectively accounting for 100% of the constituents identified. Notably, the predominant compounds in the leaf oil were p-Menth-48) -en-3-one (50.48%), 9-Ethylbicyclo (3.3.1) nonan-9-ol (10.04%) (E)-3,3-Dimethyl-delta-1, alpha-cyclohexaneacetaldehyde (8.53%), and D-Limonene (7.22%). Furthermore, utilizing HPLC/DAD, we explored the phenolic profile of MSAE, extracted through decoction. This analysis revealed the presence of fifty-eight compounds, with five major components collectively constituting 61% of the total compounds identified, rosmarinic acid as the major one. We evaluated the antimicrobial effectiveness of the MSEO against ten different strains, observing its notable efficacy against A. Niger (MIC = 0.09%), P. digitatum (MIC = 0.5%), and G. candidum (MIC = 1%). However, the essential oil demonstrated comparatively lower efficacy against bacteria than fungi. In contrast, the MSAE did not exhibit any antimicrobial activity against the tested strains. Regarding antioxidant activity, the aqueous extract displayed a significantly higher antioxidant capacity than the essential oil, which exhibited relatively lower antioxidant activity. The IC50 values were determined to be 0.04 ± 0.01 mg/mL, 0.17 ± 0.01 mg/mL, and 13% ± 0.01% (V/V), for ascorbic acid MSAE and MSEO, respectively. We used a computational method called molecular docking to investigate how certain plant compounds affect antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal activities. This involved analyzing the interactions between these compounds and specific protein targets known for their roles in these activities.

Terrible triad injury of the elbow: A PROCESS-compliant surgical case series from Eastern Morocco. Ann Med Surg (Lond) 2022; 78:103914. [PMID: 35734695 PMCID: PMC9207080 DOI: 10.1016/j.amsu.2022.103914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [What about the content of this article?

Abstract
Introduction The terrible triad of the elbow (TTE) is a lesion associating a dislocation of the elbow, a fracture of the radial head, and a fracture of the coronoid process, with a high potential of complication. The treatment is based on the restoration of bone lesions and external capsular ligament repair. The systematic repair of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) is still debated in the literature. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and functional results of the surgical treatment in a real-world series from Easter Morocco. Patients and methods This was a retrospective study of 6 cases of TTE operated by isolated external approach or combined approach (internal or anterior) of the elbow in the department of Traumatology-Orthopedics of the Mohammed VI University Hospital (Oujda Morocco), over a period of 7 years from 2013 to 2020. Radial head and coronoid process fractures were classified according to the Mason and Morrey-Regan classifications, respectively. The following clinical parameters were evaluated: Mayo Clinic Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and arc of mobility in flexion-extension and prono-supination. Results 6 male patients treated between May 2013 and December 2020 were included. The median follow-up was 48 months. All patients had frontal and lateral standard X-ray of over and under joints, and computed tomography (CT)-scan was delivered for 5 cases. The elbow dislocation was posterolateral in five cases, and posteromedial in only one patient. Radial head fractures were classified as type I in one case, type II in two cases, and type III in three cases. Coronoid fractures were type I in three cases, type II in one case, and type III in two cases. At the last follow up, the mean MEPS, Quick DASH, and VAS was 81, 28, 0.8, respectively. The mean arc of mobility in flexion was 120° and it was deficient by 20° in extension. In addition, the mean arc of mobility in protonation was 80°, while in supination it was 75°. Regarding complications, we noticed an instability of the elbow on valgus in a single case, elbow stiffness with heterotopic ossification in a single case, ulnar nerve damage in a single case during medial collateral ligament anchoring, and elbow hygroma in one single case. Conclusion The surgical management of TTE can provide good and long-term functional results after restoration of the stabilization of bone structures and the lateral ligament complex, without the need to repair the medial collateral ligament. The terrible triad of the elbow is a complex injury affecting both the bone and ligaments. A complete and accurate management of this entity during any trauma of the elbow is required. A careful clinical and radiological assessments must be performed during complex elbow trauma. The main objective of any treatment is to provide a stable elbow and avoid early arthrosis.
