wire-Induced Stent Crumpling Remedied by bail-Out Crush Stenting; a Case Report
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We report a-56-year old army pensioner who presented initially to a peripheral hospital with acute ST-elevation inferior myocardial infarction thrombolysed with streptokinase. He was subsequently referred to the National Heart Institute (Institut Jantung Negara, Malaysia) for coronary revascularization. Coronary angiogram revealed an ectatic right

Chronic Diseases and Association with Abnormal Body Mass Index (Bmi)among Adults in Kg. Bukit Sekilau, Kuantan
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A cross – sectional study was conducted in Kampung Bukit Sekilau, Kuantan, Pahang with the aim to measure the prevalence of chronic diseases (Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Artery disease) among adults population age 18 and above and factors associated (abnormal body mass index (BMI), age, gender and family history). Simple random s

Gram Negative Infection Following Plating of Tibia Resulted with Exposed Bone and Implant
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We report four cases of gram negative infection following plating of the tibia that resulted in expose bone and metal implant which were treated in our center from March 2003 till December 2008. The incidence of Gram negative implant related infection is increasing and probably has poorer outcome. Treatment of this condition requires both bone and

Modified Anatomical Reconstruction for Symptomatic Chronic Acromioclavicular Joint Disruption: Surgical Technique and Case Reports
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Acromioclavicular joint (AC) separations are common injuries seen in orthopedics and sports trauma practices; and accounting for 9% of all injuries to the shoulder girdle. Management of AC joint problems is dictated by the severity and chronicity of the injury as well as the patient's needs and expectations. This technique is designed io stabil

Profile of Parkia Speciosa Hassk Metabolites Extracted with Sfe Using Ftir- Pca Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A rapid identification, classification and discrimination tool, using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA), was developed and applied to determine the profile of the Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) of Parkia speciosa seeds under various temperature and pressure conditions (313, 323, 33

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fractionation of Pithecellobium Jiringan Jack Seed Compositions Using Fast Gas Chromatography Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The volatile oil components of ground Pithecellobium jiringan seeds were fractionated using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) at 80C and 6,000 psi. The extract was collected every 20 min and the yield was successively extracted into five fractions; thus, the total extraction time was 100 min. The yields (volatile oils) were analyzed with fast g

Surface Modification of Titanium Alloy Through Electrical Discharge Machining (Edm)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents investigation on the alloying capability of Cu-TaC electrode during electrical discharge machining (EDM). The electrode produced through powder metallurgy technique was used in machining alpha-beta titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) under different machining conditions. EDM experiments were conducted with distilled water as dielectric f

A Case of Successful Thrombolysis in Pulmonary Embolism with Tenecteplase During Peripartum Period
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Tenecteplase is a recognized thrombolytic therapy for myocardial infarction. It is also increasingly used in massive and submassive pulmonary embolism. Thus far, there had been 22 patients with pulmonary embolism treated with tenecteplase. However, none of the patients was treated during peripartum period. We report its use in a 35-year-old multipa

Primary Pigmented Nodular Adrenocortical Disease
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Primary pigmented nodular adrenocortical disease (PPNAD) is a rare adrenal tumour causing corticotrophin-independent Cushing's syndrome. It occurs mainly in children and young adults. The histological examination is characterised by small pigmented micronodules on the adrenal cortex. The diagnosis is most often seen in patients with Carney Comp

Atrial Myxoma: Histological Confirmation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Atrial myxoma is uncommon, with an overall prevalence in the developed world of 0.02%.1 It is often undiagnosed until complications such as cardiac death or stroke occur. The incidence of primitive tumours of the heart at autopsy is between 0.0017% and 0.03%, and of these 50% are myxomas. 12 We describe a case of left atrial myxoma which was only d
