Abstract
This study evaluated antenatal care (ANC) services for pregnant women attending primary health care centres in Medina city, Saudi Arabia in 2009. A cross-sectional survey collected data on ANC tasks performed at visits by 394 pregnant women attending 7 clinics. ANC was assessed in 3 domains: clinical assessment (at the initial visit and return visit), health promotion and care provision. The mean duration of initial visits was 10.3 (SD 2.3) minutes and of return visits was 9.1 (SD 1.1) minutes. Overall performance on ANC tasks was fair. The significant predictors of ANC performance of tasks were: size of population served per centre; presence of more than 1 physician carrying out ANC at the centre; physician's age, mother tongue, nationality and qualifications; and woman's education and employment status. Having more physicians available for ANC in primary care centres could improve the standard of care.

Abstract
Iron deficiency anaemia is the most common nutritional disorder in the world. Pregnant women are at especially high risk of iron deficiency and anaemia because of significantly increased iron requirements during pregnancy. Iron supplementation during pregnancy has been recommended for women in the developing world, since usually no basic changes occur in the composition of the diet. This is a retrospective cohort study carried out in Al-Yamamah Hospital, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, comparing the outcome of haemoglobin levels in 308 pregnant women near term with compliance to iron supplementation during the preceding pregnancy stages. Data were collected using an interview-based questionnaire for assessment of supplementation compliance and the women were divided into three categories: strictly compliant; partially compliant; and non-compliant. Haemoglobin levels were extracted from the medical records for the first antenatal visit (before 13 weeks' gestation) and compared with the level at entrance to the study at 36 weeks' gestation. Both Epi-info 2002 version 3.2 and SPSS version 10 were used for data analysis. Our results show that 49.7% used iron supplements continuously during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy; 38.3% reported partial use and 12.0% used no iron supplements. Haemoglobin levels improved significantly only among strictly compliant pregnant women, by 0.3 g/dl; decreased among partially compliant women by, 0.36 g/dl and significantly decreased among non-compliant, by -1.4 g/dl. Factors associated with non-compliance were education with a simple linear protective effect from being non-compliant. The percentage of anaemic women increased from 29.6% in the first trimester to 34% in the third trimester. Anaemia was significantly associated with non-compliance with iron supplementation, the adjusted OR was 6.19 95% CI 2.55-15.02, p < 0.0001. Strategies to improve compliance and effective iron supplementation among pregnant women should be implemented.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Results from experimental studies suggest that tumour progression and metastasis in breast cancer are angiogenesis dependant. The College of American Pathologists has stated that further study of quantification of tumour angiogenesis is still required to demonstrate its prognostic value in breast cancer. In this study, not only the microvascular density (MVD), but also the vascular area ratio (VAR), and the vascular count in different grades of invasive ductal breast carcinoma were assessed using a pan-endothelial marker, CD34, and monoclonal antibody to CD105, by employing computer assisted morphometric measurements. In addition, quantitative expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was detected. Correlation of the vascular parameters and VEGF expression with the different grades of invasive ductal breast carcinoma was clarified. Immunohistochemical staining for the CD105, CD34, and VEGF antibodies were performed in 25 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma in King Fahd Hospital, Saudi Arabia. Normal breast tissue samples comprised 15 specimens detected at the safety margin of the malignant breast cases were collected. Positive CD34 stained blood-vessel endothelial cells were observed in all normal breast tissues. In contrast, CD105 and VEGF expression were not expressed in the normal breast ducts and lobules. Widespread staining for CD34, to a lesser extent CD105, and VEGF expression were seen in all tumour specimens with different grades. Significant differences in the vascular parameters, stained with antiCD34, were observed between normal breast tissues and invasive ductal carcinoma. In addition, the vascular parameters stained with antiCD34 and antiCD105, and the percentage of VEGF expression in the three grades of invasive ductal carcinomas showed significant differences with positive correlations. In conclusion, MVD as well as VAR are considered to reflect the final result of the tumour angiogenesis cascade. In addition, VEGF expression was found to be a useful angiogenic marker. However, few cases were VEGF negatively stained. Thus, the expression of MVD, VAR, and to a lesser extent VEGF might be reference predictors for the biological behaviour and prognosis of breast carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravascular lymphomas are diffuse large-cell lymphomas belonging to a group of high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and are generally of phenotype B. They are rare and carry a severe prognosis. Clinical polymorphism is dominated by neurological and cutaneous involvement. PATIENTS AND METHODS We report the case of an 80-year-old woman with cutaneous intravascular B-cell lymphoma as revealed by an isolated episode of febrile bilateral inflammatory lymphoedema. Following combined chemotherapy with rituximab and mini-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, oncovin and prednisone), complete remission was obtained rapidly, with no relapse at two years. DISCUSSION Diagnosis of these tumours is rendered difficult by the clinical polymorphism and multifocal nature of lymphocytic proliferations. In the present case, diagnosis was based on histology results since presentation of the disease in the form of bilateral inflammatory oedema of the lower limbs is not sufficient to establish lymphoma. Combined rituximab and polychemotherapy comprising a CHOP regimen appears to yield the best results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is safe in acute cholecystitis, but the exact timing remains ill-defined. This study evaluated the effect of timing of LC in patients with acute cholecystitis. METHODS Prospective data from the hospital registry were reviewed. All patients admitted with acute cholecystitis from June 1994 to January 2004 were included in the cohort. RESULTS Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was attempted in 1,967 patients during the study period; 80% were women, mean patient age was 44 years (range, 20-73 years). Of the 1,967 LC procedures, 1,675 were successful, and 292 were converted to an open procedure (14%). Mean operating time for LC was 1 h 44 min (SD +/- 50 min), versus 3 h 5 min (SD +/- 79 min) when converted to an open procedure. Average postoperative length of stay was 1.89 days (+/- 2.47 days) for the laparoscopic group and 4.3 days (+/- 2.2 days) for the conversion group. No clinically relevant differences regarding conversion rates, operative times, or postoperative length of stay were found between patients who were operated on within 48 h compared to those patients who were operated on post-admission days 3-7. CONCLUSIONS The timing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with acute cholecystitis has no clinically relevant effect on conversion rates, operative times, or length of stay.
