Abstract	Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate students' perception of the educational climate in a medical school in Dammam, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). The difference in the perception of preclinical year students and clinical year students was also evaluated. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 2 Results: Out of 518, 238 students participated in the study; participation rate of 45.9%. The average DREEM score was 112.38 with a SD of 22.4. Students' perception of atmosphere got the highest score (27.1 ± 6.7) of the five DREEM subscales. The 3 Conclusion: Perception of medical students about the educational climate was more positive than negative. Although the DREEM score and its subdomains showed a positive educational environment, students still mentioned some problematic areas that need to be addressed. Findings of this study could encourage other medical colleges in the KSA to focus on weak areas and address the issues raised by students, especially clinical year students.

Abstract	This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of partial edentulism, RPD type, design, and components and their frequency of use by patients at the prosthodontic clinics of the College of Dentistry, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, Dammam, Saudi Arabia. The prepared surveys, laboratory authorization forms, and images of the RPD metal frameworks on casts were used for data collection. Two calibrated investigators studied the digital photographs to identify the Kennedy classification, type of RPD, major connector, clasp assembly, and other details. Data was collected and analyzed statistically. The results showed that the most common class of partial edentulism was Kennedy class I, whereas class IV was the least (

Abstract	From 1975 to 1985, 202 patients with hypopharyngeal cancer were seen at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC). The endoscopic investigation showed that 28.3% of these patients had postcricoid carcinoma; 19.85% had pyriform fossa carcinoma and 52.9% had involvement of both sites. The pathological diagnosis of all cases was squamous cell carcinoma type. The majority of the patients (62.98%) had T4 lesions, which showed a late presentation to KFSH&RC. Information related to survival was available for a smaller number of patients due to many "lost-to-follow-up" cases. The overall median survival time was 8.5 months (1-110 months). The survival rate for each site was calculated, as well as the staging of the disease and treatment modality used. It appeared that pyriform fossa (median 21 months) had the best survival rate. In addition, the earlier the lesion was detected and the more aggressive the treatment applied, the better the survival rate. Fifty percent of the patients receiving radiation therapy and surgery had a five-year survival rate. Factors other than smoking and/or drinking should be looked for in our community as predisposing to this disease in our population.

Abstract	Ten cases of malignant mesothelioma were diagnosed and treated at the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre over a ten year period from 1977 to 1987. Seven of these cases were referred from the Southern Province and were clustered in the Al-Baha and Najran districts. In only one case (a plumber from Taif) was there the likelihood of occupation exposure. None of the patients had interstitial changes or pleura plaques on chest x-ray. Epidemiological studies are warranted to establish the etiology of mesothelioma in the Southern region of Saudi Arabia.

Abstract	During 2013-2014 a field experiment was conducted at experimental area of Faculty of Agriculture under Lasbela University of Agriculture, Water and Marine Science, Uthal, Lasbela to evaluate the influence of various row spacing on the yield and yield components of Raya Anmol and Faisal Canola under coastal climatic conditions of Lasbela. Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with factorial arrangement having 3 replications was used. Experiment comprises two canola varieties, C 1 = Raya Anmol, C 2 = Faisal Canola at 3 row spacing distances RS 1 = 30 cm, RS 2 = 45 cm and RS 3 = 60 cm respectively. Result showed that yield and yield contributing traits are significant. It was concluded that seed yield of C 1 (Faisal Canola) was better as compared to that of Raya Anmol. Row spacing (RS 3 = 60 cm) yielded more crop canopy and the highest number of pod per plant, pod length and seed yield under agro climatic condition of Lasbela as compared to other densely arranged row spacing.

Abstract	Background: Bio-enteric intragastric balloon (BIB) insertion is gaining popularity for weight reduction in obese patients. We evaluated the efficacy, tolerability, and safety of BIB in the treatment of obesity. Methods: A total of 173 Saudi obese patients [mean+/-SD age 34.5 +/- 11.6 years, 58 (33.5%) were men] who underwent BIB (InaMed Corporation, California, USA) insertion were followed up clinically, biochemically, and endoscopically for 6-12 months. The mean+/-SD baseline body weight, excess weight, and body mass index (BMI) were 123.5 +/- 39.6 and 68.9 +/- 40.0 kg and 46.7 +/- 14.1 kg/m(2), respectively. Associated dietary control, exercise, and medical treatment were used in 67 (38.7%), 60 (34.7%), and 3 (1.7%), respectively. Results: BIBs were safely and successfully inserted in 15.1 +/- 6.2 min, filled with 626.2 +/- 41.7 ml methylene blue solution, removed after a period of 189.7 +/- 68.3 days, within 14.1 +/- 6.3 min. BIB was not tolerated for 6 months in 33 (19.8%) patients. Body weight and BMI at 6 and 12 months postinsertion were significantly reduced to 112.5 +/- 35.7 kg and 43.1 +/- 13.1 kg/m(2), and 110.7 +/- 34.5 kg and 42.3 +/- 12.6 kg/m(2), respectively (p < 0.01 versus baseline by one-way ANOVA). Furthermore, the mean absolute weight loss and mean percentage excess weight reduction (EWR) at 6 and 12 months post-BIB insertion were 13.5 +/- 13.5 kg and 19.5 +/- 21.8, and 14 +/- 18.5 kg and 18.0 +/- 25.8, respectively. No mortality or major complications has occurred. EWR of >or=25% occurred in 24.1% and 30.1% of patients at 6 and 12 months postinsertion, respectively. Conclusion: BIB is a safe, simple, and potentially efficient procedure that is well-tolerated by the majority of patients.

Abstract	Twelve females with cystosarcoma phyllodes of the breast were referred to King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC) between 1980 and 1990, representing 0.8% of breast cancer patients seen during this period. Median age was 45 years (range 16 to 65 years). Seven patients (58%) were premenopausal. All patients presented with breast mass, which measured >10 cm in 58% of them. The median duration of symptoms was 15 months (range two to 174). Neither axillary lymph nodes nor distant metastases were seen at presentation. Surgery was the cornerstone of primary treatment (wide local excision in three and mastectomy in nine). Two patients received adjuvant chemotherapy and locoregional irradiation. All patients had malignant tumors histologically. Of the four tumors assayed for hormonal receptors, one was positive for estrogen and progesterone receptors. At a median follow-up of 17 months (range two to 77), four patients had relapsed; one died at 19 months and the projected five year survival is 83%. This limited data supports the observation that malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes is a distinctive clinicopathological entity of female breast cancer with a different natural history from carcinoma of the breast. Our survival results are similar to reported experience from the literature.

Abstract: ... of biliary complications after liver transplantation in the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research ...

Abstract	Background and aim: The biliary tract has been referred to as the "Achilles heel" of liver transplantation. The aim of this study was to document the frequency, clinical presentation and management of biliary complications after liver transplantation in the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center (KFSH&RC), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Methods: The liver transplant clinic at KFSH&RC has registered and followed 220 patients (150 male and 70 female patients; age 40.6 +/- 18.6 years; pediatric 33, adult 187) during the period from 1987 to June 2003. A total of 235 transplants were carried out on these patients. Cadaveric liver transplants had been carried out on 202 patients, non-heart beating liver transplant in three patients, live donor liver transplants in 11 and split transplant in four. Biliary reconstruction was duct-to-duct anastomosis in 147 patients and Roux-en-Y in 73. Biliary complications were suspected on clinical and biochemical parameters and confirmed using imaging techniques. Results: Forty patients (18.2%) developed 53 biliary complications. These included bile leak in 16, strictures in 25, calculi in eight, and sphincter of Oddi dysfunction and possible recurrence of primary sclerosing cholangitis in the donor duct in two patients each. Bile leaks were observed in the early postoperative period (median period 30 days, range 1-150 days, 95% confidence interval [CI] 8-51). Leakage occurred at the anastomotic site in 13 patients. Patients presented with bilious drainage (n = 6), abdominal pain at T-tube removal (n = 3), fever (n = 2), sepsis (n = 1), dyspnea (n = 1) and abnormal liver tests (n = 3). Eleven patients had intra-abdominal bilious collections. Two patients were treated conservatively, eight patients had ultrasound-guided aspiration of biloma, five had biliary stenting at endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and two patients needed surgery. There were four deaths, two of which were related to bile leak, one patient was left with permanent external biliary drainage and four patients had biliary strictures in the follow-up period. Biliary strictures occurred at a median period of 360 days (range 4-2900 days; 95% CI 50-670) after the transplant. Hepatic artery thrombosis caused biliary strictures in three, while 21 strictures were localized to the anastomotic site. Biliary strictures presented with elevated liver tests in five patients, progressive cholestasis in five, cholangitis (with septicemia in five) in 11, abdominal pain in two and acute pancreatitis in three patients. Repeat sessions of endoscopic or percutaneous dilatation and stenting (mean sessions 4.4/patient, range 3-7) were attempted in 20 patients to relieve strictures, with success in only nine patients. Seven patients had surgery. Four patients with biliary strictures died. Biliary calculi developed late in the follow-up period and had the appearance of biliary casts in five and sludge in three patients. Eleven (27.5%) patients with biliary disease died compared with 35 (19.4%) patients without biliary disease. Conclusions: Biliary complications occurred in 18.2% of patients after liver transplantation and included biliary leak and biliary strictures with or without calculi. Management involved a combination of endoscopic, radiologic and operative procedures. Biliary complications caused considerable morbidity and mortality in liver transplant patients.
