The empty sella syndrome (ESS) is an asymptomatic radiological syndrome, affecting 6% of post-menopausal women and can be seen in all ages. The results were similar with other studies in many respects, such as a wide age spectrum including children, and the occurrence of diabetes insipidus in 5.97%. The results of our study were discordant with other studies with respect to hyperprolactinemia which reached 58.2% in our study (in other studies did not exceed 33.7%). No concurrent cases of secretory pituitary adenomas were found (studies refer to an incidence of acromegaly and Cushing’s syndrome in 2.6% of ESS for each). We did not record CSF rhinorrhea nor were visual disturbances seen in our cohort. Patients received symptomatic treatment and none were referred to surgery.

Research summary
تتناول هذه الدراسة متلازمة السرج الفارغ (ESS) في مستشفى الأسد الجامعي، وهي متلازمة إشعاعية غير عرضية تؤثر على 6% من النساء بعد انقطاع الطمث ويمكن رؤيتها في جميع الأعمار. شملت الدراسة 67 مريضًا تم تشخيصهم بـ ESS الأولي، حيث تم استبعاد حالات ESS الثانوي. كان متوسط عمر المرضى 29.3 عامًا، مع نطاق عمري من 7 إلى 53 عامًا. كانت النسبة الأكبر من المرضى من الإناث (76.11%) مقارنة بالذكور (23.88%). من بين المرضى الذين تقل أعمارهم عن 18 عامًا، كان هناك 10 حالات تأخر في النمو، و5 حالات من خلل في الغدة النخامية الأمامية، ووجود السرج الفارغ في التصوير بالرنين المغناطيسي. كانت السمنة موجودة في 80.39% من النساء و25% من الرجال. كانت الصداع موجودة في 53.73% من المرضى. أظهرت النتائج تباينًا مع الدراسات الأخرى فيما يتعلق بفرط برولاكتين الدم، حيث وصلت نسبته إلى 58.2% في هذه الدراسة مقارنة بـ 33.7% في الدراسات الأخرى. لم تُسجل حالات من الأورام النخامية الإفرازية أو تسرب السائل النخاعي أو اضطرابات بصرية في هذه الدراسة. تلقى المرضى علاجًا عرضيًا ولم يُحال أي منهم إلى الجراحة.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تقدم هذه الدراسة نظرة شاملة ومفصلة حول متلازمة السرج الفارغ (ESS) في مستشفى الأسد الجامعي، وتسلط الضوء على العديد من الجوانب الهامة مثل التوزيع العمري والجنساني والأعراض المصاحبة. ومع ذلك، يمكن توجيه بعض النقد البنّاء لتحسين الدراسة. أولاً، كان من المفيد توفير مزيد من التفاصيل حول منهجية البحث وكيفية اختيار العينة لضمان تمثيلها الدقيق للسكان. ثانيًا، كان من الممكن تضمين مقارنة أكثر تفصيلًا مع الدراسات السابقة لتوضيح أسباب التباين في النتائج، خاصة فيما يتعلق بفرط برولاكتين الدم. وأخيرًا، كان من الممكن تقديم توصيات أكثر وضوحًا للعلاج والمتابعة لتحسين إدارة المرضى في المستقبل.

The studying points are the correc t diagnosis, histological types, histological grade and pathological stage of the disease, in order to achieve the best treatment and prognosis. The morphological examination of bladder biopsies were done routinely, the total biopsies were 250, obtained from 194 patients (172 male, 22 female). The low grade tumor were 41, and high grade 149.although the early stage diagnosis were 138, and the late stage 66, always we must detect the lesion early for the best life after the treatment. may be useful in the future study and detect the reason of predominance the male gender in bladder tumor, also we hope, that we can discover the role of inflammation in arising the neoplasm of bladder.
Introduction: As nursing develop with regard to science, knowledge & practice and nursing responsibilities increase, critical thinking- the ability to question and make rational decisions- becomes even more important. Whereas, critical thinking requi res that all thoughts and actions be examined objectively, in patient care almost all actions require decision making, and problem solving. Critical thinking is an essential element in decision making which involves choices, and problem solving which requires analysis. Through critical thinking skills, a nurse manager can become a transformational leader. She can challenge the routine nursing practices now, develop a more robust understanding of any problem underlying causes, and develop her leadership skills as well as develop more creative solutions when using critical thinking. Although, critical thinking skills are more important but there were few studies both English and Arabic and there was no study in Syria concerned with critical thinking skills that must used by nurse mangers to do their role effectively, for that this study was conducted and aimed to assess critical thinking skills of nurse managers in Al- Assad university hospital and Al- Wattany hospital in Lattakia. The study was conducted in Al- Assad university and Al- Wattany hospitals in Lattakia. Whereas, The study sample consisted of 21 nurse managers , and 80 nurses from both hospitals.

Compliance of health care workers to adhere to correct hand hygiene is reported to be poor in many countries although the techniques involved in hand hygiene are simple. This study yielded interesting findings regarding knowledge and behavior among a sample of 30 nurses in Al-assad university hospital in Lattakia. Nurses received a self administered paper questionnaire on knowledge and practices of hand hygiene at their workplace and were observed during their work. Only (14 %) of participants had very good knowledge about hand hygiene, with a significant difference in the level of knowledge according to the level of education as respondents with university degree were more likely to correctly identify the proper way of hand hygiene compared to those nurses who have a lower level of education. On the other hand, the overall hand hygiene compliance among nurses is 30%. Some of the key parameters associated with noncompliance have been clearly identified. Hand washing hygiene is a cheap and primary infection control procedure. Therefore, the study suggests some improvement by continuous education during shifts, seminars and posters, ensuring the availability of adequate hand washing utilities like soap, water taps, drying tissues and reducing work load to improve nurse to patient ratio.
