Check out The Best Multilingual & Bilingual Sites For Math, Social Studies, & Science
'Every Teacher Is A Language Teacher' is Part Two in my Education Week Teacher series on teaching English Language Learners in content classes.
Many teachers of "content" classes (mainstream classes with some English Language Learners in them) face challenges each day. My book has have a chapter on the topic, and Judie Haynes has written a whole book on the subject.
Here are choices for The Best Sites For Learning Strategies To Teach ELL's In Content Classes:
Content Instruction for ELLs is a great resource from Colorin Colorado.
That page includes a particularly useful article titled Preparing an Engaging Social Studies Lesson for English Language Learners.
Trend Watch: A Spate of Research Awards on STEM and ELLs is by Mary Ann Zehr at Ed Week. Her post contains several excellent links to resources.
Here's an excellent Science lesson plan using the Picture Word Inductive Model. Here's a fairly decent Social Studies one using the PWIM.
What Can a Mathematics Teacher Do for the English Language Learner? is from SEDL.
Though it's not specifically geared towards teaching ELL's, this document provides an excellent review of using inductive learning techniques in Science. I've written a lot in my book about how I believe, and research demonstrates, that teaching inductively can be very effective with all students, including ELL's.
Great Storify On Teaching English Language Learners
David Deubelbeiss has created an excellent slideshow sharing modifications teachers can make for English Language Learners in the classroom.
Supporting English Language Learners In Content Classes
Mathematics in English is an interactive from Engames.
Six Strategies for Teaching ELLs Across the Content Areas is by Judie Haynes.
12 Ways to Support ESL Students in the Mainstream Classroom is by Jennifer Gonzalez.
Primary Sources, the Library of Congress and English Learners is from Colorin Colorado.

Jameson was and will forever be an American Hero who gave his life to save others. He will never be forgotten.
Even now, my heart aches for Donna at this great loss of her beloved son.
Praying that Spc Lindskog's family will find comfort at the dedication of the memorial garden tomorrow and in the years ahead.

Congratulations to whomever is responsible for MAPS.
Your screw ups will end up killing someone very soon if you don't fix it.
You there in Appleland have no idea of the consequences of someone believing your maps, then ending up on an impassable track, 200km from help, in a desert in the Australian outback, when they should be on a nice sealed hi speed highway.
This almost happened to me when MAPS tried to send me to Cobar via Ivanhoe.
Luckily I checked my spare GPS and a map.
Had I followed MAPS I would have been stranded on the track in 43 c heat for at least 2 days before the road re-opened.
Correct route was up the wide, sealed, high speed Kidman Way..300 km less and no washed out road..
Get your sh1t together before you kill someone!
Cheers, J.

A fire station that burned down in Norfolk did not have a sprinkler system installed, a senior officer has revealed.
Norfolk's deputy chief fire officer Roy Harold told BBC News that the fire service should have followed its own advice.
Eight fire trucks were sent to the scene after police officers who were working nearby Downham Market fire station reported the blaze and at around 12:30am.
The fire reportedly started in the bay of the station, and destroyed its £250,000 engine which has since been replaced, as well as other equipment that was destroyed.
Homes nearby were evacuated for a short period of time, but no one was hurt by the fire.
Watch manager Kim Scotney said: "The rest of the crew are dumbfounded. It hasn't quite sunk in properly, but at the end of the day nobody was hurt."
Mr Harold told the broadcaster: "Normally we go to other people's fires, but tonight we had to go to our own.
"I think there is a fire safety message there for us. This building's relatively new, but it wasn't sprinklered.
"If it'd been fitted with sprinklers, we wouldn't be here today chatting about this because the fire would've been put out very, very quickly automatically.
"We now ask all new building developments to consider sprinklers very strongly," he advised.
"We've lost the fire station but we haven't lost the cover," said Mr Harold.
A new fire station could cost about £1.5m, he added.
Now the building has been declared safe, an investigation into what began the blaze has started.
Norfolk's Chief Fire Officer, Nigel Williams, said: "Our priority today is to provide full fire cover for the people of Downham and I am pleased that this has been achieved very quickly."
Dan Roper, Norfolk County Council cabinet member for public protection, told BBC News: "Although incidents like this are very rare, we have contingency plans in place to deal with emergencies such as this.
"This event reminds us that nobody is immune when a fire breaks out."
Norfolk's chief fire officer, Nigel Williams thanked police for their help.
"In the future, we will be looking into the potential to sit down with colleagues from Norfolk Constabulary and discuss future arrangements which may be eligible for some sort of funding from central government," he said.

1. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Chris Cox Dec 23, 2011 4:58 PM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)Your onOne plugins are missing one of their DLLs (or possibly another third party plugin set).
2. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
SandraChung Dec 24, 2011 5:56 PM (in response to Chris Cox)I'm also having this problem, and have reinstalled my OnOne photo essentials. It doesn't do this all the time, notably after the first time I start the program while holding crtl/alt/shift , wiping my preferences, load, shut it down, start it up again, all is well, until the next time it decides to throw out these errors.
I get one or more of these errors, the latest time I started it, got two.
The procedure entry point ONImageCreateWithPrams2 could not be located in the dynamic link library ONCore2.dll
The procedure entry point ONTileCreateWithParams could not be located in the dynamic link library ONCore2.dll
But when I click Ok ok ok, program starts up fine, and the OnOne PhotoEssentials and all the tools with it are there and functional. Also, this is only happening with PSE v10, not v9.
3. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Matthew A Kraus Dec 25, 2011 6:56 AM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)Thanks for all the responses. I found some guidance at Adobe "Troubleshoot plug-ins (Photoshop CS5 and CS4)" at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/409/kb409aas.hti.
Basically I diabled all of my plugins one by one and found ultimately the culprit and it is OnOne Perfect Resize (formerly Genuine Fractals). The Plug-ins folder has a subfolder a folder for Perfect Resize3, I disable the file "GFFilter.8li". Now I do not get that pesky error message, but needless to say the program doesn't work. I'm going to call OnOne Monday and see what they say.
Thanks everyone,
Matthew Kraus

5. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Matthew A Kraus Dec 25, 2011 9:43 AM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)Yes I did use their installer. I downnloaded the current version from ther website and installed it from my desktop.
For the "fix to get rid of the error message", I went to the folder: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Perfect Resize 7.0 Professional Edition.plugin
I tried disabling all the files and the only I could find that was the culprit was GFFilter.8li.
Any thoughts on how to keep the message from popping up without having to either uninstall the entire Perfect Resize program or disable the GFFilter.8li file? Both of those "fixes" keeps the message from popping up, but does not allow me to use Perfect Resize.
Matthew Kraus
6. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Chris Cox Dec 25, 2011 10:46 AM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)The fix is going to be installing PerfectResize correctly -- if the installer isn't working, then you need to contact OnOne so they can help you fix that.
7. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Matthew A Kraus Dec 25, 2011 2:55 PM (in response to Chris Cox)Thanks. That's my plan tomorrow.
8. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Noel Carboni Dec 25, 2011 7:01 PM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)A shot in the dark: Have you ever copied any plug-ins from your older version of Photoshop, or have you defined a custom Extra Plug-ins Folder in the preferences?
9. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Matthew A Kraus Dec 26, 2011 12:03 PM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)Thanks for taking a shot. No, I've never copied plugins, all my plug ins are fresh installs. And I've never made a custom Extra plugins Folder. All the plugins are in the one plugins folder.
I tried to contact OnOne, but they are closed today. My guess is they will be closed for the rest of the week. I'll keep trying, but I expect I won't be able to connect with them till next week. Will post their answer and hopeful resolution when I speak with them.
Thanks for all your help[.

10. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Matthew A Kraus Dec 28, 2011 7:17 AM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)Spoke with OnOne Software yesterday. They were very nice and aware of the error message. Apparantly there is a conflict between Perfect Resize and Perfect Effects and they haven't worked out the fix yet. I had Pefect Resize previously installed, but in retrospect the problem began when I recently installed Perfect Effects. They kindly gave me copy of their combined product Perfect Photo Suites 6 which includes Perfect Reize and Perfect Effects as well as a couple of other plug-ins, but this combined program doesn't have the conflict that the separate programs have. That fixed it.
Thanks for all your help and thanks slso to OnOne SOftware.

11. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
rog_photo Dec 30, 2011 1:27 PM (in response to Matthew A Kraus)I suddenly started to get this. It appears that I tried (accidentally) to reinstall the OnOne 6.2 updater, and now I get this error. One thing that bothers me about the updater is that when it runs, there are no messages (or very few messages) on the Install Progress window - makes you wonder if it is working or not, but it appears to complete OK.
It did look, at first, as though these all worked OK with no CS5 startup error. Further, even aftrer the error, all the OnOne Plugins appear to be working OK (I have not tested thoroughly, but they all start up and shut down as normal). So I am not sure what is causing the issue.
I have also installed both HDR Expose 2 and HDR 32 Float 2 from Unified Color Technology (the HDR company that OnOne partnered with) as well as SilverFast 8 demo version. Over the course of the next couple of days, I will uninstall SilverFast, and possibly 32 Float and Expose, just to see if that clears the issue. If it still persists, then I will wait for an OnOne fix. They are usually pretty good at support, and I'll be patient, as they deserve some time off over the holidays (and I have no pressing work in progress).
12. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
rog_photo Dec 30, 2011 4:09 PM (in response to rog_photo)More Info ... (wasted a whole lotta time that I should not have to, if only the products and plugins that work with Photoshop would play nice together. GRRRRR!!!)
I reversed everything I installed in the past 2 days, plus Perfect Suite as follows
Uninstalled, in order ...SilverFast 8 demo version, UCT's HDR 32 Float 2, UCT's HDR Expose 2, and OnOne Suite 6.0.2. After all that, I tried starting Photoshop and no error.
(BTW ... the error I receive is that QtGui4.dll can not be found ... no idea what this is or why it's missing - anything on the web so far has not been helpful.)Whew!!! My CS5 installation is intact. BUT: A word of warning to anyone contemplating this course of action ... I almost "lost" my ability to license the OnOne Suite after reinstallation, but I was lucky. Make sure you "Deactivate" each of these products before uninstalling (in the Help Menu) because failure to do so may invalidate your activation key. Even so, I make no promises that even if you do deactivate, you may still not be able to reactivate. You should be able to restore the ability to activate if you call or email the manufacturer's support team (OnOne, UCT, LaserSoft) but they will likely be out till Jan 3, so be careful if you need the software between now and then.
I then reinstalled the full version of Perfect Suite 6.0.2. That is, instead of installing 6.0 + the 6.0.2 update, I installed the full version of 6.0.2 from scratch. When I started CS5 64-bit (I no longer use 32-bit), it worked fine, with no error message at all. So far so good. If this is all you have installed, and are a valid license holder of OnOne Suite, this may work for you. You have to poke around at the OnOne web site to find the full version, but it is there and it may work for you.
Next, I reinstalled UCT's HDR Expose 2 and started CS5 ... the problem returned. I uninstalled Expose 2, and back to normal - no problem. Whew!!!! So, it seems that in my system, the culprit is Expose 2. I'll be sending an email to them and we'll see what they have to say. Again, I'll post anything I find here.
13. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Chris Cox Dec 30, 2011 4:09 PM (in response to rog_photo)Qt is a GUI toolkit/app framework from Nokia.
One of the plugins must be using Qt for their user interface, and their installer (or uninstaller) goofed.
14. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
rog_photo Dec 30, 2011 4:20 PM (in response to Chris Cox)Thanks, Chris. Yup, that was one of the things I found. I'll be chasing down UCT because that is the product that seems to be causing the issue with me. But Owl Orphange? Really? I'll admit, it does get your attention.
BTW ... found a lot of instances of QtGui4.dll installed on my system ... Elements 8, Lasersoft's SilverFast, Topaz, OnOne Suite 6, Alien Skin (all plugins), and Unified Color Tech all use it, both 32 and 64 bit libraries. There is some consistency of file size within a single manufacturer's version, but absolutely no consistency among manufacturers' versions. So, not really clear what's happening, but at least there is something for the support techs to work on.
15. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
Chris Cox Dec 30, 2011 4:24 PM (in response to rog_photo)As far as I know, the OWL Orphanage message comes from an error handling routine in a third party plugin.
You can try disabling one plugin group at a time to find which one is missing the library. (just change the first character of the folder name to ~ )
16. Re: Owl Orphanage: Photoshop.exe - Entry Point Not Found
rog_photo Dec 30, 2011 5:58 PM (in response to Chris Cox)I've narrowed it down to the new versions of Unified Color's HDR Expose 2 and 32 Float 2. I have uninstalled them, the error message goes away. I install either one or both of them, the error message reappears. I uninstall again, message goes away.
I've sent them a description and some debugging info so they ought to be able to fix it up. To your point above, it seems that their installer probably isn't behaving and installing what it requires in the location it requires it to be in.
We'll start there and see what happens.

On this episode of the last show podcast I create a rabbit hole of my own. That I fall down, and end up going on a 10 soliloquy about Run The Jewels. Well, it wasn't actually 10 minutes, but I open the show talking about them.
I also talk about the Global Citizen Festival. Beyonce, Eddie Vedder, Ed Sheran, Sting, Common, and Coldplay performed. Some of them performed together, and most of them weren't good.
About 30 minutes in I get into OutKast, and why their music will live forever.
I close the show talking about the Texas high school football players that hit a referee during a football game.

… Read MoreNFL may make me lose respect for Coldplay
It's rumored that the NFL has selected their group of finalists to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. Among the finalists to perform is Coldplay (there are also some other people in the group of finalist, but they're not worth mentioning. The most they can get is a footnote here1). Which on the surface seems great. I mean its Coldplay. There one of the biggest rock groups in the world. Also they still have all their motor skills, unlike the recent super bowl performers. You may not like Coldplay, but if the alternative is Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band. You're probably taking the lesser of two evils. I like Bob Seger just as much as the next black kid that grew up in the suburbs, but after Turn the Page. The song book gets kind of thin2. You have to embrace the fact that the acts appear to be getting younger.… Read More

"If this person can walk into the Kroger in Charlottesville with a loaded weapon, can he walk into the store where the governor is shopping or where the attorney general is shopping?" he asks.
Yes he can. I guess Girard missed the part about what he did being LEGAL/ Was it foolish, in my opinion, yes, but not illegal. "What was the necessity of carrying it in there and alarming mothers, fathers and their children?" Roberts says. "And it alarmed us. It alarms law enforcement." So Lt. Roberts, a 30 year veteran is afraid of citizens legally having and carrying guns? Are there any other Constitutional rights that scare him? Perhaps free speech? Perhaps he should find other work. |

I don't hunt, but I do own multiple guns. I practice at a range to stay fluid and accurate. Does that make me a bad person? Not in my opinion. Gun control is hitting what you aim at!
My guns have harmed or killed less people than the Kennedy family's cars and golf clubs. Ban the Kennedy family from reproducing! Perhaps Lt. Ronnie Roberts should go back to the police academe and learn what is legal in Virginia! Then, he might not be so sacred of the citizens he is sworn to serve! |

Unless the store has a sign saying "NO GUNS ALLOWED" the man has a right to carry. It IS dumb, but legal. The more crime that is out there, and the more the government wants to take away our constitutional rights, the more of this you will see.

Chronic lower limb ulcers constitute a major public health problem of great important all over the world and contribute significantly to high morbidity and long-term disabilities. There is paucity of information regarding chronic lower limb ulcers in our setting; therefore it was necessary to conduct this study to establish the patterns and outcome of chronic lower limb ulcers and to identify predictors of outcome in our local setting.
This was a descriptive prospective study of patients with chronic lower limb ulcers conducted at Bugando Medical Centre between November 2010 and April 2012. Ethical approval to conduct the study was sought from relevant authorities. Statistical data analysis was done using SPSS version 17.0 and STATA version 11.0.
A total of 300 patients were studied. Their ages ranged from 3 months to 85 years (median 32 years). The male to female ratio was 2:1. The median duration of illness was 44 days. Traumatic ulcer was the most frequent type of ulcer accounting for 60.3% of patients. The median duration of illness was 44 days. The leg was commonly affected in 33.7% of cases and the right side (48.7%) was frequently involved. Out of 300 patients, 212 (70.7%) had positive aerobic bacterial growth within 48 hours of incubation. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (25.5%) was the most frequent gram negative bacteria isolated, whereas gram positive bacteria commonly isolated was Staphylococcus aureus (13.7%). Twenty (6.7%) patients were HIV positive with a median CD4+ count of 350 cells/μl. Mycological investigation was not performed. Bony involvement was radiologically reported in 83.0% of cases. Histopathological examination performed in 56 patients revealed malignancy in 20 (35.7%) patients, of which malignant melanoma (45.0%) was the most common histopathological type. The vast majority of patients, 270 (90.0%) were treated surgically, and surgical debridement was the most common surgical procedure performed in 24.1% of cases. Limb amputation rate was 8.7%. Postoperative complication rate was 58.3% of which surgical site infection (77.5%) was the most common post-operative complications. The median length of hospital stay was 23 days. Mortality rate was 4.3%. Out of the two hundred and eighty-seven (95.7%) survivors, 253 (91.6%) were treated successfully and discharged well (healed). After discharge, only 35.5% of cases were available for follow up at the end of study period.
Chronic lower limb ulcers remain a major public health problem in this part of Tanzania. The majority of patients in our environment present late when the disease is already in advanced stages. Early recognition and aggressive treatment of the acute phase of chronic lower limb ulcers at the peripheral hospitals and close follow-up are urgently needed to improve outcomes of these patients in our environment.
Chronic lower limb ulcers Patterns Treatment outcome Predictors of outcome TanzaniaBackground
Chronic ulceration of the lower limb constitutes a major public health problem of great important all over the world and contributes significantly to high morbidity and long-term disabilities[1]. It is a stressful disease to those affected as well as their family and the community in general, and its impact on hospital resources is great due to prolonged hospitalization, high cost of health care, loss of productivity and reduced quality of life[1–3]. Lower limb ulceration presenting late may end up being treated by limb amputation and is associated with increased risk of recurrence and malignant change[3].
Globally, the prevalence of chronic lower limb ulcers in the community has been reported in literature to range from 1.9 to 13.1%[1–3]. In developed countries, chronic ulceration of the lower limb affects approximately 2% of the population[4]. In the United Kingdom, the prevalence of chronic lower limb ulcers in the adult population is 1% and the prevalence in the more than 65 years age group is 3–5%[4, 5]. In the United States of America, approximately 6,000,000 new lower limb ulcer cases are reported each year and in Sweden, 4–5% of the population over the age of 80 years presents with this pathology. The annual cost for treating chronic lower limb ulceration patients globally is estimated at some $25 million[6, 7].
In Tanzania, chronic lower limb ulceration continues to be one of the leading causes of morbidity and long term disabilities. The disease tends to affect the young, reproductive age group. Observation at Bugando Medical Centre shows; chronic lower extremity ulceration is the single commonest indication for admission reported in the surgical wards and the majority of patients present late with advanced disease[8]. The etiological patterns of lower extremity ulceration in most developing countries have been reported to differ from that in developed countries. While, most of lower limb ulceration in the Western population is related to vascular diseases such as venous and arterial disease; trauma, malignancies, diabetes mellitus and infections are the most common causes in developing countries[2, 9, 10].
The effective treatment and outcome of lower limb ulceration is highly dependent upon establishing the etiology of the ulceration and the identification of other associated conditions that may have an adverse effect on healing[11].
The majority of chronic lower limb ulcers are preventable and have a multifactorial etiology, therefore understanding the etiological pattern of this condition in our local setting will provides information that is important for accurate diagnosis, prediction of outcome and may help in hospital resource allocations and establishment of prevention strategies as well as treatment protocols[12].
The aim of this study was to describe the patterns and treatment outcome of chronic lower limb ulcers in our local setting and to identify factors predicting the outcome. The study provides basis for establishment of treatment guidelines as well as prevention strategies.
Study design and setting
This was a descriptive prospective hospital-based study of patients with chronic lower limb ulcers carried out at Bugando Medical Centre (BMC) in Northwestern Tanzania between November 2010 and February 2012. BMC is located in Mwanza city along the shore of Lake Victoria in the northwestern part of Tanzania. It is a tertiary care and teaching hospital for the Catholic University of Health and Allied Sciences- Bugando (CUHAS-Bugando) and other paramedics and has a bed capacity of 1000. BMC is one of the four largest referral hospitals in the country and serves as a referral centre for tertiary specialist care for a catchment population of approximately 13 million people from Mwanza, Mara, Kagera, Shinyanga, Tabora and Kigoma regions.
Study subjects and procedures
The study included all patients with chronic lower limb ulcers of all age groups and both genders seen in the surgical wards and surgical outpatient clinics of BMC during the study period. Patients who failed to consent for the study, treatment (e.g. limb amputation) and HIV testing were excluded from the study.
Recruitment of patients to participate in the study was done at the Accident and Emergency department, surgical outpatient clinic and in the surgical wards. Patients were screened for inclusion criteria and those who met the inclusion criteria were offered explanations about the study and requested to consent before being enrolled into the study. Convenience sampling of patients who met the inclusion criteria was performed until the sample size was reached. The diagnosis of chronic lower limb ulcers was made by clinical history and physical examination and chronic lower limb ulcers was defined as defect in the skin on the lower extremities that remains unhealed for at least four or more weeks. Pus or pus swabs were obtained from the ulcer and transported to the laboratory within an hour of collection. In the laboratory, the specimens were registered in the log books and processed as per standard operative procedures. Bacterial identification was done using an in house biochemical panel[13]. Antibacterial susceptibility testing to various antibiotics was performed using disc diffusion methods as previously described[14, 15]. In addition, blood was taken from all patients for random blood sugar testing and CD4 enumeration in HIV positive patients. HIV test was done using national algorithm of rapid test. Mycological investigation was not performed due to logistic problems. Biopsies from chronic lower limb ulcers were taken under sterile technique and specimens were transported in a formalin solution to the histopathology laboratory for processing.
All recruited patients were managed accordingly. The authors ensured that the study patients were receiving the appropriate treatment and supportive care as prescribed by the surgeon. Patients were followed up until discharge or death. After discharge patients were followed up at our surgical outpatient clinic for up to six months.
Data were collected using a pre-tested coded questionnaire. Data administered in the questionnaire included; patients characteristics (e.g. age, sex, premorbid illness, history of smoking and use of immunosuppressive drugs), causes of chronic lower limb ulcers, clinical pattern, investigations, treatment modalities and postoperative complications. Length of hospital stay (LOS) and mortality were recorded at the end of study period.
Statistical data analysis
Statistical data analysis was done using SPSS software version 17.0 (SPSS, Inc, Chicago, IL) and STATA version 11.0. Data was summarized in form of proportions and frequent tables for categorical variables. Continuous variables were summarized using means, median, mode and standard deviation. P-values were computed for categorical variables using Chi – square (χ2) test and Fisher's exact test depending on the size of the data set. Independent student t-test was used for continuous variables. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine predictor variables that are associated with outcome. Post-operative complications were entered into univariate and multivariate analysis after been categorized into presence or absence of post-operative complications. LOS was arbitrarily categorized as ≤14 and > 14 days. A p-value of less than 0.05 was considered to constitute a statistically significant difference.
Ethical consideration
Ethical approval to conduct the study was obtained from the CUHAS-Bugando/BMC joint institutional ethic review committee before the commencement of the study. Informed consent was sought from each patient before being enrolled into the study.
Fifty-four (18.0%) patients presented with history of premorbid illness such as diabetes mellitus in 32 (59.3%), chronic pulmonary diseases in 8 (14.8%), hypertension in 6 (11.1%), peripheral vascular diseases in 4 (7.4%) and congenital cardiac diseases and obstructive jaundice in 2 (3.7%) patients each respectively. In this study, sixty-eight (22.7%) patients had history of cigarette smoking. There was no history of immunosuppressive drugs use or radiotherapy.

Out of 300 patients with CLLUs, 212 (70.7%) had positive aerobic bacterial growth within 48 hours of incubation. Of these, 10 (4.7%) patents had polymicrobial growth. Pseudomonas spp. (25.5%) and Proteus spp. (21.2%) were the most common bacteria isolated, while the least isolated bacteria were Enterobacter spp (2.8%) and Enterococcus spp (1.4%). Forty-one (19.3%) bacterial isolates were found to be Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL) producers (i.e. resistant to first, second, third and fourth generation cephalosporins). Methicilin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was detected in 23 out of 29 (79.3%) Staphylococcus aureus isolates.
In this study, twenty (6.7%) patients were HIV positive. Of these, 6 (30.0%) patients were known cases on ant-retroviral therapy (ARV) and the remaining 14 (70.0%) patients were newly diagnosed patients. Their CD 4+ count, available in 15 patients, ranged from 180 to 480 cells/μl (median = 350cells/μl). A total of two HIV patients (13.3%) had CD4+ count below 200 cells/μl and the remaining 13 patients (86.7%) had CD4+ count of ≥200 cells/μ.
Plain x-rays of the affected limbs were performed in 235 (78.3%) patients. Of these, 195 (83.0%) patients had abnormal x-ray findings including associated fractures, chronic osteomyelitis, bone tumors and others in 144 (73.9%), 47(24.1%), 3 (1.5%) and 1 (0.5%) patients respectively.
Doppler ultrasound of the affected limbs was done in 203 (67.7%) patients. Of these, only seventeen (8.4%) patients had abnormal Doppler ultrasound findings.
A total of 56 histopathological examinations were performed. Of these, 20 (35.7%) had a histopathologically proven malignancy, of which malignant melanoma was the most common histopathological type in 9 (45.0%) patients. This was followed by Kaposi's sarcoma in 5 (25.0%), squamous cell carcinoma in 4 (20.0%), neurofibrosarcoma and liposarcoma in 1 (5.0%) patient each respectively.

In this study, thirteen patients died giving a mortality rate of 4.3%. The causes of death were complications of diabetes mellitus (5 patients), HIV infection (4 patients) and advanced malignancy (2 patients). The cause of death was not established in 2 patients.
Out of the two hundred and eighty-seven (95.7%) survivors, 253 (91.6%) were treated successfully and discharged well (healed). Thirteen (4.5%) patients were discharged with permanent disabilities resulting from lower limb amputation and the remaining six (2.1%) patients were discharged home advised to continue with daily dressing at their nearby health facilities. Thirteen (4.5%) patients were treated as outpatients and two (0.7%) patients discharged themselves against medical advice.
In this review, chronic lower limb ulcers were in the third decade of life and tended to affect more males than females, with a male to female ratio of 2:1 which is comparable with other studies in developing countries[16, 17]. Our demographic profile is in sharp contrast to what is reported in developed countries where the majority of the patients are in the sixth decade and above[17–19]. Male predominance in this age group may be due to their increased susceptibility to trauma which was found to be the major etiological agent of chronic lower limb ulcers in this study.
The presence of pre-morbid illness, such as diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, arteriosclerosis, peripheral vascular disease, heart disease, and any conditions leading to hypotension, hypovolaemia, edema, and anemia has been reported elsewhere to have an effect on the outcome of patients with chronic lower limb ulcers[20, 21]. Pre-morbid illnesses influence the healing process as a result of their influence on a number of bodily functions[20–23]. In the presence study, diabetes mellitus was the most common premorbid illness accounting for 59.3% of cases which is agreement with other studies in developing countries[21, 22, 24]. Diabetes mellitus is associated with delayed cellular response to injury, compromised cellular function at the site of injury, defects in collagen synthesis, and reduced wound tensile strength after healing. Diabetes-related peripheral neuropathy, reducing the ability to feel pressure or pain, contributes to a tendency to ignore pressure points and avoid pressure relief strategies[25].
In the present study, cigarette smoking was reported in 22.7% of cases which is in keeping with other studies[26, 27]. Cigarette smoking has been reported to have an impact on wound healing through impairment of tissue oxygenation and local hypoxia via vasoconstriction[28]. Tobacco smoke has high concentration of carbon monoxide, which binds hemoglobin, forming carboxyhemoglobin. Carboxyhemoglobin binds to oxygen with high affinity and thereby interferes with normal oxygen delivery to hypoxic tissues[29].
The etiological pattern of chronic lower limb ulcers have been reported in literature to vary from one part of the world to another depending on the prevailing socio-demographic and environmental factors[2, 9]. In Western societies, most chronic lower limb ulcers are due to vascular diseases, whereas in developing countries, trauma, infections, malignancies and poorly controlled diabetes remain the most common causes of chronic lower limb ulceration[2, 9, 10]. In the present study, traumatic ulcers secondary to road traffic accidents were the most common type of chronic lower limb ulcers accounting for more than sixty percent of cases, which is in keeping with other studies done in developing countries[9, 10, 20, 21]. High incidence of traumatic ulcers secondary to road traffic accidents may be attributed to recklessness and negligence of the driver, poor maintenance of vehicles, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and complete disregard of traffic laws.
In agreement with other studies in developing countries[3, 24], the majority of patients in the present study presented late to hospital with advanced and complicated chronic lower limb ulcers which may end up being treated by limb amputation with increased risk of recurrence and malignant change. Late presentation in this study may be attributed to poor economic capabilities in cost shared healthcare systems, inadequate knowledge of self-care and socio-cultural reasons. Other contributing factors for late presentation include attempts at home surgery, trust in faith healers, poor management of acute lower limb ulcers and delayed referral in most health centers and peripheral hospitals.
As reported in other studies[30, 31], the leg was the most frequent anatomical site affected in our series and the right side was frequently involved. We could not find the reasons for this anatomical site distribution.
The microbiological profile of chronic ulcers of the lower limbs has application to general principles of treatment as well as institution-specific guidelines for management[32]. In the present study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most frequent gram negative bacteria isolated, whereas gram positive bacteria commonly isolated was Staphylococcus aureus. Similar bacterial profile was reported by Lim et al.[32]. The study also found that most of the pathogens were multiply resistant to the commonly prescribed antibiotics such as Ampicillin, Augmentin, Cotrimoxazole, Tetracycline, gentamicin, erythromycin, and Ceftriaxone. Similar antimicrobial susceptibility pattern has been reported previously[33]. These findings reflect the widespread and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, coupled with poor patient compliance and self treatment without prescription among African patients[32, 33]. The majority of gram negative isolates were sensitive to Meropenem while gram positive being sensitive to Vancomycin; this could be explained by the fact that these antibiotics are relatively rare in the hospital and are more expensive so they are rarely misused.
The prevalence of HIV infection in the present study was 6.7% that is relatively similar to that in the general population in Tanzania (6.5%)[34]. High HIV seroprevalence among patients with CLLUs was reported in a Zimbabwean study[35]. HIV seropositive patients have been reported to have a higher risk of developing postoperative complications and have a greater risk of prolonged hospital stay and mortality[16, 18]. HIV infection has been reported to increase the risk of wound sepsis and poor healing[35]. However, in the present study, there were no significant differences in the outcome between patients who are HIV infected and those who are non-HIV infected.
Fungal infections have been reported to be common in chronic lower limb ulcers with the prevalence ranging from 4.5%–50% and[36, 37], are also responsible for some chronic lower limb ulcers e.g. Madura foot[38, 39]. In the present study, fungal infection was not investigated due to logistic problems. This calls for other authors to investigate on this.
Histopathological examination remains the most important definitive diagnostic procedure, and it should be performed on any suspicious lesion or any chronic non-healing ulcers, especially those with any recent change in appearance or considerable drainage[40]. In the present study, malignant ulcers were histopathologically proven in 8.4% of cases, a figure closely to 10.4% reported by Senet et al.[41]. In our study, malignant melanoma was the most frequent histopathological type as previously reported by Chalya et al.[42] at the same centre, but at variant with Senet et al.[41] who reported squamous cell carcinoma as most common histopathological type. This difference in histopathological type reflects geographic differences in exposure to risk factors for developing malignant ulcers. While solar radiation has been suggested as a major cause of malignant melanoma among Caucasians, many of malignant melanoma among black Africans has been reported to be unrelated to solar exposure since they occur on the unexposed plantar of the foot[43–51]. Higher incidence of malignant melanoma in our study may be attributed to repeated trauma and constant pressure on the weight bearing areas of the foot as shoe-wearing is less frequent among people especially those from rural areas[42, 52]. In the present study, Kaposi's sarcoma ranked third after squamous cell carcinoma. Since the emergence of HIV infection, there has been a steady increase in the prevalence of KS worldwide[53, 54]. The rate of HIV infection among patients with Kaposi's sarcoma in our study was 60%, a figure slightly lower than that reported by Chalya et al.[42]. Thus it is obvious that successful HIV control will go a long way to reduce the incidence of this vascular malignancy.
The treatment of chronic lower limb ulcers requires multidisciplinary approach[54, 55]. The treatment modalities of chronic lower limb ulcers include surgical treatment (such as wound debridement, wide local excision, split thickness skin graft (STSG) or flap cover, block dissection of the regional nodes and limb amputation in advanced lesions) and non-surgical treatment such daily dressing, compressive bandages and antimicrobial agents bases on drug sensitivity pattern[54, 56–58]. In the present study, wound debridement with or without STSG or flap cover was the most common surgical procedure performed which is in keeping with studies done elsewhere[55].
The presence of complications has an impact on the final outcome of patients presenting with chronic lower limb ulcers[21]. Most complications are related to late presentation to hospital following ignorance, treatment at home, cost, poverty, advanced malignancy, premorbid conditions like diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and the treatment choices made and the procedures performed. In the present study a total of 178 complications were recorded in 175 (58.3%) patients, mostly being post operative complications. Of these, surgical site infections (77.5%) was the most common post operative complication followed by recurrent ulceration (11.2%) and skin grafting failure (6.2%). Callam et al.[21] reported a similar observation.
The length of hospital stay is an important measure of morbidity in which estimates of length of hospital stay are important for financial matters and accurate early estimates so as to facilitate better financial planning by the payers since it takes long for the chronic lower limb ulcers to heal so increasing the costs as well as seen in other studies as well[16, 18]. In this study, the overall mean length of hospital stay was 28.9 days, a figure which is higher than that reported in other studies[59, 60]. A mean length of hospital stay of 38.2 days was also reported in Nigerian study[16]. A mean of 36.2 days and 64.2 days were reported in Tanzanian and Nigerian studies respectively[16, 24]. Prolonged LOS in our study was observed in patients with diabetic foot ulcers and in patients who required surgical treatment.
In this study, the mortality rate was 4.3% which is relatively lower than that reported in other studies[16]. Mortality rate in the present study was attributed to complications of diabetes mellitus, hypertension, HIV infection and advanced malignancy. The causes of death in our study is at variant with a Nigerian study which reported anemic heart failure, septicemia and multiple organ failure as causes of death[16]. Addressing these factors responsible for mortality in our patients is mandatory to be able to reduce mortality associated with chronic lower limb ulcers.
In this study, complete healing at discharge from the hospital was achieved in more than 90% of the patients, which is comparable with other studies[16, 61]. This is satisfactorily acceptable to both the patient and the surgical team.
Self discharge by patient against medical advice is a recognized problem in our setting and this is rampant, especially amongst patients with chronic lower limb ulcers[62]. In the present study discharge against medical advice was noted in 0.7% of cases. Discharge against medical advice in our study is attributed to patients feeling well enough to leave and dissatisfaction with treatment received.
Poor follow up visits after discharge from hospitals remain a cause for concern in most developing countries[63]. These issues are often the results of poverty, long distance from the hospitals and ignorance. In the present study, only 33.1% of patients were available for follow up at three months, the reasons for low follow up rate at our study may be attributed to long distance from the hospital, lack of funds for transport and feeling of being cured.
Delay in getting histopathological results was the major limitation in this study and this might have affected the treatment outcome of patients who needed this confirmatory diagnostic investigation for definitive treatment.
Chronic lower limb ulceration remains a major public health problem in this part of Tanzania. Traumatic ulcers are the most common type of chronic lower limb ulcers. The majority of patients in our environment present late when the disease is already in advanced stages predisposing them to increased risk of recurrence, malignant change and limb amputation. Early recognition and aggressive treatment of the acute phase of chronic lower limb ulcers at the peripheral hospitals and close follow-up are urgently needed to improve outcomes of these patients in this environment. Further study looking at the factors associated with late presentation to tertiary health facilities is highly recommended. A population based study is highly needed to be able to assess the better picture of the magnitude of the problem in this region.
