Background and objective: The effective control of tuberculosis (TB) requires that people at high risk for the reactivation TB are identified. Haematological malignancy has been shown to be a factor development TB, either through immune suppression by tumour or effects chemotherapy. This study assessed hypothesis solid‐organ is TB. Methods: A retrospective cohort was performed determine incidence in patients with subjects without malignancy. Risk factors among cancer were also assessed....
<h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of coronary atherosclerosis in asymptomatic subjects classified as low risk by National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) guideline using CT angiography (CCTA). <h3>Design</h3> An observational study. <h3>Setting</h3> A single tertiary referral centre. <h3>Patients</h3> 2133 (49.2%) subjects, who were NCEP guideline, 4339 consecutive middle-aged underwent CCTA with 64-slice scanners part a general health evaluation....
This study aimed to compare the prognosis and characteristics of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma treated first-line atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (AB) combination therapy hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC). We retrospectively assessed 193 114 HAIC AB therapy, respectively, between January 2018 May 2023. The progression-free survival (PFS) was significantly superior that (p < 0.05), but there no significant difference in overall (OS). After propensity score...
Neuroendocrine breast carcinoma is a rare and distinct type of carcinoma, with morphologic features similar to those pulmonary gastrointestinal tract neuroendocrine tumors. More than 50% cells express markers. We documented the clinical radiologic 11 patients histologically confirmed carcinomas. Clinical manifestations included nipple discharge (6 patients) palpable masses (5 patients). Lesions were mainly oval or irregular on mammography (n = 8), sonography 11), magnetic resonance imaging...
With the wider application of nephron-sparing surgery, there has been an increase in occurrence postoperative hemorrhage. However, despite such increase, are only a limited number reports regarding renal artery embolization (RAE) for management bleeding after especially robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN).To evaluate safety and clinical efficacy transcatheter RAE hemorrhage open (OPN) RALPN.A total 29 patients (17 men, 12 women; age range, 31-70 years) who were referred...
This study was to investigate Melanoma-antigen gene (MAGE) expression by reverse transcription-nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nested PCR) with the original common primers of MAGE-A1 -A6 and analysis correlation between its well-known clinical parameters in addition evaluate feasibility primers. Surgical tumor corresponding nonneoplastic tissue samples from 38 patients colorectal cancer were studied. To confirm identities RT-PCR products, direct sequencing done after vitro subcloning....
Abstract Objective The objective of this study is to provide a comparative analysis variant clusters and their relevance across Africa, America, Europe, Asia, in order understand the evolutionary patterns virus different regions inform development targeted interventions genomic surveillance eforts. Methods analyzed global lineage evolution pattern 74, 075 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genomes from 32 countries four continents, focusing on regions. Variants were...
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) has been known as a good source of progenitor for multiple connective tissue including cartilage, muscle, adipocyte, and bone. P-glycoproteins (P-gps) also ABCB1 that exports diverse substrates are the product multidrug resistance-1 (MDR-1) gene. P-gp expression reported in chondrosarcoma hypertrophic chondrocyte human growth plate. This study was designed to investigate during chondrogenic differentiation adult cells. Bone marrow samples were obtained from nine...
Blunt traumatic aortic injury (BTAI) is rare and fatal. Treatment has evolved with advances in imaging the emergence of thoracic endovascular repair (TEVAR). This study reports a single-center, 5-year experience TEVAR open for BTAI.Patients BTAI treated at level I trauma center from 2014 to 2019 were retrospectively reviewed patient charts successive computed tomography angiography images. Patients grouped according treatment modality: repair, TEVAR, or medical management, chosen based on...
Transarterial embolisation (TAE) is an effective intervention for management of arterial haemorrhage associated with pelvic fracture. However, its effects on survival and clinical outcomes are unclear.Trauma patients data between November 2015 December 2019 were identified using a trauma database. Patients divided TAE non-TAE groups, propensity score was developed multivariate logistic regression. Survival at 28 days compared the groups after matching.Among 881 included in this study, 308...
While transarterial embolization (TAE) is an effective way to control arterial bleeding associated with pelvic fracture, the clinical outcomes according door-to-embolization (DTE) time are unclear. This study investigated how DTE affects in patients severe fracture.Using a trauma database between November 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019, undergoing TAE were retrospectively reviewed. The final population included 192 treated TAE. relationships patients' evaluated. Multiple binomial logistic...
Purpose The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has necessitated a redistribution of resources to meet hospitals’ service needs. This study investigated the impact COVID-19 on regional trauma center in South Korea. Methods We retrospectively reviewed cases polytrauma at single Korea between January 20 and September 30, 2020 (the period) compared them reported during same time frame (January 30) 2016 pre-COVID-19 period). primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, secondary outcomes...
We aimed to determine the incremental value of magnetic resonance generated synthetic computed tomography (MRCT), evaluate cervical ossification posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL), and compare (CT) numbers between MRCT conventional CT.Twenty-two patients who underwent imaging (MRI) with protocols CT were enrolled. images from 3D-T2-weighted imaging, 3D-pointwise-encoding time reduction radial acquisition, 3D-T1-Dixon, 3D-time-of-flight sequences. Two radiologists independently evaluated...
Purpose: To evaluate the optimal sizing of an aortic stent graft in patients with blunt thoracic injury (BTAI), considering decrease diameter hypovolemic status. Materials and Methods: From 2014 to 2020, 25 who underwent endovascular repair (TEVAR) for BTAI were included. Hemodynamic parameters emergency room (ER) just before main procedure (MP) collected. The sizes measured during initial computed tomography (CT) on arrival ER, aortography (AG) TEVAR, final CT outpatient clinic....
Behçet disease is a chronic inflammatory disorder with varying etiology. Herein, we report the involvement of peripheral veins in and discuss treatment thereof.Thirty-four patients venous vasculo-Behçet were retrospectively analyzed over 15 years. We reviewed clinical manifestations, choices, complications these patients.Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) was observed 24 (70.59%) varicose 19 (52.94%). Immunosuppressive administered to all due pathological feature wall inflammation. In DVT,...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a cytotoxic chemotherapy-resistant tumor and most HCCs arise in background of liver cirrhosis various causes. Although the IMBrave150 trial showed remarkable advancements treatment unresectable HCC with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab (AteBeva), therapeutic outcomes were unsatisfactory more than half patients. Accordingly, many ongoing trials combine conventional modalities new drugs such as immune checkpoint inhibitors for better outcomes, they are expected...
