This study explored the association between income inequality and use of dental services role that investment in health care plays explaining association. We pooled individual-level data from 223,299 adults, 18 years or older, 66 countries, who participated World Health Organization (WHO) Surveys with country-level different international sources. Income was measured at national level using Gini coefficient, defined as having received treatment to address problems mouth and/or teeth past...
[b]BACKGROUND[/b] Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease that can affect any organ, including the liver. It manifested by presence of non-caseating granulomas within involved organs, most commonly pulmonary, lymphatic, and hepatic system. Unlike pulmonary or lymphatic involvement, involvement usually asymptomatic it underdiagnosed. Here, we report case patient with history sarcoidosis who developed sarcoidosis. [b]CASE REPORT[/b] 68-year-old female 2-week severe abdominal pain epigastric...
Abstract Objective To explore the interrelationships between income inequality, disinvestment in health care, and use of dental services at country level. Methods This study pooled national estimates for among adults aged 18 years or older from 70 countries that participated W orld H ealth S urvey 2002 to 2004, together with aggregate data on ( GDP per capita), inequality G ini coefficient), care (total expenditure dentist‐to‐population ratio) various international sources. Use was defined...
COVID-19 has had a substantial impact globally. It spreads readily, particularly in enclosed and crowded spaces, such as public transport carriages, yet there are limited studies on how this risk can be reduced. We developed tool for exploring the potential impacts of mitigation strategies networks, called Systems Analytics Epidemiology Transport (SAfE Transport). SAfE combines an agent-based transit assignment model, community-wide transmission disease spread model to support strategic...
Objectives To demonstrate a magnitude of the cardiovascular benefits, concomitantly analyzing safety outcomes sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2-I) comprehensively, as class effect in larger sample size combined from recent randomized control trials. Methods We searched electronic databases using specific terms and evaluated 6 efficacy 10 outcomes. Odds ratios (ORs) 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to compare two interventions. Results Five studies ( n = 41 267) included,...
Introduction: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) has been established as a viable alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) when treating symptomatic stenosis in intermediate and high risk patients. Historically, general endotracheal anesthesia (GETA) the primary form of patient sedation during TAVR. Recently, conscious (CS) utilized safe option. As there are limited data available comparing these two modalities, it would be helpful investigate this question further....
e12540 Background: Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes deaths in breast cancer patients. Pre-existing cardiac conditions and cardiovascular risks associated with chemotherapy affect overall mortality these Cardio protective medications like beta-blocker, ACEIs, ARBs, statin, potassium-sparing diuretics have shown to increase survival odds. In our study, we investigated patients who were on cardio medications. Methods: Our retrospective cohort study included from Simmons...
e12548 Background: Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity has been associated with certain breast cancer therapy regimens, such as anthracyclines. With the development of newer therapies, just anti HER2 agents,another association recognized in these drug groups. We report cardiac safety anti-HER2 agents and Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted patients diagnosed between January 1st 2014 December 31st 2017, treated chemotherapy were identified from a large center database. Heart...
Introduction: Cute Syndrome is caused by a missense mutation in SCN8-A which encodes voltage gated sodium channel alpha subunit 8 (Nav1.6). Gain of function mutations trigger epileptic encephalopathy, while loss are associated with cerebellar ataxia and cognitive problems 1 . While these channels essential for progression action potentials across the cardiac circuit, not arrhythmias. Meanwhile, SCN5-A have been implicated heart block, LQTS, Brugada syndrome, ventricular fibrillation. Here we...
