Mammography is the most preferred method for breast cancer screening. In this study, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems were used to improve image quality of mammography images and detect suspicious areas. The main contribution study reveal optimal combination various pre-processing algorithms enable better interpretation classification because significantly affect accuracy segmentation methods. effect combinations different preprocessing methods in differentiating benign malignant...
Vaspin is a novel adipokine that has insulin sensitizing effects. The association between serum vaspin levels and diabetic complications unknown. In this study, we aimed to evaluate as related glycemic status the presence of in group type 2 women.We evaluated 37 female patients control subjects who were matched for age body-mass index. Anthropometric measurements, insulin, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), C-reactive protein, measured each participant. Furthermore, neuropathy, nephropathy,...
Type 2 diabetic patients have an increased incidence of hip fracture. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the mortality rate after fracture and determine predictors in patients.356 who sustained a between January 1997 June 2008 were retrospectively reviewed for study. Of eligible 230 patients, 69 had type diabetes. Each these patients' medical nursing notes ascertain additional information, including patient demographic factors, prior co-morbidities, type, length post-fracture stay...
To evaluate the association of long-term prostaglandin analog (PGA) use with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) in medically treated glaucoma patients.This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted at single academic setting. In total, 70 eyes patients medical diagnosis who were on (>12 mo) topical hypotensive medication(s) included. Patients classified based whether they PGA or non-PGA class medication(s). MGD defined terminal duct obstruction and graded between 1 5 severity. For all...

Purpose: This is a preliminary study to investigate feasible genotype-phenotype correlation by defining ophthalmological findings in different genotypes of Down syndrome (DS). Methods: The included 62 eyes 31 DS patients. Patients were further subgrouped according cytogenetic forms DS. A comprehensive examination was performed and, biometric, keratometric, and pachymetric parameters evaluated. Results: mean best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) trisomy 21 0.41±0.14 (0.1-0.6), 0.6±0.09...
Background: Hydrotherapy is a complementary and alternative method in childbirth widely used to reduce labor pain stress. The birth process significantly influences levels of β-endorphin human milk.

Methods: Twenty-four eyes 24 patients were included this study. All had primary pterygia treated with autograft transplantation after resection. Tissue (Tisseel) was used the 12 sutures eyes. Patients followed for 6 months. Histopathologic examination performed both groups on postoperative days 1, 15, 45. Main outcome measures patient comfort,...
To evaluate the association of central corneal thickness (CCT) with diabetes mellitus and compare it age sex-matched healthy controls.This study included 245 eyes subjects (one eye per subject). One hundred diabetic patients constituted group 145 were controls. The was subdivided into 3 subgroups: subgroup 1 (no retinopathy), 2 (nonproliferative (proliferative retinopathy). CCT determined ultrasonic pachymeter. None had glaucoma, retinal laser treatment, history ocular surgery. Statistical...

The disease course of children with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) seems milder as compared adults, however, actual reason the pathogenesis still remains unclear. There is a growing interest on possible relationship between pathogenicity or severity and biomarkers including cytokines chemokines. We wondered whether these could be used for prediction prognosis COVID-19 improving our understanding variations pediatric adult cases COVID-19. acute phase serum levels 25 chemokines in samples from 60...
The lower extremity venous wall thickness (VWT) of Behçet's disease (BD) patients was reported to be significantly increased in adults, suggesting its use for the support BD diagnosis. This prospective study aimed investigate VWT childhood-onset definite and incomplete compare it healthy age-matched controls.Paediatric classified with according 2015 international paediatric criteria our centre were included study. Intima-media veins evaluate measured by ultrasonography, including common...
Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) enhances velocity of inspiratory contraction and modifies expiratory time. This study aimed to examine the impact high-intensity IMT (H-IMT) on exercise capacity in bronchiectasis.Forty-five patients were included. Lung function, respiratory strength endurance, capacity, dyspnoea, fatigue quality life (QOL) evaluated. Patients randomized into two groups: H-IMT control groups. Twenty-three underwent for 8 weeks, using threshold loading with a target workload...
