Tocilizumab (TCZ; interleukine-6 receptor antagonist) has been proposed to treat severe forms of Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) because plays an important role in COVID-19-induced cytokine storm. Several clinical studies have shown very good effects TCZ patients with COVID-19, a few minor side reported. Only eight serious liver injuries caused by were reported before being used the treatment COVID-19. Considering significantly increased use for we would like warn its rare but possible...
Background and objectives: Due to the fact that mandible is only movable bone in face, it often exposed influence of external forces. The incidence trismus posttraumatic pain unilateral mandibular corpus fractures may be related occurrence complications. There a decrease quality life these patients. aim was study relationship preoperative with complications, as well investigate life. Materials Methods: A prospective on 60 patients isolated performed, follow-up period six months. level...
Despite recent advances in diagnosis and treatment, colorectal cancer (CRC) remains the third most common worldwide, has both a poor prognosis high recurrence rate, thus indicating need for new, sensitive specific biomarkers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are important regulators of gene expression, which involved numerous biological processes implicated tumorigenesis. The objective present study was to investigate expression miRNAs plasma tissue samples from patients with CRC, examine their...
Background: The optic nerve (ON), a major component of the visual system, is divided into four segments: intrabulbar (IB), intraorbital (IO), intraca- nalicular (ICn) and intracranial (ICr). ICr ends with two nerves partially decussating in chiasm (OCh). purpose this study to provide detailed description dimensions OC (the diameter surface area its foramina central segment, as well length thickness walls) ON segments, ICn segment ON, angle decussation OCh, distance between at cranial foramen...
Aspergillosis is a frequent invasive fungal infection in liver recipients (affecting 1%-9.2% of all patients), second only to candidiasis. Significant risk factors for aspergillosis include corticosteroid therapy, neutropenia, T-cell dysfunction, renal failure and requirement replacement therapy. Aspergillus usually affects the lungs recipients, with hematogenous dissemination occurring 50%-60% cases. Renal involvement rare considered occur 0.4% cases aspergillosis.This paper describes case...
The choice of surgical approach can affect the quality life in patients with a facial fracture.The aim this study was to assess surgically treated fractures, and determine potential difference related different approaches.Ninety fracture cases were analyzed. They divided into three groups: operated by skin incision, mucosal conservatively. To examine patients, questionnaire on oral health Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP)-14 used.In first days after injury, transcutaneous showed poorer...
BACKGROUND Abdominal surgery is associated with a systemic inflammatory response which facilitates postoperative complications through immune imbalance and hypercatabolism. The aim of the study was to evaluate effect combined perioperative lidocaine, magnesium, amino acids on inflammation pain. MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective, randomized, double-blind included 2 groups patients undergoing abdominal surgery: Group 1 - receiving aforementioned substances; control (undergoing conventional...

Previous literature reports muscles, as well embryological basis for their presence. reported...
The aim of this research was to determine the attitudes transplant-related health care workers and local population Montenegro toward organ donation transplantation.Our study included 200 professionals (from Clinical Center Montenegro, only transplant hospital in country) volunteers from Podgorica (the capital Montenegro). Their were evaluated using an anonymous, self-administered, multiple-choice questionnaire.Most would donate their organs on specific occasions (43.6%), whereas general...

Cavernous hemangioma is the most common benign tumor of liver (the incidence ranging from 1.4% to 52%).The etiology this unclear, with several hypotheses based on potential congenital source lesions.Extramedullary hematopoiesis a process blood cell production outside bone marrow, usually occurring due hematologic disease or marrow infiltration other causes.We present case 78 year old male suspected malignant gallbladder, as well cavernous extramedullary and embolization (endothelial cells...
Traditionally recognized risk factors for atherosclerosis are not presented in 50% of patients with ischemic heart disease. Chronic inflammation low pathogenic agents slightly, or no signs is the mainstay and could be triggered by an infectious agent, most commonly Chlamydia pneumoniae. Immunostaning 33 pneumoniae-positive 30 pneumoniae- negative quadriple arterial sets were examined protective Sp110, atherogenic HSP60 markers, as well TNF-α which inflammatory marker affected both them. The...
Introduction. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced colopathy is an uncommon condition associated with the long-term use of enteric-coated and slow-release nonsteroidal drugs. This paper presents a case showing no symptoms or signs, discovered by positive immunochemical faecal occult blood test. Case report. Performed within framework National Program for Screening Colorectal Cancer, test was in 56-year-old female patient. The colonoscopy revealed three lesions right colon: one...
Abstract Physiological changes associated with aging increase the risk for development of age-related diseases. This is nonspecific to type disease, although each desease develops through a unique pathophysiologic mechanism. People who age at faster rate develop diseases earlier in their life. They have an older “biological age” compared “chronological age”. Early detection individuals accelerated would allow timely intervention postpone onset not only life expectancy, but also length good...
