This study aimed to analyze the trends of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) among individuals aged 15 49 in China from 1990 2021 and compare them with global patterns using data Global Burden Disease (GBD) study. The analysis focused on age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), prevalence (ASPR), mortality (ASMR), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). Joinpoint regression was used determine average annual percentage change (AAPC), ARIMA model employed forecast 2022 2050. Results showed...
Aim: Present study aimed to elucidate the suppression of serum lipids by gamma- and delta-tocotrienol (γδT3).Methods: The lipid-lowering effects γδT3 were investigated using HepG2 liver cell line, hypercholesterolemic mice borderline-high cholesterol patients.Results: In-vitro results demonstrated two modes action. First, suppressed upstream regulators lipid homeostasis genes (DGAT2, APOB100, SREBP1/2 HMGCR) leading triglycerides, VLDL biosyntheses. Second, enhanced LDL efflux through...
Depression is commonly associated with gastrointestinal (GI) disorders, such as constipation, which can potentially intensify depressive symptoms. The interplay between these conditions believed to be facilitated by the gut-brain axis, suggests a complex bidirectional interaction. Current treatments, antidepressants and prokinetics, are often side effects high recurrence rates, highlighting need for effective treatments targeting both depression constipation. This study was designed assess...
Abstract Background Adequate contemporary information to counsel patients with a prenatal diagnosis of holoprosencephaly is lacking. We addressed this using data from the West Midlands Congenital Anomaly Register (WMCAR), population‐based malformation register, during time where technological improvements have been stable and anomaly screening well established. Methods Cases were defined ICD 10 code for holoprosencephaly. livebirths, stillbirths termination at all gestations included in...
Fundamental research into the growth of twins is lacking. Twin in utero commonly assumed to follow similar patterns as that singletons. This preliminary descriptive study on twin pregnancy aimed define velocity gestation advances, and if order, fetal sex, zygosity chorionicity have any relationship velocity.One hundred sixty-two women with pregnancies had an ultrasound examination at fortnightly intervals from 16 weeks until delivery. Fetal measurements biparietal diameter, abdominal...
Abstract Objective: To determine if high umbilical artery Doppler (UAD) pulsatility index (PI) is associated with cardio-vascular (CV) risk-factors in children at age 12 years.We studied 195 years who had in-utero UAD studies performed 28 weeks' gestation. The were grouped according to whether their PI was (indicating poor feto-placental circulation) or normal. At we assessed CV risk factors, including anthropometric measures, blood pressure, pulse wave velocity (a measure of arterial...
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of workflow redesign (eaST system) on pharmacy waiting time and near-missed events. We also investigated other factors that may potentially affect these outcomes. Methods A quasi-experimental (before–after) design was adopted. Pre-intervention data were collected over 7 months (January–July 2017). Subsequently, implemented effect intervention (August 2017–February 2018) evaluated. Univariate analysis used compare differences...
It has been suggested that the origins of pre-eclampsia arise from maternal venous system dysfunction. This study aimed to test this hypothesis by assessing hepatic perfusion in using three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound. The portal vein flow 12 women with normal pregnancy and 11 was measured standard Doppler 3D indices perfusion: index (FI), vascular (VI) vascularisation (VFI), which are believed reflect vascularity intensity were also measured. Because small numbers, a non-parametric used...
Drug-fruits interaction affects optimal anticoagulation, but little is known about this topic due to limited researches. This study aims investigate the association between Sabah local fruits consumption among non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients receiving warfarin therapy and number of international normalised ratio (INR) out range. A retrospective observational was conducted on attending clinic from April 2016 2017. Predictor variables measured were visits with consumption, types...
Objectives (1) To investigate a possible association between myometrial and placental artery vasoreactivity perfusion at the basal chorionic plates, respectively. (2) confirm that arteries from women with pre-eclampsia intrauterine growth restriction exhibit an attenuated endothelium-dependent vasodilatory response. Methods Women normal pregnancy, had magnetic resonance scan to assess using technique called intravoxel incoherent motion. At delivery, plate were assessed on wire myograph....
<h3>Objective</h3> To determine the incidence of stillbirth in women who have regular ante-natal ultrasound and induction at term compared to those that infrequent scans post-term. <h3>Study design</h3> A retrospective observational study was performed a tertiary centre with 5,700 deliveries per annum. Data on all collected via Northern Ireland Maternity System Database. Only an apparently low risk pregnancy were included. Women had private antenatal care often frequent delivery term. did...
To develop software to detect fetal motion from ultrasound sequences using a neural network and technique called optical flow. Optical flow is the term used describe range of computer vision algorithms that operate under assumption pixel's intensity remains constant while its position changes x y with dx dy over time period dt, where dx, dt represent small variations x,y t. This condition known as brightness constancy assumption. I(x; y; t) = I(x + dx; dy; t dt). The following performance...
<h3>Objectives</h3> To determine if performing fetal growth scans once or twice in the third trimester of pregnancy has an impact on stillbirth rate low-risk pregnancies <h3>Methods</h3> A retrospective observational study was performed a tertiary centre. Data collected using computerised Northern Ireland Maternity System (NIMATs) all births and stillbirths Royal Hospital from 2009–2012. We compared pre-2011 versus post 2011 i.e. when patients were scanned routinely. Statistical analysis...
<h3>Objective</h3> We wanted to provide evidence for or against the thus far, unaccepted theory that genesis of pre-eclampsia arises from maternal venous circulation. also assess hepatic perfusion in using 3 dimensional ultrasound. <h3>Methods</h3> measured portal vein flow 12 women with normal pregnancy and 11 standard Doppler evaluated three (3D) indices perfusion: index (FI), vascular (VI) vascularisation (VFI) which are believed reflect vascularity intensity. Because small numbers, a...
