pain as a potential symptom of COVID-19 could reduce the risk viral transmission to healthcare providers and spread infection within hospitals.Modifications have been made our institutional protocols for acute admission diagnostic work-up patients with abdominal during pandemic 6 .Droplet isolation testing are now performed on all upper pain, (irrespective location) fever, presenting quarantine.CT chest is routinely in adults undergoing CT abdomen abdominalpain.
Giant Colonic Diverticulum (GCD) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of diverticular disease, defined as diverticulum larger than 4 cm, most commonly arising in the sigmoid colon. Its rarity could lead to diagnostic delays and mismanagement. A 64-year-old Caucasian female presented with persistent abdominal pain swelling. Examination revealed palpable mass left flank. computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated an 11x10x14 cm air-filled cavity adjacent colon, initially...
Abstract Background Few studies have investigated the association between adiposity and connective soft tissue cancer, a rare understudied cancer entity. We this in large cohort of more than 1.7 million individuals Norway. Methods The study included 1,723,692 men women aged 16–75 years at baseline 1963–1975. Data on weight height measurements from Norwegian Tuberculosis Screening Programme were linked to Cancer Registry. estimated hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for...
OBJECTIVES: Surges in demand for sedatives mechanical ventilation during the COVID-19 pandemic caused shortages of globally. Propranolol, a nonselective beta-adrenergic blocker, has been associated with reduced agitation and sedative needs observational studies. We aimed to test whether propranolol could reduce dose needed mechanically ventilated patients. DESIGN: Open-label randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Three academic hospitals. SUBJECTS: Any nonparalyzed patient receiving requiring...
Summary The association between body mass index (BMI) and cancers of the esophagus stomach remains complex requires further exploration. This study aimed to investigate this association, including early-onset (< 50 years) cancer related mortality. A nationwide registry-based cohort was performed by linking data from multiple national registries in Norway. included 1,723,692 individuals, with 22,473 gastroesophageal cases identified over 55,701,169 person-years follow-up. In men, a 5...
Abstract Background There is limited evidence of potential associations between body mass index (BMI) and risk vulvar vaginal cancer. We explored these in a large cohort Norwegian women. Methods The analytical dataset included 889,441 women aged 16–75 years at baseline 1963–1975. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the BMI cancer incidence. Results During 30.1 million person-years follow-up, 1748 incident 408...
The aim of this study was to explore the associations between BMI and cancer liver, bile ducts, gallbladder.A registry-based cohort performed by linking data from several national registries in Norway.The comprised 1 723 692 individuals including 4768 hepatobiliary cases during 55 743 509 person-years follow-up. In men, we found increased risk per 5 kg/m2 increase for hepatocellular carcinoma extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. women there cholangiocarcinoma gallbladder cancer. Women with high...
The aim was to explore potential associations between the body mass index (BMI) and risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), including subsites colon, cancer-specific death.A registry-based cohort study conducted with baseline data gathered from Norwegian Tuberculosis Screening Programme, collected 1963 1975, linked follow-up Cancer Registry Norway Cause Death Registry. Cox regression models were used BMI CRC death.Of 1 723 692 included individuals, 76 616 developed during 55 370 707 person-years...
A woman with acute abdominal pain was admitted to hospital suspected cholecystitis. In addition pain, she had vomiting, loss of appetite, diarrhoea and symptoms pyrexia. She no from the respiratory tract, but later found have COVID-19. number patients presented similar at our hospital. This has led temporary changes in procedures for handling investigating pain.
Background and objective: An association between body mass index (BMI) pancreatic cancer is suggested in observational studies. However, further studies are required to substantiate available evidence. The aim of this study was explore the BMI ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) risk, treatment, mortality. Methods: A registry-based cohort performed by combining data from four registries Norway. Baseline were collected 1963 1975 with follow-up until 2018. Kaplan–Meier curves multivariable Cox...
Viruses are the most abundant and genetically diverse biological entities on earth, yet repertoire of viral proteins remains poorly explored. As number sequenced virus genomes grows into thousands, hundreds we report a systematic computational analysis point first-contact between viruses their hosts, namely transmembrane (TM) proteins.The complement α-helical TM in double-stranded DNA infecting bacteria archaea reveals large-scale trends that differ from those hosts. typically encode...
Abstract Background A few previous studies have suggested a possible association between adiposity and increased risk of penile cancer, however, the evidence is to date limited for this rare cancer. We investigated body mass index (BMI) cancer in large Norwegian cohort. Methods The analyses included 829,081 men aged 16–75 years at baseline 1963–1975. Multivariable Cox regression were used estimate hazard ratios (HRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) associations BMI incidence. Results total...
