Objectives To explore the utility of Prostate Health Index ( PHI ) density for detection clinically significant prostate cancer PC a) in a contemporary cohort men presenting diagnostic evaluation a. Patients and Methods The study included patients with elevated prostate‐specific antigen PSA ; >2 ng/ mL negative digital rectal examination who underwent testing biopsy at our institution 2015. Serum markers were prospectively measured per standard clinical pathway. was calculated as...
Background: Methylphenidate, a medication prescribed for individuals suffering from attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, is increasingly being misused by students. Objective: The aims of this study were to evaluate the frequency methylphenidate use among group Iranian medical students and assess their knowledge methylphenidate. Methods: Anonymous, self-administered questionnaires completed all entering university between 2000 2007. Results: Methylphenidate users' mean score was higher...
Tracheostomy was first described by Greco-Roman physicians, including Paulus of Aegina. Medieval Islamic clinicians extended the ideas with substantial contributions to field surgery, tracheostomy. Although Al-Zahrawi (936-1013 CE) stated that he had not heard or read any physicians having performed tracheostomy, there is evidence many prominent surgeons did practice this lifesaving procedure during medieval times. Throughout Golden Age, Muslim advanced tracheostomy modifications procedure,...
Objectives To determine the performance of Prostate Health Index ( PHI ) density PHID combined with MRI and prior negative biopsy PNB status for diagnosis clinically significant prostate cancer PC a). Patients Methods without a a, elevated prostate‐specific antigen normal digital rectal examination who underwent testing prospectively to were included in this study. was calculated retrospectively using volume derived from transrectal ultrasonography at biopsy. Univariable multivariable...
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy neuromobilization combined with routine physiotherapy in patients carpal tunnel syndrome through subjective, physical, and electrophysiological studies. [Subjects Methods] Twenty (totally 32 hands) were assigned two groups: treatment control groups. In both groups, received physiotherapy. addition physiotherapy, group neuromobilization. symptoms severity scale, visual analogue functional status Phalen's sign, median nerve...
Abstract Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe inflammatory condition of the pancreas with significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in its necrotizing form. This review explores management peripancreatic collections particular pancreatitis, focusing on evolution from traditional open surgical methods to contemporary minimally invasive image-guided techniques. AP can lead various local complications, including pancreatic pseudocysts, acute necrotic collections, walled-off necrosis....
The genetic base of fertility and ovulation rate in Moghani Ghezel sheep northwestern Iran northeastern Turkey is important because their fat-tailed meat carpet quality wool. genes encoding bone morphogenetic (BM) protein 15 growth differentiation (GD) factor 9, respectively BMP15 GDF9 have been shown to affect female productivity domesticated sheep. Recently, numerous investigations performed on a variety breeds determine the association between mutations these fertility. Thus, this study,...
To compare the prevalence of unexplained pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) in hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to laboratory parameters between with PAH those normal pressure (PAP).We retrospectively reviewed medical records 278 chronic HD 145 PD patients. Laboratory findings including hemoglobin, calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, albumin, parathyroid hormone level, serum iron, total iron binding capacity, ferritin, creatinine blood urea nitrogen were...
Aim. To evaluate the diagnostic value of ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with ulnar neuropathy at elbow (UNE). Methods. We prospectively performed electrodiagnostic, ultrasonographic, MRI studies UNE healthy controls. Three cross-sectional area (CSA) measurements nerve multiple levels along arm maximum CSA(-max) were recorded. Results. The CSA different between severity grades (P < 0.05). CSA-max had greatest sensitivity (93%) specificity (68%). Moreover, ≥10...
The rise of European science during the Renaissance is greatly indebted to flourishing sciences Islamic Golden Age. However, some believe that medieval physicians and in particular surgeons had been merely a medium for Greco-Roman ideas. Contrarily, medical books, such as Al-Tasrif Al-Zahrawi (936–1013), surgical instructions represent change usual techniques or are accompanied by case history, implying procedure was actually undertaken. Along with hundreds chapters on different diseases...
Summary Background There is a controversy over using either smaller‐ or larger‐size endotracheal tubes ( ETT ) in children undergoing cardiac surgery, and some anesthesiologists prefer to use sizes different from the formula‐based sizes. The aim of present study was compare proper‐size cuffed vs noncardiac surgeries. Methods In an observational prospective study, 80 planned undergo elective surgeries NCS group) scheduled for CS were recruited. For intubation, initial size calculated based on...
To determine the pharmacodynamic effects of Sonidegib (LDE-225) in prostate tumor tissue from men with high-risk localized cancer, by comparing pre-surgical core-biopsy specimens to harvested post-treatment at prostatectomy.We conducted a prospective randomized (Sonidegib vs. observation) open-label translational clinical trial cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy. The primary endpoint was proportion patients each arm who achieved least two-fold reduction GLI1 mRNA expression versus...
