Background Heart failure (HF) is characterized by impaired cardiac function. Based on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), it classified into HF with reduced (HFrEF), mildly (HFmrEF), and preserved (HFpEF). Each phenotype has distinct pathophysiological mechanisms clinical features. Recent findings indicate that systemic inflammation a significant factor in the progression of heart failure. Inflammatory biomarkers, including neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte...
Background: The development of novel medical imaging technologies and treatment procedures hinges on the availability accurate versatile phantoms. This paper presents a cost-effective approach for creating anthropomorphic abdominal Methods: study proposes method using 3D printing readily available materials (beeswax, plaster, epoxy resin) to create high-fidelity three-dimensionally printed phantoms exhibited X-ray attenuation properties closely matching those human tissues, with measured...
Conventional magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (NBI) observation of the gastric body mucosa shows dominant patterns in relation to regular arrangement collecting venules, subepithelial capillary network, and pits.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) presents a high mortality complication in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Yet, its correlation non-ST elevation (NSTEMI) remains neglected the literature. This study aims to investigate prevalence, risk factors, clinical features, and short-term outcomes associated AKI development NSTEMI. A one-year prospective observational cohort involved 170 consecutive hospitalized Intensive Care Department of Internal Medicine Clinic at University Clinical...
BACKGROUND Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) poses significant challenges in clinical management due to its diverse outcomes. Understanding the prognostic role of hematological parameters and derived ratios NSTEMI patients could aid risk stratification improve patient care. AIM To evaluate predictive value hemogram-derived for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) patients, potentially improving METHODS A prospective, observational cohort study was conducted 2021...
The aim of the current research was to investigate association between plasma endocan levels and metabolic control parameters, as well evaluate its predictive value for clinical complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMT2). A total 100 DMT2 participated this prospective observational study. Plasma were significantly elevated HbA1c > 7% (1.38 ± 0.33 vs 0.68 0.23 ng/mL; P < 0.0001), compared ≤ 7%. Patients concentrations >1.10 ng/mL (median 1.10 ng/mL) demonstrated...
The current study aimed to explore whether the level of decrease in platelet distribution width (PDW), platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR), and mean volume (MPV) has prognostic value for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) acute myocardial infarction without ST-segment elevation (NSTEMI) treated with clopidogrel. In this prospective observational cohort study, PDW, P-LCR, MPV were determined on admission at hospital 24 h after clopidogrel treatment 170 non-STEMI patients. MACEs...

Functional (bilirubin, AST &amp;ndash; aspartate aminotransferase, ALT alanine ALP...
The association between urine amylase levels and the development of postoperative complications after Whipple resection is still unknown. Aim this study was to determine prognostic value for in patients who underwent resection. In retrospective cohort study, we analyzed urine, serum drains 52 preoperatively on Postoperative Day 1 (POD1) intervention. Patients were followed up 3 months assess their predictive complications. with complications, significantly higher POD1 than before (198.89 ±...
