Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated two different durations of continuous phototherapy (24 hours vs. 18 hours) for jaundiced newborns without hyperbilirubinemia neurotoxicity risks to find an effective treatment protocol without constant bilirubin monitoring.
- Results showed that while the 24-hour treatment led to a greater overall decline in total serum bilirubin (TSB) levels, the 18-hour treatment demonstrated a faster rate of TSB reduction per hour.
- The findings suggest that an 18-hour phototherapy course may be more effective for these newborns, as it reaches optimal outcomes by the 18th hour without need for continuous TSB measurement.
Cold-associated laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia syndrome after oxaliplatin treatment.
J Oncol Pharm Pract
October 2024
Objective: Oxaliplatin is a platinum-group chemotherapeutic agent commonly used in the treatment of colorectal cancer. In addition to hematological and gastrointestinal side effects, laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia associated with cold is reported as a rare side effect. In this article, seven cases with pharyngolaryngeal dysesthesia were presented and the diagnosis and treatment planning were reviewed in the light of literature findings.

The earthquake hazard analysis for two major earthquakes which occurred in the region was first carried out. Then, the geophysical methods including seismic refraction tomography (SRT), electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) were conducted to find out the structural and physical properties of the subsurface which include the layering, soil classification based on V and the groundwater content at 25 locations of 13 in target provinces.

Material And Methods: SpCO and venous COHb levels of patients with CO poisoning, according to a COHb level was 3%, were evaluated.
Medical ozone treatment on prevention of epidural fibrosis in the rat model.
Niger J Clin Pract
August 2023
Background/aim: Epidural fibrosis is one of the problems that can be seen after spinal surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible preventive role of medical ozone (O) treatment on epidural fibrosis.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-four Sprague Dawley rats were randomly split into four groups: control (C), O, laminectomy (L), and L+O groups.
