A contemporary review of the management strategies for sickle cell disease related ischaemic and stuttering priapism.

Sickle cell disease is one of the most common autosomal recessive genetic disorders with 23% and over 70% of men with this condition, experiencing episodes of ischaemic priapism and stuttering priapism, respectively, with potentially severe consequences. The effective prevention of sickle cell disease induced ischaemic priapism and stuttering priapism requires a multidisciplinary and multimodal approach. A search of the English literature was performed utilising Pubmed® and Google Scholar to identify publications on contemporary and novel treatment options, with their associated treatment outcomes if available, that are utilised to prevent stuttering priapism episodes and hence a fulminant ischaemic priapism.

Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia Is Associated With Increased Mortality Risk in Hospitalizations for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): A National Inpatient Sample Analysis.

Background This study analyzed the incidence, characteristics, and mortality risk associated with cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) among hospitalizations for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with lung involvement. Methods Adult hospitalizations from the 2016-2020 nationwide inpatient sample were analyzed using relevant International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 codes for SLE with lung involvement (M32.13) and COP (J84.

Prognostic significance of anatomic site-specific depth of invasion in oral squamous cell carcinoma - An eastern Indian multi-center study.

A crucial parameter in determining the prognosis of oral cavity cancer is depth of invasion (DOI). This research aimed to correlate pathological DOI at different intra-oral anatomical sites for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with the risk of regional lymph node metastasis (LNM). This study also investigated the correlation of 3-year overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) with tumor depth.
