Incidence and complication rate of arthroplasty in Perthes disease management: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Perthes disease presents a challenge in orthopedic management, often necessitating surgical intervention such as arthroplasty. This meta-analysis systematically evaluated the rate of occurrence and complications associated with arthroplasty in Perthes disease.

Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, Web of Sciences, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases to identify relevant studies.

Eruptive Pseudoangiomatosis in Adults: A Case Report of an Unfamiliar Association With Neurological Symptoms.

Eruptive pseudoangiomatosis (EP) is a rare cutaneous condition that usually resolves spontaneously within a few days and is more frequently seen in the pediatric age group. It is characterized by the sudden onset of asymptomatic small erythematous hemangioma-like papules encircled by a pale halo. The precise pathogenesis is unknown; however, multiple environmental triggers have been reported.

Effect of preoperative hair removal vs. no removal on surgical site infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The practice of preoperative hair removal has been debated regarding its role in Surgical Site Infection (SSI) prevention. This study aimed to compare the different hair removing modalities and investigate the effect of preoperative hair removal on SSI rates.

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to PRISMA guidelines.

Repurposing Dapagliflozin for Mitigation of the Kidney Injury Triggered by Cadmium in Rats: Role of Autophagy, Apoptosis, and the SIRT1/Nrf2/HO-1 Pathway.

The antioxidant/antiapoptotic features of dapagliflozin (DPG) have mediated its beneficial actions against several experimental models. However, no studies have been conducted to determine whether DPG mitigates the renal injury triggered by cadmium (Cd). Herein, DPG was studied for its potential to attenuate kidney damage in Cd-intoxicated rats, as well as to unravel the mechanisms involving oxidative events, autophagy, and apoptosis.

Eco-Friendly Synthesis of Quinazoline Derivatives Through Visible Light-Driven Photocatalysis Using Curcumin-Sensitized Titanium Dioxide.

This study explores a sustainable method for synthesizing quinazoline derivatives through visible light-driven photocatalysis using curcumin-sensitized titanium dioxide (TiO) nanoparticles. A one-pot, three-component reaction involving aldehydes, urea/thiourea, and dimedone was utilized to efficiently produce quinazoline compounds. The photocatalytic performance of curcumin-sensitized TiO (Cur-TiO) was compared to pure TiO (P-TiO), with Cur-TiO showing significantly enhanced activity.
