: Cervical mesonephric adenocarcinomas (MNACs) are among the rarest neoplasms of the female genital tract. Unlike the majority of cervical cancers, which are predominantly squamous in origin and strongly associated with HPV seropositivity, MNACs are distinct in both histology and pathophysiology. Despite their unique characteristics, MNACs have historically been managed in parallel with squamous cell carcinomas, resulting in a lack of optimised, evidence-based treatment protocols.

Objectives: The aim of this study of this study was to evaluate preoperative radiology and histopathology findings in cervical cancer lymphadenopathy detection, allowing targeted frozen section examination (FSE).

Design: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 203 early-stage cervical cancer patients between 2010 and 2019 in a tertiary centre.

Participants/materials, Setting, And Methods: All patients had histologically confirmed cervical cancer and underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) prior to intraoperative FSE.

Article Synopsis
  • Individuals can be classified into two categories based on their oral processing behavior: firm processing likers (FPL), who prefer using their teeth, and soft processing likers (SPL), who use their tongue and palate.
  • The study investigated the connection between these oral processing preferences and dental caries experience among participants, revealing that SPL had a higher incidence of dental caries compared to FPL.
  • Data analysis indicated that SPL had a significantly higher mean DMFS score, suggesting that their preferred oral processing method may contribute to increased tooth decay.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two forms of tobacco smoking, cigarettes and water pipe smoking (WPS), on the expression of a panel of salivary proteins in healthy adults. Three groups of age and gender-matched participants were enrolled in the study: never-smokers, cigarette smokers and WPS (N = 55 per group). Expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endothelin and transferrin in unstimulated whole saliva was estimated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

The study of fallopian tube (FT) function in health and disease has been hampered by limited knowledge of FT stem cells and lack of in vitro models of stem cell renewal and differentiation. Using optimized organoid culture conditions to address these limitations, we find that FT stem cell renewal is highly dependent on WNT/β-catenin signaling and engineer endogenous WNT/β-catenin signaling reporter organoids to biomark, isolate, and characterize these cells. Using functional approaches, as well as bulk and single-cell transcriptomics analyses, we show that an endogenous hormonally regulated WNT7A-FZD5 signaling axis is critical for stem cell renewal and that WNT/β-catenin pathway-activated cells form a distinct transcriptomic cluster of FT cells enriched in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and integrin signaling pathways.

Introduction: Limited research exists on the knowledge and attitudes of Jordanian community residents toward people with dementia (PwD). As the prevalence of dementia is anticipated to increase, there is a critical need for informed knowledge and positive attitudes toward dementia in the Jordanian community.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate people's knowledge of and attitudes toward PwD and identify the predictors of dementia knowledge and attitudes.

No valid and reliable instrument exists in Arabic to measure the spiritual perspectives of Arab Muslims and Christians. This study translated the Spiritual Perspective Scale (SPS; Reed, 1987) into Arabic and examined its psychometric properties. The Arabic SPS was tested in a convenience sample of 206 Jordanian Christians and 182 Jordanian Muslim undergraduate nurses.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is considered one of the challenges facing health care in the modern century; until now, there has been no effective treatment to cure it, but there are drugs to slow its progression. Therefore, early detection of Alzheimer's is vital to take needful measures before it develops into brain damage which cannot be treated. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques have contributed to the diagnosis and prediction of its progression.

: The classification of breast cancer is performed based on its histological subtypes using the degree of differentiation. However, there have been low levels of intra- and inter-observer agreement in the process. The use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in the field of radiology has shown potential in categorizing medical images, including the histological classification of malignant neoplasms.

An infectious disease called tuberculosis (TB) exhibits pneumonia-like symptoms and traits. One of the most important methods for identifying and diagnosing pneumonia and tuberculosis is X-ray imaging. However, early discrimination is difficult for radiologists and doctors because of the similarities between pneumonia and tuberculosis.

Currently, a considerable volume of information is collected and stored by large health institutions. These data come from medical records and hospital records, and the Hospital Cancer Registry is a database for integrating data from hospitals throughout Iraq. The data mining (DM) technique provides knowledge previously not visible in the database and can be used to predict trends or describe characteristics of the past.

The use of computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) models has been proposed to aid in the detection and classification of breast cancer. In this work, we evaluated the performance of multilayer perceptron neural network and nonlinear support vector machine models to classify breast cancer nodules. From the contour of 569 samples, ten morphological features were used as input to the classifiers.

Of the most popular applications of artificial intelligence (AI), those used in the health sector are the ones that represent the largest proportion, in terms of use and expectation. An investigative systematization model is proposed in the scientific training of nursing professionals, by articulating epistemological positions from previous studies on the subject. In order to validate the model proposed, a prototype was created to present an application that could help nurses in their clinical processes, storing their experiences in a case base for future research.
