Background: Acute myocarditis/perimyocarditis presents with a variable prognosis ranging from complete recovery to end-stage heart failure (HF), sudden cardiac arrest, and death. The relationship between a prior history of myocarditis/perimyocarditis and outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest remains unclear.

Methods And Results: Using the SCRR (Swedish Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Registry), we analyzed 54 568 cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest from 2010 to 2020 where cardiopulmonary resuscitation was attempted.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the characteristics and survival rates of patients with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and those without T1D who experienced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Sweden from 2010 to 2020.
  • It included a total of 54,568 cases, identifying 448 patients with T1D using specific diagnostic coding.
  • Results showed no significant differences in survival outcomes, such as discharge status and neurological function, between the two groups, suggesting that T1D does not adversely affect survival rates in OHCA cases when other factors are considered.

We aimed to analyze the effect of acute exercise on oral microbiota in regularly trained swimmers. As environmental factors may affect the oral microbiota; we also aimed to analyze the short-duration effect of swimming training on the oral bacteria relative difference in swimmers. Saliva samples of 20 swimmers both before and after the training were used for the oral microbiota metagenesis.

The purpose of the study is to determine the prevalence of interleukin (IL)-1A (rs1800587), (rs1143634) and vitamin D receptor () (, rs731236) gene polymorphisms in the Turkish population and their association with Stage III Grade B/C periodontitis. Systemically and periodontally healthy individuals (N = 100) and Stage III Grade B/C periodontitis patients (N=100) based on clinical and radiographic examination were included in this research. Clinical attachment level, probing depth, bleeding on probing, plaque and gingival indices of the subjects were measured.

Objective: A functional polymorphism on the 16th exon of the alpha-actinin-3 gene has an effect on the protein structure and cellular signaling and therefore on muscle contraction. In this study, we aimed to analyze the alpha-actinin-3 rs1815739 polymorphism in 3-dimensional malocclusions and different craniofacial skeletal patterns.

Methods: Forty-nine volunteering subjects enrolled for the study.
