Aim: To examine the anatomy of the petrosphenoidal ligament (PSL), and its relationship with the abducens nerve (AN) in newborn cadavers.
Material And Methods: Using 10 formalin-fixed newborn cadavers, 20 PSLs and ANs on both sides were examined. The structure of each PSL, its morphometric features, and its relationship with the AN were evaluated.
Article Synopsis
- The coxal bone is essential for movement, stability, and childbirth, yet there has been little research on its geometric properties, particularly the golden ratio.
- This study measured 95 adult dry coxal bones using 18 morphometric parameters, identifying consistent ratios between various anatomical lengths of the bone.
- The findings suggest that these constant ratios could aid surgeons in making more accurate measurements during surgical procedures related to the coxal bone, potentially reducing complications.
Introduction: Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is used in a wide spectrum of diseases in critically ill pediatric patients. We aim to review the indications, complications, safety, and outcomes of critically ill children who received TPE.
Methods: All of the TPE procedures performed in a pediatric intensive care unit providing tertiary care during 19 years (January 2013-January 2023) were evaluated retrospectively.
Background: In this case, we report multiple isolations of C. jejuni in a patient with common variable immunodeficiency between 2010 and 2018.
Methods: C.
As the use of plastic-containing materials in our daily lives becomes increasingly common, exposure to nanoplastics accordingly becomes inevitable. Micro and nanoplastics released from large amounts of plastic waste constitute a serious environmental problem. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of polystyrene nanoplastic (PS-NP) on the hippocampus.
