Cardiovascular and all-cause mortality outcomes of adrenalectomy versus medical treatment in primary aldosteronism: an umbrella review.

Background: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is now recognized as the most prevalent form of secondary hypertension globally, contributing significantly to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This umbrella review aims to systematically compare cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality in PA patients undergoing adrenalectomy versus mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) treatment, aiming to inform optimal management strategies.

Method: Following PRISMA guidelines (Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.

Evaluation of levels of uric acid and lipid profile in hospitalized patients with diabetes.

Objective: Diabetes is the most common metabolic disorder that leads to various complications, and among these complications, disruption in the lipid profile and serum uric acid (SUA) is one of the significant cases that can lead to the deterioration of the health status of patients with diabetes. So, we aimed to evaluate the level of SUA and lipid profiles in patients with diabetes. A total of 230 patients with diabetes who were admitted to Razi Hospital, Rasht, Iran, were enrolled in this study.

Preventable Prenatal and Neonatal Risk Factors of Type 1 Diabetes in Childhood.

Background: Childhood type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is an autoimmune disease which is increasing in incidence, but little is known about the events that trigger the autoimmune process. Most of the time, these processes begin in prenatal and natal periods; therefore, this study aimed to investigate the prenatal and neonatal risk factors of T1DM in childhood.

Methods: This case-control study has been performed on children with T1DM who referred to the 17 Shahrivar children's hospital.

Dermoscopic Findings of Alopecia in Patients with Hypothyroidism.

Background: Thyroid hormones are essential for the growth and maintenance of hair follicles. Numerous studies have evaluated the relationship between thyroid disorders and hair loss. However, no study has assessed the dermoscopic results in patients with hypothyroidism and hair loss.

Assessment of the work ability related factors in diabetic patients.

HOMA-IR index in non-diabetic patient, a reliable method for early diagnosis of liver steatosis.

Background: NAFLD is one of the most common liver diseases in the world. HOMA-IR as an indicator of insulin resistance is commonly used in clinical trials in NAFLD patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the application of HOMA-IR index in the diagnosis of NAFLD.

The Cutoff of Gonadotropins for Close Evaluation of Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Turner Syndrome.

Background: Turner syndrome is a common genetic disorder in females. It is a disorder characterized by variable number of clinical features, so it needs a multidisciplinary approach for care. Therefore, we aimed to define the cutoff of gonadotropins for close evaluation of cardiometabolic risk factors in Turner syndrome.

Diabetic foot care: knowledge and practice.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are common problems in diabetes. One of the most important factors affecting the quality of diabetes care is knowledge and practice. The current study aimed at determining the knowledge and practice of patients with diabetes regarding the prevention and care of DFUs.
