Background: Diagnostic screenings for vulvar squamous intraepithelial lesions (VSIL) are limited and without information on disease trends. A panel of six methylation markers (ASTN1, DLX1, ITGA4, RXFP3, SOX17, ZNF671; GynTect® assay) has shown promise in diagnosing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Given the similarities between the carcinogenesis of cervix and vulva, this study aimed to investigate the suitability of these markers for diagnosing vulvar lesions.

- The study analyzes the risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing major urologic cancer surgeries, particularly highlighting cystectomy as having the highest risk.
- It utilized data from the ACS-NSQIP database to examine over 207,861 cases, finding that 1.2% of patients experienced VTE post-surgery, with specific peaks for pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis on certain days post-operation.
- Key identified risk factors included blood transfusions, older age (≥ 80 years), high BMI (≥ 40 kg/m²), and certain medical histories like congestive heart failure, indicating a need for thorough pre-operative assessments for better thromboprophyl
Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) emerged in China in late 2019 with high rate of spread and transmission. As there was no recognized therapy many people worldwide used herbs in attempt to help their body overcome the disease.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the use of herbs by patients with COVID-19 in Sudan and tries to identify a possible role in cure or lowering the severity of the illness.
Background: Endemic African malaria vectors are poorly adapted to typical urban ecologies. However, Anopheles stephensi, an urban malaria vector formerly confined to South Asia and the Persian Gulf, was recently detected in Africa and may change the epidemiology of malaria across the continent. Little is known about the public health implications of An.
