Background: Sleep problems in teenagers seriously disturb the active process of learning. Given the absence of sleep data from Lebanon, a study to determine sleep quality among adolescents is vital.
Aims: To understand sleep habits and patterns that affect sleep quality, and assess the amplitude of possible sleep problems in Lebanese adolescents, raising awareness of the effects of good sleep hygiene on general health in adolescents.
Introduction: Maintaining normothermia during anesthesia is imperative to provide quality patient care and to prevent adverse outcomes. Prolonged laparoscopic procedures have been identified as a potential risk factor for hypothermia, due to continuous insufflation of cold and dry carbon dioxide. Perioperative hypothermia is associated with increased hospital cost and many complications including; impaired drug metabolism, impaired immune function, cardiac morbidity, shivering, coagulopathy.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effective use of FNA before surgery for nodules over 3 cm in diameter.
Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed the results of ultrasound-guided FNA and postoperative histological analysis in 843 nodules >3 cm.
Background: The precise clinical description of skin lesions observed in some patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) can be extremely difficult.
Objective: Establishing a validated glossary of terms allowing the best possible description of lesions observed in HS patients.
Material And Methods: Five international experts of HS were to assess a series of 25 photos representing typical lesions of this disorder.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the gestational age determined by crown-rump length (CRL) measurements in first-trimester ultrasounds for pregnancies conceived naturally versus those achieved through IVF.
- A cohort of 6,739 patients was analyzed, revealing a significant difference in gestational age accuracy, with IVF pregnancies showing a greater discrepancy (2.3 days) compared to natural pregnancies (0.84 days).
- Findings suggest the need for tailored ultrasonographic growth curves for pregnancy conceived via assisted reproductive technology, as well as highlighting potential areas for further research into the differences in CRL development between these two groups.
