The Effect of Local Cold Therapy on Myalgia Pain.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of local cold therapy in reducing myalgia pain levels among emergency room patients.

Methods: This was a pre-test/post-test randomized controlled study. Standard treatment (non-steroid analgesic anti-inflammatory parenteral medications) was implemented with one group, while the other groups received cold therapy and standard treatment.

Severe Early-Onset Obesity and Diabetic Ketoacidosis due to a Novel Homozygous c.169C>T p.Arg57* Variant in Gene.

Introduction: Early-onset severe obesity is usually the result of an underlying genetic disorder, and several genes have recently been shown to cause syndromic and nonsyndromic forms of obesity. The " () gene encodes for a centrosomal and ciliary protein. Homozygous variants in the gene are extremely rare causes of early-onset severe monogenic obesity.

Implementation of a high fidelity simulation based training program for physicians of children requiring long term invasive home ventilation: a study by ISPAT team.

Introduction: The number of children requiring long-term invasive home ventilation (LTIHV) has increased worldwide in recent decades. The training of physicians caring for these children is crucial since they are at high risk for complications and adverse events. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of a comprehensive high-fidelity simulation-based training program for physicians caring for children on LTIHV.

Is magnetic resonance imaging or cone beam computed tomography alone adequate for the radiological diagnosis of symptomatic temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis? A retrospective study.

This study was performed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) alone and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone in patients with clinical symptoms of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA). Fifty-two patients (83 joints) with clinical signs of TMJ-OA were included in the study. Two examiners evaluated CBCT and MRI images.
