An interesting platform for the construction of novel ,'-bis(2-(arylazo)-2-(aroyl)vinyl)ethane-1,2-diamines is reported in this work. These bis-arylazo compounds were assembled based on the reaction of ethylenediamine with various 2-arylhydrazono-3-oxopropanals in aqueous conditions under both conventional stirring and microwave conditions at ambient temperature. The factors affecting the optimization conditions were intensively practiced.

Objective: This study aimed to gain a better understanding of common thyroid diseases and to explore the associated risk factors in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
Methods: A case-control study was carried out after obtaining all thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) results done in a primary healthcare setting from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 from the Health Information Department.
Background: Trabecular metal is being increasingly used in primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study compared medium-term (< 15 years) outcomes of fiber mesh titanium and trabecular metal acetabular components.
Methods: This study included 6,563 patients who underwent primary THA with either fiber mesh titanium or trabecular metal-backed acetabular components.
Transabdominal migration of a gossypiboma to the thoracic cavity: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
November 2024
Introduction: Textiloma, or gossypiboma, is a rare oversight in thoracic surgery involving retained surgical sponges, with the potential for serious complications like chronic pain and infection. This case highlights a 29-year-old woman with a transdiaphragmatic migrated gossypiboma following liver surgery.
Case Presentation: A-29 years old woman presented with dyspnea, abdominal pain, and fever, with imaging revealing a suspected hepatic abscess.
Article Synopsis
- Gossypiboma refers to the accidental retention of surgical gauze after operations, with a rare case of a 90 cm x 90 cm towel migrating into the gastric cavity being reported in this paper.* -
- A 33-year-old woman experienced recurrent epigastric pain after a cholecystectomy performed 11 years prior, leading to the discovery of a foreign body in her stomach, initially misdiagnosed as malignancy or bezoar.* -
- The successful removal of the retained surgical towel through open surgery highlighted the importance of early detection and meticulous sponge counting to prevent serious complications from gossypiboma.*
