Is it possible to predict mortality in patients with high-grade blunt liver injury? A single trauma center study.

Background: Blunt abdominal trauma constitutes a significant portion of trauma cases and is often associated with liver injury. Given that high-grade liver injuries remain life-threatening, identifying patients who will likely require more vigilant attention and care is crucial. This study aims to determine the parameters that increase mortality in patients with high-grade liver trauma.

What should be done in patients diagnosed with xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis? Case-control study.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare development of complications, malignancy and confusion rates in the preliminary diagnosis in patients with xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis identified.

Methods: In this study, 2803 patients undergone cholecystectomy between January 2010 and December 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients with xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis identified in the histopathological examination were classified as Group 1 and patients with cholelithiasis, cholecystitis, and malignancy detected were classified as Group 2.

Comparison between mesh fixation and non-fixation in patients undergoing total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair.

Background: The most important advantages of laparoscopic hernia repair include less postoperative pain, good cosmetic results, and early return to daily activities. Different methods and mesh types are used in inguinal hernia repair.

Aims: The objective of this study was to evaluate the complications and recurrence rates in patients who underwent laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair with and without mesh fixation.

Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of novel pyrimidine and pyrimidine-thiadiazole hybrid glycosides.

New 1,3,4-thiadiazole thioglycosides linked to substituted pyrimidines were synthesized glycosylation of 1,3,4-thiadiazole thiol compounds. Also, novel 1,2,3-triazole derivatives linked to carbohydrate units were prepared using the standard click chemistry conditions employing the Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition of substituted-aryl-azides with a selection of alkyne-functionalized sugars. The chemical structures of the new derivatives were verified using various spectroscopic techniques, such as IR, H NMR, C NMR and elemental analyses.
