Article Synopsis
- A 51-year-old woman with a painless left breast mass was diagnosed with a rare primary breast hydatid cyst after initial conservative treatment failed and surgery was required.* -
- Imaging showed the cyst as BI-RADS 3, and preoperative tests revealed eosinophilia, which helped in confirming the diagnosis post-surgery.* -
- This case emphasizes the need to consider parasitic infections in breast masses and the importance of a collaborative approach in treatment, especially in areas where such infections are more common.*
The effect of virtual reality for anxiety and pain in dentistry: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Community Dent Health
November 2024
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the impact of virtual reality (VR) on reducing anxiety and pain in dental patients across all age groups and dental procedures.
Methods: Systematic review with comprehensive search of PubMed and Cochrane Library databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing VR interventions with non-VR methods in dental settings up to April 2024. The selection followed the PRISMA-P guidelines.
Synthetic polymers have shown a great impact on every aspect of our life and attained an exponential rise in their production and utilization in the past decades due to their durability, flexibility, moldability, and inexpensive nature. However, the use of natural polymers or development of safe and environment-friendly synthetic bio-based polymers is continuously undergoing for a sustainable future owing to the exhaustion of petroleum-based resources or fossil-based materials, disposal and economical concerns, including government guidelines. In this regard, the development of new sustainable polymers or materials will step up and build a genuinely circular economy by decreasing manufacture or utilization of fossil-based materials as limited reserves.

Within this research, we investigated heparin nebulization through the endotracheal tube and its effect on preventing blockage due to clots and mucus plugs compared to normal saline.
Methods: A double-blind clinical experiment was done on a cohort of 40 pneumonia patients who were intubated and hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz, Iran.
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major health concern among children with the widespread adoption of advanced technologies. However, concerns are growing about the transparency, replicability, biasedness, and overall validity of artificial intelligence studies in medicine.
Objective: We aimed to systematically review the reporting quality of machine learning (ML) studies of pediatric DM using the Minimum Information About Clinical Artificial Intelligence Modelling (MI-CLAIM) checklist, a general reporting guideline for medical artificial intelligence studies.
