Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether haemogram parameters are predictive factors for both the severity of the disease and a decision in favor of surgical treatment in patients with an established diagnosis of cubital tunnel syndrome (CuTS)
Methods: The medical files of patients with a diagnosis of CuTS who were followed-up conservatively (n=92) or surgically treated (n=92) were retrospectively screened and the haemogram parameters were recorded
Results: The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis revealed an area of 0.665 under the curve, with 76.3% sensitivity and 84.
Spontaneously developed paraplegia in a patient with Factor V Leiden mutation.
Spinal Cord Ser Cases
April 2016
Article Synopsis
- Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation is caused by a specific genetic change (G1691A), affecting blood clotting and leading to increased risk of complications.
- A patient with this mutation developed complete paraplegia after surgery for a spinal hematoma while on anticoagulant therapy.
- This case is significant as it is the first documented instance of paraplegia resulting from intramedullary hematoma linked to anticoagulant use in a patient with Factor V mutation.
Objectives: This study aims to determine the relationship between atrial electromechanical delay (EMD), carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), and epicardial fat thickness (EFT) in ankylosing spondylitis (AS), which has a complicated inflammatory nature.
Patients And Methods: The study population included 42 consecutive patients with AS (28 males, 14 females; mean age 39.3±8.
Aim: To investigate whether there is a relation between neutrophillymphocyte (N/L) and platelet- lymphocyte (P/L) ratios and epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
Methods: Thirty patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis and 25 healthy people (controls) were included in the study. Age, gender, body mass index (BMI), height, hemogram, sedimentation, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, CRP, hepatic and renal function tests, lipid profile of the all patients were recorded.
