Background And Objectives: Patients with cutaneous lymphomas (CL) are at an increased risk of developing secondary malignancies. This study aimed to assess the frequency of association between CL and Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and to identify factors that may promote the co-occurrence of these two diseases.
Patients And Methods: On January 25, 2024, we conducted a systematic search of four electronic medical databases to identify all published cases of KS associated with CL.
Mitochondrial holocytochrome c synthase (HCCS) is an essential protein in assembling cytochrome c (cyt c) of the electron transport system. HCCS binds heme and covalently attaches the two vinyls of heme to two cysteine thiols of the cyt c CXXCH motif. Human HCCS recognizes both cyt c and cytochrome c of complex III (cytochrome bc).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFType 1 diabetes (T1D) is a complex chronic condition that places young adults aged 18-31 years at high risk for general and diabetes-related distress and poor cardiovascular health. Both general and diabetes distress are linked to higher A1C, a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this cross-sectional quantitative descriptive study was to examine the associations between distress symptoms (general and diabetes) and cardiovascular health while considering covariates in young adults ages 18-31 years with T1D.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFPurpose: To evaluate RETFound, a foundation artificial intelligence model, using a diverse clinical research dataset to assess its accuracy in detecting glaucoma using optic disc photographs. The model's accuracy for glaucoma detection was evaluated across race, age, glaucoma severity, and various training cycles (epochs) and dataset sample sizes.
Design: Evaluation of a diagnostic technology.
Article Synopsis
- Dentists in the U.S. and Canada tend to prescribe more broad-spectrum antibiotics compared to dentists in certain other Western nations, with a focus on trends in British Columbia.* -
- An analysis of dental prescriptions from 1996 to 2023 showed that antibiotic prescriptions peaked during the COVID-19 pandemic and have remained high, with a typical prescription duration settling at around 7 days.* -
- The study reveals that while there was a decline in antibiotic prescribing before the pandemic, the rates have significantly risen since, highlighting the need for improved prescribing practices in dentistry.*
