Cavernous Hemangioma of the Palatine Tonsil: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Unlabelled: Cavernous hemangiomas are venous malformations characterized by interconnected channels of abnormally dilated blood vessels having low flow of blood. Whilst venous malformations most commonly affect the head and neck region, isolated cavernous hemangiomas of the palatine tonsils are extremely rare; with only 4 cases being reported in the English Literature. We report a case of a 43-year-old female who was referred to us for the evaluation and management of a right tonsillar swelling.

Carcinogenic parasites: Insights into the epidemiology and possible mechanisms of cancer.

Naturally, a wide range of genetic and environmental variables predominate, such as bacterial, viral and parasite infective entities that have been identified as carcinogenic bioagents. Many helminth and protozoan parasitic diseases are liable to cause human cancer. Conveniently, three trematode parasites viz.

Estimation of the domestic water demand‒supply scenario and its key driving factors in the Islamabad-Rawalpindi Metropolitan Area, Pakistan.

Domestic water availability is intricately linked with a growing population, urbanization, and associated land use/land cover change (LULCC). Precise and periodic assessments of water supply and demand are imperative for the sustainability of urban ecosystems. The present study provides a situational analysis of the domestic water supply and demand and LULC to quantify their impacts on water resources in the rapidly growing water scarce metropolitan area of Islamabad-Rawalpindi.

Microsurgical Clipping of Wide-Neck Anterior Circulation Aneurysms: A Case Series From a Low- and Middle-Income Country.

Background Aneurysms of the anterior circulation are the most prevalent of intracranial aneurysms, most of which are saccular. Wide-neck aneurysms (WNAs) are a specific subtype of intracranial aneurysms that are difficult to treat. Adequate endovascular management of such aneurysms requires assistive devices that are either too costly or sometimes unavailable in our setting as a resource-limited country, strongly supporting the resurgence of microsurgical clipping in the management of such understudied aneurysms.

Trends of Mortality due to Traumatic Brain Injury in the USA: A Comprehensive Analysis of CDC WONDER Data from 1999 to 2020.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) poses a significant public health challenge in the United States, with diverse causes and outcomes. Understanding the trends in TBI-related mortality is crucial for effective prevention and intervention strategies. This comprehensive analysis utilized data from the (CDC WONDER) database, covering the period from 1999 to 2020.
