Tuberculosis Causing a Pectoral Mass Mimicking Malignancy: A Rare Presentation of Tuberculosis.

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that may involve all systems, with the respiratory system being the most commonly affected. Tuberculosis of the chest wall and its structures is rare, in which malignancy and abscess may be counted among possible differential diagnoses. In this case report, a patient with pectoral muscle tuberculosis will be presented.

Periorbital Tuberculosis: A Rare Case of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis.

Purpose: Orbital/periorbital tuberculosis (TB) is an uncommon manifestation of extrapulmonary TB, presenting diagnostic challenges due to its varied clinical features that can mimic other diseases. This report aims to present a rare case of periorbital TB in a young man.

Methods: Case report.

Synthesis of Cyclodextrin-Based Multifunctional Biocompatible Hydrogels and Their Use in the Prevention of Intrauterine Adhesions (Asherman's Syndrome) after Surgical Injury.

Asherman's syndrome, which can occur during the regeneration of damaged uterine tissue after surgical interventions, is a significant health problem in women. This study aimed to acquire and characterize cyclodextrin-based hydrogels, which can be used to prevent Asherman's syndrome, and investigate their effectiveness with biomedical applications. A series of hydrogels were synthesized from the cross-linking of β-cyclodextrin and different polyphenols with epoxy-functional PEG.

Effects of intracerebroventricular and intravenous administration of Kisspeptin-54 and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist in rats with ovarian hyperstimulation.

Purpose: We aim to determine the effect of local and systemic administration of kisspeptin-54 on ovarian hyperstimulation.

Methods: Immature female rats were used. In order to generate the ovarian hyperstimulation model, 50 IU PMSG was administered for 4 consecutive days and a single dose of 25 IU hCG was administered to all groups except for the sham group.

The effect of bovine serum albumin-glutaraldehyde and polyethylene glycol polymer on local tissue reaction and inflammation in rabbit carotid artery anastomosis.

Objectives: In addition to the hemostatic properties of hemostatic agents, the investigation of their immunogenic properties, their local effects on application area has been the subject of many experimental studies. There are limited data on the inflammatory effects of Bovine serum albumin-glutaraldehyde and Polyethylene glycol polymer. Therefore, we investigated the effects of these agents on tissue reactions and inflammation in rabbit carotid artery anastomosis in our experimental study.
