Role of in the triggering and evolution of hemorrhagic gastro-duodenal lesions.

The majority of studies concerning () are oriented towards the implication of infection with in processes that end in the formation of neoplasia, without assessing the impact of the bacterium in triggering acute gastroduodenal hemorrhagic episodes. The present study includes 166 patients with upper digestive hemorrhage, admitted to the ATI Clinic, the Gastroenterology Clinic or to the Surgery II Clinic of the County Emergency Clinical Hospital in Craiova, Romania between 2017 and 2019.

Purpose: Verify whether there is a difference in likelihood of developing pulmonary embolism (PE) between pregnant women, nonpregnant women of reproductive age, and postpartum (up to 6 weeks) women, by comparing their outcomes on computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) done for suspicion of PE.

Materials And Methods: Retrospective cohort study of 1463 CTPA done for suspicion of PE in females of reproductive age (18-40 years), nonpregnant, pregnant (antepartum), and postpartum, from 2 tertiary-care academic hospitals between October 2006 and September 2015.

Parathyroid Adenomas in Adults and Adolescents. Critical Appraisal and Surgical Strategy in 18 Cases.

Unlabelled: Our study underline scarcity of isolated case reports or small case series of parathyroid adenoma (PA) published in autochthonous medical literature,their variable clinical expression among the "historic" varieties but also the diagnostic difficulties and delays of diagnosis as well consecration of surgery as the golden therapeutic standard of this disorder.

Patients And Method: Demographic, clinical presentations, laboratory and imaging data, operative findings and procedures together with pathology account and outcome from the case reports of 18 patients with documented PHP were retrospectively analyzed. The male/female ratio was 1/5, with ages ranging from 16 to 58 (mean 46) years.
