Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the epidemiologic factors associated with maxillofacial infections in a sample of Iranian patients.
Methods And Materials: A number of 209 patients, who admitted to Kamyab hospital due to maxillofacial infections, were recruited in this 5-year cross-sectional study. Multiple variables including the offending tooth, type of abscess, clinical signs and symptoms, the type of prescribed antibiotic, type of anesthesia, employed surgical technique, period of hospitalization, and postoperative complications were analyzed using SPSS software.
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) has one of the highest mortality rates in humans worldwide. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) provides clinicians with myocardial metabolic information non-invasively. However, there are some limitations to interpreting SPECT images performed by physicians or automatic quantitative approaches.

- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability, and this study focuses on how certain factors influence the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) in these patients.
- The research analyzed 164 TBI patients and found that those with GIB had more severe injuries, hypotension upon admission, and lower Glasgow Coma Scale scores compared to those without GIB.
- Key predictors for GIB included primary GCS, hypotension at admission, spinal injuries, and intra-axial brain injuries, with GIB linked to poorer neurological outcomes assessed about 18 months later.
Effects of excess sodium consumption on arterial function in C57BL/6 mice.
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol
October 2024
Excess sodium consumption contributes to arterial dysfunction in humans. The C57BL/6 strain of mice has been used to identify mechanisms by which arterial dysfunction occurs after excess sodium consumption. However, there are concerns that C57BL/6 mice have strain-specific resistance to high-sodium (HS) diet-induced hypertension.

In this study, we assessed the feasibility of using changes in radiomic features over time (Delta radiomics: absolute and relative) following chemotherapy, to predict relapse/progression and time to progression (TTP) of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) patients.
Material And Methods: Given the lack of standard staging PET scans until 2011, only 31 out of 103 PMBCL patients in our retrospective study had both pre-treatment and end-of-treatment (EoT) scans.
