Prevalence, clinical, imaging, electroencephalography and laboratory characteristics of seizures in COVID-19.

Background: COVID-19 is the cause of the recent pandemic. Viral infections could increase the risks of neurological impairments, including seizures. Here, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence, clinical, imaging, electroencephalography and laboratory characteristics of seizures in COVID-19.

Visual inspection results of ultrasound guided biopsy specimens and compared with open biopsy pathologic in patients with breast lesions.

Background: Core needle biopsy (CNB) method is a common method and a gold standard for the diagnosis of breast lesions. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of visual inspection of ultrasound guided biopsy specimens with pathologic outcomes in patients with breast lesions.

Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive was conducted on 600 patients with breast lesions who were candidates for ultrasonography with CNB were entered into the study.

Alcohol and multiple sclerosis: an immune system-based review.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Although the exact etiology of multiple sclerosis is unknown, researchers suggest that genetic, environmental, and microbial factors play a central role in causing multiple sclerosis. Pathology of multiple sclerosis is based on inflammation as T cells enter the brain via disruptions in the blood-brain barrier, recognizing myelin as foreign antigen; and as a result, the T cells attack myelin and start the inflammatory processes, enhancing inflammatory cytokines and antibodies.

Feasibility, complication and long-term follow-up of the newly nelaton based urethral dilation method, retrospective study.

Current methods for Urethral dilatation include filiforms and followers, metal sounds, balloon dilators, catheters of increasing size, introduction of a Council catheter over a guidewire, and coaxial dilators of increasing size. These methods however are effective but expensive and use of them is limited in many third world countries. In this retrospective study, we report the feasibility, complication and long-term follow-up of the newly Nelaton based urethral dilation method following by self calibration plan as a single referral center experience.
