Background: Hemorrhage during rhinoplasty may impair the surgeon's visibility. Our objective was to examine the impact of subcutaneously administered Tranexamic acid (TXA) on bleeding during rhinoplasty.
Methods: A three-blind randomized clinical trial including 60 patients undergoing nose surgery was conducted to compare the effects of two different anesthetic solutions on surgery results.
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a long-term disorder characterized by frequent blockages in the upper respiratory tract during sleep, often leading to abrupt awakenings, with or without a decrease in oxygen levels. The systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) on blood interleukin (IL) levels of IL-6, IL-10, IL-18, IL-1β, IL-4, and IL-17 in OSA adults.
Materials And Methods: The published databases from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from 2003 to 2024, without any restrictions.
Introduction: The aim was to design a meta-analysis evaluating the positron emission tomography (PET) uptake and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), circulating levels of amyloid-β (Aβ), and tau proteins OSA group versus control group, as well as the association of these biomarkers with the severity of OSA.
Material And Methods: Four databases were searched until April 17, 2023, without any restrictions. The effect sizes were the standardized mean difference (SMD) along with a 95% confidence interval (CI).
