Background: The jaws can be affected by several lesions that manifest in the oral cavity, but little is known about non-odontogenic benign and malignant lesions and their radiological findings.
Introduction: Our aim was to discuss the imaging findings of non-odontogenic jaw lesions to help the surgeon in the diagnosis and formulating a differential diagnosis for this vast spectrum of jaw lesions with overlapping clinical and imaging appearances.
Methods: CT and MR images of the mandible, maxillofacial region, and neck were retrieved from the archive of the Radiology Department of Pamukkale University for the duration between 2012-2023 and assessed.
Evaluation of vascular reactivity of young male hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism patients.
Int J Cardiovasc Imaging
January 2010
Article Synopsis
- The study compared the vascular reactivity of young male patients with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and healthy controls, focusing on their blood vessel responses.
- Both patient and control groups underwent ultrasound measurements of the brachial artery during different tests, revealing that hypogonadal patients showed higher dilation responses compared to controls.
- The findings suggest that low male sex hormones negatively affect vascular reactivity, potentially through changes in lipid profiles, specifically HDL levels and baseline vessel diameter.
The aim of this study was to investigate the endothelial dysfunction (ED) and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in patients with glycogen storage disease (GSD) types Ia and III. In 22 patients with GSD (13, type Ia; 9, type III) and 18 healthy subjects, endothelial functions of the brachial artery and carotid IMT were evaluated by high-resolution ultrasound. Endothelial-dependent dilatation (EDD) was assessed by establishing reactive hyperemia.
