Article Synopsis
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is linked to serious health issues like venous thromboembolism and higher death rates, making early post-traumatic prophylaxis (PTP) important for patient recovery.
- A systematic review analyzed data from 20 studies with over 87,000 patients, revealing that early PTP significantly cuts the risks of VTE, DVT, PE, and overall mortality compared to later administration.
- The results emphasize the effectiveness of early pharmacologic thromboprophylaxis in improving outcomes for TBI patients, although the timing of administration (within 48 hours) is particularly critical for achieving statistical significance.
Article Synopsis
- Carcinoma en cuirasse is a rare skin metastasis mainly linked to breast cancer in women, showing up as various skin lesions, often long after the original cancer diagnosis.
- Diagnosis is difficult but can be confirmed through histological examination to differentiate it from other skin issues.
- Treatment options are not clearly established because there are few reported cases, highlighted by a case of a 30-year-old woman whose breast cancer developed into carcinoma en cuirasse within 6 months.
Aim: The efficacy and safety of bivalirudin when used concurrently with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (GPI) is uncertain. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bivalirudin versus heparin in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to explore the impact of differential use (greater and balanced) of GPI.
Methods: Online databases were queried from inception to March 2023 to identify eight randomized controlled trials (n = 22,483) for inclusion.
Article Synopsis
- * Diagnosis is often tricky since common physical symptoms can be vague, highlighting the need for advanced imaging techniques like ultrasonography to confirm the condition.
- * In a reported case of a 40-year-old woman with abdominal pain and swelling, laparotomy mesh repair was necessary after imaging assisted in diagnosing the hernia, stressing the importance of prompt treatment to avoid complications.
Aim: Statin therapy is considered the gold standard for treating hypercholesterolemia. This updated meta-analysis aims to compare the efficacy and safety of a low/moderate-intensity statin in combination with ezetimibe compared with high-intensity statin monotherapy in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).
Methods: A systematic search of two databases (PubMed and Cochrane CENTRAL) was conducted from inception to January 2023 and a total of 21 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were identified and included in the analysis.
Key Clinical Message: Accidental displacement of mandibular third molars or their roots into neighboring anatomical spaces, notably the submandibular region, during extraction, is a rare but significant complication. Comprehensive preoperative assessment, meticulous surgical techniques, and precise radiographic imaging play pivotal roles in successful management. Adhering to established protocols is imperative to mitigate potential complications and ensure optimal outcomes.

Introduction: Obesity had been the most neglected public health problem increasing at an alarming rate affecting both the developed and developing countries. Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease which is highly prevalent worldwide affecting 20-50% of the global population. Thus, a research was conducted to evaluate the relationship between obesity and periodontal disease among 35-44-year-old patients who were visiting the Oral Medicine and Radiology Department (OMDR) in TMDCRC, Moradabad.

In an attempt to decrease its mortality, screening guidelines recommend mammograms, breast self-examinations, and breast clinical examinations for women above the age of 40. Compliance to these guidelines have been found to be significantly low in Muslim women which has been linked to their perceptions of religious guidelines regarding modesty and fatalism.
