Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify reliable predictors of mortality in end-stage renal disease patients undergoing hemodialysis, focusing on the relationship between aortic knob width and patient outcomes.
- Deceased patients were found to have larger aortic knob widths, and those with widths greater than 37.98 mm were at higher risk of mortality, with varying survival rates over 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 years depending on the width.
- Key risk factors influencing aortic knob width included age, male gender, aortic calcification, and hypertension, suggesting that monitoring aortic knob width could be an effective, non-invasive way to predict mortality risk in this patient population.
Background/aim: Data on the role of central sensitization in hemodialyzed patients are scarce. The aim was to identify the impact of central sensitization on quality of life and elucidate the risk factors for the development of central sensitization in patients receiving hemodialysis.
Methods: Central sensitization, quality of life, psychological well-being, and sleep were assessed by the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI), abbreviated version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-BREF), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Jenkins Sleep Evaluation Scale (JSS), respectively.
Background And Aim: The surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth is a standard practice in dentistry. Unfortunately, inflammatory reactions such as discomfort, edema, and trismus frequently jeopardize patients' well-being after the extraction of third molars. Saline solutions at room temperature (25°C) are routinely used in impacted tooth extraction.

This study aimed to identify the association of quantifiable prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters with any and large cribriform pattern at radical prostatectomy (RP) specimens.
Methods: Preoperative prostate MRI's from 188 men undergoing RP between 2010 and 2018 were retrospectively acquired.
