Cutaneous metastasis as the first presentation of poorly differentiated renal cell carcinoma: A case report.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) exhibits a propensity for unusual wide metastasis. Cutaneous metastasis from RCC is a rare and poorly recognized clinical entity. We present a case of cutaneous metastasis of poorly differentiated RCC in 49-year-old male patient.

The Prognostic Utility of Lymphocyte-Based Measures and Ratios in Chemotherapy-Induced Febrile Neutropenia Patients following Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor Therapy.

Chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia is the most widespread oncologic emergency with high morbidity and mortality rates. Herein we present a retrospective risk factor identification study to evaluate the prognostic role of lymphocyte-based measures and ratios in a cohort of chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia patients following granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) therapy. : The electronic medical records at our center were utilized to identify patients with a first attack of chemotherapy-induced febrile neutropenia and were treated accordingly with G-CSF between January 2010 to December 2020.

A Comparative Study of the Respiratory Neonatal Outcomes Utilizing Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate versus a Mixture of Betamethasone Dipropionate and Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate as an Antenatal Corticosteroid Therapy.

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the respiratory neonatal outcomes utilizing antenatal dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) versus a mixture of betamethasone dipropionate and betamethasone sodium phosphate (B-DP/SP) for preterm births.

Patients And Methods: All neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions for prematurity were retrospectively identified at our center in the period between September 2016 and September 2018. Pregnant women expected to give preterm birth and received steroid injections whether it is DSP or B-DP/SP were included in the study.

Complete remission of advanced low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma after aromatase inhibitor therapy: a case report.

Background: Low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma is a rare neoplastic growth in the uterine cavity, representing less than 1% of uterine tumors. Such tumors usually affect premenopausal and perimenopausal women, with a mean age of 46 years. Treatment generally starts with surgical resection of the tumor, followed by chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or hormonal therapy.

Analysis of SLC7A9 gene mutations among Jordanian patients with cystinuria.

Background: Cystinuria is known as a heritable disorder affecting the cysteine reabsorption by renal system as well as the reabsorption of dibasic amino acids. The main objectives of the present study were to identify genetic mutations in SLC7A9 gene associated with cystinuria.

Methods: A cross sectional study design was conducted.

Overactive bladder and associated psychological symptoms: A possible link to vitamin D and calcium.

Introduction: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a prevalent syndrome that is associated with multiple urinary tract symptoms and could affect the patient's quality of life and well-being. Vitamin D is shown to be linked to OAB syndrome, which exacerbated by stress conditions. This study evaluated the relationship between vitamin D status, daily calcium intake and OAB, and the associated psychological symptoms.
