Atypical Pelvic Tumors in Children.

Due to the complex anatomy of the pelvis, various tumors may arise in this region. Some of these tumors are well known and have distinctive features that allow them to be identified by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These include sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT), the most prevalent congenital tumor in children, often diagnosed prenatally and most frequently occurring in this anatomical location, and ovarian teratoma, which in its mature form is the most common ovarian neoplasm in children and adolescents.

Atrial Fibrillation Impacts Inpatient Mortality, Length of Stay, Resource Utilization, Blood Transfusion, and Endotracheal Intubation in Cesarean Sections, Natural Spontaneous Deliveries, and Instrumental Deliveries: A Nationwide Analysis (2016-2020).

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is rare during pregnancy and current data on the impact of AF during delivery is scarce. In this study, we aim to analyze the impact of AF in patients who underwent delivery via cesarean section (CS), natural spontaneous delivery (NSD), or instrumental delivery (ID).

Methods: This study analyzed discharge data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2016 to 2020.

Agreement between resting heart rate measured by unattended automated office and office blood pressure measurement, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, or electrocardiography.

The application of unattended blood pressure measurement (uAOBPM) for resting heart rate (RHR) assessment is unknown. To assess the agreement between RHR measured during uAOBPM and other methods, the authors conducted a comparability study with office blood pressure measurement (OBPM), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), and electrocardiogram (ECG) in a group of 110 participants referred for ABPM. RHR measured with uAOBPM (70.

Differences in the Impact of Obesity and Bariatric Surgery on Patients Hospitalized for Atrial Flutter and Atrial Fibrillation: A Nationwide Analysis, 2016-2020.

Background: The "obesity paradox" claims that although obesity is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation, obese patients have lower inpatient mortality when admitted due to atrial fibrillation. This study aims to analyze if the obesity paradox still holds true after weight loss from bariatric surgery.  Methods: This study analyzed discharge data from the National Inpatient Sample, 2016-2020.
