Article Synopsis
  • The study reports three cases of early severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in patients treated with a GnRH antagonist protocol using a GnRH agonist trigger, which led to hospitalization and peritoneal drainage.
  • All three patients displayed severe symptoms like abdominal distension and required supportive care; they showed significant improvement and complete recovery within 20 days post-hospitalization.
  • The findings emphasize that using a GnRH agonist trigger may not fully prevent OHSS, indicating that clinicians should remain vigilant in managing such risks, even without administering hCG.

Nuclear power is growing in demand as a promising sustainable energy source, its most prevalent source being uranium salts. The resulting processing and transportation of uranium raise concerns regarding the environmental impact and risks for human health. Close proximity to uranium mines puts populations at higher risk for exposure due to elevated uranium concentrations.

An ever-growing demand for uranium in various industries raises concern for human health of both occupationally exposed personnel and the general population. Toxicological effects related to uranium (natural, enriched, or depleted uranium) intake involve renal, pulmonary, neurological, skeletal, and hepatic damage. Absorbed uranium is filtered by the kidneys and excreted in the urine, thus making uranium detection in urine a primary indication for exposure and body burden assessment.
