Radiofrequency Ablation: A Promising Treatment Method for Abdominal Wall Endometriosis.

Purpose: To evaluate the application of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) as a treatment method for abdominal wall endometriosis (AWE).

Materials And Methods: The characteristics of the AWE lesions in the patients were obtained using ultrasound (US). The patients received general and local anesthesia, and then, AWE lesions were divided into 1 cm sections visually, and each of these sections underwent US-guided RFA using the moving shot technique.

Acute Necrotizing Encephalopathy in Adult Patients With COVID-19: A Systematic Review of Case Reports and Case Series.

Background And Purpose: Acute necrotizing encephalopathy (ANE) is a rare neurological disorder that is often associated with viral infections. Since the emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a few COVID-19-associated ANE cases have been reported. Since very little is known about ANE, the present study aimed to determine the clinical, biochemical, and radiological characteristics of affected patients.

Prevalence of transient congenital hypothyroidism among neonates.

Objective: Persistence of low levels of thyroid hormone from the time of birth is one of the significant causes of the mental retardation. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of transient congenital hypothyroidism among neonates in (XXX).

Methods: This cross-sectional study, neonates aged 3-5 days who were referred to our center for checkup were screened for thyroid stimulating hormone.

Elderberry diet ameliorates motor function and prevents oxidative stress-induced cell death in rat models of Huntington disease.

Huntington's disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder which begins in the striatum and then spreads to other neural areas. Known as a progressive movement cognitive disorder, HD has no efficient therapy. Although the exact mechanism of HD is still unknown, several different etiological processes such as oxidative stress have been shown to play critical roles.

The effect of 3-nitropropionic acid on behavioral dysfunction, neuron loss and gliosis in the brain of adult male rats: The case of prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and the cerebellum.

3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP) is a mycotoxin widely used to produce a rat model of Huntington's disease. While there are numerous studies on the effect of this neurotoxin, still further investigation is required to understand the influence of this toxin on different regions of the brain. In the present study, there are two groups of rats of which one is treated with 3-NP.
