November 2024
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to assess how specific anatomical measurements from X-rays (volar tilt, radial length, radial inclination, and ulnar variance) can help predict deformities in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and diagnose the condition in those with nonspecific wrist pain.
- - A total of 138 participants (98 with rheumatoid arthritis and 40 controls) were evaluated, revealing that those with rheumatoid arthritis had significantly lower volar tilt and radial length compared to the control group, but no differences were found between the rheumatoid arthritis groups with and without deformities.
- - The findings suggest that low volar tilt and radial length may serve as early indications of rheumatoid arthritis on X-rays, potentially aiding in the diagnosis of hard-to-identify cases, especially
Purpose: The management of indeterminate thyroid nodules remains a topic of ongoing debate, particularly regarding the differentiation of malignancy. Somatic mutation analysis offers crucial insights into tumor characteristics. This study aimed to assist the clinical management of indeterminate nodules with somatic mutation analysis.

Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 133 patients diagnosed with 142 histopathologically proven PTCs as per the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification of thyroid neoplasms between January 2013 and May 2023. US features based on the American College of Radiology and European Thyroid Imaging and Reporting Data Systems (TIRADS), and histopathological characteristics of nodules were assessed and compared.
Background: This study aimed to investigate the perspectives, preferences, and clinical experiences regarding using electronic apex locator and apex locator integrated instrumentation of dentists and endodontists.
Methods: A web-based questionnaire consisting of 3 parts and 23 closed-ended questions to achieve the objective of the study was carried out in ethical conditions between August and October 2023. The first part of survey included demographic information, while the second part was about evaluating electronic apex locator usage.
Background: In recent years, automated analyses using novel NLP methods have been used to investigate language abnormalities in schizophrenia. In contrast, only a few studies used automated language analyses in bipolar disorder. To our knowledge, no previous research compared automated language characteristics of first-episode psychosis (FEP) and bipolar disorder (FEBD) using NLP methods.
