Understanding Radiology Discrepancies: A Case Cross-Sectional CT Study in a Tertiary Care Setting.

Introduction:  In modern healthcare, computed tomography (CT) is essential for diagnosing a wide range of medical conditions, particularly in emergency settings where timely evaluation of critical areas such as the brain, thorax, abdomen, and pelvis is crucial. However, the increasing reliance on provisional reports generated by postgraduates during on-call hours introduces challenges, as discrepancies often arise between these initial reports and final assessments by senior radiologists. These discrepancies can affect patient outcomes, particularly in complex cases, underscoring the need for studies that evaluate the patterns and clinical relevance of discrepancies across multiple CT modalities.

Decoding Acute Scrotum: Diagnostic Accuracy of Ultrasound in Urgent Clinical Settings.

Background Acute scrotum is a medical emergency commonly encountered in clinical practice, particularly in pediatric and adolescent populations. It is characterized by sudden onset of scrotal pain and may involve swelling, redness, or tenderness. The most common etiologies include testicular torsion, epididymo-orchitis, trauma, and, less frequently, tumors.

Critical assessment of recent advancements in chitosan-functionalized iron and geopolymer-based adsorbents for the selective removal of arsenic from water.

Inorganic arsenic (As), a known carcinogen and major contaminant in drinking water, affects over 140 million people globally, with levels exceeding the World Health Organization's (WHO) guidelines of 10 μg L. Developing innovative technologies for effluent handling and decontaminating polluted water is critical. This paper summarizes the fundamental characteristics of chitosan-embedded composites for As adsorption from water.

Fabrication of MoS restrained magnetic chitosan polysaccharide composite for the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes.

Chitosan (CS) polysaccharide is expected to exhibit greater ionic conductivity, which can be attributed to its increased amino group content when it is blended with different semiconducting materials. Herein, the work used this conducting ability of chitosan and prepared a heterogeneous MoS-induced magnetic chitosan (MF@CS) composite via the co-precipitation method, which was used to scrutinize the catalytic performance with Methylene Blue (MB) and Malachite Green (MG) dyes by visible light irradiation. The saturation magnetization value of the MF@CS composite is found to be 7.

Construction of surface-rich MoS nanoflowers decorated on 2D layered MXene nanohybrid heterostructure for highly efficient and rapid degradation of oxytetracycline.

In this study, we successfully developed a hybrid architecture referred to as MoS@MX, involving the integration of MoS layered onto MXene using a straightforward co-precipitation method. This innovative hybrid photocatalyst exhibited remarkable efficiency in removing oxytetracycline (OTC) molecules from aqueous solutions under visible-light irradiation. During the photocatalytic process, both MoS and MX played distinct yet complementary roles.
