Correlation of Clinical Course with Computed Tomography Findings and Biochemical Parameters at the Time of Admission in COVID-19 Patients.

Objective: The primary objective of our study was to evaluate the predictive performance of serum inflammatory markers and the semiquantitative computed tomography severity scoring system on diagnosing the Covid 2019 disease and its course.

Methods: Our study is a single-center retrospective cohort study. The data of 213 adults who were confirmed to have coronavirus disease 2019 by polymerase chain reaction tests in the period between April 2020 and August 2020 were evaluated.

Measuring the shape and dimensions of normal the bony structures in the craniovertebral junction from computed tomography images of the pediatric age group.

Background: The aim of this study is to contribute to the literature by determining the morphometric reference values of the bony structures in the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) from computer tomography (CT) images of the pediatric age group.

Methods: In this study, CT's of 151 simple trauma patients aged between 3 and 15 years between 2016 and 2020 were evaluated. All CT examinations were performed using a 32-slice CT and included images of the skull base and C1-C2 junction.

A case report of left paraduodenal hernia diagnosed preoperatively and treated laparoscopically.

Paraduodenal hernia is a rare congenital anomaly; however, it is the most common cause of internal herniation. Clinical findings are often indeterminate. Computerized tomography is usually diagnostic; however, the diagnosis is often made intra-operatively.

Mean platelet volume and mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in risk stratification of pulmonary embolism.

Background And Objective: Recently, some of the hemogram parameters were reported to predict early death in acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The aim of this study was to investigate the role of mean platelet volume (MPV) and MPV/platelet count ratio (MPV/P), WBC and red cell distribution width (RDW) in risk stratification of patients with acute PE.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with acute PE admitted to the Emergency Department.
