  • The study analyzed data from 285 patients with confirmed Ebola virus disease (EVD) treated at Jui Government Hospital in Sierra Leone during the 2014-2015 outbreak, focusing on recovery and mortality rates.
  • Out of the 285 patients, 146 recovered, leading to an overall survival rate of 51.23%, with very young children (under 6 years) having the lowest survival at 37.50%.
  • Key factors that predicted poor outcomes included high blood viral load, confusion, abdominal pain, vomiting, and conjunctivitis, with most deaths occurring within the first week of hospitalization.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the treatment efficacy and cost of two therapies, splenectomy and thrombopoietin, in order to optimize the treatment plans for patients with HCV-associated cirrhosis. A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted on 69 patients with a platelet count <60,000/mm that were enrolled between 2009 and 2013, including 38 cases as the research group and 31 cases as the observed group. The study included two stages: A 4-week initial treatment and a 48-week antiviral treatment, during which a number of parameters were evaluated, including platelet count, liver stiffness measure, albumin, total bilirubin, alanine aminotranferase and treatment cost-effectiveness.

Background: Glycine powder air-polishing (GPAP) has the potential to effectively erase biofilms and may improve the treatment efficacy of peri-implant mucositis. This pilot clinical trial evaluated the effect of GPAP as an adjunct in treating peri-implant mucositis.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-four subjects having at least one implant with peri-implant mucositis were randomly assigned to test (12 subjects with 17 implants) and control (12 subjects with 16 implants) groups.

Objective: To investigate clinical features of the patients with hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (AHE).

Methods: Totally 625 consecutive patients enrolled from Dec 2002 to Dec 2006 were studied retrospectively. All of the patients were subclassified into acute hepatitis E group (AHE=437 cases) and Superinfected Group (S=188 cases), and S group was further divided into the group of chronic hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (CHB+AHE, 130 cases) and the group of liver cirrhosis and hepatitis B superinfected with acute hepatitis E (LCB+AHE, 58 cases).

Background: To investigate the effect of Oxymatrine (OM) on serum cholinesterase (ChE) during the treatment of viral hepatitis and the relationship between the change of ChE and the change of albumin (ALB), prothrombin activity (PTA) and other liver function tests.

Methods: A total of 98 patients with viral hepatitis were divided into four groups. Group A consisted of 31 patients and were treated with OM intravenous infusion; Group B consisted of 30 patients, treated with OM orally; Group C consisted of 7 patients and were treated with OM intramuscular injection while Group D consisted of 30 patients, and were not treated with OM.
