Clinicopathological Significance of Defective DNA Mismatch Repair in Endometrial Carcinoma: A Single-Center Study From Bahrain.

Introduction:  Endometrial carcinoma, the most prevalent gynecologic malignancy in developed countries, represents a significant public health issue worldwide. DNA mismatch repair (dMMR) deficiency is an important molecular mechanism in endometrial carcinoma development, clinical course, and prognosis.

Aims And Objectives:  This study aimed to determine the incidence and histological subtypes of endometrial carcinoma among Bahraini women, evaluate the prevalence of MMR deficiency using immunohistochemistry in these patients and analyze the association between MMR deficiency and clinicopathological features, including potential links to Lynch syndrome.

A Retrospective Study of the Epidemiology, Histomorphological Features, Hormonal Status, and Radiological Features of Breast Cancer Diagnosed on Biopsies in Women in Bahrain Up to the Age of 40: A Single-Center Study.

Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women worldwide. There are many risk factors that contribute to breast cancer which involve modifiable and non-modifiable factors. Most of the patients diagnosed with breast cancer are over 50 years of age, with breast cancer in women less than 40 years of age being relatively rare and typically more aggressive variants.

Treatment Satisfaction Among Bahraini Patients With Psoriasis: A Single Center Cross-Sectional Study Using the PsoSat Questionnaire.

Introduction: Psoriasis has a considerable negative impact on a patient's life. However, the treatment prescribed plays a crucial role in their quality of life. Treatment satisfaction is one of the fundamental elements when it comes to patient care for psoriasis (PsO).

A Rare Concurrence of Myelodysplastic Neoplasia and Tetrasomy 8 in a 3-Year-Old Bahraini Male.

Myelodysplastic neoplasia (MDS) is a group of stem cell disorders involving ineffective hematopoiesis. It can be associated with an increased risk of progression toward acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In Bahrain, MDS is the fifth most common primary hematologic malignancy.

The Pattern of Expression of Human Placental Lactogen Across Normal, Lactational, and Malignant Mammary Epithelium.

The immunoexpression of human placental lactogen (hPL) in mammary epithelium is not well studied in the literature. Our overall objective was to delineate the distribution pattern of hPL across mammary epithelia of varying levels of differentiation. This is the first research to study the level of expression of hPL in human lactational change epithelium.
