An analysis of 1458 case histories of patients with a combined trauma has shown that 276 of the patients died, the lethality was 18.9%. The severity of each injury was estimated by the AIS scale, the severity of combined traumas--by the ISS scale. The syndrome of mutual aggravation of injuries manifested itself most brightly in the cases where one or more main injuries were dangerous for life. Of the greatest importance was an addition of the closed chest trauma to the dominating injury that resulted in a greater number of bronchial-pulmonary complications. Severe damages of the loco-motor system increased the number of thrombo- and fat embolism.

Lead (Pb) is the most common contaminant of heavy metals and is widely present in the environment. Destruction of bone structure, malformation of bone development, and loss of bone mass are important pathological features of lead-exposed individuals. However, the exact molecular mechanisms associated with lead exposure and osteogenic injury are still not fully understood.

Asthma is the most prevalent chronic respiratory disease in children, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of its extraesophageal complications of asthma. Both conditions are commonly observed in pediatric outpatient clinics, but the causality between them in children is still debated. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the bidirectional association between asthma and GERD in children.

Article Synopsis
- - Premature ejaculation (PE) and erectile dysfunction (ED) are common issues among men that negatively impact mental health and quality of life, often occurring together, prompting a study to understand their causes and relationships, especially with high-frequency ED.
- - A comprehensive literature review highlighted a correlation between PE and ED, revealing that around one-third of men with ED also experience PE, and over 30% of men with PE report having ED, establishing a potential vicious cycle where attempts to manage one issue can worsen the other.
- - The findings suggest that while PE and ED are interrelated, the specific reasons and factors influencing this relationship remain unclear, indicating a need for further research to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies.

New-onset Takotsubo cardiomyopathy following spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is rare. We report a middle-aged woman without significant cardiovascular risk factors, who initially presented with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) with angiography showing sudden 'pruning' of the coronary artery consistent with SCAD. One week later, the patient returned with recurrent NSTEMI.
