Rationale: Ovarian tumor torsion is a critical gynecological emergency, predominantly affecting women of reproductive age, with benign teratomas being the most common culprits. In contrast, malignant ovarian tumors, such as mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, infrequently present with torsion due to their invasive and angiogenic characteristics. The occurrence of torsion in malignant tumors complicates diagnosis and management, particularly when associated with complications like congestion, infarction, and internal bleeding.

A 57-year-old man with a 3-month history of lower abdominal pain and rectal bleeding with black stools underwent urgent abdominal CT, which revealed an ovoid hyperdense lesion in the ileum in the right iliac fossa. The prime differential was a midgut neuroendocrine tumor. Thus, the patient was referred for a 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT scan, which demonstrated intense activity in this lesion with no evidence of somatostatin receptor expression elsewhere.

Chest and abdomen radiographs are the most common radiograph examinations conducted in the Dubai Health sector, with both involving exposure to several radiosensitive organs. Diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) are accepted as an effective safety, optimization, and auditing tool in clinical practice. The present work aims to establish a comprehensive projection and weight-based structured DRL system that allows one to confidently highlight healthcare centers in need of urgent action.

The pattern and burden of non-communicable diseases in armed conflict-exposed populations in Northeastern Nigeria.
PeerJ
January 2025
Department of Nursing and Public Health, University of Northern Iowa, Iowa, United States of America.
Background: The risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in conflict and post-conflict settings in Northeastern Nigeria has not been evaluated to date. As this region undergoes recovery, understanding the prevalence of NCDs, such as hypertension, diabetes, depression, and obesity, and the associated behavioral coping mechanisms, is crucial for developing tailored healthcare solutions. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the impact of conflict on the prevalence of NCDs in conflict-exposed areas in Northeastern Nigeria compared with non-conflict regions.
