The efficiency of treatment was analyzed in 142 children aged 3-14 years who had local forms of primary pulmonary tuberculosis. Therapy was performed according to regimens 3 and 1, by using individual dosage regimens depending on the extent and severity of a specific process, the presence of complications, and age-related features. In minor tuberculosis, solitary calcifications being detected without signs of the activity of tuberculous infection, the basic course of therapy was 6-8 months; it was performed using 2 drugs in individual cases. In disseminated and complicated processes, eliminated intoxication and visible X-ray inflammatory changes were observed in 58.8-61.7% of children by months 3-4 of treatment, which required a longer intensive phase, by administering 3 drugs in the continuation phase till 6-9 months.

Özel Medicabil Hastanesi, Bursa.
Objectives: Despite the widely recognised high mortality rate among patients with hip fracture, the variation in death rates by gender and cause has been less explored. This study aimed to investigate mortality rates and causes of death in patients who underwent hip fracture surgery, and to compare them with those of the general population. A secondary objective was to compare the results of Internal Fixation versus Arthroplasty in these patients.

Background: Dysbiosis of the lung microbiome can contribute to the initiation and progression of lung cancer. Synchronous multiple primary lung cancer (sMPLC) is an increasingly recognized subtype of lung cancer characterized by high morbidity, difficulties in early detection, poor prognosis, and substantial clinical challenges. However, the relationship between sMPLC pathogenesis and changes in the lung microbiome remains unclear.

Department of Radiology, Frimley Park Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Camberley, Surrey, UK.
Background: The National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) has shown that screening with low dose CT in high-risk population was associated with reduction in lung cancer mortality. These patients are also at high risk of coronary artery disease, and we used deep learning model to automatically detect, quantify and perform risk categorisation of coronary artery calcification score (CACS) from non-ECG gated Chest CT scans.
Materials And Methods: Automated calcium quantification was performed using a neural network based on Mask regions with convolutional neural networks (R-CNN) for multiorgan segmentation.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is an epithelial malignancy commonly associated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. While bone, liver, and lung metastases are well-documented, central nervous system (CNS) involvement, particularly spinal and meningeal metastases, is extremely rare. We present a 41-year-old male with nasal obstruction and diplopia, diagnosed with locally advanced NPC.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the adverse drug events (ADEs) associated with tolvaptan in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database from the fourth quarter of 2009 to the second quarter of 2024.
Methods: After standardizing the data, various signal detection techniques, including Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation Neural Network, and Multi-Item Gamma Poisson Shrinker, were employed for analysis.
Results: Among the 7,486 ADE reports where tolvaptan was the primary suspected drug, a total of 196 preferred terms were identified, spanning 24 different system organ classes.
