AI Article Synopsis
- The most common injuries to the female genital tract are due to obstetric trauma, but significant numbers also occur from non-obstetric causes.
- Two cases of vaginal injuries from bull goring were reported at a rural medical college in South India within two months, one resulting in a large vulval hematoma.
- Both patients underwent surgery after stabilizing their blood pressure and received blood transfusions along with antibiotics, leading to a smooth recovery post-operation.
Article Abstract
Although an obstetrically related trauma is the most common cause of the injuries to the female genital tract, non obstetric causes also lead to a significant number of vaginal and vulval injuries. We present 2 cases of vaginal injury, due to bull goring, one of which was associated with massive vulval haematoma. The 2 cases presented in a span of 2 months, in a rural medical college in South India. Both of them were managed surgically, following an initial haemodynamic resuscitation. They also required blood transfusions and an antibiotic prophylaxis. The postoperative period was uneventful.

Background: The relationship between the extent and severity of stress-induced ischemia and the extent and severity of anatomic coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with obstructive CAD is multifactorial and includes the intensity of stress achieved, type of testing used, presence and extent of prior infarction, collateral blood flow, plaque characteristics, microvascular disease, coronary vasomotor tone, and genetic factors. Among chronic coronary disease participants with site-determined moderate or severe ischemia, we investigated associations between ischemia severity on stress testing and the extent of CAD on coronary computed tomography angiography.
Methods: Clinically indicated stress testing included nuclear imaging, echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, or nonimaging exercise tolerance test.

Managing gross maxillofacial injuries poses significant challenges due to potential complications such as airway obstruction, cervical spine injuries, and damage to cranial structures. The resultant deformities from these injuries can have enduring psychological effects, which, if left unaddressed, can be devastating. This report outlines an approach for a patient with a history of a bull gore injury wherein a 49-year-old male presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, reporting an alleged animal attack.

Department of Medicine, Stanford University, CA (D.J.M.).
Background: ISCHEMIA (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches) did not find an overall reduction in cardiovascular events with an initial invasive versus conservative management strategy in chronic coronary disease; however, there were conservative strategy participants who underwent invasive coronary angiography early postrandomization (within 6 months). Identifying factors associated with angiography in conservative strategy participants will inform clinical decision-making in patients with chronic coronary disease.
Methods: Factors independently associated with angiography performed within 6 months of randomization were identified using Fine and Gray proportional subdistribution hazard models, including demographics, region of randomization, medical history, risk factor control, symptoms, ischemia severity, coronary anatomy based on protocol-mandated coronary computed tomography angiography, and medication use.
RNA Interference With Zilebesiran for Mild to Moderate Hypertension: The KARDIA-1 Randomized Clinical Trial.
JAMA
March 2024
Cardiovascular Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts.
Importance: Angiotensinogen is the most upstream precursor of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, a key pathway in blood pressure (BP) regulation. Zilebesiran, an investigational RNA interference therapeutic, targets hepatic angiotensinogen synthesis.
Objective: To evaluate antihypertensive efficacy and safety of different zilebesiran dosing regimens.
