Dr Md Mahbubor Rahman, Associate Professor, Department of Medicine, Shaheed Monsur Ali Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh; E-mail:
Hypertension is the leading risk factor for death and disability globally, particularly in Bangladesh. Serum calcium is supposed to be linked with the pathophysiology of hypertension, though various studies have shown contradictory results. Hence, this study was conducted to evaluate the role of serum calcium level in essential hypertensive patients.

Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel, Petah Tikva, Israel.
Objective: Few studies have reported risk factors for post-thyroidectomy hypoparathyroidism (HPT) in children. We aimed to identify predicting factors for transient and permanent HPT after total thyroidectomy in pediatric patients.
Study Design: Retrospective review of medical charts.
Prediction of hospitalization time probability for COVID-19 patients with statistical and machine learning methods using blood parameters.
Ann Med Surg (Lond)
December 2024
Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Mathematical Sciences, University of Guilan, Rasht, Iran.
Objectives: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may induce life-threatening complications and lead to death in the patients.
Method: The aim of this study was to describe a predictive model for the disease outcome (length of hospitalization and mortality) by using blood parameters results at the admission time of 201 patients with positive RT-PCR test for the infection. Variables including; age, sex, comorbidity risk factors, the length of hospitalization, and 25 blood parameters results at the time of admission were considered.
How dialysis frequency and duration impact uremic toxin and fluid removal: a pediatric perspective.
Pediatr Nephrol
December 2024
Department of Pediatric Nephrology, Ghent University Hospital, Ghent, Belgium.
Three-weekly 4-h hemodialysis/hemodiafiltration (HD/HDF) per week has become the "standard HD/HDF" regimen in children across the globe, although increasingly criticized, since crucial determinants such as residual kidney function and patient preferences are not considered. As a consequence, several children fail to achieve adequate dialysis while on a "standard HD/HDF." In these circumstances, an extended dialysis prescription such as short daily (2-3 h/session, 5-7 days a week) or nocturnal HD/HDF (6-9 h/session, 3-5 days a week), either at home or in a dialysis center, may be considered.

- Total thyroidectomy can lead to postoperative hypocalcemia, which may be temporary or permanent, with calcium being vital for various bodily functions.
- The study analyzed data from patients who underwent the surgery, focusing on those with retrosternal extension and central compartment clearance to compare the incidence and severity of hypocalcemia.
- Results indicated a higher risk of hypocalcemia in patients with retrosternal extension and those undergoing extensive surgical procedures, with some patients needing long-term calcium supplementation.
