Optimizing Scan Range in Computed Tomography of Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder: A Retrospective Study on Reducing Overscanning.
Medicina (Kaunas)
November 2024
Radiological Sciences Department, College of Applied Medical Sciences, King Saud University, P.O. Box 145111, Riyadh 4545, Saudi Arabia.
: Computed tomography of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder (CT KUB) is essential for evaluating urinary stones but also exposes patients to significant radiation. The scanning field should be minimized to only the necessary area to limit this radiation exposure. This study aims to assess the extent of CT KUB overscanning in renal colic procedures and identify the appropriate vertebral level for starting CT KUB scans.

Article Synopsis
- T wave inversion (TWI) on ECG is common in athletes and can signal either harmless changes or serious heart issues, requiring careful interpretation.
- Understanding TWI involves considering its location, associated symptoms, and patient demographics, which help differentiate between physiological adaptations and pathological conditions.
- The management of athletes with TWI includes thorough diagnostic evaluations, follow-ups, and careful considerations regarding sports participation to prioritize athlete safety without excessive restrictions.
Effect of intramuscular treatment with different iron dextran dosages and non-inferiority study to gleptoferron.
Acta Vet Scand
January 2025
Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, University of Copenhagen, Grønnegårdsvej 2, 1870, Frederiksberg C, Denmark.
Background: Prevention of iron deficiency in suckling piglets by intramuscular injection of a standardized amount of iron dextran or gleptoferron in the first days of life can lead to over- or underdosage with respective health risks. Currently, combined iron products containing an active substance against coccidia are also used on farms. When using a combination product targeting two diseases, an adjustment of the necessary amount of iron to prevent anaemia in the frame of a farm-specific treatment protocol is not possible.

The traditional approach, such as thyroid blind lobectomy, is the most frequent modality of treatment due to the possible unclear localization of the adenoma in the preoperative workup. This increases the risk of unnecessary probability of hypothyroidism.

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the need for adding heparin to parenteral nutrition (PN) on reducing catheter intraluminal obstruction based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in preterm neonates.
Methods: In this randomized controlled blinded non-inferiority trial, neonates with gestational age <32 weeks requiring PICC to receive PN were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups. In the heparin group, 0.
