Aim: To analyze risk factors and prognosis of voice disorders after surgical treatment of thyroid and parathyroid diseases.
Material And Methods: There were 1272 patients who were operated in the endocrine surgery department for the period from January 1, 2016 to April 30, 2017. We studied the incidence of VF paresis, VF paralysis, and persistent dysphonia as clinical outcomes. Potential risk factors have to be analyzed were sex and age of patients, BMI, diagnosis, surgical technique, thyroid volume, experience of the surgeon and assistant, use of intraoperative neuromonitoring, etc. RESULTS: Significant relationships of risk factors with various complications of thyroid surgery were found. In logistic regression analysis, the independent predictors of complications were the following: 1) for VF paresis - extent of surgery and thyroid volume; 2) for VF paralysis - sex, extent of surgery and thyroid volume; 3) for persistent postoperative dysphonia - age and thyroid volume.
Conclusion: The correlation of various risk factors with development of VF paresis, VF paralysis and persistent dysphonia were identified in patients undergoing thyroid and parathyroid surgery.

Background And Hypothesis: Unlike X-linked or autosomal recessive Alport Syndrome, no clear genotype/phenotype correlation has yet been demonstrated in patients carrying a single variant of COL4A3 or COL4A4.
Methods: We carried out a multicenter retrospective study to assess the risk factors involved in renal survival in patients presenting a single pathogenic variant on COL4A3 or COL4A4.
Results: 97 patients presenting a single pathogenic variant of COL4A3 or COL4A4 were included.

Background: A preterm neonate is defined by the World Health Organization as a child delivered before 37 weeks of gestation. In low- and middle-income countries, including Ethiopia, preterm-related complications are serious health problems due to increases in the mortality and morbidity of newborns and children under 5 years of age. The aim of this study was to assess the time to neonatal mortality and its predictors among preterm neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit in northern Ethiopia, 2023/2024.

Background: Piperine, a secondary metabolite, affects the antihyperlipidemic effect of Ezetimibe (EZ). Hyperlipidemia is one of the independent risk factors for cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis. Antihyperlipidemic drugs are essential for reducing cardiovascular events and patient mortality.
