Background: Although the number of studies reporting war-induced effects on the health of the Ukrainian population has been growing, there are still little data on assessing patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) during the war. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of war on T2D patients' health to define key risk factors promoting disease progression.
Methods: A survey covering various aspects of T2D patients' experience and glycemic control data was conducted from June 2022 to February 2024.

Introduction: Contemporary data regarding the impact of war on cardiovascular disease is scarce. The Israel-Gaza war that erupted on October 7th, 2023, provided a tragic opportunity to explore the effect of war on the epidemiology, characteristics, and management of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) living in areas of active armed conflict.
Methods: All patients admitted with ACS to our medical center, between October 7th, 2023, and January 6th, 2024, were retrospectively included.

Head trauma from blast exposure is a growing health concern, particularly among active military personnel, and is considered the signature injury of the Gulf War. However, it remains elusive whether fundamental differences exist between blast-related traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and TBI due to other mechanisms. Considering the importance of lipid metabolism associated with neuronal membrane integrity and its compromise during TBI, we sought to find changes in lipidomic profiling during blast or blunt (Stereotaxically Controlled Contusison-SCC)-mediated TBI.

In historical illustrations and caricatures, the extraction of a tooth served as a powerful metaphor and threatening gesture that extended far beyond the medical context. This article examines the symbolic significance of this dental procedure and the extracted tooth as an expression of loss, disempowerment, and territorial dispossession. The comparison covers a wide range of visual representations from the French Revolution (1789-1799), the French July Revolution (1830), the Crimean War (1853-1856), the Austro-Prussian War (1866), the Franco-Prussian War (1870/71), to the First (1914-1918) and Second (1939-1945) World Wars and places them in their respective historical contexts.

Background: Domestic violence and abuse (DVA) is a violation of human rights that damages the health and well-being of-gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (gbMSM). Sexual health services provide a unique opportunity to assess for DVA and provide support. This study explores the feasibility and acceptability of Healthcare Responding to Men for Safety (HERMES), a pilot intervention aimed to improve the identification and referral of gbMSM experiencing DVA in a London NHS Trust.
