Background: Emerging evidence implies a link between high pediatric body mass index (BMI) and an increased risk of multiple sclerosis (MS). However, previous research suggests this association is only present for adolescent obesity and not childhood obesity. The present study aimed to assess the association between pediatric obesity and risk of developing MS, and to investigate if degree of obesity and age at obesity treatment initiation affects the risk.

Transrectal shear wave elastography (T-SWE) can be used non-invasively to diagnose prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The prostate tissue can be viewed as an ellipsoidal sphere with viscoelastic characterization. Linear elastic model has been used to characterize soft tissues, and the simplification of partial characterization provides incomplete information.

Background: X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) techniques are indispensable in managing critically ill neurosurgical patients. However, repeated diagnostic imaging leads to cumulative radiation exposure, raising concerns about long-term risks such as malignancies. This study evaluates the frequency, dosage, and implications of radiation exposure in a neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU) patient cohort.
