26985 and 459 young subjects of Uzbek nationality underwent preventive and inpatient examination to specify clinical characteristics of chronic nonspecific diseases of the lungs. These were characterized by slight subjective symptoms, poor informative value of general clinical tests, pronounced changes in lung ventilation, cytology of bronchoalveolar lavage, bronchologic and immunologic parameters. It is evident that Uzbek adolescents and youths suffering from chronic nonspecific pulmonary diseases develop homeostatic disorders. This contradicts the established views on young age as most favourable biologically and for maximal adaptation.

Association of Pain-Related Anxiety and Abdominal Muscle Thickness during Standing Postural Tasks in Patients with Non-Specific Chronic Low Back Pain.
J Chiropr Med
April 2024
Neuromuscular Rehabilitation Research Center, Semnan University of Medical Sciences, Semnan, Iran.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of pain-related anxiety on abdominal muscles thickness during standing postural tasks among individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP).
Methods: We obtained responses to a pain-related anxiety symptoms questionnaire from 50 participants with CLBP. We then separated participants into high (11 men, 14 women) and low pain-related anxiety (13 men, 12 women) groups and compared assessments of their lateral abdominal muscles thickness during standing tasks on a computerized balance assessment device, using one static level and 2 movable levels (levels 6 and 3 are represented easy and difficult tasks respectively).
Utilising uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery for pericardial window: A 12-year single-centre experience in the diagnosis and treatment of pericardial effusion.

Department of Thoracic Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Atilim University, Ankara, Turkey.
Introduction: Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (Uni-VATS) is an effective minimally invasive technique for pericardial drainage, biopsy and window creation in cases of pericardial effusion (PE).
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study evaluated 73 patients with PE who underwent pericardial window procedures between 2012 and 2024. Intraoperative and post-operative data related to Uni-VATS were assessed.
Lesion correlates of impaired acoustic-phonetic perception after unilateral left hemisphere stroke.
Brain
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI 53226, USA.
Acoustic-phonetic perception refers to the ability to perceive and discriminate between speech sounds. Acquired impairment of acoustic-phonetic perception is known historically as "pure word deafness" and typically follows bilateral lesions of the cortical auditory system. The extent to which this deficit occurs after unilateral left hemisphere damage and the critical left hemisphere areas involved are not well defined.

Tehran Lung Research and Developmental Center, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
Background: This study aims to compare Lung Ultrasound (LUS) findings with High-Resolution Computerized Tomography (HRCT) and Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) to detect the severity of lung involvement in patients with Usual Interstitial Pneumonia (UIP) and Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia (NSIP).
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 35 UIP and 30 NSIP patients at a referral hospital. All patients underwent LUS, HRCT, and PFT.
Chronic active Epstein‒Barr virus colitis, a rare cause of recurrent diarrhea in an immunocompetent female: a case report.

Center of Infectious Disease, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus (CAEBV) colitis is a rare disease with clinical and endoscopic manifestations very similar to those of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In clinical practice, it is easy to be misdiagnosed and mistreated, leading to poor clinical outcomes.
Case Presentation: We report a case of a 56-year-old Chinese woman who presented with 6 years of intermittent severe diarrhea, fever, and abdominal pain.
