Referred Shoulder Pain Due to the Positioning of the Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt: A Case Report and Literature Review of an Unusual Complication.

We present the case of an 18-year-old male with a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt for hydrocephalus who experienced right shoulder pain. The patient was thoroughly investigated for gastrointestinal disease, including abdominal ultrasound and upper endoscopy, which revealed no abnormalities that could explain his symptoms. X-ray imaging subsequently revealed that the shunt's distal peritoneal tubing was positioned in a supra-hepatic subdiaphragmatic location.

Molecular cloning and characterization of heat-responsive LcOPR1, a gene encoding oxophytodienoic acid reductase in lentil.

Improving crop plants using biotechnological implications is a promising and modern approach compared to traditional methods. High-temperature exposure to the reproductive stage induces flower abortion and declines grain filling performance, leading to smaller grain production and low yield in lentil and other legumes. Thus, cloning effective candidate genes and their implication in temperature stress tolerance in lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.

This systematic review evaluates the use of robotics in cardiac rehabilitation.

Evaluation of synergism effect of human glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) on Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPC) producer isolated from clinical samples.

Antibiotic resistance is increasing among Gram-negative bacteria, prompting the development of new antibiotics as well as alternative treatment approaches. Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenemases (KPC) has become a major concern in the treatment of infections, since KPC-producing bacteria are resistant to a number of β -lactam and non β-lactam antibiotics in addition to hydrolyzing carbapenemases. The aim of this study is to examine the synergistic effect of human Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) on KPC producer.

Automated Lung Cancer Diagnosis Applying Butterworth Filtering, Bi-Level Feature Extraction, and Sparce Convolutional Neural Network to Luna 16 CT Images.

Accurate prognosis and diagnosis are crucial for selecting and planning lung cancer treatments. As a result of the rapid development of medical imaging technology, the use of computed tomography (CT) scans in pathology is becoming standard practice. An intricate interplay of requirements and obstacles characterizes computer-assisted diagnosis, which relies on the precise and effective analysis of pathology images.

Exploring the Experience of Patients Who Received Mechanical Ventilation Support during Their Intensive Care Unit Stay.

Objective: The objective of this study is to explore the experiences of patients who received mechanical ventilation (MV) support during their intensive care unit (ICU) stay in Jordan.

Frequency and clinicopathologic features of renal low-grade oncocytic tumour and eosinophilic vacuolated tumour: reclassification of 605 eosinophilic tumours including patients managed with active surveillance.

Aims: Low-grade oncocytic tumour (LOT) and eosinophilic vacuolated tumour (EVT) are recently described emerging entities, which demonstrate distinct features but are not yet recognised as separate neoplasms in the fifth WHO classification. Published series to date have been largely multi-institutional and based on surgically resected tumours. This study aims to determine the frequency, clinicopathologic features and outcome of LOT and EVT in a single institutional series of oncocytic/eosinophilic renal neoplasms, including patients managed with active surveillance and non-surgical intervention.

The Effect of Conjugated Nitrile Structures as Acceptor Moieties on the Photovoltaic Properties of Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells: DFT and TD-DFT Investigation.

A major challenge in improving the overall efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells is improving the optoelectronic properties of small molecule acceptors. This work primarily investigated the effects of conjugation in nitriles incorporated as acceptor moieties into a newly designed series of D-A-A dyes. Density functional theory was employed to specifically study how single-double and single-triple conjugation in nitriles alters the optical and electronic properties of these dyes.

Estimating the strength of soil stabilized with cement and lime at optimal compaction using ensemble-based multiple machine learning.

It has been imperative to study and stabilize cohesive soils for use in the construction of pavement subgrade and compacted landfill liners considering their unconfined compressive strength (UCS). As long as natural cohesive soil falls below 200 kN/m in strength, there is a structural necessity to improve its mechanical property to be suitable for the intended structural purposes. Subgrades and landfills are important environmental geotechnics structures needing the attention of engineering services due to their role in protecting the environment from associated hazards.
