Current status of global research on pericardial diseases: a bibliometric analysis of the top 100 from Web of Science.

Introduction: Bibliometric studies can help guide researchers and funding bodies toward fields where more research activity is warranted. Bibliometric analyses have previously been published in many specialties and sub-specialties. Our literature search did not show a bibliometric analysis on pericardial diseases.

HPV-57 Verruca Vulgaris Mimicking Epidermodysplasia Verruciformis.

Human papilloma virus (HPV) is the causative agent for a variety of cutaneous lesions including verruca vulgaris (VV) and epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EDV). There are more than 200 known genotypes of HPV, and specific HPV types are associated with different clinical manifestations and malignant potentials. Herein, we describe a case of a 43-year-old immunocompetent woman who presented with morphologically distinct lesions that were most consistent with EDV on clinical examination.

Gender differences in sexual health impairment in hidradenitis suppurativa: A systematic review.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis characterized by painful nodules, sinus tracts, and scarring, with a predilection for intertriginous areas. HS is particularly prevalent in women of childbearing age and can have varying psychological and physical consequences. The chronic and debilitating nature of this disease can lead to significant impairments in patients' sexual health and overall quality of life.

Specialty and Lifestyle Preference Changes during Medical School.

Purpose: Medical student specialty choices have significant downstream effects on the availability of physicians and, ultimately, the effectiveness of health systems. This study investigated how medical student specialty preferences change over time in relation to their demographics and lifestyle preferences.

Method: Students from ten medical schools were surveyed at matriculation (2012) and graduation (2016).
