Department of Pathology, College of Medicine Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University Dammam Saudi Arabia.
Background: Estimation of sex of the skeletal remains plays a vital part in the identification of an individual. This study is focused on the morphometric measurements of the foramen magnum region and examining the accuracy of sexual dimorphism in the Nepalese population.
Methods: Measurements were obtained from 3D computed tomography (CT) scan of 261 Nepalese adult cranial bases with known age and sex.
Differing Impact of Preterm Birth on the Right and Left Atria in Adulthood.

December 2022
Oxford Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Radcliffe Department of Medicine University of Oxford Oxford United Kingdom.
Background Preterm birth affects 10% of live births and is associated with an altered left ventricular and right ventricular phenotype and increased cardiovascular disease risk in young adulthood. Because left atrial (LA) and right atrial (RA) volume and function are known independent predictors of cardiovascular outcomes, we investigated whether these were altered in preterm-born young adults. Methods and Results Preterm-born (n=200) and term-born (n=266) adults aged 18 to 39 years underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.

Background And Objectives: Declines in stroke admission, IV thrombolysis (IVT), and mechanical thrombectomy volumes were reported during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a paucity of data on the longer-term effect of the pandemic on stroke volumes over the course of a year and through the second wave of the pandemic. We sought to measure the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the volumes of stroke admissions, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), IVT, and mechanical thrombectomy over a 1-year period at the onset of the pandemic (March 1, 2020, to February 28, 2021) compared with the immediately preceding year (March 1, 2019, to February 29, 2020).

Division of Cardiology, Temple University Hospital Philadelphia, PA, United States of America.
In this systematic review, we seek to clarify the impact of treatment of hyperthyroidism on pulmonary hypertension in patients with both these conditions. We included 39 of 709 articles retrieved, that studied patients with hyperthyroidism and pulmonary hypertension (PH). From these, those with a documented pre-treatment Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure (PASP) > 35 mmHg and complete follow up were analyzed, yielding 3 case series and 22 case reports with a total of 81 cases.

Preventive Dental Sciences Department, College of Dentistry, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University Dammam, Saudi Arabia.
Objective: Localized subgingival minocycline hydrochloride (MH) delivery as an adjuvant to with non-surgical mechanical debridement (NSMD) is useful for the treatment of periodontitis; however, there are no trials that have assessed the efficacy of subgingival MH delivery with NSMD for the treatment of peri-implantitis in cigarette-smokers and non-smokers. This randomized controlled trial assessed the efficacy of subgingival MH delivery with NSMD for the treatment of peri-implantitis in cigarette-smokers.
Patients And Methods: Self-reported current cigarette-smokers and non-smokers with peri-implantitis were encompassed.
Global Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Cerebral Venous Thrombosis and Mortality.
J Stroke
May 2022
Department of Neurology, Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, Michigan, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Recent studies showed a rise in cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) cases during the COVID-19 pandemic, prompting this evaluation of hospitalization and mortality rates comparing the pandemic year (2020) to the year prior (2019).
- A cross-sectional study analyzed data from 171 stroke centers worldwide, focusing on CVT admissions and associated mortality from January 2019 to May 2021, revealing no significant differences in overall CVT volume or mortality between 2019 and 2020.
- However, the first five months of 2021 saw a notable increase in CVT admissions compared to 2019 and 2020, with higher mortality rates linked to COVID-19-positive patients and instances of vaccine-induced immune

Objective: The aim was to assess the reported family relationships during the COVID-19 pandemic and the association between these relationships and individual, interpersonal, and country-level income in eight Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries.
Background: COVID-19 causes fear of infection, loss of loved ones, and economic problems that may affect family relationships.
Methods: Data were collected from eight MENA countries using an online survey (July-August 2020).
Background Image-quality (IQ) compromises left ventricle assessment by 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE). Sicker/frailer patients often have suboptimal IQ, and therefore observed associations may be biased by IQ. We investigated its effect in an observational study of older people and when IQ was modified experimentally in healthy volunteers.

Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Mechanical debridement (MD) with and without adjunct antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) in the treatment of peri‑implantitis among waterpipe smokers (WPS) and non-smokers with peri‑implantitis MATERIAL AND METHODS: Participants were stratified into two groups. Group 1: Subjects who smoked water pipes for the last 2 years with peri‑implant disease were treated with aPDT adjunct to MD and group 2: Participants who did not use water pipes in the last 2 years but have periimplantitis (controls) were treated with MD only. Participants were scrutinized with peri‑implantitis (PI) in one dental implant at least based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Background: Adrenal cavernous hemangiomas (AH) are benign nonfunctional vascular tumors rarely discovered as incidental findings on imaging studies or autopsies. This study presents a single case report of AH with another rare finding of the Liesegang ring. Also, we reviewed 73 case reports of cavernous adrenal hemangioma to provide an overview of AH's clinical characteristics.

A recent study showed that OVX-induced osteoporosis was reversed after injection of osteoblasts cultured from the bone marrow in rats. The present study evaluated the effect of injecting MSCs, osteoblasts, and exosomes isolated from osteoblasts for the treatment of osteoporosis in the rabbit model. Osteoporosis was created in 40 rabbits by performing ovareictomy at 6 months of age, and 1 mg/kg body weight of methyl prednisolone sodium succinate was injected daily for 8 weeks.

Primary omental torsion is a rare cause of acute abdomen especially in obese patients with inconsistent history, examination, and laboratory findings. The liberal use of computed tomography in casualties has increased its preoperative diagnosis. Despite the controversy, the non-operative approach should be attempted as a first line of management while the laparoscopic resection should be only considered after failure of non-operative management.

Background A subpopulation of endothelial progenitor cells called endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) may offer a platform for cellular assessment in clinical studies because of their remarkable angiogenic and expansion potentials in vitro. Despite endothelial cell function being influenced by cardiovascular risk factors, no studies have yet provided a comprehensive proteomic profile to distinguish functional (ie, more angiogenic and expansive cells) versus dysfunctional circulating ECFCs of young adults. The aim of this study was to provide a detailed proteomic comparison between functional and dysfunctional ECFCs.
