AIMS: Aim of the present analysis was to report results of a systematic review of the literature in the setting of patients treated with hypoF PT for benign lesions of the central nervous system (CNS). METHODS: The methodology complied with the PRISMA recommendations. PubMed, EMBASE and Scopus databases were interroga…

BACKGROUND: While papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is associated with high occult central neck metastasis (CNM) rates, prophylactic central neck dissection (pCND) is controversial. This meta-analysis aims to look at the occult CNM rate according to tumor size. METHODS: A literature search was conducted in PubMed from…

Shorter telomere length is associated with numerous comorbidities; central obesity might trigger leukocyte telomere shortening; in the current meta-analysis we evaluated the association of central obesity with leukocyte telomere length among adults. A systematic search from Scopus, PubMed, Embase and Proquest electroni…

BACKGROUND: Central venous pressure (CVP) and right atrial pressure (RAP) are important parameters in the complete hemodynamic assessment of a patient. Sonographic measurement of the inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter is a non-invasive method of estimating these parameters, but there are limited data summarizing its dia…

Connectomics is a comprehensive mapping of structural and functional brain networks. It has introduced a paradigm shift in neurosurgery by redefining brain tumors as network disorders rather than isolated lesions. Unlike traditional surgeries, connectome-guided neurosurgery conceptualizes brain tumors as network disord…

: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) remains a significant public health threat in Central Asia, where rising resistance to first-line anti-TB drugs challenges control efforts. As of 2024, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that over 2.5% of new TB cases and 18% of previously treated cases are resistant…

OBJECTIVES: Based on current evidence, this systematic review focuses on various gray areas related to these patients' diagnosis, management, and follow-up in central skull base osteomyelitis (CSBO). STUDY DESIGN: A systematic review of all case reports and observational studies. METHODS: We systematically searched P…

BACKGROUND: Central nervous system (CNS) disorders benefit from ongoing monitoring to assess disease progression and treatment efficacy. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies offer a means for the remote and continuous symptom monitoring of patients. Machine Learning (ML) techniques can process and engineer mHealth data…

Salidroside (SAL) is a phenylpropanoid glycoside monomer extracted from Rhodiola at high altitudes. It has been proven to have protective effects on myocardial injury, liver cancer, renal fibrosis, and other organ diseases, as well as play neuroprotective roles in central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Specifically, SA…

OBJECTIVE: Due to the special anatomical structure and pathophysiological mechanism of the central nervous system (CNS), there is a big difference between the repair of brain injury and other systems of the body. More and more evidence shows that targetedly reducing the autoimmune response of brain tissue without affec…

We introduce Get Free Copy (https://getfreecopy.com), a web-based platform designed to streamline the search for biomedical literature across major repositories like arXiv, bioRxiv, medRxiv, and PubMed Central (PMC). Addressing challenges posed by paywalls and fragmented databases, it offers a unified interface for eff…

To date, there is no widely accepted system for evaluating soft tissue early healing events in oral surgery. This study aimed to identify variables used to assess early oral soft tissue wound healing. The PubMed-MEDLINE and Cochrane CENTRAL databases were searched up to and including March 1, 2022. Papers were included…

In this paper we present the findings of a literature review covering articles published in the last three decades describing the application of telemedicine in orthopaedics. A review of the PubMed Central and Medline provided 75 articles studying the role of telemedicine, the majority directly examining the applicatio…

BACKGROUND: Documentation of findings and of the treatment implications resulting from them is one of the central tasks involved in medical work. The introduction of software tools for managing and providing technical support for this task is a logical development. METHODS: A literature search was conducted in Septemb…

In the last decade a significant rise in the prevalence of tuberculosis as well as in its extrapulmonary manifestations is detected worldwide. The central nervous system, the genitourinary tract, the organs of the abdomen and the skeletal system, are common sites of infection. Misdiagnosis and delay in treatment are co…

The Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior was founded in 1958 by a group of male psychologists, mainly from the northeastern USA and connected with either Harvard or Columbia. Fifty years later about 20% of both editors and authors reside outside this country and almost the same proportion is made up of wome…

Solitary pulmonary capillary hemangioma (SPCH) is a very rare disease that has been reported to be difficult to diagnose preoperatively because the unenhanced computed tomography (CT) findings resemble adenocarcinoma in appearance. On the other hand, the findings of contrast-enhanced (CE) CT have not been reported as f…

Chitosan is a natural polysaccharide extracted from the shells of crustaceans that has been proposed as a scaffold in tissue engineering. Certain studies have proven a greater osseointegration of titanium surfaces that are functionalized with chitosan. The MEDLINE, CENTRAL, PubMed, and Web of Science databases were ele…

The prototype version of the full-text corpus of Genomics & Informatics has recently been archived in a GitHub repository. The full-text publications of volumes 10 through 17 are also directly downloadable from PubMed Central (PMC) as XML files. During the Biomedical Linked Annotation Hackathon 6 (BLAH6), we experiment…

OBJECTIVE: To review hot issues and future direction of renal tumor biopsy (RTB) technique. DATA SOURCES: The literature concerning or including RTB technique in English was collected from PubMed published from 1990 to 2015. STUDY SELECTION: We included all the relevant articles on RTB technique in English, with no l…
