Different phases of a woman's life are puberty, menses, pregnancy, and menopause. Menopause is one of the normal developmental stages in a woman's life, marks the permanent cessation of menstruation. It occurs due to irreversible changes in the hormones.The gradual variation and circulating sex hormones affect women's psychological balance and quality of life. The hormonal changes affect the reproductory system and affect the bone integrity and overall health of the individual. The only source of oocytes in women is an ovary. That is the primary source of oestrogens and progesterone, majorly the androgens. Therefore, various systemic health concerns like vasomotor symptoms, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, sexual problems, osteoporosis, and poor oral health
Thoracic complications directly or indirectly consequence of COVID-19 (including either pathologies strictly related to the infection, or iatrogenic effects of therapeutic attempts to treat it) have been described during the pandemic. Many of the above conditions often require a surgical approach but, based on published data reporting high early postoperative morbidity and mortality, many experts initially advised against any referral to surgery in COVID-19 patients. Therefore, the issue is if salvage surgical approach should be always excluded or could be considered when it represents the only remaining effective option. In the absence of solid data and recommendations, this is a demanding challenge for thoracic surgeons We have coordinated a multicenter study to collect the experience of several worldwide high-volume thoracic surgery departments. Our objective is to investigate efficacy and safety of surgery in COVID-19 patients who developed thoracic complications that required operative management.
This study is to evaluate the effect of vitamin D on the rate of tooth movement by measuring and comparing the extraction space closure during retraction in experimental (vitamin D supplemented) and control groups with a sample size of 24 and having serum vitamin D level (30-40 ng/ml). All subjects undergo orthodontic levelling and alignment after premolar extractions followed by vitamin D supplementation in the experimental group. The rate of canine retraction will be measured in both the groups and CBCT taken in the interval of 6 months before and after intervention to measure root changes
The overarching goal of this study is to develop, implement, and evaluate the effect of a collaborative quality improvement (C-QIP) intervention (consisting of non-physician health workers, text messages for a healthy lifestyle, and a clinical decision support system) on processes of care and clinical outcomes among individuals with previous cardiovascular disease in India.
The main goal of therapy for patients with chronic HBV infection with no significant liver disease is to improve survival and quality of life by preventing disease progression, development of liver cirrhosis and consequently HCC development. The likelihood of achieving these goals depends on the timing of therapy during the natural course of the infection but also on the stage of the disease and the patients' age when treatment is started. The inhibition of viral replication and normalization of ALT by antiviral treatment has been shown to achieve the elimination of chronic HBV-induced necroinflammatory activity and progressive fibrotic liver progression in the vast majority of patients, in turn reducing the risk of HCC. Even in HBeAg positive patients, treatment-induced HBeAg loss and seroconversion to antiHBe characterizes the induction of a partial immune control often leading to a low replicative phase of the chronic HBV infection and good outcomes. Treatment in chronic HBV infection is indicated in - presence of advanced fibrosis/cirrhosis (LSM >11 KPA) or patients with significant fibrosis (LSM >8 or APRI >1.5 or >F2 on liver biopsy) with high viral load (>2000 IU/ml) or significantly elevated ALT (x2 ULN). Presence of any of these factors is known to increase the risk of development of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. TAF in non-cirrhotic patients (LSM <8 KPA) with normal ALT and low viral load (HBV DNA <2000 IU/ml) (currently treatment ineligible) as compared to delayed initiation (on demand) might reduce HCC risk, progression of liver fibrosis and reduction in HBsAg levels. As TAF is known to have favorable effects on the overall long-term outcome, the main clinical challenge is to identify the patients at risk of HCC and cirrhosis who warrant early antiviral therapy.
Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition characterized by reflux of stomach contents causing troublesome symptoms and complications. Typical symptoms include heart burn (a retrosternal burning sensation), regurgitation (perception of flow of refluxed stomach content into the mouth or hypopharynx) and chest pain. As per recently published global guidelines (2017) by World Gastroenterology Organisation (WGO), the presence of heartburn and/or regurgitation symptoms 2 or more times a week is suggestive of GERD. Global burden of GERD in general population is approximately 1.03 billion, the prevalence of GERD varies geographically, with the highest prevalence of 19.55% in North America while in Asia, the estimated rate is 12.92%. However the data regarding the prevalence of GERD in intensive care unit (ICU) population is not yet established; which is expected higher after recovery from their current acute illness. In a healthy individual, several factors contribute to the prevention of reflux and to minimizing esophageal acid exposure: lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure, the diaphragmatic crura, gravity, esophageal peristalsis, salivary bicarbonate and the integrity of esophageal epithelium. But in critically ill these factors are compromised leading to high incidence of GERD. Interventions commonly used in managing critically ill patients such as sedation, presence of an endotracheal tube, mechanical ventilation, enteral tube feedings, positioning, and medications, along with specific patient characteristics and comorbid conditions contribute to an increased risk for GERD in this population. GERD results in various symptoms which has impact on quality of life. Various reliable and validated generic and disease specific instruments are available to measure symptom severity of the disease. In the present study, among GERD patients, commonly and freely available GERD-Health-related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) score will be used which is a disease-specific instrument. This observational study will screen and enroll adult patients who survived at the time of ICU discharge.
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare neoplasm. The most common type, the epithelioid type, has been further divided into histological patterns of tubulo-papillary, acinar, adenomatoid, micropapillary, or solid. Its prognosis is improved by the use of a locoregional treatment combining extensive cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), which increases survival up to 50 months. Histology is one of the most important prognostic variable that, forms the basis for treatment decisions. However, the prognostic of the epithelioid type varies greatly due to its tumor heterogeneity. It is therefore necessary to find prognostic factors of malignant epithelioid peritoneal mesothelioma in order to better define the therapeutic strategy. Among histological factors, solid growth, tumor necrosis, nuclear atypia, and mitotic count were found to be independent prognostic factors in epithelioid malignant pleural mesothelioma. However, in epithelioid malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (EMPM), these factors were studied in small and heterogeneous series in terms of histological growth and definitions used for histological factors. The present large study was conducted to investigate the prognostic impact of several histologic factors in EMPM. Their prognosis impacts were assessed using overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in EMPM.
The purpose of this study is to compare the Success and quality of life following complete pulpotomy and root canal treatment in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.
Traumatic brain injury is a common neurosurgical emergency managed in all tertiary and secondary hospitals. Detecting the underlying pathology is a major challenge especially for surgical cases. The outcome differs if the early intervention is performed. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) based device will detect the hematoma at the bedside. It is not the replacement of a CT scan but can help in triage. This is a large-scale prospective study to establish the role of NIRS device in detecting intracerebral hematoma and correlate the finding with CT scan finding.
