Acetylated Bovine Whey Supplement Superseded the Hepatoprotective Action of NAC Drug in Iron Overloaded Rats
In this study, prepared acetylated bovine whey (ABW) was tested as a highly efficient hepatoprotective agent like that of the
old drug N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) against the induction of iron overloading (IO) in a rat model
Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor Improves Glycemic Control in Pediatric Patients with Cystic Fibrosis-Related Diabetes
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disorder caused by genetic mutations encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) is a CFTR modulator shown to improve lung function in certain patients with CF. We undertook this study to determine its effects on glycemic outcomes in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). We reviewed the medical records and identified two subjects, referred to as subject A and subject B, with CFRD on insulin therapy at Duke University Hospital between 2019-2020 who were on treatment with ELX/TEZ/IVA for at least one year. The mean hgbA1C pre- and post- treatment was 5.65% (5.6-5.7) and 5.05% (5.0-5.1) respectively with a mean reduction of 0.6% (p value 0.01). Improvement in hgbA1C occurred in the absence of increased insulin requirements, subject B remained on a similar insulin regimen whereas subject A was able to come off insulin completely. In addition, improvements in BMI z-score were seen in both groups with a mean BMI z-score of -0.30 pre-treatment (-0.71-0.11) and z-score of +0.28 post-treatment (0.11-0.45).
Clinical Impact of Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy to Chronic Calculous Cholecy-stitis: A Retrospective Study
The Aims: The retro-prospective clinical study was to compare these two methods of laparoscopic and classical
cholecystectomy. To prove the postoperative benefits of laparoscopic treatment are, less pain, aesthetic aspect without
surgical scarring and shorter hospital stay, faster return to social activities as well as more cost effective.
Material and Methods: The operated patients, from January 2017 to December 2019 in the abdominal surgery ward
in Gjilan. Important data for the study are taken from the operative list, history of the disease, adequate list compiled
specifically for this study. The study included 389 patients with chronic calculous cholecystitis.
Results: According to the results obtained for calculous diseases of the biliary system are predisposed persons with blood
group O, Rh-positive, with 44.2%, followed by group A + with 29.5%, group B + with 14.7%. Other blood groups and
Rh factors are below 6.5%. Statistical point of view is significant (p <0.05). The study analyzed, C-reactive protein (CRP)
values in both research group (RG) and control groups (CG); CRP by gender; and by age group. RG recorded 76.9% of
females with increased CRP values> 6, while 23.1% of males. The percentage difference in statistical terms is significant p
<0.05.
Conclusion: The results obtained have shown that there are no significant differences in the presentation of intra-operative
complications in terms of gender and age, to both methods. Optimization measures for postoperative management of
patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Continuing education in laparoscopic surgery is important for successful
management.
Association between Helicobacter pylori Infection and Early Kidney Damage in a Healthy Population
This retrospective study was conducted at the Physical Examination Center of the First Hospital of Jilin University,
China. The 5594 healthy individuals were included based on strict predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria from 8821
participants who received health examinations between January 2019 and April 2019. H. pylori infection was detected
using a commercial carbon-14 urea breath test. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the relationships of
biomarkers of early kidney dysfunction with H. pylori infection, after adjusting for age, sex, and metabolic factors.
Kidney Injury in Ordinary Adult Cases of Coronavirus Disease 2019
Kidney injury has been observed broadly in severe and critical coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, but the impairment of renal function in ordinary cases has rarely reported. We conducted this study to explore whether patients in ordinary condition suffered from kidney injury during the course of COVID-19 and to find out a proper indicator for detecting kidney injury in COVID-19 patients.
Effects of Different Concentratıons of Proline, Cysteine and Glutamine on Some Sperm Quality Characterıstıcs and Fertility of Cryopreserved Bee Spermatozoa (Apis Mellifera)
Development of novel cryopreservation protocols is required to test novel chemical and non-chemical supplements in freezing extender for bee semen. Antioxidants demonstrate critical effects on post-thawed sperm quality, fertility, and subsequent embryo development. The purpose of the study was to determine of the effects of different concentrations of proline, cysteine and glutamine on some sperm quality and fertility of cryopreserved bee spermatozoa.
Medical Management of Symptomatic Gallstones: A Narrative Review
Fifteen studies, representing over 2,500 patients, have found that up to 40% of patients continue to have abdominal pain
and symptoms after cholecystectomy. As a result, there is increasing interest in non-operative approaches for managing patients with
symptomatic gallstones. The goal of this study was to summarize the existing evidence and identify remaining evidence gaps for the
medical treatment of symptomatic gallstone disease: including synthetic phospholipids, synthetic bile acids, choleretics, cholesterollowering medications, and diet
A Case Report of Gall Bladder Perforation with Huge Abdominal Cyst
We report a case of 19-year-old female presented with history of abdominal distension for 4 months for which she was counselled to
be because of pregnancy. She gave birth to healthy baby one month back but abdominal distension didn’t resolve. On examination, she
had distended and tender abdomen with visible striae.
Primary Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Mandibular Bone, an Extremly Rare Case Report
Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare epithelial neoplasm, that may affect the salivary glands. It comprises 30% of epithelial minor
salivary gland tumors. We present the case of a 56-year-old non-smoking woman with no significant medical history. The MRI finds
a lesional process involving the right hemi mandible, the right buccal floor, which extends towards the region of the masticators and
infiltrates the submandibular gland. A bone biopsy of the mandible under general anesthesia was performed, showing an adenoid
cystic carcinoma. After announcing the diagnosis to the patient, she refused any treatment
Giant Abscessed Urachal Cyst in Adult
In the adult population, the incidence of urachal anomalies is approximately 1 in 5000 with a higher prevalence in men. Urachal abscess is an
uncommon condition with protean features and often presents a diagnostic challenge to clinicians.
Increased expression of Nppc and Npr2 in ovarian tissues from mice with polycystic ovary syndrome
Weight loss is an efficient therapy for obese polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients. Here we evaluate the effect of dietary weight reduction on clinical performance in obese PCOS patients. Medical records of fifty obese PCOS patients (age 27 ± 5 years) who had calorie-controlled dietary intervention were reviewed. The patients had a 1200-kcal/day diet until ovulation or for up to three months. Changes in body weight, body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, menstruation, acne, and hirsutusm, serum levels of endocrine hormones and adipocytokines, glucolipid metabolism index and insulin resistance were assessed. Menstrual cycle, ovulation andrelapse in the following six months were also reviewed. All patients had menstrual disorder, 43 had acne, and 26 were hirsute. After weight loss, the BMI decreased from 27.89 ± 3.06 to 25.70 ± 2.42 kg/m2 (p < 0.001). Acne and hirsutusm was improved in 39 and 14 patients, respectively. Regular menstruation was restored in 26 patients and lasted for 3.12 months on average. Endocrine hormones
levels, adipocytokines levels, glucolipid metabolism and insulin resistance were shifted toward balance. Weight relapse was seen in 11 patients. No side effects occurred. Dietary intervention in obese PCOS patients can improve relevant clinical problems but weight relapse is an issue

Synchronous Papillary Carcinoma in Thyroglossal Duct Cyst and Thyroid Gland Associated to Untreated Midline Cervical Cleft: A Case Report
Thyroglossal duct cyst is the most common anomaly in thyroid development. Majority is benign, but 1% may be malignant. Papillary carcinoma is the most frequent thyroid cancer. The synchronous occurrence of thyroglossal duct cyst and thyroid carcinoma is rare and the association with another congenital malformation is extremely rarer. A 41-year-old woman was referred to our department with complaints of a midline cervical abnormality. Clinico-radiological evaluation suggested a thyroglossal duct cyst with non-palpable nodules of thyroid gland and a midline cleft with fibrous cord. Sistrunk’s procedure along with a total thyroidectomy associated to an excision and Z-plasty closure of this congenital cervical cleft were performed, followed by post-operative radioiodine ablation.
