Background: Focal thyroid incidentalomas (FTIs) found on 18F-FDG PET/CT (Fluorine-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positoin Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography) examinations are becoming commonplace in routi

Background: Childhood obesity and metabolic syndrome are fast becoming major health challenges worldwide, although the estimates of prevalence rates vary largely due to the varying definitions, popula

Introduction: Gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is essential for managing various GI conditions, particularly in critically ill patients. These procedures, often performed under anaesthesia, carry risks

Background: Malnutrition affects approximately 40% of critically ill patients, yet iatrogenic underfeeding remains prevalent due to clinical barriers. This study evaluated the alignment between nutrit

Background: Pregnancy-associated hypertensive disorders (HDP) are important predictors of maternal and neonatal health outcomes, particularly for rurality-based as well as under-represented groups. Al

Background: Body mass index (BMI) and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) provide different information at the first assessment of type 2 diabetes. BMI characterises body habitus and adiposity-related risk,

Background: Pregnancy-associated sepsis remains a significant contributor to maternal morbidity and mortality, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Early recognition is challenging due to

Background: Among all the strokes the intracerebral haemorrhage comprises of about 8-13% and carries a significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to analyse risk factors, Neuroimaging, clin

Background: Acute cholecystitis (AC) is a common surgical emergency with severity ranging from mild inflammation to life-threatening complications. Early severity assessment is essential for appropria

Objective: To systematically review literature on the predictive value of masseter and psoas muscle sarcopenia in neurocritical patients. Design: Systematic Review. Subjects/Patients: Adults (≥ 18 yea

Objective: To evaluate associations between environmental and occupational exposures and acquired aplastic anemia, assess dose–response relations, and integrate mechanistic evidence. Design: Systemati

Objective: To evaluate first-trimester mean platelet volume as an early screening marker for predicting pre-eclampsia. Design: Prospective observational study. Subjects/Patients: 150 pregnant women wi

Introduction: Stroke is a major cause of mortality and disability, with elderly patients at higher risk. Ischemic stroke, the most common type, results from embolic or thrombotic arterial occlusion. P
