Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp MRI) as non invasive diagnostic tool is used as a triage test to avoid biopsy, as well as to improve the diagnostics. In our study we want to prove the clinical meaning of T2W pulse sequence and diffusion as a part of mp MRI in prostate malignant lesions detection and their distinction from the benign lesions. This cohort prospective study included 100 patients with increased levels of PSA from 4 ng/ml to 76 ng/ml. The MRI equipment used was Siemens Essenza1,5T with body coil. The results from the T2W pulse sequence and diffusion are correlated with the values of diffusion and ADC map, in which the suspected zones are marked on a template. Patients undergo biopsy depending on the PIRADS (prostate-imaging and reporting data system) classification. The MRI results and the pathohistological findings are then compared. Clinically significant cancer is considered to be a cancer with a Gleason score 6, diameter  > 6mm. The values of diffusion with its numerical ADC map are considerably lower for malignant nodules compared to benign ones. Hyposignal of T2W pulse sequence is characterized with score 2 and 3 in benign changes, and 4 and 5 in malignant changes using the PI RADS score system for differentiation. T2W pulse sequence combined with diffusion is a powerful tool for non-invasive differentiation of benign prostatic hyperplastic nodule and prostatitis from a malignant nodule.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the value of urinary biomarkers in children with progression of chronic kidney disease. The  is a retrospective-prospective study in which includes 95 pediatric patients with clinical signs, symptoms, laboratory analyses, and imaging studies for CKD. The patients are aged 0 to 14 years who came to the University Clinic for Children's Diseases-Skopje at the nephrology department and the subspecialist nephrology outpatient clinic, in period from January 2019 to June 2022. The study group is divided into three groups, study group 1, which includes 41/95 pediatric patients(43.16%)with congenital anomalies of the kidneys and urinary tract, study group 2, which includes 34/95 pediatric patients(35.79%)with tubulopathies and metabolic disorders with renal affection and study group three which includes20/95(21.05%)pediatric patients with other nephrological-urological diseases. In our study, CKD is more prevalent in males 64 (67.37%) while 31 (32.63%) are females, according to age, patients aged 5-14 years (57.3 %). The average values of urine NGAL(ng/ml), β2-Microglobulin and albuminirua showed that there is a significant difference in relation to this parameter in three groups of pediatric patients at the first examination (p<0.05). As the landscape of CKD continues to reveal novel insights into its intricate mechanisms, urine biomarkers will continue to assume a pivotal role in furthering our comprehension of the disease and shaping the trajectory of personalized medicine for CKD children.

The main goal of our study is to establish the occurrence-rate and risk factors for development of these symptoms. Patients with early pregnancy lose, who came in hospital were enrolled in the study. The HADS (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) was used to measure symptoms of depression and/or anxiety of these patients. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Out of total 70 patients, 60% reported symptoms of depression and/or anxiety at some point during the study. Half of them, i.e. 54.2% display the symptoms on the day of admission to the hospital, while 9.5% of the patients demonstrated onset of symptoms of depression and/or anxiety one month after the incident. The symptoms persisted at least one month following the miscarriage, in 64.3% of the patients. Regarding the studied variables (nationality, level of education, employment and marital status as well as number of previous pregnancy loss and the number of children), none of them shows statistically significant difference for developing symptoms of depression and/or anxiety. 60% of women display symptoms of anxiety or/and depression following early pregnancy loss, majority of them immediate after the incident, so every hospital should be well-staffed by professionals and able to provide an adequate care and psychological support for these patients. The study failed to reveal any risk factor (among selected) significantly associated with development of symptoms of depression and anxiety. Hence, every woman with such diagnosis can potentially develop psychological stress, and should be monitored carefully.

All the patients with some form of intraoperative complication or difficulties, patients on whom conversion to open approach was performed or patients with any kind of postoperative complication were placed in the group “with adverse events” and the rest in the group “without adverse events”.

It is more pronounced in the mandible than in the maxilla and tends to increase with age. Depending on the degree of space deficiency and the age of the children the prevalence of dental crowding can be as high as 50%. Schwartz appliance and lip bumper have been widely used as an early treatment for increasing lower dental arch dimensions. The aim of this review is to evaluate the scientific research about the efficacy of Schwartz appliance and lip bumper and compare the changes caused by the two appliances in addressing mandibular crowding in the mixed dentition. A comprehensive literature search on the electronic databases: PubMed, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar was performed. Also, a search of the reference lists of included studies was conducted, to ensure comprehensive coverage of the literature. Search terms included \"Schwartz appliance\" OR \"removable appliance\" AND \"lip bumper\" OR \"fixed appliance\" AND \"mandibular crowding\" AND \"mixed dentition\" OR \"early dentition\". The search resulted in identifying several studies that met the inclusion criteria. Results show that both Schwartz appliance and lip bumper can effectively improve mandibular crowding in mixed dentition, although the extent and type of changes produced by these appliances may vary. Schwartz appliance is more effective in increasing inter canine width, while the lip bumper has more effect on increasing the arch length. Patient compliance as well as treatment duration are important factors that can have an effect on the success of orthodontic treatment.","PeriodicalId":16444,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Morphological Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71081855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
