Diagnostic Performance of Ultrasound in Adult Appendicitis. A Retrospective Review of 331 Cases
The sensitivity of ultrasound in the detection of appendicitis had a prevalence of 16% in our predominantly young female cohort, with alternative gynaecological and abdominal diagnoses identified approximately 2:1. The sensitivity for ultrasound to detect appendicitis was 60%, with specificity of 98% and negative predictive value (NPV) of 93%.

Immunological and periodontal benefits of prebiotic polydextrose in rats with induced periodontitis
Abstract Background Prebiotic therapy is a promising approach for managing periodontitis due to its potential benefits in modulating the microbiome and the immune response. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the prebiotic (PREB) polydextrose (PDX) on the development of experimental periodontitis (EP) in rats.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Caecal duplication in a neonate causing intestinal obstruction
Intestinal duplication is one of the rare congenital abnormalities encountered. Duplications found on the small intestine are more commonly encountered in clinical practice than the large intestine and majority of these occurs in the ileum. We present a

ABSTRACT Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe complication of sepsis, yet the role of lncRNA NORAD in its pathogenesis remains unclear. Using LPS‐stimulated BEAS‐2B and HBEC3‐KT cells as well as cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)‐induced ALI models in C57BL/6 mice, we found that NORAD expression was markedly upregulated and promoted cell injury ...
