Severe odontogenic infections: a 5-year review of a major referral hospital in Ghana
INTRODUCTION: Odontogenic infections are fairly common in healthcare settings. However, late presentations such as Ludwig's angina, facial cellulitis, necrotizing cervical fasciitis (NCF), among others could lead to mortality. In view of suggestions that

Novel Classification of Ischemic Heart Disease Using Artificial Neural Network [PDF]
Ischemic heart disease (IHD), particularly in its chronic stable form, is a subtle pathology due to its silent behavior before developing in unstable angina, myocardial infarction or sudden cardiac death. Machine learning techniques applied to parameters extracted form heart rate variability (HRV) signal seem to be a valuable support in the early ...

Uncertainty quantification of a three-dimensional in-stent restenosis model with surrogate modelling [PDF]
In-Stent Restenosis is a recurrence of coronary artery narrowing due to vascular injury caused by balloon dilation and stent placement. It may lead to the relapse of angina symptoms or to an acute coronary syndrome. An uncertainty quantification of a model for In-Stent Restenosis with four uncertain parameters (endothelium regeneration time, the ...

An adenosinergic positive feedback loop extends pharmacological cardioprotection duration
Abstract Background and Purpose Adenosine receptor activation induces delayed, sustained cardioprotection against ischaemia–reperfusion (IR) injury (24–72 h), but the mechanisms underlying extended cardioprotection duration remain unresolved. We hypothesized that a positive feedback loop involving adenosine receptor‐induced proteasomal degradation of ...

Extracting Angina Symptoms from Clinical Notes Using Pre-Trained Transformer Architectures [PDF]
Anginal symptoms can connote increased cardiac risk and a need for change in cardiovascular management. This study evaluated the potential to extract these symptoms from physician notes using the Bidirectional Encoder from Transformers language model fine-tuned on a domain-specific corpus.

Dental antibiotic policies, stewardship, and implementation in India: A policy document analysis
Abstract Objectives Dental antibiotic stewardship is crucial in low‐ and middle‐income countries where the burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is high and antibiotic misuse is common. Given that India is the most populous country, the largest antibiotic consumer and has a large dental prescriber population, this study investigated the extent to ...

Unstable Angina is a syndrome correlated to mixed Th17 and Th1 immune disorder [PDF]
Unstable angina is common clinical manifestation of atherosclerosis. However, the detailed pathogenesis of unstable angina is still not known. Here, I propose that unstable angina is a mixed TH17 and TH1 immune disorder. By using microarray analysis, I find out that TH1 and TH17 related cytokine, cytokine receptor, chemokines, complement, immune ...

Non-Linear Dynamics In Patients With Stable Angina Pectoris [PDF]
We investigate the clinical and prognostic significance of fractal dimension and detrended fluctuation analysis by comparing the group of patients with stable angina pectoris without previous myocardial infarction with the group of age-matched healthy controls.
