There are no sufficient studies on laboratory parameters associated with acute stroke. Laboratory parameters associated with acute stroke may become important in the prevention or follow-up of the disease. To investigate the relationship between cerebrovascular disease (CVD) and serum phosphorus levels.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigates out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) data in Türkiye, focusing on prognostic outcomes and influencing factors for patients aged 18 and older who were treated at 28 medical centers.
- It found a survival rate upon hospital discharge of only 4.4%, with a significant majority of patients not receiving bystander CPR, which was only performed in 2.9% of cases.
- Key predictors for better outcomes included male gender, initial shockable heart rhythms, shorter prehospital CPR duration, and no need for CPR in the emergency department, highlighting the importance of timely and effective CPR in emergencies.
Background: It is important to investigate the factors that may delay the diagnosis and treatment process of ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to investigate whether in-hospital mortality increased in patients who presented to the emergency department out-of-hours and underwent thrombectomy.
Methods: A total of 59 patients who applied to the emergency department between January 1, 2018 and November 1, 2021 and underwent thrombectomy due to ischemic stroke were included in the study.

Objective: Scabies infestation is a major parasitic disease affecting both human and animal health worldwide. This study aimed to determine the distribution of scabies infestation in stray dogs in Bursa province.
Methods: The study material was obtained from stray dogs suspected of mange kept in a municipal shelter in Bursa between June 2020 and February 2022.
Background: Due to the high rate of geriatric patient visits, scoring systems are needed to predict increasing mortality rates.
Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the in-hospital mortality prediction power of the National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2) and the Laboratory Data Decision Tree Early Warning Score (LDT-EWS), which consists of frequently performed laboratory parameters.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 651 geriatric patients who visited the emergency department (ED), were not discharged on the same day from ED, and were hospitalized.
