Evaluation of Canadian CT head injury rule performance among patients with seizure- and non-seizure-related head injuries: A pilot study.

Introduction: Canadian CT Head Injury Rule (CTHR) is used to evaluate the necessity of a computed tomography (CT) scan in patients with TBI suspicion. Despite known negative effects of epilepsy on brain structural integrity, patients with SRHI are still assessed with CTHR.

Objectives: Assess the prognostic efficiency of CTHR in seizure-related and non-seizure-related head injury.

Seizure-Related Head Injuries: A Narrative Review.

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases. Epileptic seizures very often result in head injuries that may lead to many adverse consequences, both acute and chronic. They contribute to the need for hospitalization, modification of treatment, and a general decline in social productivity.

Clinical presentation and outcomes of cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis in patients with diabetes - A matched pair analysis. A pilot study.

Purpose: The primary aim of this study is to compare the clinical course and laboratory parameters of acute cholecystitis in patients with diabetes vs. patients without diabetes.

Materials And Methods: The study involved patients who underwent emergency cholecystectomy in the Department of General, Endocrine and Transplant Surgery of University Clinical Center in Gdansk (Poland) between 2007 and 2017.
