Evaluating the Diagnostic Performance of PET/MR Versus CECT in Determining Resectability in Ovarian Cancer.

This study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of whole-body PET/MR imaging and contrast-enhanced CT for detecting metastatic disease in patients undergoing surgical resection, using pathology as the reference standard. Nineteen patients with suspected metastatic involvement (including four who received neoadjuvant therapy before surgery) underwent both FDG PET/MR and contrast-enhanced CT scans. Imaging was reviewed for metastases at defined sites (e.

Clinical features and refractive profile of surgical patients with dissociated vertical deviation.

BackgroundTo report the deviation type, visual and refractive characteristics of patients with dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) requiring unilateral or bilateral strabismus surgery.MethodsThis study included 180 patients with DVD who underwent unilateral or bilateral strabismus surgery at Farabi Eye Hospital.Age, refractive error (RE), Corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), strabismus angle, presence of amblyopia, and postoperative outcome.

The relationship between the maternal consumption of barberry, saffron, pickled vegetables, and tea and the odds of congenital anomalies in Iranian children under 10 years of age: A case-control study.

Background: The administration of barberry extract and saffron to pregnant mice has been reported to cause abnormalities in fetus development. Given the high cultivation of barberry and saffron in Qayenat, we aimed to investigate the association of the maternal use of barberry, saffron, pickled vegetables, and tea during gestation with Congenital Anomalies (CA) in Qayenat City, South Khorasan Province.

Methods And Materials: The present case-control study was done on 150 patients under 10 years of age with CA (case group) and 150 healthy children that were selected for each case, with the same age (±2 months) and sex, from the same town (control group) between March and May 2023.

Wound-Healing Properties of Henna in Pilonidal Sinus Surgery: A Randomized Study.

Background: Wound complications associated with pilonidal sinus (PS) significantly contribute to its high post-operative morbidity. Therefore, speeding up the wound healing process after surgery can help minimize potential complications. This study investigated the effectiveness of extract (LIE) in promoting wound healing following PS surgery, given its known benefits in this area.

Material requirements planning with a novel lot sizing method and a new algorithm for production scheduling.

Material Requirements Planning is an intelligent information system and a decision maker that determines the type of raw materials, the quantity of them, and their supplying time in order to realize production schedule of products and work-in-process items in a manufacturing system. In each manufacturing system, if we split production costs into material, labor, and overhead costs, we will observe that over 60% of total production costs are related to material. Therefore, it is necessary to consider an appropriate inventory control system to manage the costs of inventory system to provide right inventory, with right quantity, at the right time, at the right price, and with appropriate quality.
