Case Series on Barotrauma in COVID-19 Infection Patients
Oman Med J. 2023 Sep 28;38(5):e557. doi: 10.5001/omj.2023.44. eCollection 2023 Sep.ABSTRACTAs COVID-19 emerged in the world, there was a high prevalence of intubation and intensive care admissions. Many cases of barotrauma were reported in those patients. This condition is caused by alveoli rupture, which causes the air to enter the surrounding extra-alveolar spaces. It mainly happens in intubated patients. Here, we report 14 cases of barotrauma in COVID-19 patients, which appeared either spontaneously or after receiving non-invasive ventilation, some of the patients presented initially with mild-moderate forms of the dise...

Use of Artificial Intelligence in Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring
Oman Med J. 2023 Sep 28;38(5):e543. doi: 10.5001/omj.2023.73. eCollection 2023 Sep.ABSTRACTCoronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring improves traditional risk factor-based coronary heart disease (CHD) risk stratification. Here, the contribution of CAC scoring to a traditional 10-year CHD risk prediction scores and new artificial intelligence methods used to automate CAC scoring were reviewed. Research shows that traditional risk factors tend to overestimate or underestimate the actual risk of CHD, meaning that including CAC score in the risk stratification has potential to reduce over- and undertreatment. The automated CAC sco...
