Potential Drug Interactions in Terminally-Ill Cancer Patients, a Report from the Middle East
This study aims to evaluate the epidemiology of potential drug interactions in terminally-ill cancer patients receiving exclusively supportive care. In this cross-sectional study, during a 6-month follow-up, we considered the medical record of terminally-ill cancer patients referred to palliative care at the cancer center in Isfahan, Iran. Potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) were assessed by Lexi-Interact ver.1.1 online software. During the study period, 133 terminally-ill cancer patients were recruited. We detected 1678 DDIs with moderate or major severity levels. Among them, 330, 219, 32, 1075, and 51 interactions we...

Comparison of Blood Lead Levels in Children and Adolescents with and without Functional Abdominal Pain
CONCLUSION: We found that the lead level was higher in patients with FGID than in the controls; however, this difference was not significantly different. This might be because of elevated lead levels in both groups. Future ecological studies with a large sample size are necessary in this regard.PMID:37694233 | PMC:PMC10492617 | DOI:10.4103/abr.abr_250_22

Evaluating Preoperative Intravenous Iron and Erythropoietin Treatment and Outcomes in Cardiac Surgery Patients
CONCLUSIONS: Infection (P = 0.258), mortality rate (P = 0.440), and RBC utilization (P = 0.469) in the two groups of injection and non-injection were not significantly different.PMID:37645003 | PMC:PMC10461381 | DOI:10.5812/aapm-130899

Idiopathic omental hemorrhage: a case report and review of the literature
ConclusionPresence of positive focused assessment with sonography in trauma, abdominal pain, imaging evidence of fluid accumulation, and a reduction in hemoglobin levels collectively indicate the likelihood of arteriovenous malformation occurrence. The treatment options include surgical intervention and transcatheter arterial embolization. Surgical intervention is recommended for subjects with hemodynamic instability, persistent hypotension and those whose diagnosis is unconfirmed.

Comparing Circumferential Supracrestal Fiberotomy with Surgical Scalpel Versus Photobiomodulation in Orthodontic Relapse Reduction: A Clinical Trial
Conclusions: This study suggests that utilizing photobiomodulation combined with laser CSF or conventional CSF can be effective in reducing relapse. However, further clinical trials are required to support this idea. Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT20210621051653N1).PMID:37579132 | DOI:10.1089/photob.2023.0039

Exploring the anticancer properties of the gum of < em > Ferula gummosa < /em > : impact on cytotoxicity, caspase 3/7 activity and apoptosis, and gene expression in SW-480 cells
This study aimed to identify the chemical components of the gum of F. gummosa and investigate its effects on SW-480 cells. The experiments included MTT, clonogenic, micronucleus formation, acridine orange/ethidium bromide stain, DNA degradation, caspase 3/7 activity assay, and in vitro wound-healing experiment and investigating the expression of BAX, BCL2, MTOR, and PTEN genes. Chemical analysis using GC/MS identified 102 compounds. The gum had a significant cytotoxic effect on SW-480 cells, with an IC50 value of 1.8 µg/ml for 48 hours. The gum induced apoptosis. Microscopic observations revealed a decrease in cell prolif...

Microscopic Unilateral Approach for Bilateral Decompression of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
CONCLUSION: The microscopic unilateral approach to bilateral decompression is an effective method for decompression in spinal stenosis. Via this approach, surgical trauma is reduced and surgically induced instability is avoided as much as possible.PMID:37543899 | DOI:10.34172/aim.2022.117
