CONCLUSION: Low-dose fluconazole is an effective alternative to high-dose regimens for preventing Candida infections in acute leukemia patients, with similar efficacy and safety. The rising threat of aspergillosis highlights the need for targeted prophylaxis. Further research is needed to refine strategies for high-risk patients. →

CONCLUSION: Although adding ezetimibe to atorvastatin can decrease LDL and hs-CRP levels in short-term follow-up; it is not effective in lowering short-term major cardiovascular events in patients after PCI. Studies with longer-term follow-up are recommended. →

CONCLUSIONS: Patient preferences identified by this study underscore the need for prenatal care to address the psychological health needs of pregnant patients to deliver high quality, comprehensive prenatal care that is trauma-informed and culturally-responsive. →

CONCLUSIONS: Compared with CPLT, GLT has at least comparable outcomes in terms of effectiveness and accuracy; good safety profile was the advantage of GLT. →

BACKGROUND: In cases of prevalent lymphadenopathy in the head and neck cancer region, identifying the primary tumor site allows for more precise radiotherapy targeting. This improves treatment by reducing the volumes of mucosal irradiation and potentially lowering morbidity. An extensive diagnostic workup, including FDG PET-CT imaging and bilateral tonsillectomy, has been shown to identify the… →

This study aims to compare the efficacy of IL-17 and IL-23 biologics in the treatment of plaque psoriasis (Psoriasis vulgaris) in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and to explore the effects of different biologics on metabolic indicators, particularly regarding the differences in efficacy during long-term treatment. This is a randomized controlled clinical trial involving 120… →

CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that neutrophil count can help in identifying patients that are more likely to achieve T2DM remission following a Mediterranean diet, suggesting a role on insulin sensitivity and β-cell function. Further research holds promise for providing valuable insights into the pathophysiology of T2DM. →
