This study analyzed peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets to determine their role in the etiopathogenesis of IGM. ⋯ Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis is defined as a localized form of granulomatous disorders. However, the observed changes in T cells, NK, and NKT cells suggest that there is systemic immune dysregulation in patients with IGM.

The effects of systemic magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) on retina in preterm hypoxic-ischemic (HI) rat model are not known. Our aim was to investigate the effects of MgSO4 on retinal ganglion cell (RGC) count, retinal ganglion cell (RGC) apoptotic index, retinal vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2), and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expressions in preterm HI rat model. ⋯ Magnesium sulfate preconditioning and treatment in preterm HI rat model might diminish apoptosis, relatively preserve RGCs, and reduce retinal VEGFR-2 and GFAP expressions.

Investigation Of The Effects Of Propofol/Ketamine Versus Propofol/Fentanyl On Nausea-Vomiting Administered For Sedation In Children Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Prospective Randomized Double-Blinded Study.
In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of propofol-ketamine and propofol-fentanyl sedations on post- procedure nausea-vomiting in children undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). ⋯ In our study, we showed that the vomiting rate was higher in the 1st hour in Group K compared to Group F.

THE USE OF HIGH-FLOW NASAL OXYGEN VS. STANDARD OXYGEN THERAPY IN HEMATOLOGICAL MALIGNANCY PATIENTS WITH ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE IN HEMATOLOGY WARDS.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) was mostly used in intensive care units (ICUs) with few studies in other departments. We hypothesized that HFNC applied at wards is beneficial for acute respiratory failure in hematological malignancy patients. ⋯ HFNC applied in wards is not superior to standard oxygen treatment for acute respiratory failure in hematological malignancy patients.

The present study aimed to determine the association between attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms severity, fibromyalgia (FM) severity, and QoL. ⋯ Our findings indicated that the presence of ADHD symptoms was related to greater FM symptom severity and poorer QoL. Also, ADHD scores would mediate the relationship between depression severity and QoL.
