Background: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid-dependent pseudo thrombocytopenia (EDTA-PCTP) is defined as a false in vitro decrease in the platelet count performed in the EDTA tube due to the spontaneous formation of platelet aggregates that prevent a...

Background: Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques such as T2 mapping may detect early tendon changes following biologic therapies. This study aimed to assess the structural remodeling of the supraspinatus tendon using mean T2 value...

Background/Objectives: This study investigated the prognostic and predictive significance of Ataxia–Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) expression in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were treated with pembrolizumab. Meth...

Background: The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a universal clinical measure central to assessing kidney function and to the management of kidney disorders. Several formulas for the estimation of GFR are in use. The European Kidney Function Conso...

Background/Objectives: During retroperitoneal surgery, awareness of the anatomic variants of renal arteries (RAs) is essential. We aimed to determine the prevalence of early-branched (short) Ras, the bilateral morphologies of RAs in such cases, and t...

Since the 1990s, the global burden of cerebrovascular disease – particularly stroke – has significantly increased [...]

Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) has significantly impacted the field of infectious disease diagnostics, offering rapid and precise identification of bacterial and fungal pathogens. Unlike traditional culture methods, which may take days to...

Background: Spectral detector computed tomography (SDCT) has demonstrated superior diagnostic performance and image quality in liver disease assessment compared with traditional CT. Selecting the right reconstruction algorithm and tube voltage is ess...

Background: This study investigated PD-L1 and EZH2 immunoexpressions in endometrial carcinomas (ECs) and correlated their associations with clinicopathological parameters and five-year survival outcomes. Methods: A cross-sectional, retrospective stud...
