EFFICACY OF T2*-WEIGHTED GRADIENT-ECHO MRI IN EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF CEREBRAL VENOUS THROMBOSIS WITH UNILATERAL THALAMIC LESION

Efficacy of T2*-Weighted Gradient-Echo MRI in Early Diagnosis of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis with Unilateral Thalamic Lesion

Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon cause of stroke with diverse etiologies and varied clinical presentations.Because of variability in clinical presentation and neuroimaging, CVT remains a diagnostic challenge.Recently, some studies have highlighted the value of T2*-weighted Plastic Audio Socket Nut gradient-echo MRI (T2*WI) in the dia

Nicorandil-Induced Hyperkalemia in a Uremic Patient

Nicorandil is an antianginal agent with nitrate-like and ATP-sensitive potassium channel activator properties.After carving fork activation of potassium channels, potassium ions are expelled out of the cells, which lead to membrane hyperpolarization, closure of voltage-gated calcium channels, and finally vasodilation.We present a uremic case suffer

A local-ingredients-based supplement is an alternative to corn-soy blends plus for treating moderate acute malnutrition among children aged 6 to 59 months: A randomized controlled non-inferiority trial in Wolaita, Southern Ethiopia.

BackgroundGlobally, moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) affects approximately 5% of children below five years of age.MAM is a persistent public health problem in Ethiopia.The current approach in Ethiopia for managing MAM is a supplementary feeding program; however, this is only provided to chronically food-insecure areas.The objective of the study wa
