Association between resilience promotion factors during childhood and risk of drug use disorder during adulthood
Few studies have been conducted on the relationship between “outside-residing” resilience characteristics and the risk of developing drug use disorder later in life. These characteristics include responsive and caring parenting, household routines involving regular family meals and bedtime routines, social support from peers, participation in organized activities, and religious service attendance.
Predictors of relapse in alcohol use disorder: identifying individuals most vulnerable to relapse
Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is described as a chronic relapsing condition with definitive behavioral markers and is characterized by repeated drug intake despite severe negative consequences [1]. With 12-month prevalence rates at 14% and lifetime estimates of 29% [2], it is clear that AUD adversely and substantially affects individual and societal health [3]. Recognized clinically as affecting decision making, relationships, and neurological function [4]
Long Term Follow-Up of Tocilizumab in Refractory and Non-Infectious Uveitic Cystoid Macular Edema
Uveitis includes a large spectrum of inflammatory disorders characterized by intraocular inflammation. Most uveitis may complicate with cystoid macular edema (CME) and permanent blindness. CME is a swelling of the macula with fluid accumulation within the intracellular spaces of the retina, leading to the formation of cystic spaces [1]. According to anatomical location, panuveitis (36%-66%) and intermediate uveitis (40%- 60%) are the patterns most commonly associated with CME [2]. The immune mediated systemic diseases most related to CME are sarcoidosis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), Birdshot chorioretinopathy and Behçet disease [3-9].
The emergence of new coronaviruses: A critical evaluation of factors, implications, and mitigation strategies
The emergence of new coronaviruses poses a significant global health threat, as witnessed during recent outbreaks. Coronaviruses were first identified in the 1960s, primarily causing mild respiratory illnesses in humans. The introduction of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) in 2002, on the other hand, constituted a watershed moment. The outbreak began in China and swiftly spread to numerous nations, resulting in severe respiratory sickness and a global public health disaster. The SARS-CoV outbreak demonstrated coronaviruses' ability to cause severe illness and inspired substantial study into their origins and transmission patterns.
A novel laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy esophagogastric anastomosis procedure with left placket muscle flap plasty (modified Kamikawa anastomosis): Two cases report and brief literature review
The use of left placket single muscle flap covered anastomosis in proximal gastrectomy has not been reported in the literature. The occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux after proximal gastrectomy is closely related to the mode of digestive tract reconstruction. The currently available digestive tract reconstruction approach affects patient’s postoperative quality of life due to the disadvantages of gastroesophageal reflux and anastomotic stenosis.
