Hi doctor, I am a 41 year old male. My recent ultrasound of thyroid revealed multiple bilateral ganglion formation in area IV. The most prominent was 11 x 8 mm diameter in lower right cervical area. It was mentioned homogeneous thyroid. My doctor suggests clinical follow up due to the number of ganglions in area IV and because they were spotted last year in another ultrasound. I am attaching the ultrasound scan images. What are your main hypothesis for diagnosis from the images and prognosis? Also, what follow up should I do? Thanks in advance.

The COVID-19 pandemic is probably the greatest natural disaster of our generation and the 21st century with a great impact on mental health. The present study aims to quantify, with the help of the Beck questionnaire, the degree of depression in a group of 109 patients with moderate forms of COVID-19, hospitalised in the Second Clinic of the Clinical Hospital for Infectious Diseases St. Cuv. Parascheva Galati during the period: 1.01-30.03.2021. Of these, 35 patients (32.11%) had raging degrees of depression, and had an age and body mass index statistically significantly higher than those without depression. These patients also had statistically significantly higher Charism scores of cumulative comorbidities and required longer hospitalization than patients without depression. The severity of COVID-19 and the parentage of favorable prognosis did not show statistically significant differences between the two groups. Our study reveals a lower incidence of depression among patients with COVID-19 compared to existing studies in the literature. This can be explained the, by act that our study is conducted at the end of the first year of the pandemic when antiviral therapy schemes stabilised and population vaccination began. The high, genetic variability of the tints, which can determine at any time the appearance of new strains with greater aggression, contagion or with mutations on the spike protein, maintains the need to keep non-specific preventive measures and the mental tension related to this pathology. Thus, intrepandemic psychiatric disorders remain a major public health problem and require strong government prevention and control measures.

About 4 months ago I had a filling done in my tooth. It was very sensitive for weeks and I even went back although the dentist said it looked fine when he saw it. Eventually the sensitivity went away. Then about 3 weeks ago my gum next to the filled tooth started shedding.. like if I'd burnt the inside of my mouth. I assumed it must have been something I ate, but now three weeks later it is an open space that I can actually feel my tooth through. There is no pain, but because of the holidays I haven't been able to get into the dentist. Will be trying to get in tomorrow, but I'm hoping someone here can give me an idea of what I'm looking at...

Reactive molecular oxygen (O2) plays important roles in bioenergetics and metabolism and is implicated in biochemical pathways underlying angiogenesis, fertilization, wound healing and regeneration. Here we describe how to use the scanning micro-optrode technique (SMOT) to measure extracellular fluxes of dissolved O2. The self-referencing O2-specific micro-optrode (also termed micro-optode and optical fiber microsensor) is a tapered optical fiber with an O2-sensitive fluorophore coated onto the tip. The O2 concentration is quantified by fluorescence quenching of the fluorophore emission upon excitation with blue-green light. The micro-optrode presents high spatial and temporal resolutions with improved signal-to-noise ratio (in the picomole range). In this protocol, we provide step-by-step instructions for micro-optrode calibration, validation, example applications and data analysis. We describe how to use the technique for cells (Xenopus oocyte), tissues (Xenopus epithelium and rat cornea), organs (Xenopus gills and mouse skin) and appendages (Xenopus tail), and provide recommendations on how to adapt the approach to different model systems. The basic, user-friendly system presented here can be readily installed to reliably and accurately measure physiological O2 fluxes in a wide spectrum of biological models and physiological responses. The full protocol can be performed in ~4 h.

Trisomy 18: Trisomy 18 is a genetic disorder in which a person has a third copy of material from chromosome 18, instead of the usual 2 copies. Trisomy 18 occurs in 1 in 6,000 live births. It is 3 times more common in girls than boys. The syndrome occurs when there is extra material from chromosome 18. The extra material affects normal development. Symptoms may include: - Clenched hands - Crossed legs - Feet with a rounded bottom (rocker-bottom feet) - Low birth weight - Low-set ears - Mental delay - Poorly developed fingernails - Small head (microcephaly) - Small jaw (micrognathia) - Undescended testicle - Unusual shaped chest (pectus carinatum) An exam during pregnancy may show an unusually large uterus and extra amniotic fluid. There may be an unusually small placenta when the baby is born. A physical exam of the infant may show unusual fingerprint patterns. X-rays may show a short breast bone. Chromosome studies will show trisomy 18. The chromosome abnormality may be present in every cell or present in only a certain percentage of the cells (called mosaicism). Studies may also show part of the chromosome in some cells. Rarely, part of the chromosome 18 becomes attached to another chromosome. This is called translocation. Other signs include: - Hole, split, or cleft in the iris of the eye (coloboma) - Separation between the left and right side of the abdominal muscle (diastasis recti) - Umbilical hernia or inguinal hernia There are often signs of congenital heart disease, such as: - Atrial septal defect (ASD) - Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) - Ventricular septal defect (VSD) Tests may also show kidney problems, including: - Horseshoe kidney - Hydronephrosis - Polycystic kidney There are no specific treatments for trisomy 18. Which treatments are used depend on the person's individual condition. Support groups include: - Support Organization for Trisomy 18, 13 and Related Disorders (SOFT): trisomy.org - Trisomy 18 Foundation: www.trisomy18.org - Hope for Trisomy 13 and 18: www.hopefortrisomy13and18.org Half of infants with this condition do not survive beyond the first week of life. Nine out of 10 children will die by 1 year of age. Some children have survived to the teenage years, but with serious medical and developmental problems. Complications depend on the specific defects and symptoms. Genetic counseling can help families understand the condition, the risks of inheriting it, and how to care for the person. Tests can be done during pregnancy to find out if the child has this syndrome. Genetic testing is recommended for parents who have a child with this syndrome and who want to have more children.

I woke up in bed night before last and noticed that the pulse on my left wrist was throbbing. I have checked it on a few occasions since and it remains throbbing. My blood pulse when I took it was about 80 - normally it is about mid to upper 60s. The pulse throbbing remains visible. I am currently on a lot of medication for sciatica and wonder if this could be the cause. I am also continuing to have a lot of pain re the sciatica which an MRI scan has revealed to most likely be spinal stenosis - bone spurs pressing on the nerves at the base of my spine. Should I contact my Doctor about the pulse issue?

Hi, I have a rash on my mons pubis with clearly defined lines which I thought was ringworm and it spread. The area then became raised and if I squeezed the raised area, white pus came out. (It looked like raised circles with spots all around the edges that contained the pus.) The raised area has now "deflated" but it is still incredibly itchy and the defined lines are still there. What do you think this could be? Thank you!

The gut microbiota has been shown to play diverse roles in human health and disease although the underlying mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Large cohort studies can provide further understanding into inter-individual differences, with more precise characterization of the pathways by which the gut microbiota influences human physiology and disease processes. Here, we aimed to profile the stool microbiome of children and adults from two population-based cohort studies, comprising 2,111 children in the age-range of 9 to 12 years (the Generation R Study) and 1,427 adult individuals in the range of 46 to 88 years of age (the Rotterdam Study). For the two cohorts, 16S rRNA gene profile datasets derived from the Dutch population were generated. The comparison of the two cohorts showed that children had significantly lower gut microbiome diversity. Furthermore, we observed higher relative abundances of genus Bacteroides in children and higher relative abundances of genus Blautia in adults. Predicted functional metagenome analysis showed an overrepresentation of the glycan degradation pathways, riboflavin (vitamin B2), pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and folate (vitamin B9) biosynthesis pathways in children. In contrast, the gut microbiome of adults showed higher abundances of carbohydrate metabolism pathways, beta-lactam resistance, thiamine (vitamin B1) and pantothenic (vitamin B5) biosynthesis pathways. A predominance of catabolic pathways in children (valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation) as compared to biosynthetic pathways in adults (valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis) suggests a functional microbiome switch to the latter in adult individuals. Overall, we identified compositional and functional differences in gut microbiome between children and adults in a population-based setting. These microbiome profiles can serve as reference for future studies on specific human disease susceptibility in childhood, adulthood and specific diseased populations.

Blood transfusion, using the safest conventional blood bioproducts, is an irreplaceable part of substitution therapy. It is considered the most essential supportive clinical intervention aimed to restore the health of patients in need. Nevertheless, numerous unresolved problems are still associated with current blood substitution therapy. To alleviate our dependency on blood donors, many investigators have been focusing on the quest for stem cell-derived blood cells in line with major developments in the field of regenerative medicine. The main objective is to provide a safe and highly standardized universal cultured red cell concentrate [CRBC] for all clinical applications, regardless of blood groups. Currently, we are close to overcoming some of the main obstacles in culturing cells. This concise report is a prelude to the immortalized cell lines that are ready for in vivo clinical trials. It is only through the sharing of experimental ideas and knowledge-based strategies that we will be able to achieve such an enormous task and better understand ‘’the one for all concept’’ of CRBCs and their universal usage in all clinical settings.

Background: Home treatment of patients affected by COVID-19 is still a matter of daily debate During the clinical evolution of the disease, there are high risks of lung failure, which requires oxygen therapy Here, we report our clinical experience with at-home treatment using high-flow nasal cannula in non-hospitalised patients with confirmed COVID-19 Patients and methods: In this study, 18 patients with moderate-to-severe respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19 were monitored at home daily for temperature and SpO2 measurements Other parameters such as saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2), SpO2/FiO2 (fraction of inspired oxygen), temperature, and lung performance were monitored periodically Depending on oxygen requirements, the patients also received either standard oxygen via a face mask or, if higher FiO2 required, high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) Results: All 18 patients had favourable outcomes and recovered from COVID-19 No death was recorded in this group Conclusion: Our clinical experience proves that high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy may be considered for at-home treatment of COVID-19 patients with moderate lung failure This could be useful for further treatment during the pandemic and may also be considered in future epidemics

Now, she is sleeping and not shivering. again after 45 min of first dose i gave her 5 ml of crocin just to reduce temp.

I started feeling a painless throbbing sensation in my head. I am also experiencing dizzy spells. I recently had a baby about 5 months ago. I am nearsighted but choose not to wear glasses or contacts even though my sight has over time been causing me to strain while watching television even on a 50 inch screen. I have also recently gone from about 5 to 6 cups of coffee a day to 1 or 2 very suddenly. I am hoping one of the above is the cause for my discomfort and isnt something more serious. please help.

Hello Doctor. For last 6-8 months i am experiencing, body rashes , severe itching all over the body, which includes Head, arms, thighs, lower back and sometimes bumps on the forehead . I sometimes get itching on the tip of the penis and around the testicles. Is this a sign of HIV virus or Cancer? I did take Claritin and Aerius medicines but after taking them i get relief for 10 days - but again the itching rashes starts 9-10 days after taking the medication . Lets say i take medice today, all rashes will come back after 10 days. Especially after taking shower it rashes the most. Please advise as ur help is very much appreciated. AAA

I am a therapist in a skilled nursing facility. I am working with a patient that has a terrible rash with itching and MD says scabies was ruled out at prior hospital admission prior to surgical procedure. I have been using standard precautions but over the past few days have developed about 4 small red bumps wrist, elbow and abdomen and not sure if I just have the Eebie Jeebeez but feel pinching and itching on various other parts of my body. I won t be able to get into dermatologist for another week and do not want to take any chances in spreading to family members. The itch comes and goes and the redness on the bumps go away. I see no tell tale tracks with the bumps. Any impression or advise?

Hello doctor, I have multiple small cysts in both ovaries (PCOS). Our family friend suggested me to consume Kalarchikai medicine, powdered mixed with pepper and honey to have it for one mandalam (48 days). I have completed nearly 44 days by consuming one small ball of the mixture every morning and before two weeks I got my periods. Then I had checked whether the cysts were dissolved by having an abdomen scan. But still, small multiple follicules have been seen in it with both ovaries enlarged. Kindly suggest me what I can do further. I got married before one and a half years and I am much worried about my pregnancy. I have gallstones as well.

Noticed in bed last night that the left gland under my chin was swollen - only the left. It doesn t hurt except a slight tightness in swallowing. I do not have any other symptoms. It seems to have gone down a little by the time I woke up - but now it seems quite enlarged again - like a very soft egg. I think it responds to cold a little - when I put my cold hand that had just held a cold water bottle to the site it seemed to retract slightly.

Multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has multiple applications in molecular biology, including developing new targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels. We present NGS-PrimerPlex, an efficient and versatile command-line application that designs primers for different refined types of amplicon-based genome target enrichment. It supports nested and anchored multiplex PCR, redistribution among multiplex reactions of primers constructed earlier, and extension of existing NGS-panels. The primer design process takes into consideration the formation of secondary structures, non-target amplicons between all primers of a pool, primers and high-frequent genome single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) overlapping. Moreover, users of NGS-PrimerPlex are free from manually defining input genome regions, because it can be done automatically from a list of genes or their parts like exon or codon numbers. Using the program, the NGS-panel for sequencing the LRRK2 gene coding regions was created, and 354 DNA samples were studied successfully with a median coverage of 97.4% of target regions by at least 30 reads. To show that NGS-PrimerPlex can also be applied for bacterial genomes, we designed primers to detect foodborne pathogens Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus considering variable positions of the genomes.
