A Slightly Dorsally Tilted Lunate on MRI can be Considered Normal

  Background: Abnormal angulation of the lunate can be an indication of intercarpal pathology. On magnetic resonance images (MRIs) the lunate often looks dorsally angulated, even in healthy wrists. The tilt on individual slices can also be different and might be misinterpreted as pathological, contributing to inaccurate diagnoses and unnecessary surgery. The primary aim of this study was to det...

Staphylococcus lugdunensis; a pathogen that should be considered in Iran

Background: Staphylococcus lugdunensis is Gram-positive cocci of the staphylococcaceae family. S. lugdunensis despite having a clotting factor (wall coagulase), was classified in the coagulase negative staphylococcus group (CoNS) for lack of free coagulase. Although this bacterium is part of the human normal flora, in terms of virulence, S. lugdunensis is in second place after S. aureus. S. lug...

Can Acute Kidney Injury Be Considered a Clinical Quality Measure.

Quality indicators are measurements of healthcare outcome, process, or structure that can be used as tools to measure the quality of care and identify opportunities for improvement. Acute kidney injury (AKI) has many characteristics that make it a potential target for quality indicator development. It is common, associated with a high risk of adverse outcomes, and there are reports of gaps in t...
