Introduction: Nowadays, excessive computer use in the workplace has raised concerns about the health status of VDT workers, particularly complaints about eye discomforts. Due to the importance of the eyelids and eye closure parameters on eye health during computer works and the direct effect of monitor height on these parameters, this study was aimed to examine the effect of different monitor h...

cAsE A 29-year-old female patient was admitted after a computed tomography (CT) scan showing a neoplasm measuring 4.5×4.0×4.5cm located in the middle and dorsal part of the left kidney (Figure-1). In the CT plain scan phase, the neoplasm had almost equal density with the normal kidney, and the CT unit was 45. It had a clear boundary, and part of the neoplasm extruded the renal contour. A multip...

Circulating immune parameters-based nomogram for predicting malignancy in laryngeal neoplasm

Neoplasm in the vagina which occurs following treatment of cervical carcinoma could represent a separate primary neoplasm, a “field” response to a common carcinogen, or be due to neoplastic transformation of tissue from previous radiation treatment. Fifty patients with a second neoplasm in the vagina were identified: 17 following total hysterectomy for carcinoma in situ of cervix; 4 following r...

A liver neoplasm was found in a 63-year-old man with alcoholic liver disease. Sonazoid-enhanced ultrasonography (US) showed that the neoplasm was isoechoic at the early vascular phase and hypoechoic at the post-vascular phase. Gadolinium ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that the neoplasm was hypointense at the hepatobiliary phase. We suspected tha...

PURPOSE Colorectal neoplasm and ischemic heart disease (IHD) share common risk factors. However, clinical guidance about screening or surveillance of colorectal neoplasm in patients with IHD has not been made. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between IHD and the development of colorectal neoplasm. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted using the core dat...

Complications associated with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, such as acute pancreatitis, perforation, and fistula formation, have been documented. Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm with intratumoral hemorrhage is rare. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no previous reports of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm rupture and bleeding with intra-abdominal hemorrhage...
