Abstract: Background Adverse pregnancy outcomes such as preeclampsia, fetal growth restriction, preterm delivery, and oligohydramnios contribute significantly to maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Early identification of women at risk allows timely preventive interventions. Maternal serum biomarkers including pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), free beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG), and placental growth factor....

Abstract: Adult intussusception is an uncommon surgical entity that almost invariably harbours a structural lead point, which may be benign or malignant. Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP), also known as Vanek’s tumour, is a rare benign mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract that can serve as such a lead point. We present a 64-year-old male who was admitted with a one-month history of colicky abdominal pain, intermittent constipation and non-bilious vomiting. Abdominal ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) demonstrated ileo-ileal intussusception with a large pedunculated intraluminal mass identified as the causative lead point. The patient....

Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has revolutionized modern dentistry by enabling precise, customized, and efficient treatment solutions. In pediatric dentistry, its application has expanded rapidly, offering innovative approaches in diagnosis, treatment planning, and appliance fabrication. Interceptive orthodontics plays a crucial role in guiding the proper development of occlusion during the mixed dentition stage. The integration of digital technologies into pediatric dental practice has significantly enhanced the efficiency, accuracy, and.......
