The antepartum, intrapartum and postpartum complications are more in re…

Previous studies have suggested neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was related to worse outcome in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). However, monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR) has not been evaluated in HD patients. In this study, we prospectively studied the predictive value o…

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and mean platelet volume-to-platelet count (MPV/PC) ratio are readily available parameters that might have discriminative power regarding outcome. The aim of our study was to assess prognostic value of these biomarkers regarding outcome in critically ill patients with secondary sepsi…

Tonsillectomy Does Not Decrease the Risk of Helicobacter pylori Transmission
This study has shown that tonsillectomy has no protective effect on H. pylori transmission. There may be 2 reasons for this. First, after bacteria reach into the oral cavity, it directly transmits to the stomach without colonization on the tonsillar tissue. On the other hand, H. pylori may be colonizing upper respiratory tract mucosal tissues other than the tonsils and subsequently causing gas…
