Oral cancer is a major global health concern, with a particularly high incidence in developing countries. Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) offer a critical opportunity for early detection and intervention. Identifying reliable, non-invasive biomarkers such as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in biological fluids could significantly improve diagnostic and monitoring strategies. This study aimed to clinically and biochemically evaluate LDH concentrations in both serum and saliva among patients with histopathologically confirmed OPMDs, comparing them to healthy controls to assess their dia

Early and accurate diagnosis of these infections is important not only for timely institution of antifungal therapy, but it can also significantly reduce mortality. Our study aims to determine diagnostic accuracy of periodic acid-schiff stain (PAS) in diagnosis of fungal infection among nasofacial biopsies by taking gomorimethenamine silver stain (GMS) as gold standard. The cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Pathology KEMU, Mayo Hospital,

A study at King Edward Medical University Lahore involved 56 specimens from patients' skin, soft tissue, and wounds. Staphylococcus detection was performed using blood agar, Methicillin disc, and Chromagr plate. The study assessed Chromagar's diagnostic accuracy. Data entry and analysis was done by using computers software SPSS 17.0. Quantitative variables were presented by using mean±SD and qualitative variables were presented by using frequency ta

Most of these patients are asymptomatic and are usually diagnosed with the infection when they undergo infertility diagnostic procedures. Study aims to compare the prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis antibodies (IgG) in infertile and pregnant women in Abuja, Nigeria. This was a comparative study, which included 150 women with female factor infertility (tubal factor)
Read MoreThe relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) has been the subject of conflicting reports. We have assessed the prevalence of H. pylori infection as the cause of anemia and IDA in patients with dyspepsia, given the high prevalence of H. pylori infection. The study was conducted in Pakistan from August 2024 to December 2024, involving individuals aged 15 or older who reported symptoms such as epigastric discomfort, burning, abdominal bloating, nausea, or vomiting. The study used an organized survey to gather information about age, gender, health record,
