“…However, for women without sexual activity, performing hysteroscopic electropolypectomy is very difficult. Only a few cases have discussed the protection of hymen integrity during surgery [ 6 ]. Victoria reported a case of hysteroscopic resection of endometrial polyps in a twelve-year-old girl.…”

Background To investigate the clinical efficacy of the MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal system in the treatment of endometrial and cervical polyps in women with an intact hymen. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 32 patients treated with the MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal system for endometrial and cervical polyps. Results All the patients successfully completed the procedure. No intraoperative complications, such as cervical trauma, uterine perforation or TURP syndrome, were reported. The surgical time ranged from 5 to 35 min, with an average time of 19.3 min, and the intraoperative blood loss ranged from 2 to 50 ml with an average blood loss of 10.8 ml. After surgery, all patients were shown to have intact hymens. No residual polyp tissues were observed under the microscope, and abnormal uterine bleeding was relieved. Conclusions The MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal system can be a safe and effective treatment for endometrial and cervical polyps in women with an intact hymen.

“…Neural network research focuses on infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases, but it is also closely related to thrombotic diseases (acute myocardial infarction). 17,18 NETs are a newly discovered neutrophil bactericidal mechanism that activates neutrophils to release chromatin and then combine with the gingival sulcus to form a new defence network against gingival plaque bacteria. 19 It has been reported 20,21 that under the induction of IL-8, LPS and interferon, the neutrophil nucleus is deformed, the chromatin is homogeneous, the nuclear membrane is broken, the nuclear material is directly in contact with the particles, forming a mixture, and finally the cell membrane is broken and NETs are released.…”

We sought to compare the characteristics and clinical significance of neutrophil extracellular traps in gingival samples from patients with periodontitis and those with gingivitis. The clinical indexes of gingival samples from patients with periodontitis and gingivitis were measured; the expression of TNF-alpha and IL-8 was measured by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR; and the expression of TLR-8 and MMP-9 was measured by western blotting assays. Chemotaxis, phagocytosis and phagocytic activity of neutrophils were measured. Compared with the healthy group, the expression of TNF-α and IL-8 in the periodontitis group and the gingivitis group increased significantly (p < 0.05), and TNF-α in the gingivitis group was significantly lower than that in the healthy group (p < 0.05). The expression of IL-8 in the periodontitis group was significantly higher than that in the periodontitis group (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the expression of TLR-8 and MMP-9 in the periodontitis group was different from that in the gingivitis group and the healthy group, and the expression of TLR-8 and MMP-9 in the gingivitis group was significantly different from that in the healthy group (p < 0.05). In addition, the neutrophil mobility index in healthy people was 3.02 ± 0.53, that in the periodontitis group was 2.21 ± 0.13, and that in the gingivitis group was 2.31 ± 0.12. In conclusion, the chemotaxis of neutrophils in gingival samples of patients with periodontitis and gingivitis was decreased, the phagocytotic ability and activity of neutrophils were reduced, and the release of the extracellular trap-releasing inducible factors TNF-alpha and IL-8 also declined.

Consultation prioritization is fundamental in optimal healthcare management and its performance can be helped by artificial intelligence (AI)-dedicated software and by digital medicine in general. The need for remote consultation has been demonstrated not only in the pandemic-induced lock-down but also in rurality conditions for which access to health centers is constantly limited. The term “AI” indicates the use of a computer to simulate human intellectual behavior with minimal human intervention. AI is based on a “machine learning” process or on an artificial neural network. AI provides accurate diagnostic algorithms and personalized treatments in many fields, including oncology, ophthalmology, traumatology, and dermatology. AI can help vascular specialists in diagnostics of peripheral artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, and deep vein thrombosis by analyzing contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound data and in diagnostics of pulmonary embolism on multi-slice computed angiograms. Automatic methods based on AI may be applied to detect the presence and determine the clinical class of chronic venous disease. Nevertheless, data on using AI in this field are still scarce. In this narrative review, the authors discuss available data on AI implementation in arterial and venous disease diagnostics and care.
