Introduction: In the last few decades data on the incidence of acute myocardial infarction are not available in Hungary. Aim: The aim of the authors was to define the incidence of myocardial infarction using the Hungarian Infarction Registry according to the number of in- and out-of-hospital cases in five districts of the capital (districts II, III, IX, X and XVII) and Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county. Method: Besides using the Hungarian Infarction Registry, databases of the National Public Health and Medical Officer Service and that of the Hungarian Central Statistical Office were used in order to define the incidence of prehospital cases, according to the regulations presented in an earlier proposal of the Data Protection Ombudsman of Hungary. Results: For 10 000 residents the incidence of myocardial infarction in the capital was 28.63 in males and 16.21 in females, while in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county the mean incidence was 32.49 for males and 18.59 for females. The mean incidence of myocardial infarction in the five districts of the capital in males and females did not differ from the mean values of Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county. When comparing the incidence values in different districts of the capital to the countryside, the Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg county had significantly higher values for both males and females compared to districts II and III of the capital, while in district X the incidence of myocardial infarction in males was significantly lower compared to the values in the countryside. Conclusions: Using the mean incidence results projected to the capital and countryside population according to age and gender, 20 000 new myocardial infarction cases might be expected per year in Hungary.

The aim: Is to evaluate copetin’s, MRproADM’s and troponin’s I dynamic in patients with acute myocardial infarction depending on the degree of concomitant obesity. Material and methods: The study included 105 patients with AMI. There were formed 2 groups: 1st group of patients with AMI and concomitant obesity (n=75), 2nd group – patients with AMI without obesity (n=30). 37 patients had obesity of the I degree, 38 patients - II degree. The groups were comparable in age and gender. Copeptin, MRproADM, troponin I were determined by enzyme immunoassay method. Data are presented as mean values and the error of the mean (M±m). Differences were considered statistically significant at p<0,05. Results: It was found an increased copeptin’s level by 73,8 % (p<0,001) in obesity I degree and by 205,9 % in obesity II degree compared with group with isolated AMI, MRproADM - by 30,68 % (p<0,001) and 54,5 % (p<0,001) respectively. Concentration of copeptin was higher by 76 % (p<0,001) in patients with AMI and II degree obesity comparing to patients with obesity of I degree, and MRproADM - by 18,3% (p<0,001) respectively. Troponin I value fully corresponded the comparison group both in obesity of I degree and II degree (p>0,05). Conclusions: The present study provides evidence that a high activity of copeptin and MRproADM in patients with AMI and obesity of I degree with an excessive activity of a marker of vasoconstriction copeptin in conditions of moderate inadequate to the needs MRproADM functioning in patients with obesity of II degree.

Aim. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between articular eminence inclination, height, and thickness of the roof of the glenoid fossa (RGF) according to age and gender and to assess condyle morphology including incidental findings of osseous characteristics associated with osteoarthritis (OA) of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).Materials and Methods. CBCT images of 105 patients were evaluated retrospectively. For articular eminence inclination and height, axial views on which the condylar processes were seen with their widest mediolateral extent being used as a reference view for secondary reconstruction. Condyle morphology was categorized both in the sagittal and coronal plane.Results. The mean values of eminence inclination and height of males were higher than those of females (P<0.05). There were significant differences in the RGF thickness in relation to sagittal condyle morphology. Among the group of OA, the mean value of the RGF thickness for “OA-osteophyte” group was the highest (1.59 mm), whereas the lowest RGF values were seen in the “OA-flattening.”Conclusion. The sagittal osteoarthritic changes may have an effect on RGF thickness by mechanical stimulation and changed stress distribution. Gender has a significant effect on eminence height (Eh) and inclination.

Ageing of an individual affects hearing impairment and associated diseases can have a cumulative affect. In 50 examined subjects suffering from Diabetes Mellitus type 1, who were divided into groups according to age, gender and disease duration, auditory function was tested by analyzing results of pure-tone audiometry and brainstem auditory evoked potentials. The obtained results were correlated with the results of 30 healthy controls adequately represented by age and gender. Starting from the age group 30-39 we noticed a significant reduction in the percentage of regular findings in comparison with the control group, as well as an increase in the percentage of sensorineural hearing impairment and mean values of hearing impairment (-dB). In regard to gender, we found a continuing and significant increase in sensorineural hearing impairment in the examined male subjects from the group with the disease. The analysis and correlation of brainstem auditory evoked potentials regarding the age of the examinees did not show any significant impact on the increase in the mean values of the diseased and the controls, whereas regarding the gender, we noticed a significant impact on the increase in the mean values of absolute latencies II (Fd/l=5.1249/9.8144), III (Fd/l=14.0413/9.3169), IV (Fd/l=7.1413/6.3410) and V (Fd/l=12.8753/6.1208) waves as well as of interwave latencies I-III (Fd/l=5.2193/4.9628) mutually in the male examinees. In the diseased group there were significant differences of interwave latencies I-III in men and women both on the left and the right side, where the values in the female subjects were significantly shorter than in the males.

Introduction: Proximal humerus fractures (PHF) constitute the majority of the most common osteoporotic fractures. Bone density measurements can affect treatment methods and outcomes. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of osteoporosis values, measured from direct radiographs, on fracture type, surgical outcomes. Methods: 248 patients over 50 years of age who presented to Mersin City Hospital between 2017 and 2020 with proximal humeral fractures were retrospectively evaluated. The age and gender of the patients and the fracture types were evaluated according to the AO classification system from the direct radiographs obtained at the time of admission were recorded. The Tingart cortical thickness and deltoid tuberosity index (DTI) measurements were used to assess osteoporosis status in all patients. Postoperative and follow-up radiographs of 45 patients, treated with fixed-angle proximal humeral locking plate, were evaluated for radiographic results and their correlations with osteoporosis measurements were examined. Results: According to the demographic characteristics of the patients, 171 patients were female and 77 patients were male (F/M: 3/1), and mean age was 69.2 ± 11.66 (50-95). Considering the bone quality parameters in all patients, the mean Tingart value was 5.8 ± 1.6 mm and the mean DTI was 1.43 ± 0.17, where there was a correlation between the Tingart value and DTI (r = 0.810 and p < 0.001). Although there was a statistically significant relationship between the osteoporosis parameters and age and gender (p < 0.001 and p = 0.023, respectively), main AO fracture types were not related to osteoporosis (p < 0.05). In the operated group (n = 48, 19%), 19 patients (42%) showed poor outcomes, which were not associated with age and osteoporosis parameters. Conclusion: This study was concluded that osteoporosis parameters differ between genders and age groups in patients with PHF, however osteoporosis is not the main factor affecting the fracture type and surgical outcomes.

Abstract Background Sweden has contributed to the understanding of the long-term prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI) utilising the quality registry SWEDEHEART, including patients admitted to heart intensive care, and the National Patient Registry (PAR), based on administrative records for Swedish hospitals. As registration procedures differ between the registries, and not all MI patients are admitted to heart intensive care, MI patients identified in SWEDEHEART and PAR, respectively, will yield different cohorts of patients. This may result in different epidemiological research findings regarding prognosis after MI. Purpose To study MI populations identified in SWEDEHEART and PAR, respectively, and investigate potential differences in mortality outcome. Methods Patients hospitalised with an MI primary diagnosis (ICD-10 I21) between 2002 and 2015 were identified using SWEDEHEART and PAR. The analysis time started at the date of hospital admission and survivors were followed for 365 days. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate survival by cohort category controlling for age and gender. Results Excluding cases with invalid data (n=1,905), 225,612 and 282,118 SWEDEHEART and PAR patients, respectively, were identified. We found 213,367 patients in both SWEDEHEART and PAR, whereas 12,245 and 68,751 patients were unique to SWEDEHEART and PAR, respectively. The one-year survival probability after MI in the SWEDEHEART population was 0.841, compared to 0.788 in PAR (Figure). This discrepancy can be explained by high mortality among patients not covered by SWEDEHEART and persists after controlling for age and gender (Table). To what extent differences in registration procedures and other patient characteristics can explain the mortality difference is an area for further research.

Although further research is needed to fully understand these differences, epidemiological findings regarding MI prognosis should be interpreted in light of registry type used and population represented.

ABSTRACT Objectives The purpose of the study was to analyze the frequency and distribution of gingival lesions in MR Ambedkar Dental College, Bengaluru. Materials and methods The material included the biopsies of all localized reactive hyperplastic lesions (LRHL) of the gingiva stored in the department's database (1995-2011). The lesions were analyzed according to their location and the patient's age and gender. The findings were compared with other published studies on reactive lesions. Results A total of 260 reactive lesion biopsies were accessed. focal fibrous hyperplasia (FFH) was the most common (38.5%), followed by pyogenic granuloma (PG) (34.6%), peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) (17.7%) and peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) (9.2%). The mean age of the patients was 33 years, with a range varying from 9 to 80 years. The LRHL occurred more commonly in females except focal fibrous hyperplasia, which showed male predilection. PG and POF were more common in the maxilla and FFH as well as PGCG were more common in the mandible. Conclusion This study indicates some differences in age and gender distribution as well as in location between the different lesions. The results of this study differ from those of other studies and the data presented here can be used as a guide for further multicenter studies. How to cite this article Ramu S, Rodrigues C.
