BACKGROUND: Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a predictor of serious infectious complications, organ failure, and death in patients with severe polytrauma and is one of the reasons for delaying early total surgical treatment. To deter...
BACKGROUND: Burnout is usually defined as a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion that affects people in various professions (e.g. physicians, nurses, teachers). The consequences of burnout involve decreased motivation, productivity, an...
Glioma, a predominant type of brain tumor, can be fatal. This necessitates an early diagnosis and effective treatment strategies. Current diagnosis is based on biopsy, prompting the need for non invasive neuroimaging alternatives. Diffusion tensor im...
