47 [1.38-1.58], P = 4.12x10 -28). RGDyK datasheet Manifested pain had a small effect on increased risk for insomnia (OR [95% CI] = 1.04 [1.01-1.07], P < 0.05). Results were consistent in sensitivity analyses.

Our findings support a bidirectional causal relationship between insomnia and pain. These data support further clinical investigation into the utility of insomnia treatment as a strategy for pain management and vice versa.

Is there an association between patients' reproductive history and the mean euploidy rates per biopsied blastocysts (m-ER) or the live birth rates (LBRs) per first single vitrified-warmed euploid blastocyst transfers?

Patients' reproductive history (as annotated during counselling) showed no association with the m-ER, but a lower LBR was reported after euploid blastocyst transfer in women with a history of repeated implantation failure (RIF).

Several studies have investigated the association between the m-ER and (i) patients' basal characteristics, (ii) ovarian stimulation strategy and dosage, (iii) culture media and conditions, and (iv) embryo morphology and day of full blastocyst development. Conversely, the expected m-ER due to women's reproductive history (previous live births (LBs), miscarriages, failed IVF cycles and transfers, and lack of euploid blastocysts among prior cohorts of biopsied embryos) still needs investigations. Yet, this information is critical to counsel new patients about a firstr completed PGT-A cycle should be larger in future studies. The data should be confirmed from a multicentre perspective. The analysis should be performed also in non-PGT cycles and/or including patients who did not produce blastocysts, in order to investigate a putative association between women's reproductive history with outcomes other than euploidy and LBRs.

These data are critical to counsel infertile couples before, during and after a PGT-A cycle, especially to prevent treatment discontinuation due to previous adverse reproductive events. Beyond the 'maternal age effect', the causes of idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and RIF are likely to be endometrial receptivity and selectivity issues; transferring euploid blastocysts might reduce the risk of a further miscarriage, but more information beyond euploidy are required to improve the prognosis in case of RIF.

N/A.Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, otherwise known as Bactrim or Septra, is a commonly prescribed antibiotic for soft tissue infections. Drug-induced thrombocytopenia is a rare but serious adverse reaction to sulfonamide antibiotics like Bactrim/Septra. A 34-year-old active duty marine male with no significant past medical history presented with a chief complaint of a rash on his lower extremities. The patient stated that 2 weeks earlier, he was prescribed Bactrim for cellulitis at the site of a new tattoo. The intern noted a petechial rash that was pathognomonic for thrombocytopenia. Laboratory testing confirmed the patient's thrombocytopenia with platelets of 2,000/μL on initial complete blood count, without pancytopenia or other coagulopathies. The blood smear indicated a profound lack of platelets but otherwise normal cell counts and morphology. In the emergency department, the patient was typed and crossed, platelets were ordered, and hematology-oncology was consulted. Once admitted to the internal medicine ward, he was administered glucocorticoids as well as platelet transfusions. He was monitored for 3 days and discharged with a diagnosis of resolved drug-induced thrombocytopenia. This case illustrates the importance of conducting a thorough review of systems and physical examination in stable and otherwise healthy patients. In this case, the seemingly benign rash was one of the only clinical signs of severe thrombocytopenia, with a high risk of spontaneous bleeding in clinically significant organ systems. It is important to recognize immune thrombocytopenic purpura as a potential complication of Bactrim/Septra, as this antibiotic is widely used by military providers in operational settings.

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) seems to achieve a significantly larger nodule volume reduction rate (VRR) than laser ablation (LA) in benign nonfunctioning thyroid nodules (BNTNs).

To compare the efficacy and safety of both treatments at 12-month follow-up in patients with solid or predominantly solid BNTN.

This was a single-center, 12-month, randomized, superiority, open-label, parallel-group trial conducted in an outpatient clinic. Sixty patients with a solitary BNTN or dominant nodule characterized by pressure symptoms/cosmetic problems were randomly assigned (11 ratio) to receive either a single session of RFA or LA. Twenty-9 patients per group completed the study. The main outcome measures were VRR and proportion of nodules with more than 50% reduction (technical success rate).

At 12 months, VRR was 70.9 ± 16.9% and 60.0 ± 19.0% in the RFA and LA groups, respectively (P = .024). This effect was confirmed in the linear regression model that was adjusted for age, sex, nodule baseline volume, and proportion of cellular components (RFA treatment β = .390; P = .009). No significant between-group difference was observed in the technical success rate at 12 months after treatment. A statistically significant improvement was observed from the baseline to the 12-month follow-up for compression (RFA 4.6 ± 2.6 and 1.3 ± 0.8, P < .001; and LA 4.6 ± 2.1 and 1.6 ± 0.8, respectively, P < .001) and cosmetic (RFA 3.4 ± 0.6 and 1.3 ± 0.5, P < .001; and LA 3.4 ± 0.5 and 1.4 ± 0.6, P < .001) scores although the between-group differences were not significant.

RFA achieved a significantly larger nodule volume reduction at 12 months; however, the technical success rate was similar in the RFA and LA groups.
