Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a member of thePapillomaviridaefamily. This virus has a double-stranded DNA that can be divided into two groups: low-risk HPVs (LR HPVs) and high-risk HPVs (HR HPVs). LR-HPVs mainly cause cutaneous and anogenital warts, while HR-HPVs have been scientific...
Credit: Pixabay/CC0 Public Domain An analysis of more than 1.6 million emergency department (ED) visits for acute pulmonary embolism (PE) has found that nearly two-thirds of ED visits still resulted in hospitalization for low-risk patients. This trend remained stable between 2012 and 2020, desp...
The results of this study support the evaluation of less intensive treatment strategies in this low-risk group. Further validation of this important finding is ongoing in the MINDACT trial, whereby patients with HER-2-positive disease deemed to be at a high clinical risk by Adjuvant!Online (Rav...
The aim of this study was to compare seven currently available prognostic tools in terms of their ability to identify low-risk patients with acute PE aged <50 years. Methods Study design We retrospectively compared seven different prognosis tools in patients aged <50 years with no-high risk ...

These impacts, together with the higher risk to have extreme climate events during sensitive phonological phases, may have strong negative effects on final yield and on yield quality. The actual impact of phonological change needs to be assessed for specific crop environment combinations, providing ...
they directly elevate the risk of DVT. Secondly, they might induce engorgement (varicosis) of the epi- and intradural veins surrounding the spinal cord, thereby causing neural compression that results in radicular symptoms even in the absence of a DVT. Despite the identification of a compressing ...
Transcatheter AVR is a reasonable alternative to surgical AVR in patients at high (>8%) or intermediate (>4%) risk for surgical AVR. Besides the surgical risk scores, it is also important to consider the type of low-gradient AS to select the type of AVR (Central Illustration). Classical ...
All women with multiple infections (except one) had at least one high-risk type and the prevalence of these multiple infections among HPV-positive women was similar in LSIL (30.8%) and controls (27.6%). The age-adjusted OR for LSIL associated with single HPV infec- tions was 6.1 (95% ...
