Periodontitis
Oral diseases, particularly dental caries, developmental defects of the dental tissues and periodontal or orthodontic issues have a complex and interrelated aetiology with common, primarily behavioral based risk factors. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Scalp Mass
This entity may initially be presented to the dermatologist as a scalp mass and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of infants with rapidly growing head and neck lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Dystonia

T Wave Inversion
Abnormal Q waves with T waves inversion, particularly in avL, dilated RCA and increased ratio of RCA/AO are important differential key points for the identification of ALCAPA and EFE. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
Over a total of 52 treatment months, no serious adverse effects occurred. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Awareness of this condition is essential for prompt recognition and referral to a tertiary cardiac center to enable early surgical intervention and improved prognosis for these children. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology
The etiology remains still unknown. The potential triggers of AHEI include preceding bacterial or viral infections, immunizations, and drugs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epidemiology
Epidemiological, clinical, radiological, pathological, and immunohistochemical examinations were reviewed. A statistical analysis using a t-test was conducted to calculate parameters correlating with tumor recurrence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
