Overview

Here are Top Medical Stories of the day

Circumcision reduces risk of febrile UTI in boys

Results from the CIRCUP randomized trial have suggested that circumcision significantly decreases the risk of febrile UTI (fUTI) in boys with posterior urethral valves (PUVs). The findings, published in the journal European Urology, imply that circumcision should be considered routinely in such populations to reduce the likelihood of fUTI.

Boys with PUVs are known to be at increased risk of febrile urinary tract infections and circumcision is believed to reduce this risk. Although, no randomized trials have demonstrated this. To fill this knowledge gap, Luke Harper, Department of Pediatric Surgery, CHU de La Réunion, Saint-Denis de La Réunion, France, and colleagues aimed to determine the effect of circumcision on the risk of fUTIs in boys with PUVs.

Vitamin D deficiency associated with paediatric epilepsy

Vitamin D deficiency has been suggested to possibly contribute to conditions such as autoimmune disorders such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and neurodegenerative disorders, and epilepsy.

A new study by Napakjira Likasitthananon and team has reported that approximately two-thirds of pediatric epilepsy patients had hypovitaminosis D. The study prompts clinicians to measure vitamin D status in pediatric epilepsy patients particularly.

Increased whole grain consumption reduces diabetes incidence

Increased consumption of whole grain foods could significantly reduce the incidence of type 2 diabetes and the costs associated with its treatment in Finland, according to a recent study by the University of Eastern Finland and the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare. The findings were published in Nutrients.

"Our study shows that already one serving of full grains as part of the daily diet reduces the incidence of type 2 diabetes at the population level and, consequently, the direct diabetes-related costs, when compared to people who do not eat whole grain foods on a daily basis. Over the next ten years, society's potential to achieve cost savings would be from 300 million (-3.3%) to almost one billion (-12.2%) euros in current value, depending on the presumed proportion of whole grain foods in the daily diet. On the level of individuals, this means more healthier years," says Professor Janne Martikainen from the University of Eastern Finland.

Lowering blood insulin levels could lower risk of COVID-19

Keeping blood insulin levels within strict, healthy parameters is a daily goal for people with diabetes.

Regulating blood insulin levels may even help lower the risk of getting COVID-19, find researchers from Japan. The researchers have revealed that a protein called GRP78 helps the virus that causes COVID-19 bind to and enter cells. GRP78 is a protein that is found in adipose tissue (i.e., fat).

Angiography after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest of no benefit

Early angiography shows no benefit over a delayed or selective strategy with regards to the 30-day risk of death from any cause in patients with resuscitated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest without ST-segment elevation, finds a recent study. The study findings were published in the New England Journal of Medicine on August 29, 2021.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a common cause of lead to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Steffen Desch and colleagues aimed to determine the benefits of early coronary angiography and revascularization in resuscitated patients without electrocardiographic evidence of ST segment elevation
