    Abstract The interaction between extracellular vesicles (EVs) and SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, especially in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) is insufficiently studied. EVs are small membrane-bound particles involved in cell-cell communications in different physiological and pathological conditions, including inflammation and infection. The CF airway cells release EVs that differ from those released by healthy cells and may play an intriguing role in regulating the inflammatory response to SARS-CoV-2. On the one hand, EVs may activate neutrophils and exacerbate inflammation. On the other hand, EVs may block IL-6, a pro-inflammatory cytokine associated with severe COVID-19, and protect PwCF from adverse outcomes. EVs are regulated by TGF-β signaling, essential in different disease states, including COVID-19. Here, we review the knowledge, identify the gaps in understanding, and suggest future research directions to elucidate the role of EVs in PwCF during COVID-19.

    Abstract Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous microorganism that is isolated from a variety of sources such as soil, water, decaying vegetation, sewage, animal feeds, silage, farm environments and food-processing environments. This study aimed to determine the prevalence, serogroups, biofilm formation, virulence factor genes, and genetic relationships of L. monocytogenes strains isolated from beef meat and meat contact surfaces obtained from a slaughterhouse in Burdur, Turkey. In this study, a total of 179 beef meat and meat contact surface samples were analyzed for the presence of L. monocytogenes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Out of a total of 179 beef meat and meat contact surface samples, 83 (46.37%) were found to be contaminated with L. monocytogenes, with the highest incidence (53.01%) occurring in beef meat. In the present study, most of the isolated strains belonged to serogroups IIB and IVB (lineage I). The L. monocytogenes strain also contained monoA-B, prfA, plcA, plcB, mpl, hlyA, actA, gtcA, dltA, Fri, flaA, InlA, InlC, InlJ, and iap genes. Biofilm formation was not determined in the tested samples at pH 5.5 and different temperatures (4°C, 10°C, 25°C, and 37°C). However, strong biofilm formation was observed in 6.45% (2/31) of the strains at pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation at 37°C, and in 3.22% (1/31) of the strains at pH 7.0 after 48 h incubation at 4°C and 10°C. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) results showed that L. monocytogenes isolates were clonally related, and cross-contamination was present. In addition, PFGE results also revealed that AscI had more distinguishing power than the ApaI restriction enzyme. These results indicate that L. monocytogenes detected from meat and meat contact surfaces in the slaughterhouse pose a potential risk to public health.

    Abstract Objective: We aim to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the gastric biopsy Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antigen stool test as a novel method for detecting H. pylori, comparing this test with the histopathological evaluation of H. pylori and H. pylori antigen stool test as the reference standards.
    Patients and methods: The study involves patients who are scheduled for an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Gastric biopsies were endoscopically obtained from all patients, and H. pylori antigen stool tests were performed for all patients. Results from the gastric biopsies that were studied using the H. pylori antigen stool test in terms of the novel method were obtained and recorded. The inter-rater agreement between the H. pylori tests in determining positive and negative results was investigated using Fleiss' and Cohen's kappa tests. The capacity of applied tests in predicting the presence of H. pylori was analyzed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
    Results: A total of 55 patients were studied (32 females and 23 males). The strongest coherence was obtained between the gastric biopsy test and histopathological evaluation with a kappa value of 0.664 in Cohen's kappa analysis of overall coherence between tests. The most accurate sensitivity and specificity values were obtained for the gastric biopsy test and histopathological evaluation crosstabulation for both overall comparisons at 90.5% sensitivity and 79.4% specificity.
    Conclusions: With this new, rapid, and easy-to-apply method, patients' endoscopies and gastric biopsies looking for the presence of H. pylori would be determined with more sensitive and more specific accuracy rates than current antigen stool tests, and H. pylori can be eradicated immediately without waiting for the histopathological evaluation period.

    Abstract Objective: To examine the cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS) symptoms of mothers of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
    Method: The participants consisted of 223 mothers of children with ADHD, and data were collected using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5 Disorders-Clinician Version (SCID-5-CV), the Stroop Test (ST), the Barkley Adult SCT Scale (CDS), and the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS).
    Results: The participants were divided into four groups based on psychopathology: the group without any psychiatric disorder, the group with only ADHD, the group with a psychiatric disorder other than ADHD, and the group with another psychiatric disorder along with ADHD. The group with any psychiatric disorder along with ADHD had the highest CDS scores, while the group without any psychopathology had the lowest CDS scores.
    Conclusion: CDS seems to be a construct associated with both ADHD and other internalizing disorders. Further studies are needed to shed more light on these relationships.

    Abstract What is the educational challenge?: A fundamental challenge in medical education is creating high-quality, clinically relevant multiple-choice questions (MCQs). ChatGPT-based automatic item generation (AIG) methods need well-designed prompts. However, the use of these prompts is hindered by the time-consuming process of copying and pasting, a lack of know-how among medical teachers, and the generalist nature of standard ChatGPT, which often lacks the medical context.
    What are the proposed solutions?: The Case-based MCQ Generator, a custom GPT, addresses these challenges. It has been trained by using GPT Builder, which is a platform designed by OpenAI for customizing ChatGPT to meet specific needs, in order to allow users to generate case-based MCQs. By using this free tool for those who have ChatGPT Plus subscription, health professions educators can easily select a prompt, input a learning objective or item-specific test point, and generate clinically relevant questions.
    What are the potential benefits to a wider global audience?: It enhances the efficiency of MCQ generation and ensures the generation of contextually relevant questions, surpassing the capabilities of standard ChatGPT. It streamlines the MCQ creation process by integrating prompts published in medical education literature, eliminating the need for manual prompt input.
    What are the next steps?: Future development aims at sustainability and addressing ethical and accessibility issues. It requires regular updates, integration of new prompts from emerging health professions education literature, and a supportive digital ecosystem around the tool. Accessibility, especially for educators in low-resource countries, is vital, demanding alternative access models to overcome financial barriers.

    Abstract Introduction: Active-fixation leads have been associated with higher incidence of cardiac perforation. Large series specifically evaluating radiographic predictors of right ventricular (RV) lead perforation are lacking.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study including 1691 consecutive patients implanted with an active fixation pacing and defibrillator lead at our institution between January 2015 and January 2021. Fourteen patients who had clinically relevant RV perforation caused by pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator leads were included in the study.
    Results: Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify predictors of RV perforation. In multivariate analysis, lead slack score (odds ratio [OR]: 3.694, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.066-12.807; p = .039), change in lead slack height (OR: 1.218, 95% CI: 1.011-1.467; p = .038) and width (OR: 1.253, 95% CI: 1.120-1.402; p = .001), left ventricular ejection fraction (OR: 0.995, 95% CI: 0.910-1.088; p = .032) were independent predictors of RV perforation.
    Conclusion: Fluoroscopic predictors of RV perforation associated with RV lead can be easily determined during implantation. Identification of these predictors may prevent the sequelae of RV perforation associated with active-fixation leads.

    Abstract Background: The preoperative prediction of intraperitoneal adhesion (IPA) before repeated cesarean deliveries (CD), which are becoming more prevalent, is crucial for maternal health.
    Aim: The aim of the study was to preoperatively predict IPA in repeated CD with the stria gravidarum (SG) scoring system.
    Methods: A total of 167 patients with at least one previous CD at or beyond 37 weeks of gestation were analyzed. Preoperative SG was calculated according to the Davey scoring system: 0-2 score were defined as mild SG (Group 1; n: 94, 56.2%), and 3-8 score were defined as severe SG (Group 2; n = 73, 43.8%). Preoperative previous cesarean incision features were evaluated according to the Vancouver scar scale. IPA was evaluated according to the Nair's and modified Nair's scoring systems.
    Results: Parity, younger age at first pregnancy, higher body mass index, number of previous CDs, rate of scar symptoms, Nair's and the modified Nair's scores were statistically significant in Group 2 (P = 0.01; P = 0.04; P = 0.007; P = 0.004; P < 0.001; P = 0.007; P = 0.02, respectively). Davey score ≥3 and Vancouver score ≥4.5 were determined as the cut-off value to predict IPA (P = 0.1 and 0.07, respectively). According to multivariate analysis, both Davey and Vancouver scores are independent factors in predicting IPA (P = 0.02 and 0.04, respectively).
    Conclusion: Evaluating the SG score through the Davey score in women with a history of previous CD may assist in predicting IPA status before the planning of a subsequent surgery.
