    Abstract Introduction: Myxofibrosarcoma also known as myxoid malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma that has a predilection for the elderly (beyond the 6th decade).
    Clinical observation: We report a case of a 64 years old patient that presented gradual appearance of huge tumor on her left buttock. Radiologic examination (MRI) concluded to MFS. There was no evidence of systemic involvement. The patient was directed in an oncology center, where the diagnostis of MFS was confirmed through surgical biopsy.
    Discussion: MFS is one of the most frequent sarcoma of soft tissue that occurs in elderly patients. This is an infiltrant tumor that is extending through muscular fascia. MRI is the gold standard in characterisation; it makes the positive diagnosis of MFS thanks to the myxoid signal, triple signal and the tail sign that is corresponding to the extension of the tumor into the muscular fascia and peri nervous spaces.
    Conclusion: Cross-sectionnal imaging in particular MRI plays a key role in the positive diagnosis of soft tissue tumors. It makes possible to approach with great precision the exact nature of the tumor thanks to specific radiological semiology without however claiming to replace histology.

    Abstract Sleep is an imperative physiological aspect that plays a vital role in maintaining hormonal and humeral functions of the body and hence a healthy life. Circadian rhythms are daily oscillations in human activities and physiology that prepare human beings to better react to and anticipate challenges in the surrounding environment, which are a consequence of diurnal changes of day and night. The sleep/wake cycle is one of the most prominent manifestations of the circadian rhythm and communicates tightly with the immune system with daily oscillation of immunity. Sleep deprivation is now recognized as a common condition inherent to modern society, and it is detrimental to certain body functions, particularly immune function. The aim of this review is to explore the role of sleep in maintaining a healthy immune system during the COVID-19 pandemic. The review discusses sleep-regulatory substances that are linked to host defense mechanisms such as interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and interferon gamma. Cytokine levels also fluctuate with sleep/wake homeostasis and our review explores the relationship between sleep and cytokines and proposed therapeutics. The review will also cover sleep and immune response in children, adolescents, and healthcare workers, and finally it will touch on the effect of obstructive sleep apnea on immune response and the severity of COVID-19.

    Abstract Aims CCTA is a well-established and safe imaging modality for the diagnosis of CAD and is gate keeping for invasive coronary angiography (ICA). We aimed to examine CCTA performance in patients presenting with ACP and dynamic hs-cTn elevation compatible with MI but not exceeding 7 folds of the URL. We also examined the performance of GRACE and PTP consortium scores in this population of patients.

    Abstract Vaccination provides the best protection against the increasing infections of SARS-CoV-2. The magnitude and type of anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine side effects (SEs) depend on parameters that are not fully understood. In this cross-sectional study, the associations between different anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccine SEs and age, sex, the presence of chronic diseases, medication intake, history of allergies, and infections with SARS-CoV-2 were investigated. Our survey used the Google platform and had 866 participants, contacted through e-mails, social media and chain referral sampling (margin of error ≈ 4.38%, 99% confidence). More than 99% of the participants received the BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1-S vaccines. Being female, having chronic diseases, taking medicines routinely and the presence of a SARS-CoV-2 infection (

    Abstract Objectives: This study aimed to review the blood stream infections of major burn patients in a tertiary care burn unit to determine the most prevalent infecting organisms in order to have a better empirical therapy protocol.
    Methods: This retrospective study analysed the blood stream infection of 155 major burn (>20% Total Body Surface Area [TBSA]) patients in Khoula Hospital, Muscat, Oman between January 2014 to December 2019.
    Results: The median age was 33 years and 57.42% of patients were male. The median TBSA was 38%, mortality was 25.16% and 50.9% of patients had positive blood cultures. The expired patients had higher TBSAs, Abbreviated Burns Severity Index scores and earlier first positive blood cultures.
    Conclusions: Multidrug-resistant
