The traumatized patient with signs of shock remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality, requiring rapid diagnosis and multidisciplinary management. This study evaluates clinical, paraclinical, and therapeutic aspects of trauma patients admitted with shock signs in the red zone of the Emergency Department of the Institute of Emergency Medicine during 2024.

Injuries represent a major public health issue, causing approximately 16,000 deaths globally each day (10% of all deaths), which is 32% more than the combined total caused by malaria, tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS. Over the past 15 years, the WHO and regional initiatives have supported the piloting of trauma registries in low- and middle-income countries as essential tools for monitoring, planning, and prevention.
Research ethics and integrity are fundamental for safeguarding human participants and ensuring trustworthy scientific practices. Understanding researchers’ knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions regarding ethical standards is important for all health researchers, but particularly relevant for early-career researchers. While several international instruments exist to evaluate specific aspects of research ethics, such as plagiarism, organizational climate, or responsible conduct of research, a multidimensional and contextually relevant tool is required.
The focal disease is a pathological condition characterized by a wide variety of functional disorders and organic tissue alterations, due to chronic foci of infection, from which various microbes, microbial toxins, and toxic products of septic tissue disintegration originate. According to the percentage distribution, 90% of the foci of the body are located in the cephalic region, and 10% in the rest of the body [17]. Research has shown that on the list of foci of infection, those in the oral cavity are in first place, with 93% of active foci being caused by teeth and their pathologies. Important clinical criteria that mark this fundamental difference of the odonto-periodontal focal infection include the profile of local inflammation, the level of the tissue hypersensitivity process, the level of the microbial load in the focus and, no less importantly, the reactivity of the body.
The craniofacial orthodontist who is part of the multidisciplinary team evaluating children with cleft lip and palate plays an important role in examining the development of dental occlusion. Early surgical interventions in children with cleft lip and palate frequently cause occlusion disorders with a prevalence of anterior crossbite in 62%. The expansion of the maxilla is important for normalizing the morphology and correct symmetrical tooth eruption. The aim is to evaluate the evolution of maxillary expansion in patients with cleft lip and palate.
Surgery exposes professionals to significant physical and psychological risks, including intense exertion, prolonged static postures, and repetitive gestures, often leading to musculoskeletal pain. International studies report prevalence rates above 90%, linked to long procedures and poor ergonomics, alongside exposure to biological and chemical hazards, radiation, toxic smoke, and chronic stress. In the Republic of Moldova, occupational health in the medical sector is underexplored, with no tools tailored to surgeons. This study aims to develop and validate the first nationally standardized questionnaire to assess these risks and support public health policies.
The traumatized patient with signs of shock remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality, requiring rapid diagnosis and multidisciplinary management. This study evaluates clinical, paraclinical, and therapeutic aspects of trauma patients admitted with shock signs in the red zone of the Emergency Department of the Institute of Emergency Medicine during 2024.
DiGeorge syndrome, known also as 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, is a rare multisystemic disorder characterized by a wide range of clinical features and may include thymic aplasia and subsequent immunodeficiency, conotruncal cardiac anomalies, typical facial features, palatal abnormalities, and hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism.
Prolonged premature rupture of membranes predisposes to intrauterine infection and chorioamnionitis, both of which have significant implications for neonatal outcomes. While chorioamnionitis has been linked to accelerated surfactant production and reduced respiratory distress syndrome, it is also associated with long-term pulmonary injury, including bronchopulmonary dysplasia and pulmonary hypertension. The objective of the study is to investigate the association between prolonged premature rupture of membranes, chorioamnionitis, and respiratory outcomes among preterm infants ≤34 weeks of gestation.
The gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is the most common site of extranodal primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), accounting for 20% to 40% of all extranodal lymphomas. The advanced stages at diagnosis and complications remain significant issues in NHL management, imposing a substantial disease burden on patients and healthcare systems.
