Abstract

Keratinous cysts, predominantly referred to as epidermoid cysts (ECs) or epidermal inclusion cysts (EICs), represent the most prevalent subtype of cutaneous cysts. These benign, slow-growing lesions are defined by a pathological cavity situated within the dermis or subcutis, lined by stratified squamous epithelium and filled with macerated keratin and lipid-rich debris. While often asymptomatic, their clinical significance arises from a high frequency of complications, including inflammation, infection, and rupture, which prompt medical consultation. Furthermore, their presentation can mimic a wide range of other soft tissue tumors, necessitating accurate diagnosis. This paper provides a exhaustive, systematic review of keratinous cysts, delving into their historical context, precise nomenclature, and epidemiological patterns. It elaborates on the multifactorial etiologies and molecular pathways underpinning their pathogenesis. The clinical and histopathological features are described in detail, alongside advanced diagnostic imaging characteristics. A critical analysis of the differential diagnosis is presented, followed by a comprehensive discussion on management strategies, from conservative approaches to sophisticated surgical techniques aimed at minimizing recurrence and optimizing cosmetic outcomes. The paper also explores rare associations and future research directions, consolidating current evidence to serve as a definitive reference for dermatologists, surgeons, and primary care physicians. condition. Highlights: 1. Keratinous cysts, including epidermoid and epidermal inclusion cysts, are the most common cutaneous cysts with significant clinical impact when complicated. 2. Accurate diagnosis requires distinguishing them from other cystic and tumor-like lesions using clinical, histological, and imaging features. 3. Management ranges from observation and intralesional corticosteroids to complete surgical excision, with prognosis generally excellent after definitive treatment.

Abstract

Childhood anemia is a major global health issue, impairing growth, cognitive development, and immune function. Its prevalence is particularly concerning in post-conflict regions where healthcare infrastructure, nutrition, and sanitation are compromised. In Mosul, Iraq, years of conflict and displacement have heightened children’s vulnerability to nutritional deficiencies and infections, yet localized epidemiological data remain scarce. Limited evidence exists on the combined biological and community health determinants of anemia in Iraqi primary school children, restricting effective intervention planning. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of anemia among school-aged children in Mosul and identify its key biological and socio-environmental determinants. Results: A cross-sectional study of 850 children aged 6–12 years revealed an overall anemia prevalence of 42.5%, with mild anemia as the most common form (65.1%). Logistic regression analysis identified low maternal education (OR = 2.34, p < 0.001), low household income (OR = 2.16, p < 0.001), infrequent red meat intake (<2 times/week, OR = 2.80, p < 0.001), stunting (OR = 3.50, p < 0.001), and a history of parasitic infection (OR = 2.10, p = 0.003) as significant predictors. This is among the first large-scale studies in Mosul to integrate both biological and community-level determinants of anemia, reflecting the multifactorial nature of the condition in post-conflict settings. The findings underscore the urgent need for multisectoral interventions, including nutritional supplementation, deworming, health education, and sanitation improvements, to combat childhood anemia and improve long-term child health outcomes in Mosul. Highlights: Childhood anemia prevalence in Mosul primary schools was 42.5%, classifying it as a severe public health problem. Key determinants included low maternal education, low household income, infrequent red meat consumption, stunting, and parasitic infections. Findings highlight the urgent need for multisectoral interventions combining nutrition, deworming, education, and sanitation improvements.

Abstract

General Background: Medical records are a critical component of hospital administration, ensuring accuracy, completeness, reliability, validity, and timeliness for quality healthcare services. Specific Background: However, delays in returning medical record files remain a challenge in inpatient care, disrupting service standards and continuity of care. Knowledge Gap: Limited research has systematically analyzed delay factors using a structured framework in the Indonesian hospital setting. Aim: This study aims to analyze the factors contributing to delays in returning medical record files at Wahidin Sudiro Husodo Hospital using the 5M framework (man, method, machine, material, money). Results: Findings revealed human factors such as high school-level education, limited knowledge, and lack of training; methodological issues where standard operating procedures for inpatient care were not aligned with the 2x24 hours service standard; material shortcomings due to the absence of a tracer; machine factors showing only the use of an expedition book; and financial factors with no incentive or sanction mechanisms. Novelty: This research provides a comprehensive factor-based analysis of medical record return delays by integrating the 5M approach. Implications: The results highlight the need for policy improvements, targeted training, and structured monitoring to achieve timely and reliable medical record management.Highlights: Delays linked to human, procedural, and infrastructural gaps Application of the 5M framework in hospital record analysis Emphasis on policy reform and staff training for improvement Keywords: Delays, Inpatient, Medical Record, Hospital Administration, 5M Framework

Abstract

General Background: Carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) formation occurs when carbon monoxide (CO) binds with hemoglobin, showing an affinity 200–300 times stronger than oxygen, which disrupts oxygen transport and utilization in the body. Specific Background: In urban environments, CO exposure may be influenced by lifestyle factors such as daily travel distance and smoking habits, both of which are suspected contributors to elevated COHb levels. Knowledge Gap: Despite known toxicological effects of CO, limited research addresses how these lifestyle factors correlate with COHb levels in young adults, particularly male health students. Aim: This study investigated the association between distance traveled and smoking habits with COHb levels among male students of the Faculty of Health Sciences, Muhammadiyah University of Sidoarjo. Results: Findings showed that all respondents (100%) had COHb levels below the standard threshold (<3.5%) set by the Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation No. 70 of 2016, and statistical analysis indicated no significant association between either variable and COHb levels (p>0.05). Novelty: This research highlights that common risk factors like smoking and travel distance may not always predict elevated COHb in health student populations. Implications: The results provide reassurance regarding current exposure levels and may guide preventive health education for student populations. Highlights: All respondents had COHb levels below the national threshold. No significant association was found between smoking or travel distance and COHb. Provides baseline data for health education and preventive strategies. Keywords: Carboxyhemoglobin; Carbon Monoxide; Smoking; Travel Distance; Toxicology
