Articles in Focus
Tennis Courts in the Human Body: A Review of the Misleading Metaphor in Medical Literature
Large surfaces in the human body are widely (and erroneously) likened to a tennis court in medical literature. This article deconstructs the discrepancies in this metaphor and provides an introduction to fractal geometry.

Medical Diagnosis Reimagined as a Process of Bayesian Reasoning and Elimination
A mathematical perspective using Bayes reasoning of the age-old practice of diagnosing a patient with an example of Kartagener syndrome.

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte, Lymphocyte-to- Monocyte, and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratios: Prognostic Significance in COVID-19
A cross-sectional study aimed at examining the prognostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte, lymphocyte-to-monocyte, platelet-to-lymphocyte, and mean platelet volume (MPV)-to-platelet count ratios in patients with COVID-19.
A Needle in the Fetal Brain: The Rare Role of Transabdominal Cephalocentesis in Fetal Hydrocephalus
A case report of a primigravida with term fetal hydrocephalus who underwent ultrasound-guided transabdominal cephalocentesis and subsequently delivered vaginally without any adverse perinatal outcomes.


How Does Aspartate Aminotransferase-to-Platelet Ratio Index (APRI) Hold Up in Predicting Adverse Outcomes and Prognosis among Patients with Chronic Liver Disease Compared to Other Liver Scoring Systems?
A comparative analysis of aspartate aminotransferase: platelet ratio index(APRI) with Child-Pugh-Turcotte(CTP) score, the model for end-stage liver disease(MELD) and MELD–sodium(Na), to forecast the clinical course of patients with chronic liver disease.

Liver: Function and dysfunction in COVID-19
A cross-sectional study in a tertiary healthcare setting in the initial months of the pandemic to describe the clinical characteristics in patients of COVID-19 and investigate the gender difference with particular regard to liver impairment.
Relationship of Night time Blood Pressure with Urine Microalbumin Creatinine Ratio in Non-CKD Patients
