Avascular necrosis: A rare complication of steroid therapy for pemphigus
Indian Journal of Dermatology, 2008 A patient of pemphigus vulgaris presented with avascular necrosis of the femur after long-term high-dose corticosteroid therapy. Corticosteroids used on a long-term basis can cause avascular necrosis of bone and this has been seen in various diseases ...

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Time‐ and dose‐related pathological changes of knee osteoarthritis rat model induced by monosodium iodoacetate. Abstract Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic degenerative disease. Monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) induction is the most commonly used therapeutic effect evaluation and mechanism of action research model; we observed a lack of standardization

Multiparametric Ultrasound for Preoperative Assessment of Parotid Tumors: A Novel Diagnostic Pathway
Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Accurate preoperative differentiation of parotid gland tumors (PGTs) is essential for facial nerve preservation. This study evaluates a novel, real‐time multiparametric ultrasound (mpUS) approach combining B‐mode, shear wave elastography (SWE), and contrast‐enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), based on qualitative image interpretation ...

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Corticosteroids are effective anti‐cancer agents for treating hematologic malignancies in children. However, avascular necrosis (AVN) is a common and debilitating adverse effect, leading to bone death and impacting long‐term quality of life. This study aimed to uncover the genetic factors contributing to corticosteroid‐induced AVN in a well ...

Multicellular Tumor Spheroid in an off-lattice Voronoi/Delaunay cell model
, 2005 We study multicellular tumor spheroids by introducing a new three-dimensional agent-based Voronoi/Delaunay hybrid model. In this model, the cell shape varies from spherical in thin solution to convex polyhedral in dense tissues. The next neighbors of the
