Is “Benign” Urology Benign?

European Urology, 2022
Use of the word "benign" for all diseases that are not cancerous may suggest to patients that a life-threatening urologic condition is "innocuous" or even "harmless". We invite readers to propose alternative language that accurately describes the field of nononcologic adult urology, reflects the expertise of practitioners, and remains sensitive to the ...

How benign is benign overfitting?

CoRR, 2020
We investigate two causes for adversarial vulnerability in deep neural networks: bad data and (poorly) trained models. When trained with SGD, deep neural networks essentially achieve zero training error, even in the presence of label noise, while also exhibiting good generalization on natural test data, something referred to as benign overfitting [2 ...

Benign paroxysmal torticollis, benign paroxysmal vertigo, and benign tonic upward gaze are not benign disorders [PDF]

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2018
AimBenign paroxysmal torticollis (BPT), benign paroxysmal vertigo (BPV), and benign tonic upward gaze (BTU) are characterized by transient and recurrent episodes of neurological manifestations. The purpose of this study was to analyse the clinical relationships between these syndromes, associated comorbidities, and genetic bases.MethodIn this cross ...

Developmental Venous Anomaly: Benign or Not Benign

Neurologia medico-chirurgica, 2016
Developmental venous anomalies (DVAs), previously called venous angiomas, are the most frequently encountered cerebral vascular malformations. However, DVA is considered to be rather an extreme developmental anatomical variation of medullary veins than true malformation. DVAs are composed of dilated medullary veins converging centripetally into a large

Is Esophagectomy for Benign Conditions Benign? [PDF]

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2018
Outcomes data on esophagectomy performed for benign conditions is scarce. Using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, we sought to analyze outcomes of esophagectomy performed for benign conditions.The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for all esophagectomies performed from 2005 to 2015.

High bleeding rates in δ-storage pool disease during surgeries and deliveries

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis
Background: δ-storage pool disease (δ-SPD) involves various platelet disorders due to deficient or reduced secretion of dense granules, causing increased bleeding tendency, particularly during surgery and delivery.

Platelets induce VISTA expression and modulate the ovarian tumor microenvironment

Platelets
Immune checkpoint regulators, such as the V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA), play a critical role in shaping the tumor microenvironment (TME) and facilitating immune evasion.

No correlation between thrombin generation and emicizumab levels: implications for monitoring emicizumab therapy

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis
Background: Emicizumab, a bispecific antibody that mimics factor (F)VIII, has significantly improved hemophilia A management. Although emicizumab levels can be measured, tools for estimating the hemostatic efficacy of emicizumab are lacking.
