Diagnosis and Treatment of Primary Tracheobronchial Tumors

Cancer Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 9, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Primary tracheobronchial tumors (PTBTs) are rare but life‐threatening, accounting for approximately 0.2% of all respiratory neoplasms. Owing to their nonspecific clinical symptoms, PTBTs are often initially misdiagnosed as bronchial asthma or bronchitis in the early stages.

Etiology of pure tricuspid regurgitation based on anular circumference and leaflet area: Analysis of 45 necropsy patients with clinical and morphologic evidence of pure tricuspid regurgitation [PDF]

, 1986
Despite recent renewed interest in the detection of tricuspid valve regurgitation by echocardiographic and Doppler techniques, little morphologic information is available on dysfunctioning tricuspid valves. This report describes 45 necropsy patients with

Imaging in carcinoid heart disease [PDF]

Cardiologia Croatica, 2013
Carcinoid tumours are rare malignant tumours arising from the neural crest amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation cells, in particular from those situated in the gastrointestinal tract. These tumours are slow growing and indolent, but when they metastasise to the liver, their vasoactive products (5-hydroxytryptamine or serotonin, histamine ...

Management of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices in Patients With Severe Symptomatic Tricuspid Regurgitation—Proposed Algorithm and Selected Case Examples

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1395-1406, May 1, 2025.
ABSTRACT Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Management of severe TR includes treatment of the underlying cause(s), medical therapy and less commonly surgical tricuspid valve repair. Newer transcatheter tricuspid valve repair devices show promise for those patients who remain symptomatic with ...

Endoscopic findings and outcomes of gastric mucosal changes relating to potassium‐competitive acid blocker and proton pump inhibitor therapy

DEN Open, Volume 5, Issue 1, April 2025.
Abstract Gastric mucosal changes associated with long‐term potassium‐competitive acid blocker and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy may raise concern. In contrast to that for PPIs, the evidence concerning the safety of long‐term potassium‐competitive acid blocker use is scant.

Heart Disease Detection using Quantum Computing and Partitioned Random Forest Methods [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Heart disease morbidity and mortality rates are increasing, which has a negative impact on public health and the global economy. Early detection of heart disease reduces the incidence of heart mortality and morbidity. Recent research has utilized quantum computing methods to predict heart disease with more than 5 qubits and are computationally ...

Therapeutic targeting of TGF‐β in lung cancer

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 7, Page 1520-1557, April 2025.
Here, we discuss how lung cancer treatment can be transformed by targeting TGF‐β for better outcomes. Inhibiting TGF‐β signaling halts tumor growth, boosts immune response, and enhances treatment efficacy. By tackling TGF‐β's role in epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and immune evasion, this approach opens new avenues for more effective lung ...
