Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Role of chest ultrasonography in the diagnosis and follow-up of community-acquired pneumonia at Zagazig University Hospitals

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology, 2017
Background Pneumonia is one of the most common diseases with a high hospitalization rate and is potentially life threatening. Chest ultrasound (US) is increasingly being used as a valuable bedside tool in the diagnosis of various thoracic conditions ...

Ultrasound of the paediatric chest [PDF]

Pediatric Radiology, 2011
US is increasingly used to study the lung parenchyma, pleural cavity, mediastinum and chest wall, both prenatally and postnatally. Foetal lungs are routinely inspected in the standard cardiac four-chamber view. Owing to their fluid content, the foetal lungs are seen as homogeneous structures of medium echogenicity; the echogenicity increases slightly ...

Preoperative circulating tumor cells integrated with imaging analysis for prognostic evaluation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2023
Background Bronchiectasis is a persistent dilatation of the proximal and medium-sized bronchi greater than 2 mm in diameter caused by weakening or fibrosis of the bronchial walls’ muscular and elastic components.

Neurovascular Contacts in the Pathophysiology of Neuralgic Amyotrophy: An Observational Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a prevalent, monophasic, multifocal immune‐mediated neuropathy. A distinctive characteristic of the disease is the occurrence of nerve or fascicle constrictions and torsions (NA‐associated focal nerve lesions, NAFL). The pathophysiology underlying this phenomenon remains to be fully elucidated.

Long‐Term Efficacy of Immunotherapy in Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy—A 10‐Year Follow Up Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy (AAG) is a rare but potentially treatable cause of severe autonomic failure. Evidence guiding long‐term immunotherapy, treatment sequencing, and residual autonomic impairment is limited. We evaluated long‐term treatment response, residual autonomic dysfunction, and relapse patterns in patients with
