Prenatal Diagnosis of Horseshoe Lung: A Report of Three Cases and Review of the Literature
ABSTRACT Objective Horseshoe lung is a rare congenital malformation in which the lungs are fused by a parenchymal isthmus. The current literature is very limited regarding cases of prenatal diagnosis and their outcome. Method We retrospectively examined three cases of fetuses with horseshoe lung diagnosed antenatally in our center from 2015 to 2024 ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

AI-Driven Predictive Analytics Approach for Early Prognosis of Chronic Kidney Disease Using Ensemble Learning and Explainable AI [PDF]
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is one of the widespread Chronic diseases with no known ultimo cure and high morbidity. Research demonstrates that progressive Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a heterogeneous disorder that significantly impacts kidney structure and functions, eventually leading to kidney failure. With the progression of time, chronic kidney

Large Kidney Cysts in Nephropathy Mimicking Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
Rationale: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 beta ( HNF1B ) nephropathy is a rare autosomal dominant monogenic kidney disease. We present a case mimicking autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), highlighting the phenotypic heterogeneity of HNF1B -

Comparing Online Community Structure of Patients of Chronic Diseases [PDF]
In this paper we compare the social network structure of people talking about Crohn's disease, Cystic Fibrosis, and Type 1 diabetes on Facebook and Twitter. We find that the Crohn's community's contributors are most emotional on Facebook and Twitter and most negative on Twitter, while the T1D community's communication network structure is most cohesive.

Unveiling the Impact of Social and Environmental Determinants of Health on Lung Function Decline in Cystic Fibrosis through Data Integration using the US Registry [PDF]
Integrating diverse data sources offers a comprehensive view of patient health and holds potential for improving clinical decision-making. In Cystic Fibrosis (CF), which is a genetic disorder primarily affecting the lungs, biomarkers that track lung function decline such as FEV1 serve as important predictors for assessing disease progression.
