Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma‐Risk Factors, Diagnosis, Treatment, and Prevention

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) usually originates from the precancerous lesions of oral mucosa and accounts for approximately 90% of oral cancers. In‐depth understanding of pathogenesis, hallmarks, and etiological factors is a crucial prerequisite for advancing the diagnosis and treatment for OSCC patients. This review aims to present the

Hepatopulmonary syndrome as presentation of pediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Childhood obesity is rising and leading to serious co‐morbidities, among which is metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) predisposing individuals to cirrhosis. We describe a young 11‐year‐old Hispanic male who presented with hepatopulmonary syndrome secondary to cirrhotic portal hypertension from metabolic dysfunction‐
