Is It a Pheochromocytoma? [PDF]

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2007
The patient is a 44‐year‐old man with a 4‐year history of intermittently elevated blood pressure (BP) controlled by diet and exercise. Three months before evaluation he described daily “spikes” of BP with sharp unilateral headaches. He was seen in the emergency department with a BP of 212/106 mm Hg and was started on hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily ...

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

T1WI‐SWI Dual Modal Magnetic Resonance Nanoprobes for Accurate Diagnosis of Early Stage Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed a smart MRI nanoprobe targeting BACE1 and Aβ plaques. It crosses the blood‐brain barrier. Upon encountering BACE1, the probe is cleaved, enabling T1WI imaging detection. Subsequent reaction with ONOO− induces probe aggregation, enhancing magnetic susceptibility for sensitive SWI imaging of Aβ plaques.

‘Adrenal rush’ in a patient with Neurofibromatosis-1

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2020
Neurofibromatosis-1 (NF-1) is a genetic neuro-cutaneous disorder that is associated with an increased prevalence of pheochromocytoma (PHEO). However, this association may not be commonly anticipated by physicians, as patients may be normotensive.
