A 90-year-old man was admitted for progressive dyspnea. His medical history included hypertension and chronic myeloid leukemia diagnosed 10 years before and treated with dasatinib. Physical examination revealed pitting edema of the legs and dullness to percussion in the right chest. Laboratory test results were clinically relevant for white blood cells

Pleural fluid investigations for pleural infections
Over 1.5 million patients are admitted to hospital with pneumonia in the United States each year. Up to 50% of them can develop a parapneumonic effusion which is associated with higher mortality. The incidence of pleural infection continues to rise, particularly in the elderly and those with comorbidities.

Use of a hybrid intelligence decision tree to identify mature B‐cell neoplasms
Abstract Background Mature B‐cell neoplasms are challenging to diagnose due to their heterogeneity and overlapping clinical and biological features. In this study, we present a new workflow strategy that leverages a large amount of flow cytometry data and an artificial intelligence approach to classify these neoplasms. Methods By combining mathematical
