Mesenteric thrombosis: An unusual complication of severe acute pancreatitis—Report of two cases

Advances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract The incidence of acute pancreatitis is 34 per 100 000 people in the general population and is on the rise. Approximately 15% to 20% of all patients experience severe pancreatitis, with a mortality rate nearing 20%.

Vascular co‐option and vasculogenic mimicry mediate resistance to antiangiogenic strategies

Cancer Reports, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The concept that all the tumors need the formation of new vessels to grow inspired the hypothesis that inhibition of angiogenesis would have led to “cure” cancer. The expectancy that this type of therapy would have avoided the insurgence of resistance was based on the concept that targeting normal vessels, instead of the cancer ...

Children With 22.Q.11.2 Deletion Syndrome: Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Management

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) are predisposed to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to an abnormal craniofacial anatomy with pharyngeal hypotonia, retrognathia, micrognathia, and glossoptosis. The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and management of OSA in a cohort of children with 22q11DS.
