Heterogeneity Landscape of Circulating Tumor Cells in Clinical Utility
Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.This study reports the heterogeneity spectrum of circulating tumor cells. The factors involved in the spectrum promote CTCs to overcome barriers in the metastatic cascade but impact the clinical outcome of cancer patients. In summary, the heterogeneities in association with CTCs ultimately reduce patient survival and facilitate increasing mortality of ...

When a pulmonary embolism is not a pulmonary embolism: a rare case of primary pulmonary leiomyosarcoma [PDF]
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2015 Arterial leiomyosarcomas account for up to 21% of vascular leiomyosarcomas, with 56% of arterial leiomyosarcomas occurring in the pulmonary artery. While isolated cases of primary pulmonary artery leiomyosarcoma document survival up to 36 months after ...

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2010 Primary heart tumors are rare, and malignant primary heart tumors are only a small subset of these. Most primary malignant tumors are sarcomas arising from the cells of the structural elements of the heart such as blood vessels, muscle, connective tissue, fat and even bone.

Pulmonary artery sarcoma [PDF]
Heart, 2003 A 38 year old man without any symptoms was referred to our hospital for examination of a heart murmur. There were signs of right ventricular overload on the ECG. Doppler echocardiographic measurements demonstrated a maximum pressure gradient of 105 mm Hg across the right ventricular outflow tract. …

Revealing Cell‐Free Mitochondrial DNA Breakage Patterns as Novel Biomarkers for Sepsis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Uncovering distinct plasma cfmtDNA breakage patterns opens new frontiers for early sepsis detection and prognosis. Unique cleavage hotspots in RNR2 and COX2 regions outperform traditional biomarkers, while mechanistic insights suggest bacterial endonuclease involvement.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals a novel mechanistic connection between cancer and ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)‐induced cardiac injury. The meta‐analysis demonstrates significantly higher incidence ratios of both all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in cancer patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared to non‐cancer patients.
