Elevated gamma glutamyl transferase levels are associated with the location of acute pulmonary embolism. Cross-sectional evaluation in hospital setting [PDF]

, 2015
CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: The location of embolism is associated with clinical findings and disease severity in cases of acute pulmonary embolism. The level of gamma-glutamyl transferase increases under oxidative stress-related conditions.

Deep learning and traditional-based CAD schemes for the pulmonary embolism diagnosis: A survey [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Nowadays, pulmonary Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is the main tool for detecting Pulmonary Embolism (PE). However, manual interpretation of CTA volume requires a radiologist, which is time-consuming and error-prone due to the specific conditions of lung tissue, large volume of data, lack of experience, and eye fatigue. Therefore, Computer-Aided

Perioperative outcomes of esophagectomy after doublet versus docetaxel‐based triplet neoadjuvant chemotherapy in older patients: A nationwide inpatient database study in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this nationwide inpatient database study of 5229 patients aged 70–79 years who underwent esophagectomy for cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, overlap propensity score weighting analysis showed that neoadjuvant docetaxel‐based triplet regimen (docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5‐fluorouracil) was not associated with a higher incidence of perioperative ...

Is microglial dystrophy a form of cellular senescence? An analysis of senescence markers in the aged human brain

Glia, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 377-390, February 2023., 2023
Main Points Aging‐related morphological changes in microglia (dystrophy) do not correlate with expression of universal senescence markers. Microglial dystrophy coincides with an aging‐related increase in microglial ferritin expression. Abstract Aging can cause morphological transformation in human microglia indicative of cell senescence, termed ...

Pulmonary Embolism in Children [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2017
Pulmonary embolism (PE) in the pediatric population is relatively rare when compared to adults; however, the incidence is increasing and accurate and timely diagnosis is critical. A high clinical index of suspicion is warranted as PE often goes unrecognized among children leading to misdiagnosis and potentially increased morbidity and mortality ...

Prenatal Diagnosis of Proteus Syndrome: About a Case

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proteus syndrome (PS) is a rare disorder (< 1/1000000), marked by progressive overgrowth commonly impacting the skeleton, skin, adipose tissue, and central nervous system. Clinical criteria were established in 2019. PS arises from a somatic activating variation in the AKT1 gene.
