Background: Lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations cause myocardial fibrosis manifesting as arrhythmogenic, non-compaction, or dilated cardiomyopathies. Fibro-fatty replacement largely involves the conduction system and conduction disease commonly occurs prior to contractile dysfunction.
Case Summary: Two young, unrelated Caucasian males, aged 34 and 25, were referred to our centre for treatment of advanced heart failure.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated copper, aluminum, and nickel-doped ZnS nanoparticles (NPs) for their antibacterial and anticancer properties, synthesizing them using a co-precipitation method and confirming their structure through various analyses.
- - Characterizations like XRD and SEM showed that doping reduced the crystallite size and resulted in slightly irregular and agglomerated morphologies, while EDX and FTIR analyses confirmed the presence and behavior of dopants within the ZnS NPs.
- - The antibacterial tests indicated significant inhibition against E.coli and B.cereus, with maximum inhibition zones of 9-23 mm and 12-27 mm, respectively, and also demonstrated notable anticancer effects against the HepG2 liver cancer
Spindle epithelial tumor with thymus-like elements (SETTLE) is a rare biphasic thyroid tumor with low malignant potential that has a distinct morphology. Despite fine needle aspiration (FNA) being a common method for evaluating thyroid nodules and lymph nodes, there are limited cytologic descriptions of SETTLE in the literature due to its rarity. As a result, SETTLE is frequently underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed as medullary carcinoma, thymoma, teratoma, synovial sarcoma, or solitary fibrous tumor, among others.

Summary: Our comprehensive review focuses on summarizing common pitfalls encountered in urine cytopathology, based on the 2nd edition of The Paris System (TPS) for reporting urinary tract cytopathology and other recent published literature.
A novel and efficient bionanocomposite was synthesized by incorporating SnO into chitosan (Ch) and a room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL). The bionanocomposite was synthesized in benzoyl pyridinium chloride [BzPy]Cl to maintain the unique properties of SnO, chitosan, and the ionic liquid. Adsorption and photodegradation processes were applied to evaluate the bionanocomposite for removing azo and anthraquinone dyes and textile wastewater.
