Encapsulation, Shelf Life, and Virulence of sp. Against .

is a genus of entomophthoralean fungi often associated with insect epizootics, particularly in phytophagous hemipterans. Encapsulation has become a promising strategy for improving the shelf life and sporulation of these fungi post-application. This study aims to (i) compare the virulence of the submerged propagules and primary conidia of sp.

Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography Is Feasible and Reliable for Proximal Coronary Segment Interpretation in Patients with Elevated Body Mass Index.

Computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) is under-utilised in detecting coronary artery disease (CAD) in obese patients due to concerns about non-evaluable testing. We hypothesise that these concerns are predominantly related to smaller and branch coronary vessels, and CTCA remains adequate for proximal segment stenosis interpretation, which has significant clinical implications. This retrospective cohort study, on consecutive patients referred for CTCA for suspected CAD, grouped patients by body mass index.

Image-Guided Musculoskeletal Interventional Radiology in the Personalised Management of Musculoskeletal Tumours.

Musculoskeletal image-guided interventional radiology plays a key role in diagnosing and treating a range of conditions. Recent advances have yielded a wide variety of procedures that can be applied selectively and enable the personalisation of patient care. This review aims to outline the indications, applications, and techniques of subspecialist musculoskeletal oncology interventional procedures that were used at our tertiary referral centre with a focus on how these may be used to personalise patient management.

Case report: hibernoma, a rare male breast mass.

Hibernomas are rare, benign neoplasms characterized by the presence of brown adipose tissue. Although these tumors may arise in any region of brown fat, they predominantly occur in the thigh, shoulder, back, and neck. Hibernomas are rarely found in mammary tissue, with a higher prevalence in females than males.

Clinical features and management of eyes with acute retinal necrosis presenting with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.

Purpose: To study clinical features, anatomical and visual outcomes in eyes having rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) as the presenting feature of acute retinal necrosis (ARN).

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with ARN (active/healed) and concomitant RD at the presenting visit.

Results: The median age of patients was 36 years, with a male preponderance (9:1).
