Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the genetic underpinnings of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) by using targeted gene panels (TGPs) to identify novel genetic variants in a group of 93 patients with different NET subtypes.
  • Out of the identified variants, some were already known to be linked to specific tumor types, while others were new associations that had not been previously recognized in the context of NETs.
  • The research highlights the potential of TGPs to uncover previously unknown genetic factors in NET development, suggesting the need for further studies with larger samples to confirm these findings.

Article Synopsis
  • Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is caused by a lack of enzyme activity that leads to the buildup of substances in the body's cells, leading to serious cardiovascular issues, especially hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
  • This report presents three new cases of obstructive HCM in patients with AFD, where the condition was only diagnosed after surgery through genetic and morphological tests.
  • The findings suggest that surgical myectomy can be safe and effective for AFD-related HOCM, highlighting the importance of better screening for AFD symptoms in HOCM patients.

Article Synopsis
  • This research introduces the first heterometallic octahedral cluster complexes made from both 5d (tungsten) and 3d (iron) metals.
  • The main focus is on a compound called (TBA)[FeWBr], which shows selective reactions at the iron site when different solvents are applied.
  • The study also reveals various anions related to {FeW}, characterizes them through X-ray diffraction, examines their redox properties, and contrasts the bonding between Fe and W with bonds in other metal clusters using theoretical calculations.

The spread of misinformation through media and social networks threatens many aspects of society, including public health and the state of democracies. One approach to mitigating the effect of misinformation focuses on individual-level interventions, equipping policymakers and the public with essential tools to curb the spread and influence of falsehoods. Here we introduce a toolbox of individual-level interventions for reducing harm from online misinformation.

N-Hexane is a solvent widely used in manufacturing as a cleaner, degreaser and component of rubber cement. Chronic exposure to -hexane either through contact with unprotected skin or inhalation can lead to the development of clinical symptoms and electrophysiological changes similar to those of inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy which requires careful differential diagnosis. This article presents three cases of severe predominantly motor polyneuropathy with demyelinating features in 15- and 16-year-old adolescents.
