Genetic Profiling of Pediatric Patients with B-Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) is a heterogeneous leukemia subgroup. It has multiple sub-types that are likely to be classified by prognostic factors. Following a systematic literature review, this study analyzed the genes correlated with BCP-ALL prognosis ( and , specifically their nucleotide variations and expression profiles in pediatric BCP-ALL samples.

Diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound in subscapularis tendon abnormalities and the importance of operator experience.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the reasons behind the compliance, diagnostic success, and failure of ultrasound (US) examinations of two radiologists with reference to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the abnormalities of subscapularis (SSC) tendon, including tendinosis.

Methods: One less experienced radiologist (operator-1) and one senior radiologist, experienced in the musculoskeletal US (operator-2), performed the shoulder US on 78 patients (mean age: 53.18 ± 10.
