Medically responsive amyloidogenic giant sellar-parasellar prolactinoma.

Background: Giant prolactinomas are rare; among them, the amyloidogenic variant, prolactinomas with extensive spherical amyloid deposits, are rare, with only 30 cases reported with recommendations of surgical management contrary to the routine prolactinoma's medical management.

Case Description: We report here a case of giant amyloidogenic prolactinoma in a 32-year-old male patient who had a very atypical presentation in terms of clinical, radiological, and pathological features and responded to dopamine agonist therapy like a normal prolactinoma.

Conclusion: Amyloidogenic giant prolactinomas are rare.

An Interesting Case of Balloon-Assisted Deployment of a Dislodged Coronary Stent.

We report a first and interesting case of balloon-assisted deployment of a dislodged coronary stent. While performing a calcified left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) intervention, the drug-eluting coronary stent was dislodged in the osteoproximal segment of the calcified and tortuous LCX. The dislodged stent was rewired, progressively dilated with multiple balloons and, finally, a larger, balloon-mounted stent was pushed forward, positioned across the coronary lesion and deployed, resulting in distal thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) III flow with good angiographic results.

Recognition and Management Considerations of Cardiac Channelopathies in the Intensive Care Unit.

The understanding and prevalence of cardiac channelopathies has grown over time. Many patients are asymptomatic but are at risk for malignant arrhythmias during high-acuity medical admissions. Long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia are discussed with specific consideration given for the role these medical conditions play during an intensive care unit admission-for either cardiac or noncardiac reasons.

The Effect of Annealing Ambience on the Material and Photodetector Characteristics of Sputtered ZnGaO Films.

Spinel ZnGaO films were grown on c-plane sapphire substrates at the substrate temperature of 400 °C by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. Post thermal annealing was employed at the annealing temperature of 700 °C in order to enhance their crystal quality. The effect of thermal annealing on the microstructural and optoelectronic properties of ZnGaO films was systematically investigated in various ambiences, such as air, nitrogen, and oxygen.

Interscapular pain with Chiari Type I malformation attributed to atypical spinal accessory neuralgia.

Background: The spinal accessory nerve (XI) is traditionally considered a motor nerve. However, as some studies have documented the presence of nociceptive fibers in XI, vascular XI neural compression may lead to an atypical neuralgia.

Case Description: A 27-year-old male presented with a Chiari Type I malformation contributing to interscapular pain.

Zinc Gallium Oxide-A Review from Synthesis to Applications.

Spinel ZnGaO has received significant attention from researchers due to its wide bandgap and high chemical and thermal stability; hence, paving the way for it to have potential in various applications. This review focuses on its physical, optical, mechanical and electrical properties, contributing to the better understanding of this material. The recent trends for growth techniques and processing in the research and development of ZnGaO from bulk crystal growth to thin films are discussed in detail for device performance.

Effect of altered ambient temperature through shelter modifications on physiological indicators of Malpura lambs reared in semi-arid region during winter.

Microclimatic factors are of crucial aspect for the welfare of animals. Therefore, a study was conducted to assess the effect of altered ambient temperature through shelter modifications on physiological indicators of Malpura lambs reared in the semi-arid region during winter. Twenty-one Malpura lambs of 3-5 week age and average body weight 9.

Effect of protection against hot climate on growth performance, physiological response and endocrine profile of growing lambs under semi-arid tropical environment.

In the hot semi-arid tropical region, extreme summer is a major constraint in sheep production. The growth performance of growing lambs is impaired during the summer. Therefore, the present study was conducted to assess the effect of protection against hot climate on growth performance, physiological response, and endocrine profile of growing lambs under semi-arid tropical environment.
