Undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of the liver mimicking venolymphatic malformation.

Undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of the liver (UESL) is a primitive hepatic neoplasm that presents in a variety of forms on ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. In this case report, we present an UESL with fluid-fluid cysts mimicking a radiographic presentation commonly seen in venolymphatic malformation on magnetic resonance imaging. This is the first described case of UESL, with this radiographic presentation and outlines, the importance of considering this malignant lesion when evaluating liver tumors in children.

Wogonin attenuates the deleterious effects of traumatic brain injury in anesthetized Wistar rats.

Wogonin, a flavonoid (5,7-dihydroxy-8-methoxyflavone) with reported neuroprotective properties, is widely used in treating inflammatory diseases. The main goal of this study was to explore the role of wogonin in preventing deleterious cardiovascular effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Experiments were carried out in adult male urethane-anesthetized, artificially ventilated, Wistar rats, weighing 300-350 gm.
