Safety and Effectiveness of Drug-Eluting Embolic Bronchial Arterial Chemoembolization for Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Purpose: To assess the effectiveness and safety of drug-eluting embolic (DEE) bronchial arterial chemoembolization (BACE) in lung cancer and compare its outcomes with those of conventional BACE (cBACE).

Materials And Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted across PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang databases. Random-effects model analysis was applied when I was ≥50%; otherwise, fixed-effects model analysis was used.

Molecular characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 isolates from pigeon meat farms in Shanghai (2009-2012).

The majority of pigeon paramyxovirus type 1 (PPMV-1) strains are generally non-pathogenic to chickens; however, they can induce severe illness and high mortality rates in pigeons, leading to substantial economic repercussions. The genomes of 11 PPMV-1 isolates from deceased pigeons on meat pigeon farms during passive monitoring from 2009 to 2012 were sequenced and analyzed using polymerase chain reaction and phylogenetic analysis. The complete genome lengths of 11 isolates were approximately 15,192 nucleotides, displaying a consistent gene order of 3'-NP-P-M-F-HN-L-5'.

A successful endovascular intervention for massive hemorrhage due to a ruptured gastric artery aneurysm in a patient with microscopic polyangiitis: A case report.

The formation of left gastric artery aneurysms (LGAAs) is a very rare complication of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA). Hemorrhage due to ruptured LGAAs is life threatening. In this case report, an 81-year-old female patient diagnosed with MPA developed massive bleeding from a ruptured LGAA and hemorrhagic shock during hospitalization.

Multiple sites of soft-tissue metastases secondary to lung cancer: A case report.

Rationale: The prognosis of lung cancer is dismal, which has resulted in lung carcinoma being one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Non-small cell lung cancer accounts for approximately 80% of all types of lung carcinoma. The skeletal system and central nervous system are the most common distal metastatic sites in patients with lung cancer, while cutaneous and soft tissues metastasis is rare.
