Different pathways to lung cancer diagnosis in a real-life setting.

Background: Most lung cancers are diagnosed at an advanced stage and therefore have a poor prognosis. One major challenge is to choose the most adapted sampling technique to obtain a rapid pathological diagnosis so as to start treatment as early as possible. A growing number of techniques have been developed in recent years.

Long-term outcomes of CPAP-treated sleep apnea patients: Impact of blood-pressure responses after CPAP initiation and of treatment adherence.

Background And Objective: In randomized controlled trials, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is reported as lowering blood pressure (BP) with a mean systolic blood pressure effect size of 2.5 mmHg. These trials have a median follow-up of less than 6 months.

RBM10-TFE3 fusions: A FISH-concealed anomaly in adult renal cell carcinomas displaying a variety of morphological and genomic features: Comprehensive study of six novel cases.

The accurate diagnosis of Xp11-translocation renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in adults is challenging. TFE3 (located on chromosome X) fuses with a partner gene generally located on another chromosome. In rare cases TFE3 may fuse with a neighboring gene: RBM10.
