Architectural distortion and basal plasmacytosis are the most widely recognized histologic features of chronic ileal inflammation. However, these features might be difficult to assess in small, poorly oriented, or superficial biopsies. Additional features of chronic mucosal damage, including pseudopyloric or pseudofoveolar metaplasia and Paneth cell hyperplasia, have been less commonly reported, and their broader appreciation could facilitate the diagnosis of chronic ileal inflammatory conditions.

While existing research has predominantly examined negative mental states and risk behavior, this longitudinal study takes a novel approach by investigating positive psychological wellbeing and its impact on sustained health behavior.
Method: The research involved participants ( = 502) with medium to high cardiovascular risk who underwent a comprehensive risk assessment in 2012, followed by written risk communication.
Article Synopsis
- Human pulmonary dirofilariasis (HPD) is a rare disease caused by the Dirofilaria immitis parasite, typically spread through mosquito bites, with dogs being the main hosts and most cases reported in Mediterranean countries.
- A study in Hungary documented 5 cases of HPD over 12 years, all involving middle-aged patients with tumor-like lung lesions requiring surgical intervention; histological tests confirmed the presence of remnants of the parasite.
- The study emphasizes the need for clinicians to be aware of HPD in diagnoses of lung lesions, as early detection is crucial for effective treatment and to avoid unnecessary surgeries.
The present paper studies the energy intensity of ammonia production by a freely oscillating microbubble placed in an infinite domain of liquid. The initial content of the bubble is a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen. The bubble is expanded isothermically to a maximum radius, then it is "released" and oscillates freely.
