Article Synopsis
- αSMA is expressed not only in cancer-associated fibroblasts but also in certain breast cancer cells, which relates to their invasive capabilities and raises questions about its role in breast cancer pathology.
- The study aimed to analyze the αSMA tumor score in breast cancer using digital image analysis, focusing on its effects on clinical outcomes like invasiveness and survival rates.
- Results identified three distinct breast cancer subgroups based on αSMA expression, revealing connections between αSMA scores and clinicopathological factors such as recurrence and invasion, highlighting the need for further research in this area.
Article Synopsis
- Chest pain is a common reason for emergency room visits, and this case discusses a 48-year-old woman who initially refused hospital admission despite presenting with typical chest pain suggesting a coronary issue.
- During further evaluation with a CT coronary angiography, an esophageal tumor (leiomyoma) was accidentally discovered, which was surgically treated, leading to the patient becoming asymptomatic.
- One year later, she complained of similar chest pain again; while it was initially thought to be related to the previous tumor, tests confirmed it was due to coronary issues this time, yet she still opted to avoid hospital admission for further procedures.
The efficacy and safety of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) versus open thoracotomy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were evaluated with a focus on mediastinal lymph node dissection, postoperative recovery, and longterm outcomes including survival rates and disease-free intervals. This retrospective study analyzed data from 228 NSCLC patients treated at the Institute of Oncology Bucharest from 2016 to 2022. Both VATS and open surgical approaches were compared, with variables including demographic data, comorbidities, surgical outcomes, and postoperative complications meticulously recorded.

Article Synopsis
- * It found that GSV diameter increases with the complexity of anatomical features, which can include multiple tributaries or other abnormalities, correlating significantly with chronic venous disease (CVD) stages.
- * The research underscores the need to recognize these variations for better surgical outcomes, supporting personalized treatment strategies for patients with venous reflux related to CVD.
