Background: Flat epithelial atypia (FEA), a rare breast proliferative lesion, is often diagnosed following core biopsy (CB) of mammographic microcalcifications. In the prospective multi-institution TBCRC 034 trial, we investigate the upgrade rate to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or invasive cancer following excision for patients diagnosed with FEA on CB.
Patients And Methods: Patients with a breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) ≤ 4 imaging abnormality and a concordant CB diagnosis of FEA were identified for excision.
The emerging role of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of cutaneous infections.

Introduction: Cutaneous infections pose ongoing challenges to standard treatments due to resistance and limited efficacy. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) emerges as a promising supplement or an alternative to address complicated cases. In this review, we comprehensively review PDT's safety and efficacy in treating cutaneous infections.

Vehicle geometries (seat length, seat pan height, shoulder belt outlet height, and roof height) were obtained for 275 center and outboard rear seating positions of US vehicles (MY 2009-2022). Measurements of 85 US boosters (pan height and pan length) and anthropometries of 80 US children between 4-14yo (seated height, thigh length, leg length, and seated shoulder height) were also collected.

The seatback structure and properties of the seats might contribute to these fractures. This study aimed to determine if a homogeneous rear-facing seat with foam-covered seatback would mitigate the risk of thoracic injury during an HSRFFI.

- A study was conducted on ceramic-on-metal hip replacements originally performed from 2007 to 2009 to assess their long-term outcomes after 5.8 and 10.1 years.
- The revision rates increased from 3.1% at six years to 8.8% at ten years, with a notable rise in pain scores and decline in overall hip function during that time.
- The findings revealed significant issues like increased radiolucent lines in X-rays and higher metal ion levels, indicating that the survival rate for these implants dropped to 91.2%, below the recommended threshold, raising concerns for future implant designs.
