Pneumothorax revealing late recurrence of infantile myofibromatosis.

Adult recurrence of infantile myofibromatosis is exceptional. Here, we report the case of a 23-year-old woman with a late recurrence of infantile myofibromatosis revealed by spontaneous pneumothorax. The chest computed tomography scan found both cavitary and nodular bilateral pulmonary lesions.

Assessment of the current and emerging criteria for the histopathological classification of lung neuroendocrine tumours in the lungNENomics project.

Background: Six thoracic pathologists reviewed 259 lung neuroendocrine tumours (LNETs) from the lungNENomics project, with 171 of them having associated survival data. This cohort presents a unique opportunity to assess the strengths and limitations of current World Health Organization (WHO) classification criteria and to evaluate the utility of emerging markers.

Patients And Methods: Patients were diagnosed based on the 2021 WHO criteria, with atypical carcinoids (ACs) defined by the presence of focal necrosis and/or 2-10 mitoses per 2 mm.

Measurement of the Immunosuppressant Possession Ratio by Transplant Clinical Pharmacists Captures a Non-Adherence Associated With Antibody-Mediated Rejection.

Our objective was to calculate an immunosuppressant possession ratio (IPR) to diagnose non-adherence at the time of antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). IPR was defined as the ratio of number of pills collected at the pharmacy to the number of pills prescribed over a defined period. In a first cohort of 91 kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), those with an IPR < 90% had more frequently a tacrolimus through level coefficient of variation >30% than patients with an IPR = 100% (66.

Usefulness of an RNA extraction-free test for the multiplexed detection of , , and Gene Fusions in Real Life FFPE Specimens of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancers.

Background: , and rearrangements occur, respectively, in 5%, 2%, and 1% non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). ALK and ROS1 fusion proteins detection by immunohistochemistry (IHC) has been validated for rapid patient screening, but fusions need to be confirmed by another technique and no RET IHC test is available for clinical use.

Research Design And Methods: We report herein the usefulness of the HTG EdgeSeq Assay, an RNA extraction-free test combining a quantitative nuclease protection assay with NGS, for the detection of , and fusions from 'real-life' small NSCLC samples.

MicroRNAs miR-16 and miR-519 control meningioma cell proliferation overlapping transcriptomic programs shared with the RNA-binding protein HuR.

Introduction: Meningiomas are the most common type of primary central nervous system tumors. In about 80% cases, these tumors are benign and grow very slowly, but the remainder 20% can unlock higher proliferation rates and become malignant. In this study we examined two miRs, miR-16 and miR-519, and evaluated their role in tumorigenesis and cell growth in human meningioma.
