Evaluating Cellularity Estimation Methods: Comparing AI Counting with Pathologists' Visual Estimates.

The development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has enabled the discovery of cancer-specific driver gene alternations, making precision medicine possible. However, accurate genetic testing requires a sufficient amount of tumor cells in the specimen. The evaluation of tumor content ratio (TCR) from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained images has been found to vary between pathologists, making it an important challenge to obtain an accurate TCR.

[Echinococcosis Detected by a Solitary Shadow in the Lung].

Here we report a rare case of pulmonary coin lesion due to echinococcosis. An woman in her 60s who has no symptom was found a nodular shadow of the left lung incidentally. Since the nodule was enlarging, surgical treatment was done.

NKG2D Ligand Expression Induced by Oxidative Stress Mitigates Cutaneous Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

Pressure ulcers represent a crucial clinical problem, especially in hospitalized patients. Ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) is an important cause of these lesions. Natural killer (NK), invariant NK T (iNKT), and dendritic epidermal T-cells, which express the natural killer group 2, member D (NKG2D) receptor, have been reported to have physiological roles in skin tissue repair and wound healing.

Autopsy of a case of rheumatoid arthritis with severe bicytopoenia due to gelatinous transformation of the bone marrow.

We present the case of an elderly female patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with methotrexate. She was referred to our hospital with severe malaise. She was emaciated and had massive pleural effusion that induced atelectasis.

Preceding T-Cell-Mediated Rejection Is Associated with the Development of Chronic Active Antibody-Mediated Rejection by de Novo Donor-Specific Antibody.

Aim: Chronic active antibody-mediated rejection (CAABMR) is an important cause of late-stage renal allograft loss. Early inflammatory events such as acute rejection and infection after transplantation are considered to be the risk factors of de novo donor-specific antibody (dnDSA) production. In this study, we investigated the relationship between pre-disposing T-cell-mediated rejection and dnDSA-positive CAABMR.

A histopathological report of a 16-year-old male with peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis and Moyamoya disease with a homozygous mutation.

Peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis (PPAS) is a rare pulmonary vasculopathy characterized by multiple stenoses and obstructions in the peripheral pulmonary arteries. PPAS often develops in children with congenital diseases such as Williams syndrome and Alagille syndrome; however, recent studies have reported PPAS cases in adults with Moyamoya disease (MMD). Recent genetic studies have demonstrated that ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) is a susceptibility gene for MMD.
