Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the importance of accurately diagnosing peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPL) using biopsy methods such as endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), computed tomography (CT), and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB).
- A systematic review was conducted, including 81 studies from various databases, to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of these techniques, with CT showing the highest median accuracy and largest potential for complications.
- The findings suggest that while CT-guided biopsies are the most accurate, they also carry the highest risk of complications; overall, the accuracy calculation must account for indeterminate results treated as false negatives.
Background: COVID-19 is a pandemic disease affecting predominantly the respiratory apparatus with clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic to respiratory failure. Chest CT is a crucial tool in diagnosing and evaluating the severity of pulmonary involvement through dedicated scoring systems. Nonetheless, many questions regarding the relationship of radiologic and clinical features of the disease have emerged in multidisciplinary meetings.

In this study, we investigated the effects of the marine microalga F&M-M36 () on cardiometabolic components of pre-MetS and its underlying mechanisms. Rats were fed a standard (5% fat) or a high-fat diet (20% fat) supplemented or not with 5% of or fenofibrate (100 mg/Kg) for 3 months.

- - The analysis of tissue alterations is essential in pathology for accurate diagnoses, and new techniques in tissue clearing and fluorescence microscopy have enabled 3D studies of biological tissues.
- - Combining advanced fluorescence microscopy with classical staining methods like H&E has led to the development of 3D histology, allowing for more detailed observations of tissue structures.
- - The use of fluorescence staining techniques allows for comparable results to traditional methods, making 3D imaging accessible for pathologists and opening up new possibilities in clinical pathology.
