Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness of the Psoas Major Muscle Following Abdominal Training: Case Report.

Edema of the psoas major muscle can indicate various pathologies, such as infection, malignancy, and trauma, but it can also result from benign causes like delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS). This article presents the case of a 44-year-old female patient who developed DOMS in the psoas major after participating in an intense abdominal workout. The patient reported hip pain that began a day after the workout, which was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealing significant edema in the psoas major muscles, particularly on the right side.

Potassium Intake and Bone Health: A Narrative Review.

Potassium is a cation involved in the resting phase of membrane potential. Diets rich in fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, dairy products, and coffee have high potassium content. The shift from a pre-agriculture diet to today's consumption has led to reduced potassium intake.

CD146 Molecule Expression in B Cells Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALLs): A Flow-Cytometric Marker for an Accurate Diagnostic Workup.

Background: B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALL) harboring the t(9;22)(q34;q11)/BCR::ABL1 rearrangement represent a category with previously dismal prognosis whose management and outcome dramatically changed thanks to the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) usage and more recently full chemo-free approaches. The prompt identification of these cases represents an important clinical need.

Objectives: We sought to identify an optimized cytofluorimetric diagnostic panel to predict the presence of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) in B-ALL cases by the introduction of CD146 in our multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) panels.
