Budd-Chiari syndrome with obstruction in the inferior vena cava causes increased venous pressure in the azygous-hemiazygous system and paravertebral venous plexus, which is transmitted to the epidural venous plexus, devoid of the valves. It causes epidural venous plexus engorgement and venous congestion and may present rarely with low back pain or radiating pain. However, patients developing lower limb weakness as a complication of Budd-Chiari syndrome is an infrequent and severe presentation.

Background And Objectives: For stroke survivors (SS) who undergo decompressive craniectomy (DC), quality of life is intertwined with the care they receive. Burden on caregiver becomes an important determinant of recovery of SS. In this study, we aimed to analyze the determinants of burden on caregivers of SS who undergo DC.

- Mastitis is a complex disease affecting milk production and reproduction in dairy animals, worsened by breeding practices, climate change, and hygiene issues.
- AI and advanced genomic techniques, such as predictive genomics and CRISPR, have shown promise in identifying genetic traits related to mastitis susceptibility.
- Integration of these technologies supports the development of better diagnostic, preventive, and treatment strategies, offering the potential to enhance dairy herd health and farm profitability.
Article Synopsis
- Differentiating liver tumors is crucial for appropriate treatment and prognosis, but non-invasive methods often struggle due to overlapping features in imaging.
- This study evaluated CT perfusion parameters in 48 patients to help distinguish hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from other liver tumors, using statistical analysis to identify significant perfusion metrics.
- Results indicated that blood volume (BV) was particularly effective in differentiating HCC from other tumors, achieving a sensitivity of 96.6% and specificity of 80% at a threshold of 8.3 ml/100 ml/min, alongside several other significant perfusion parameters.
Left-sided portal hypertension (LPH) refers to increased splenic venous pressure caused by splenic vein stenosis or occlusion. Pancreatitis is the leading cause of LPH. Typically, LPH remains asymptomatic, but it can lead to life-threatening hemorrhage from ruptured fundal varices in about 10% of patients.
