Detailed One-Year Follow-Up in Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing: Echocardiography, Natriuretic Peptide, Electrical Parameters and Complications.

: LBBAP is a promising method of cardiac pacing. Data on some follow-up details are still limited. We aimed to evaluate LBBAP over a one-year follow-up period.

Pluripotency transcription factors in lung cancer-a review.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Diagnosis of lung cancer in an early stage is still a challenge due to the asymptomatic course of early stages of the disease and the lack of a standard screening program for the population. Nowadays, learning about the mechanisms that lead to cancerogenesis in the lung is crucial for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

[Positron emission tomography (PET) in malignant ovarian tumors].

Accessibility of positron emission tomography integrated with computed tomography (PET/CT) has improved significantly in recent years. PET/CT with the use of 18F-deoxyglucose (FDG) is widely used in patients with ovarian malignancies at different stages of the management. FDG PET/CT shows high diagnostic accuracy in the differentiation of benign and malignant ovarian lesions with the exception of borderline tumors that may cause false negative results.

Risk of neoplasms in acromegaly.

Acromegaly is a chronic disease caused by the excessive secretion of growth hormone (GH), and as a result, of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Untreated, the condition reduces the patients' life expectancy and leads to a series of complications, among which an increased risk of carcinogenesis is considered most important. This paper is an analysis of the publications on the issue of the formation of neoplasms, both malignant and benign, in acromegalic patients.
