Background: Genomic data is essential for clinical decision-making in precision oncology. Bioinformatic algorithms are widely used to analyze next-generation sequencing (NGS) data, but they face two major challenges. First, these pipelines are highly complex, involving multiple steps and the integration of various tools.

Medical image classification requires labeled, task-specific datasets which are used to train deep learning networks de novo, or to fine-tune foundation models. However, this process is computationally and technically demanding. In language processing, in-context learning provides an alternative, where models learn from within prompts, bypassing the need for parameter updates.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared two treatment methods for breast abscesses: traditional incision and drainage (I&D) and ultrasound (USG)-guided aspiration, focusing on their effectiveness and patient outcomes.
  • Fifty women were divided into two groups, with group A receiving I&D under general anesthesia and group B receiving USG-guided aspiration under local anesthesia, followed by a two-week recovery assessment.
  • Results showed that USG-guided aspiration led to faster healing, fewer complications, better resumption of lactation, and no scarring, suggesting it is a safer and more patient-friendly option compared to the traditional I&D approach.

Carbendazim is a widely used fungicide to protect agricultural and horticultural crops against a wide array of fungal species. Published reports have shown that the wide usage of carbendazim resulted in reprotoxicity, carcinogenicity, immunotoxicity, and developmental toxicity in mammalian models. However, studies related to the developmental toxicity of carbendazim in aquatic organisms are not clear.

It is well known that the epididymis promotes post-testicular sperm maturation events. However, its malfunction during congenital hypothyroidism is relatively less understood as compared to the testis. The present study evaluated the probable effect of α-lipoic acid on epididymal oxidative stress parameters in rats exposed to antithyroid drug, carbimazole during fetal period.
