A Systematic Review of Artificial Intelligence Applications in the Management of Lung Disorders.

This systematic review examines the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in managing lung disorders through a comprehensive analysis of articles spanning 2014 to 2023. Evaluating AI's multifaceted roles in radiological imaging, disease burden prediction, detection, diagnosis, and molecular mechanisms, this review presents a critical synthesis of key insights from select articles. The findings underscore AI's significant strides in bolstering diagnostic accuracy, interpreting radiological imaging, predicting disease burdens, and deepening the understanding of tuberculosis (TB), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), silicosis, pneumoconiosis, and lung fibrosis.

A Case of Bradycardia, Renal Failure, Atrioventricular Nodal Blockade, Shock, and Hyperkalaemia (BRASH) Syndrome in an Elderly Male and Its Management: A Case Report and Literature Review.

BRASH syndrome, characterized by bradycardia, renal dysfunction, atrioventricular (AV) nodal blockage, shock, and hyperkalemia, is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition resulting from the interplay between AV nodal blockers and hyperkalemia. This complex syndrome poses significant challenges in diagnosis and management, with patients often presenting with bradycardia and high potassium levels. This case report highlights the need for increased awareness of BRASH syndrome, especially in an aging population and evolving cardiovascular treatments.

Unconventional Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Presentation From Kentucky: A Compelling Case Report and Literature Review.

Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF) is a potentially lethal tick-borne disease caused by Rickettsia rickettsii, known for its tropism for vascular endothelial cells. Its classic symptoms include fever, headaches, and a rash, but atypical presentations can challenge diagnosis. We present the case of a 71-year-old male with fever, weakness, and hiccups, evolving into confusion.

A Rare Case of Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma Complicated by Massive Pericardial Effusion and Cardiac Tamponade: A Case Report.

This case report presents a late middle-aged man with a right infra-hilar lung mass and pericardial effusion (PE). The patient was diagnosed with metastatic small-cell lung carcinoma, with metastases to the liver, pancreas, and cerebellum. The pericardial fluid cytology confirmed the presence of malignant cells most compatible with non-small-cell carcinoma.

A Rare Case of Hyperandrogenism Due to Fibrothecoma and Leydig Cell Tumor in a Postmenopausal Woman With Adrenal Adenoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Hyperandrogenism is an endocrine disorder characterized by an elevated level of androgen in women, which can be due to several etiologies, including ovarian and adrenal causes. Hyperandrogenism can result in hirsutism and virilization in severe cases. Ovarian etiologies can include ovarian hyperthecosis, hilus cell tumors, arrhenoblastomas, and Leydig cell tumors.
