Aim To examine the relationship between tumor differentiation, parametrial, and lymphovascular invasion, as well as the differential expression pattern of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and various forms of cervical cancer. Methods Histologically diagnosed cases of in-situ and malignant lesions of the cervix were included in the study. Two sections were cut from paraffin blocks.

- VACTERL association is a grouping of birth defects affecting various organ systems, and a diagnosis requires presence of at least three anomalies without any other identifiable patterns.
- A case study involves a pregnant woman in her 20s whose fetus was found to have multiple abnormalities during prenatal scans, leading to the decision to terminate the pregnancy due to poor prognosis.
- Post-abortion autopsy revealed significant defects, including club feet and heart anomalies, demonstrating the value of fetal autopsies for confirming diagnoses and understanding underlying causes in similar situations.
Benign vascular neoplasms, or hemangiomas, can develop anywhere in the body.As they are usually asymptomatic, they are discovered incidentally while evaluating other coexisting diseases or conditions. We herein report two cases of capillary hemangioma at two extremely rare sites.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA gastrointestinal stromal tumortumour (GIST) is an uncommon gastrointestinal neoplasm that can arise from any part of the gastrointestinal tract. They can rarely present as a pelvic mass, which might result in a gynaecological condition being misdiagnosed in a female patient. A woman in her early 70s presented with a huge pelvic mass.

Methods: Monthly anti-N seroprevalence during 1 August 2020 to 30 March 2021 was estimated using a nationwide blood donor serosurvey. Using multivariable logistic regression models, we measured the association of seropositivity and state-issued, county-specific NPIs for mask mandates, gathering bans, and bar closures.
