Unusual Presentation of Myeloid Sarcoma as Thigh Mass.

Introduction: Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a tumor containing myeloid blasts, with or without maturation, involving any anatomical site other than the bone marrow. It can occur de novo or following a hematological malignancy.

Case: We report a 6-year-old female who presented with fever and a rapidly enlarging left thigh mass.

Medical Negligence by Postgraduate Students and Residents: The Liability Trail.

Postgraduate students or physicians in training are bound to make mistakes. In medical negligence litigation involving the postgraduate students, the supervising faculty members as well as the hospital where the alleged act has occurred could also be found liable. In this review article, the applicable legal principles and a brief summary of the case laws are presented.

Nef defect attenuates HIV viremia and immune dysregulation in the bone marrow-liver-thymus-spleen (BLTS) humanized mouse model.

In vitro studies have shown that deletion of nef and deleterious mutation in the Nef dimerization interface attenuates HIV replication and associated pathogenesis. Humanized rodents with human immune cells and lymphoid tissues are robust in vivo models for investigating the interactions between HIV and the human immune system. Here, we demonstrate that nef deletion impairs HIV replication and HIV-induced immune dysregulation in the blood and human secondary lymphoid tissue (human spleen) in bone marrow-liver-thymus-spleen (BLTS) humanized mice.

AG-MSTLN-EL: A Multi-source Transfer Learning Approach to Brain Tumor Detection.

The analysis of medical images (MI) is an important part of advanced medicine as it helps detect and diagnose various diseases early. Classifying brain tumors through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) poses a challenge demanding accurate models for effective diagnosis and treatment planning. This paper introduces AG-MSTLN-EL, an attention-aided multi-source transfer learning ensemble learning model leveraging multi-source transfer learning (Visual Geometry Group ResNet and GoogLeNet), attention mechanisms, and ensemble learning to achieve robust and accurate brain tumor classification.

Impact of bismuth oxide on structural, optical and gamma-ray shielding properties of calcium-sodium-borate glasses.

In the present study, we have prepared six glass samples of bismuth borate using the melt-quenching method with the composition (70-x)B2O3-10CaO-20Na2O-xBi2O3; x = 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15 mol%. The density of the prepared glasses was determined using Archimedes principle. The X-ray diffraction patterns provide confirmation of the amorphous nature of the prepared samples, whereas the Fourier transform infrared measurements pointed to the existence of structural units like BO3, BO4, BiO3 and BiO6 within the glass network.
