Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant health problem associated with several risk factors, increasingly driven by non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and metabolic syndrome. This association poses a challenge for the primary treatments of HCC, which may include immune checkpoint inhibitors and vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors, due to their potential cardiotoxic effect. Therefore, it is imperative to balance the therapeutic effects of these agents with their potential cardiovascular adverse events.

- Urbanization poses a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly affecting wild bee populations, which are declining globally.
- The study explores how floral traits, specifically nectar sugar concentration and corolla length, influence bee species richness in urban green spaces in Montreal, supporting the idea that diverse flower shapes can help sustain bee communities.
- The results indicate that enhancing the variety of floral morphologies can positively impact wild bee diversity, suggesting effective management practices for urban ecosystems.

Background: Nasal tip projection ideals have been based on the Caucasian nose; however, many racial groups have underprojected tips. Several methodologies have been described to measure ideal nasal tip projection. This study aimed to compare various methods to racially diverse groups to elucidate those best suited for race-specific facial morphology.

The vast majority of cases of primary brain rhabdomyosarcoma occur in pediatric patients, and immunohistochemistry can distinguish it from embryonal subtypes; however, few cases of primary brain rhabdomyosarcoma in adults have been reported in the literature.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 26-year-old White male patient who was found to have primary brain alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma after developing headaches for several months.
