Primary cutaneous mucinous carcinoma (PCMC) is a rare malignant neoplasm that originates from the deepest part of the eccrine sweat glands. Characterized by slow growth, PCMC often appears on the head and neck of older patients. Although it rarely metastasizes, its high recurrence rate leads to significant morbidity.

Disentangling the contributions from fluctuations in the nuclear overlap size (geometrical component) and other sources at a fixed size (intrinsic component) remains a challenge. This problem is addressed by measuring the mean, variance, and skewness of P([p_{T}]) in ^{208}Pb+^{208}Pb and ^{129}Xe+^{129}Xe collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.

- The study aimed to evaluate the pediatric Brain Injury Guidelines (pBIG) for identifying pediatric patients with traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) who may not need further neuroimaging or hospitalization.
- A total of 955 patients were analyzed, with findings showing that the majority had pBIG 2 or 3 injuries, and nearly 40% of those who had repeat imaging showed hemorrhage progression.
- Those meeting pBIG 3 criteria were significantly more likely to need surgical intervention or face higher mortality rates, emphasizing the importance of the guidelines in determining treatment urgency.
Background: Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a type of fibroproliferative disease that involves the palmar aspect of the hand. Although many benign fibroproliferative diseases have been shown to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, the relationship between DD and myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke has not been fully elucidated.
Methods: A total of 35,909 patients with DD and a control cohort with 1,077,270 age- and sex-matched participants from the Korean National Health Insurance database were included.
Retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) is an innate immune RNA sensor which can detect viral infection such as influenza viruses. Duck but not chicken has an RIG-I gene. However, the immune responses could be induced in chicken cells by transferring the duck RIG-I transgene.
