Article Synopsis
- The rise in attention on preventing acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in children highlights its prevalence and links it to various risk factors affecting gut microbiota development, such as breastfeeding practices and cesarean deliveries.
- Research indicates that iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and vitamin D deficiency can disrupt gut health, decrease beneficial gut bacteria like Firmicutes, and lead to insufficient butyrate levels, potentially increasing the risk of hematological cancers.
- IDA is also associated with heightened blood levels of cadmium, systemic inflammation, and decreased vitamin D synthesis, all of which could cumulatively contribute to genetic mutations that lead to the onset of ALL.
Background: Only a few articles have been published about the lateral posterior choroidal artery (LPChA), and yet none of them contains data regarding the thalamic branches.
Methods: The LPChA and its twigs of the 26 cerebral hemispheres were injected with a mixture of a 10% Indian ink and gelatin. Following fixation in a 10% formaldehyde solution, the vessels were micro dissected under the stereoscopic microscope.
Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) accounts for 1.7%-4% of all acute coronary syndrome presentations, particularly among young women with an emerging awareness of its importance. The demarcation of acute SCAD from coronary atherothrombosis and the proper therapeutic approach still represents a major clinical challenge.

As we know, APS is also characterised by accelerated atherosclerotic degeneration with an increased risk of thrombosis in all blood vessels, including the carotid arteries. Carotid artery stenosis can manifest in many different ways.

Retrospective volumetric analysis included both genders and was performed on total of 183 patients - 91 patients with diagnosed Grave's disease and thyroid eye disease and 92 patients without Grave's disease and thyroid eye disease who underwent multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) examination in routine daily work according to other medical indications. In the group of females, there was statistical significance between patients with thyroid eye disease and controls who were smoking and had body weight gain.
