Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on the semimembranosus muscle and its tendons, highlighting their anatomical features and relevance to knee pathologies through ultrasound examination and dissection.
- - Researchers examined 38 adult and 4 fetal knee specimens to analyze the muscle's anatomy and functions, noting significant tendon divisions, muscle rotation, and key measurements of the structure.
- - Findings showed important anatomical relationships that aid in understanding knee issues, which can enhance diagnosis and rehabilitation strategies following knee surgery.
Article Synopsis
- Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is the most common skin sarcoma, known for its aggressive local behavior and higher likelihood of recurrence, especially when fibrosarcomatous areas are present in the tumor.
- A study analyzed data from 148 DFSP patients over 31 years, focusing on clinical features and recurrence factors, finding that fibrosarcomatous variations significantly increase recurrence risk (50% vs. 6.82% for classic DFSP).
- The presence of fibrosarcomatous areas was identified as the sole significant factor affecting disease-free survival, highlighting its importance in patient prognosis and treatment.
We aimed to identify and validate a set of miRNAs that could serve as a prognostic signature useful to determine the recurrence risk for patients with COAD. Small RNAs from tumors of 100 stage II, untreated, MSS colon cancer patients were sequenced for the discovery step. For this purpose, we built an miRNA score using an elastic net Cox regression model based on the disease-free survival status.

Purpose: Our aim was to review other possible locations of ulnar nerve entrapment in an ultrasound and anatomical study.
Article Synopsis
- Lynch syndrome (LS) is a genetic condition that increases the risk of colorectal cancer and other cancers, but many people with it don't know they have it.
- A study was done on people under 70 with colorectal cancer to see how well they could be screened for LS, which involved checking their tissue samples for specific protein changes.
- Out of 381 people in the study, 10 were diagnosed with LS and it helped find 26 more family members at risk through follow-up testing.
