Background: Myxoid liposarcoma, a rare type of tumor, accounts for approximately 30% of all liposarcomas. Myxoid liposarcomas harboring the FUS/CHOP fusion gene have shown promising results with trabectedin in basic research and some clinical experiments. However, the efficacy and safety of trabectedin in chemotherapy-naive soft tissue sarcomas or FUS/CHOP fusion gene-positive myxoid liposarcomas have not yet been established.

- Brunner's gland hamartoma (BGH) is a benign tumor found in the duodenal bulb, often asymptomatic but can sometimes lead to anemia.
- A 76-year-old male patient with prostate cancer was monitored for anemia over 10 years, during which a polyp in the duodenum was noted and assessed through multiple endoscopies.
- Eventually, due to significant growth of the polyp and worsening anemia, an endoscopic polypectomy was performed, confirming the tumor as BGH.
Article Synopsis
- - MELAS syndrome is caused by a mitochondrial DNA mutation that affects the modification of tRNA, leading to problems with energy production in cells.
- - This condition results in issues such as muscular weakness, brain dysfunction, increased lactic acid, and episodes resembling strokes.
- - High-dose taurine supplementation has shown potential in clinical trials, helping to reduce stroke-like episodes and enhance cellular function in affected patients.
This research aimed to examine the effect of daily intake of food containing strain T21 (T21) on skin conditions and inflammation-related markers in healthy adults who experience itching because of dry skin and have an atopic predisposition. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel-group study was conducted on 44 subjects aged 20 to 64 years. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive a T21-containing food or placebo daily for 8 weeks.
