Two cases of interstitial cystitis complicated with fibromyalgia syndrome are reported. These diseases have some similar points regarding symptoms, treatment methods and neurotransmitters causatively involved. The symptoms are hardly recognized. It is important to have knowledge about the disease of fibromyalgia syndrome.

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated advances in molecular biology and virology, enabling the identification of key biomarkers to differentiate between severe and mild cases. Furthermore, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to analyze large datasets has been crucial for rapidly identifying relevant biomarkers for disease prognosis, including COVID-19. This approach enhances diagnostics in emergency settings, allowing for more accurate and efficient patient management.

Background: The ongoing military conflict in Ukraine has had a devastating impact on children's health, exposing them to a range of illnesses. The aim of this study was to analyze the most common medical conditions among Ukrainian children since the beginning of the conflict, with a focus on identifying and understanding these problems in a wartime setting.
Method: To assess the health status of affected children, we collected data from 422 pediatric patients who presented to the emergency department.

We combine atomistic and continuum simulation methods to study the defect chemistry of a model grain boundary in UO. Using atomistic methods, we calculate the formation energies of oxygen interstitials, uranium vacancies, and hole polarons (U ions) across the Σ5(310)[001] symmetric tilt grain boundary. This information is then used as input in a continuum model of point-defect concentrations at the grain boundary and in its vicinity, taking into account electrostatic (space-charge) effects.

Syphilis, known as "the great mimicker," is caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum and is characterized by a diverse array of clinical and histopathologic presentations. In secondary cutaneous syphilis, the most consistent morphological features include a superficial and deep perivascular infiltrate containing plasma cells, varying degrees of endothelial swelling, irregular acanthosis, elongation of rete ridges, a vacuolated pattern, and the presence of plasma cells. Although serologic tests are essential for definitive diagnosis, spirochetes can sometimes be directly identified in silver-stained tissue slides or through immunohistochemistry.
