Morphological analysis of the sclerotic changes in peripheral lung carcinoma (PLC) and nephrosclerosis in renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) established a promoting role of sclerosis in carcinoma development. The pneumosclerosis role as a background process in the PLC development is proved by the following facts: high proportion (83%) of the carcinoma in the scar among PLC; identity of the scar collagen composition in PLC and that in metatuberculosis and metapneumonic pneumosclerosis foci; detection of metatuberculosis foci in 75% of PLC; the presence of the precancerous changes in the epithelium entrapped in the pneumosclerotic foci, not only with signs of morphological atypia, but with the disturbance of nuclear DNA and cellular oncogene expression as well. The association of RCC with nephrosclerosis is shown by a high proportion (82.7%) of the RCC development against the background of nephrosclerosis; the dependence of the so-called cortical adenoma development on the degree of nephrosclerosis; epithelial proliferation in the nephrosclerotic foci with the appearance of undifferentiated cells with the altered DNA content and the expression of cytokeratins and vimentine. Carcinoma morphogenesis against the background of sclerosis may be described as follows: development of sclerosis (focal and/or diffuse), the appearance of the focal epithelial hyperplasia in the scar, dysplasia or adenoma and finally carcinoma.

Predictive factors of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormality on high-resolution computed tomography scans: a prospective observational study.

Background: Fibrotic types of interstitial lung abnormalities seen on high-resolution computed tomography scans, characterised by traction bronchiolectasis/bronchiectasis with or without honeycombing, are predictors of progression and poor prognostic factors of interstitial lung abnormalities. There are no reports on the clinical characteristics of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormalities on high-resolution computed tomography scans. Therefore, we aimed to examine these clinical characteristics and clarify the predictive factors of fibrotic interstitial lung abnormalities on high-resolution computed tomography scans.

Introduction: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (BMSC-EVs) are widely used for therapeutic purposes in preclinical studies. However, their utility in treating diabetes-associated atherosclerosis remains largely unexplored. Here, we aimed to characterize BMSC-EV-mediated regulation of autophagy and macrophage polarization.

Background: Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The increase in antimicrobial resistance in respiratory pathogens poses a major challenge to the effective management of these infections.
Objective: To investigate the distribution of major pathogens of RTIs and their antimicrobial resistance patterns in a tertiary care hospital and to develop a mathematical model to explore the relationship between pathogen distribution and antimicrobial resistance.

Introduction: Little is known about the symptom burden of breast cancer survivors with early-stage disease. Many studies have focused on symptoms of patients who are undergoing or recently completed systemic therapy. However, with the increased use of Oncotype DX, the proportion of early-stage hormone receptor-positive patients who undergo chemotherapy has declined, making existing studies of the symptom experience less useful for these patients.

Neuromuscular diseases usually manifest as abnormalities involving motor neurons, neuromuscular junctions, and skeletal muscle (SkM) in postnatal stage. Present in vitro models of neuromuscular interactions require a long time and lack neuroglia involvement. Our study aimed to construct rodent bioengineered spinal cord neural network-skeletal muscle (NN-SkM) assembloids to elucidate the interactions between spinal cord neural stem cells (SC-NSCs) and SkM cells and their biological effects on the development and maturation of postnatal spinal cord motor neural circuits.
