Prevalence of High-Risk CTA-Based Carotid Plaque-RADS Subtypes in Patients With Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source.
Stroke
January 2025
Department of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania, PA. (L.I., S.E.Z., S.E.K., B.L.C.).
Background: A modified computed tomography angiography (CTA)-based Carotid Plaque Reporting and Data System (Plaque-RADS) classification was applied to a cohort of patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source to test whether high-risk Plaque-RADS subtypes are more prevalent on the ipsilateral side of stroke. With the widespread use of CTA for stroke evaluation, a CTA-based Plaque-RADS would be valuable for generalizability.
Methods: A retrospective observational cross-sectional study was conducted at a single integrated health system comprised of 3 hospitals with a comprehensive stroke center between October 1, 2015, and April 1, 2017.
Genetic Variants in the SCN9A Gene are Detected in a Minority of Erythromelalgia Patients.
Acta Derm Venereol
January 2025
Institute of Clinical Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway.
Gain-of-function variants in the voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.7, encoded by the SCN9A gene, have previously been identified in patients with erythromelalgia, a clinical diagnosis defined by intermittent attacks of painful, hot, swollen, and red skin, predominantly involving the hands and feet. Symptoms are induced or aggravated by warming and relieved by cooling.

AoB Plants

Plant Evolutionary Ecology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Goethe University Frankfurt, Max-von-Laue-Str. 13, 60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Local adaptation is a common phenomenon that helps plant populations to adjust to broad-scale environmental heterogeneity. Given the strong effect of forest management on the understorey microenvironment and often long-term effects of forest management actions, it seems likely that understorey herbs may have locally adapted to the practiced management regime and induced environmental variation. We investigated the response of and to forest management using a transplant experiment along a silvicultural management intensity gradient.

Front Immunol
January 2025
Department of Critical Care Medicine, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Background: Leukocytes play an important role in inflammatory response after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). We designed this study to identify TBI phenotypes by clustering blood levels of various leukocytes.
Methods: TBI patients from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-III (MIMIC-III) database were included.
First-line combination therapy of immunotherapy plus anti-angiogenic drug for thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumors in AIDS: a case report and review of the literature.
Front Immunol
January 2025
Department of Respiratory Medicine, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.
Background: Thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumors (SMARCA4-UT) exhibit a notably aggressive phenotype, which is associated with poor patient survival outcomes. These tumors are generally resistant to conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy, thereby limiting the availability of effective treatment options.
Case Presentation: We describe a 69-year-old AIDS patient who initially presented with a fused, enlarged lymph node on the right clavicle and mild, unexplained pain under the right axilla that worsened with severe coughing episodes.
