Diagnostic Accuracy of Rapid Antigen Tests for Trichomoniasis: A Meta-analysis.
J Low Genit Tract Dis
January 2025
Department of Pathology, Saint Paul's Hospital, Taoyuan, Taiwan.
Objective: Trichomoniasis is a globally prevalent sexually transmitted infection caused by the protozoan Trichomonas vaginalis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is the gold standard for diagnosing trichomoniasis, but it is expensive. Antigen tests are immunochromatographic immunoassays that detect T.

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple systems in the body and is the most prevalent congenital syndrome, leading to bone marrow failure. Twenty-two genes have been identified as contributors to the disease. Significant advancements have been made in the past 2 decades in understanding the genetic and pathophysiological processes involved.

Cardiology Unit, Azienda Ospedaliera Universitaria di Ferrara, Cona, Ferrara, Italy.
Introduction: Cardiac amyloidosis typically causes restrictive cardiomyopathy, in which the impairment of diastolic function is dominant. Echocardiography provides prognostic information through some important parameters: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and global longitudinal strain (GLS). However, LVEF often remains preserved despite disease progression, and GLS is not routinely performed as it is limited by suboptimal image quality.

J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown)
February 2025
Center of Excellence in Cardiovascular Sciences, Ospedale Isola Tiberina, Gemelli Isola.
Aims: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is a heterogeneous condition defined by reduced coronary flow reserve (CFR). The new index 'microvascular resistance reserve' (MRR) has been developed, but its role is unclear. We investigate the relationships between functional indices in ANOCA (angina and non-obstructive coronary arteries) patients and evaluate the hemodynamic features of different CMD subtypes.

Rev Paul Pediatr
January 2025
Universidade do Estado do Pará, Belém, PA, Brazil.
Objective: To highlight the importance of early recognition of hypopigmented mycosis fungoides (HMF) in cases of cutaneous hypochromia in children, with a view to an effective diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
Case Description: Two cases of HMF in children are reported. The first case involves an eight-year-old boy with hypochromic macules on the trunk and root of the upper and lower limbs, while the second case is a six-year-old boy with widespread hypochromic patches.
