Magic-angle spinning NMR is now making a significant contribution to our understanding of the structure of polymorphs and solvates of pharmaceutical significance. This personal review article discusses a range of applications, with particular emphasis on information about crystallography, for which NMR can address problems that cannot be readily solved by diffraction techniques (such as dynamic disorder and non-stoichiometric hydration). Unlike diffractograms, NMR spectra yield immediate chemical information. Moreover, heterogeneous samples can be investigated and amorphous content provides no significant barrier to studies. Furthermore, NMR can be an effective technique for quantitation (down to the level of ca. 1%). Additional strength is being derived from computation of chemical shifts in solids, using a code that takes account of the spatial repetition inherent in crystalline materials.

Laparoscopic surgery for giant retroperitoneal lymphangioma: a case report.

J Surg Case Rep

January 2025

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, YiChun City People's Hospital, 1061 Jinxiu Avenue, Yichun 336000, Jiangxi, China.

This case report describes a 66-year-old male diagnosed with a giant retroperitoneal lymphangioma, presenting with an abdominal mass confirmed via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Laparoscopic surgery was successfully performed to excise the mass, with histopathological examination confirming the diagnosis. The patient's postoperative recovery was uneventful, with no signs of recurrence or metastasis observed at the three-month follow-up.

Background: Supratentorial function-eloquent brain tumour surgeries challenge the balance between maximal tumour resection and preservation of neurological function. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative and intraoperative mapping techniques on resection outcomes and post-operative deficits.

Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis examined literature up to March 2023, sourced from PubMed, Embase, and Medline.

Background: Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) represents one of the rarer forms of plasma cell malignancies, capable of impacting a variety of tissues and organs throughout the body. The majority of EMP cases are predominantly found in the head and neck region, especially within the laryngopharynx, as well as in the gastrointestinal tract. While there have been documented instances of oropharyngeal involvement in EMP cases in the academic literature, it is important to note that EMP specifically affecting the uvula is exceedingly uncommon.
