Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) affects small and medium vessel, which sometimes leads to arterial aneurysms. In English database, only 15 reports refer to ruptured aneurysms in MPA. We experienced a fatal case with MPA who developed multiple visceral aneurysms, resulting in rupture of the hepatic aneurysm.

Lung cancer is a highly prevalent and fatal cancer that seriously threatens the safety of people in various regions around the world. Difficulty in early diagnosis and strong drug resistance have always been difficulties in the treatment of lung cancer, so the prognosis of lung cancer has always been the focus of scientific researchers. This study used genotype-tissue expression (GTEx) and the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) databases to obtain 477 lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and 347 healthy individuals' samples as research subjects and divided LUAD patients into low-risk and high-risk groups based on prognostic risk scores.

Background: Catheter-directed treatment (CDT) is an innovative treatment for patients with elevated risk pulmonary embolism (PE) to resolve embolus and restore pulmonary perfusion.

Objectives: We aimed to analyse the use and the benefit of CDT in PE patients in Germany.

Methods: The German nationwide inpatient sample was used to include all hospitalizations of patients with PE from 2005 to 2020 in Germany.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and ultimately fatal disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by interstitial fibrosis of the lungs. Bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model (BLM model) is a widely used animal model to evaluate therapeutic targets for IPF. Histopathological analysis of lung fibrosis is an important method for evaluating BLM model.

Background: Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) particularly when coupled with acute respiratory failure (ARF), markedly elevates mortality rates. This investigation focuses on pivotal inflammatory markers in exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lactate-to-albumin ratio (LAR), glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), which are easily determinable from peripheral blood. We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of NLR, LAR, GLR, SII, PNI, and PLR for in-hospital mortality among AECOPD patients with ARF.
