Inter-Rater Disagreements in Applying the Montreal Classification for Crohn's Disease: The Five-Nations Survey Study.
United European Gastroenterol J
January 2025
Sheba Medical Center, Institute of Gastroenterology, Ramat-Gan, Israel.
Background: The Montreal classification has been widely used in Crohn's disease since 2005 to categorize patients by the age of onset (A), disease location (L), behavior (B), and upper gastrointestinal tract and perianal involvement. With evolving management paradigms in Crohn's disease, we aimed to assess the performance of gastroenterologists in applying the Montreal classification.
Methods: An online survey was conducted among participants at an international educational conference on inflammatory bowel diseases.
Chicago Sky Blue Stain, Calcofluor White Stain, and Potassium Hydroxide Mount for Diagnosis of Dermatomycosis.
J Coll Physicians Surg Pak
January 2025
Department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology / National University of Medical Sciences, Rawalpindi, Pakistan.
Objective: To evaluate Chicago Sky Blue (CSB) stain, Calcofluor white (CW) stain, and Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) mount for rapid diagnosis of dermatomycosis, using fungal culture as the gold standard.
Study Design: Cross-sectional analytical study. Place and Duration of the Study: This study was conducted in the Department of Microbiology, Armed Forces Institute of Pathology / National University of Medical Sciences, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, from July 2023 to February 2024.
Development of a Deep Learning Tool to Support the Assessment of Thyroid Follicular Cell Hypertrophy in the Rat.
Toxicol Pathol
January 2025
Charles River Laboratories, Edinburgh, UK.
Thyroid tissue is sensitive to the effects of endocrine disrupting substances, and this represents a significant health concern. Histopathological analysis of tissue sections of the rat thyroid gland remains the gold standard for the evaluation for agrochemical effects on the thyroid. However, there is a high degree of variability in the appearance of the rat thyroid gland, and toxicologic pathologists often struggle to decide on and consistently apply a threshold for recording low-grade thyroid follicular hypertrophy.

January 2025
Department of Laboratory Medicine, Yonsei University College of Medicine, 50-1 Yonsei-ro, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, 03722, Korea.
Background: The prognosis of a plasma cell neoplasm (PCN) varies depending on the presence of genetic abnormalities. However, detecting sensitive genetic mutations poses challenges due to the heterogeneous nature of the cell population in bone marrow aspiration. The established gold standard for cell sorting is fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), which is associated with lengthy processing times, substantial cell quantities, and expensive equipment.

Eur J Clin Nutr

Division of Gastroenterology (Liver Unit), Department of Medicine, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada.
The accurate assessment of body composition in cirrhosis is challenging as fluid accumulation affects most techniques. The whole-body counter is a state-of-the-art method that measures total body potassium (TBK) unbiased by fluid, from which body cell mass (BCM) is derived. This pilot study in 20 patients with cirrhosis evaluated bedside tools including the liver frailty index (LFI), bioimpedance analysis-based phase angle, calf circumference (CC), and BMI (body mass index)/edema-adjusted CC, and explored their association with TBK and BCM.
