Semaglutide as an Adjunctive Therapy to Standard Management for Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension: A Real-World Data-Based Retrospective Analysis.

Background: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a neurological disorder characterized by elevated intracranial pressure, predominantly affecting young women with obesity. This study evaluates the effectiveness of semaglutide as an adjunctive therapy to standard IIH management using real-world data.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis comparing IIH patients receiving semaglutide plus standard therapy versus standard therapy alone.
Invasive Aspergillosis with Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis Following High-Dose Corticosteroid Therapy: A Challenging Case of Rhino-Orbital-Cerebral Mycosis.

Invasive aspergillosis is a rare but severe fungal infection primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. The Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has introduced new complexities in managing aspergillosis due to the widespread use of corticosteroids for treating COVID-19-related respiratory distress, which can increase susceptibility to fungal infections. Here, we present a challenging case of progressive cerebral aspergillosis complicated by cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) in a 67-year-old male with a history of COVID-19.

Portal cavernoma cholangiopathy (PCC), also known as portal biliopathy, refers to biliary duct abnormalities caused by extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO) and subsequent cavernous transformation of the portal vein. Pseudotumoral portal cavernoma is a specific subtype of PCC characterized by the presence of numerous thin collateral veins that mimic the sheath of the common bile duct (CBD). We present a case of a 42-year-old women with pseudotumoral portal cavernoma secondary to portal vein thrombosis, a complication of myeloproliferative disorder.

Background And Aims: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a rare neurological disorder in the pediatric population which is defined as an increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) without the presence of brain parenchymal lesions, hydrocephalus, or central nervous system infection. In this study, we have determined the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in IIH patients.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted using the electronic databases including Web of Sciences, Scopus, and Pubmed to identify suitable and relevant articles using keyword search methods.
Combination of circulating tumor cells and 18F-FDG PET/CT for precision diagnosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

The First Central Clinical School, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin, China.
Purpose: To investigate the value of 2-deoxy-18f-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) for the differential diagnosis of patients with benign lung diseases and those with NSCLC. To explore the phenotypic heterogeneity of CTCs and their correlation with FDG uptake in patients with Stage I-IV NSCLC.
Methods: Blood specimens from patients with benign lung diseases and patients with primary NSCLC were collected for the detection of CTCs and their subtypes (epithelial, mixed, and mesenchymal) and analyzed for 18F-FDG PET/CT tumor metabolic parameters, including the maximum standardized uptake value (SUV), standard uptake value (SUL), metabolic tumor volume of primary lesion (MTV), total lesion glycolysis of primary lesion (TLG).
