One hundred young patients (aged 17-45 years) with acute cerebral blood circulation disorders (ACBCD) have been studied. Phenotypic signs of non-differential dysplasia of the connective tissue (NDDCT) have been found in 50 patients (the main group) and other 50 patients had no clinical signs of NDDCT (the comparison group). Patients underwent a complex clinico-neurological, instrumental and laboratory study. In young patients with NDDCT, transient ischemic attacks were observed in 14%, ischemic strokes in 66%, hemorrhagic strokes in 20%. Risk factors characteristic of young patients with ACBCD have been singled out. The higher content of free oxyproline, the distinct positive dynamics (the reduction of clinical symptoms severity during the acute phase of stroke) and the significantly better restoration of lost functions were observed in patients with NDDCT compared to patients without NDDCT.

Purpose: Renal medullary carcinoma (RMC) is a highly aggressive malignancy defined by the loss of the SMARCB1 tumor suppressor. It mainly affects young individuals of African descent with sickle cell trait, and it is resistant to conventional therapies used for other renal cell carcinomas. This study aimed to identify potential biomarkers for early detection and disease monitoring of RMC.

Background: Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Fatigue Short-Form (PROMIS-F-SF) is a self-administered, patient reported outcome (PRO) designed to assess fatigue in healthy and clinical populations and for tracking progress during treatment for disorders complicated with fatigue.
Methods: Patients in the Mental Health Service Outpatient Clinics and healthy volunteers were invited to complete a survey, which included the Danish translation of the PROMIS-F-SF, the Chalder Fatigue Scale (CFS-11), and measures of depression and anxiety. We conducted a confirmatory factor analysis of the previously suggested single-factor structure of the instrument.

Glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI) deficiency caused by GPI gene mutations is a rare heterogenous condition that causes hereditary non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia (HNSHA). Patients who suffer from severe anemia may need more effective treatment. Here, clinical data and genetic testing results of two cases of HNSHA with GPI mutations treated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) were retrospectively analyzed.

Staging of pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma is currently based on the Ann Arbor classification, incorporating the Cotswold modifications and the Lugano classification. The Cotswold modifications provide guidelines for the use of CT and MRI. The Lugano classification emphasizes the importance of CT and PET/CT in evaluating both Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma but focuses on adult patients.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacy of two regional anesthesia methods, transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block and erector spinae plane (ESP) block, for intraoperative and postoperative pain relief in patients undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomy.
Methods: Fifty patients aged 18-80 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification I-II scheduled for elective laparoscopic nephrectomy were included after ethical approval and informed consent. Patients were randomly assigned to either Group TAP (receiving TAP block) or Group ESP (receiving ESP block).
