Artificial Intelligence in Diagnostic Breast Ultrasound: A Comparative Analysis of Decision Support Among Radiologists With Various Levels of Expertise.
Eur J Breast Health
January 2025
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Yeditepe University Faculty of Engineering, İstanbul, Turkey.
Objective: To investigate integrating an artificial intelligence (AI) system into diagnostic breast ultrasound (US) for improved performance.
Materials And Methods: Seventy suspicious breast mass lesions (53 malignant and 17 benign) from seventy women who underwent diagnostic breast US complemented with shear wave elastography, US-guided core needle biopsy and verified histopathology were enrolled. Two radiologists, one with 15 years of experience and the other with one year of experience, evaluated the images for breast imaging-reporting and data system (BI-RADS) scoring.
Inhibition of nitric oxide synthase transforms carotid occlusion-mediated benign oligemia into large cerebral infarction.

Department of neurology, Dongguk University Ilsan Hospital, Goyang 10326, Republic of Korea.
It remains unclear why unilateral proximal carotid artery occlusion (UCAO) causes benign oligemia in mice, yet leads to various outcomes (asymptomatic-to-death) in humans. We hypothesized that inhibition of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) both transforms UCAO-mediated oligemia into full infarction and expands pre-existing infarction. Using 900 mice, we i) investigated stroke-related effects of UCAO with/without intraperitoneal administration of the NOS inhibitor (NOSi) N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME, 400 mg/kg); ii) examined the rescue effect of the NO-donor, molsidomine (200 mg/kg at 30 minutes); and iii) tested the impact of antiplatelet medications.

Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Al-Bairuni University Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria.
Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common benign salivary gland tumor, primarily found in the parotid gland. Recurrences often extend into the parapharyngeal space (PPS), complicating management. This report presents a case of a recurrent giant PA in the PPS following a limited excision.

Int J Womens Health
December 2024
Sydney Women's Endosurgery Centre (SWEC), St George Hospital, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Objective: We aimed to explore the abnormal pathology findings in appendix specimens removed based on intraoperative abnormal appearance during elective surgery for benign gynaecological conditions by a minimally invasive gynaecologist, as well as the associated complication rate.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary referral surgical centre for benign gynaecological conditions between the years 2004-2023. It included patients who underwent appendicectomy by a trained minimally invasive gynaecologist based on observations during surgery for benign gynaecological conditions.
Long-term Efficacy of Prostatic Artery Embolization Alone Versus Prostatic Artery Embolization Followed by HoLEP for Large (> 80 cm) Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
Acad Radiol
December 2024
Department of Interventional Radiology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, 300 Guangzhou Road, Gulou District, Nanjing 210029, China (Z.-W.X., C.-G.Z., W.T., H.-B.S., S.L.). Electronic address:
Rationale And Objectives: To compare the long-term efficacy of prostatic artery embolization (PAE) with PAE followed by holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in patients with large prostatic volume (PV>80 cm), and to identify the appropriate population for PAE+HoLEP.
Methods: From March 2015 to December 2023, 208 consecutive BPH patients were enrolled into two groups: PAE monotherapy (Group A, n=168) and PAE followed by HoLEP (Group B, n=40). Differences in clinical and functional parameters between baseline and each follow-up point were compared.
