Breast cancer is the most common visceral neoplasm which metastatizes in skin. Skin infiltration by breast cancer may appear as various types of neoplastic/inflammatory lesions, including plaques, pigskin-like areas, scirrhous morphea-like lesions, nodules, zosteriform lesions, and papulovescicles. An unusual form of cutaneous infiltration involving a mammary region bearing a post-mastectomy surgical skin scar is herein described: interestingly, such a cutaneous cancer involvement could not be included in the above classification, because it merely consisted of red-purple areas dealing with small telangiectasias, without any sign of inflammation.

Inflammation of the pituitary gland can be primary (without another underlying cause) or secondary (associated with a systemic inflammatory condition). Primary hypophysitis is very rare, among which xanthomatous hypophysitis as a histological type is extremely unusual. A woman in her late 50s presented with recurrent pituitary lesions over 20 years.

[FeFe]-hydrogenases are enzymes that catalyze the redox interconversion of H and H using a six-iron active site, known as the H-cluster, which consists of a structurally unique [2Fe] subcluster linked to a [4Fe-4S] subcluster. A set of enzymes, HydG, HydE, and HydF, are responsible for the biosynthesis of the [2Fe] subcluster. Among them, it is well established that HydG cleaves tyrosine into CO and CN and forms a mononuclear [Fe(II)(Cys)(CO)(CN)] complex.

is a ubiquitous organism classified as a nontuberculous mycobacterium that rarely causes indolent skin or soft-tissue infections, especially in immunocompromised patients. Given the rarity of infection, diagnosis can be difficult because cutaneous lesions may be considered a worsening of the underlying disease or a benign condition. Here, we report a case of a rapidly progressing cutaneous infection in a patient with nephrotic syndrome.

The Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) and Landau-Lifshitz (LL) equations play an essential role for describing the dynamics of magnetization in solids. While a quantum analog of the LL dynamics has been proposed in [Phys. Rev.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders commonly characterized by excessive production of blood cell lineages. The JAK2 V617F mutation plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of these conditions, often leading to thrombotic complications. Here, we present the case of a 21-year-old man who presented with acute abdominal pain and was found to have portal vein thrombosis with splenomegaly.
