We report the case of a 54-year old man with slowly progressive symmetrical weakness of the proximal legs and atactic gait. The diagnostic work-up is reviewed. It revealed the diagnosis of a Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome(LEMS) and SIADH caused by a small cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Article Synopsis
- - Obesity rates, particularly severe obesity, have significantly increased globally, especially in the U.S., making it a leading risk factor for heart failure (HF) due to its harmful effects on heart health.
- - There's a curious "obesity paradox" where some HF patients with obesity may have better outcomes than those with lower body mass, but recent research suggests that weight loss might still benefit certain HF patients.
- - Despite this paradox, effective management strategies for obesity in HF patients are lacking, with long-term data needed to create concrete guidelines focusing on body composition.

Drug-delivery systems employing phytopharmaceuticals based on the leads in traditional knowledge offers not only an alternative but quicker and more economic strategy for drug development. Nanophytopharmaceuticals promise remarkable opportunities with the ability to overcome challenges associated with herbal medicines, such as low solubility and bioavailability, poor target specificity, and shelf life. extracts documented as Ropana (wound healer) in are a popular traditional remedy that is amiss in the modern system of medicine as it exhibits very poor biopharmaceutical properties.

Background: Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of malignant cells is a driving force of disease progression in human papillomavirus-negative (HPV-negative) head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC). Sustained hyper-activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) induces an invasion-promoting subtype of EMT (EGFR-EMT) characterized by a gene signature ("'EGFR-EMT_Signature'") comprising 5´-ectonucleotidase CD73. Generally, CD73 promotes immune evasion via adenosine (ADO) formation and associates with EMT and metastases.
