Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has increased sensitivity in detection of nonenhancing brain tumors and may show the extent of CNS neoplasia with greater detail than CT. Magnetic resonance images of the canine brain were acquired in two dogs with diffuse leptomeningeal and cerebral low grade astrocytoma. Abnormalities were identified with MR imaging when CT and CSF analysis were noncontributory. Changes seen with MR included decreased signal on T1-weighted images and increased signal on T2-weighted images consistent with vasogenic edema. Neither MR nor CT showed post-contrast enhancement. Magnetic resonance did not show the full extent of cellular infiltration, however. This was attributed to the diffuse submacroscopic distribution and absence of corresponding edema and contrast enhancement in certain regions of brain.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast, from diagnosis to management: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Pathology and Laboratories, University Hospital Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá, Bogotá, DC, Colombia.
Background: Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast is a rare subtype, constituting less than 3.5% of primary breast carcinomas. Despite being categorized as a type of triple-negative breast cancer, it generally has a favorable prognosis.

J Orthop Surg Res
January 2025
School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Musculoskeletal Health and Wiser Health Care Units, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of acromioclavicular (AC) joint and subacromial space imaging abnormalities in asymptomatic adults, with a secondary objective of comparing findings between asymptomatic and symptomatic shoulders within the same study populations.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review of studies examining shoulder imaging abnormalities detected by X-ray, ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in asymptomatic adults (PROSPERO registration CRD42018090041). This report focuses on AC joint and subacromial space abnormalities.
Significance of siderophore-producing cyanobacteria on enhancing iron uptake potentiality of maize plants grown under iron-deficiency.
Microb Cell Fact
January 2025
Department of Botany, Faculty of Science, Mansoura University, Mansoura, 35516, Egypt.
Background: In response to iron deficiency and other environmental stressors, cyanobacteria producing siderophores can help in ameliorating plant stress and enhancing growth physiological and biochemical processes. The objective of this work was to screen the potential of Arthrospira platensis, Pseudanabaena limnetica, Nostoc carneum, and Synechococcus mundulus for siderophore production to select the most promising isolate, then to examine the potentiality of the isolated siderophore in promoting Zea mays seedling growth in an iron-limited environment.
Results: Data of the screening experiment illustrated that Synechococcus mundulus significantly recorded the maximum highest siderophore production (78 ± 2%) while the minimum production was recorded by Nostoc carneum (24.
Factors associated with treatment response in chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis at a single center: a retrospective cohort study.
Pediatr Rheumatol Online J
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Rheumatology, Seattle Children's Hospital, 4800 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA, 98105, USA.
Background: NSAIDs are commonly used as first line therapy in chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) but are not effective for all patients. The objective of this study was to identify clinical variables associated with NSAID monotherapy response versus requiring second-line medication in a single-center cohort of patients with CNO.
Methods: The charts of children with CNO who attended a CNO clinic at a quaternary care center between 1/1/05 and 7/31/21 were retrospectively reviewed.
Cerebrovascular stenosis related to tyrosine kinase inhibitor for chronic myeloid leukemia: two illustrative cases.
BMC Neurol
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Gifu University Graduate School of Medicine, 1-1, Yanagido, Gifu, 501-1194, Japan.
Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) improve prognosis in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Nilotinib and ponatinib, second- and third-generation TKIs, respectively, have been reported to cause adverse vascular occlusive events such as myocardial infarction and peripheral arterial disease. However, little is known about the risk of cerebral infarction associated with severe cerebrovascular stenosis, which is a late complication of TKIs.
