Background: Co-existent pulmonary tuberculosis and lung cancer (PTB-LC) represent a unique disease entity often characterized by missed or delayed diagnosis. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and radiological features of patients diagnosed with PTB-LC.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with active PTB-LC (APTB-LC), inactive PTB-LC (IAPTB), and LC alone without PTB between 2010 and 2022 at our institute were retrospectively collected and 1:1:1 matched based on gender, age, and time of admission.

Nocardia spp are ubiquitous, gram-positive, variably acid-fast, branching and beaded filamentous, facultative intracellular bacteria that are resistant to phagocytosis and can cause localized or systemic disease in a variety of mammals, including humans, as well as in birds, fish and reptiles. Seventeen pet domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) were diagnosed with nocardiosis by several methods including cytological evaluation, histopathology, Ziehl-Neelsen staining and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). All except two ferrets were 2 years old or older at the time of clinical presentation.

: Examinations of procalcitonin (PCT) and Ki-67 expression levels in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients who have undergone liver transplantation (LT) through immunohistochemical analyses of tumor tissue may reveal the biological characteristics of the tumor, thus informing the selection of HCC patients for LT. : Hepatectomy specimens from 86 HCC patients who underwent LT were obtained and analyzed immunohistochemically for the expression of PCT and Ki-67. The percentage and intensity of PCT staining, as well as the percentage of Ki-67 expression, were assessed for each patient.

Aims: Exploring fibrosis index-4 (FIB-4)'s predictive value for HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in assessing recurrence following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with HBV-related HCC.
Methods: HBV-related HCC patients who underwent SBRT were retrospectively enrolled from March 2012 to March 2020. Patients were divided into recurrence and non-recurrence groups based on the HCC recurrence situation.
