The value of non-punctate echogenic foci in the ultrasonic diagnosis of thyroid nodules.
Endocrine
January 2025
Department of General Surgery, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital, Tianjin, China.
Purpose: To evaluate the diagnostic value of different subtypes of non-punctate echogenic foci in thyroid malignancy.
Methods: Retrospective research of 342 thyroid nodules with calcification was performed. The echogenic foci were divided into punctate echogenic foci (type I) and non-punctate echogenic foci (type II), and type II were further divided into four subtypes: macrocalcification (type IIa), continuous peripheral calcification (type IIb), discontinuous peripheral calcification (type IIc) and isolated calcification (type IId).
Atrial Functional Mitral Regurgitation: Definition, Mechanisms, and Treatment Perspectives.
Curr Cardiol Rep
January 2025
Hasselt University, Faculty of Medicine and Life Sciences / Limburg Clinical Research Centre, Agoralaan, Diepenbeek, Belgium.
Purpose Of Review: This review aims to explore the complex interplay between atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR), atrial fibrillation (AF), and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The goal is to define these conditions, examine their underlying mechanisms, and discuss treatment perspectives, particularly addressing diagnostic challenges.
Recent Findings: Recent research highlights the rising prevalence of AFMR, now accounting for nearly one-third of significant mitral regurgitation cases.
Updates on Methods for Body Composition Analysis: Implications for Clinical Practice.
Curr Obes Rep
January 2025
Metabolism and Body Composition, Pennington Biomedical Research Center, Baton Rouge, LA, 70808, USA.
Background: Recent technological advances have introduced novel methods for measuring body composition, each with unique benefits and limitations. The choice of method often depends on the trade-offs between accuracy, cost, participant burden, and the ability to measure specific body composition compartments.
Objective: To review the considerations of cost, accuracy, portability, and participant burden in reference and emerging body composition assessment methods, and to evaluate their clinical applicability.
Are there atypical sites of IgG4 related disease in head and neck region? Personal experience and literature review.
Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, IRCSS AOU San Martino, University of Genoa, Largo Rosanna Benzi 10, 16132, Genoa, Italy.
Purpose: Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a complex systemic fibroinflammatory condition with different clinical manifestations affecting multiple organ systems. Despite its rarity, the disease presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its mimicry of malignancies and other immune-mediated disorders. The 2019 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism Classification Criteria for IgG4-Related Disease is the current state of art to confirm the diagnosis of IgG4-RD even in the absence of histological analysis.

Acta Neurochir (Wien)
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Sanjay Gandhi Postgraduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Lucknow, 226014, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background: Reaching parenchymal segments of the lateral lenticulostriate artery (LSA) perforators, which represent the medial resection limit in insular gliomas (IG), remains a challenge. The currently described methods are indirect and sometimes, imprecise.
Methods: We report an antegrade direct skeletonization technique to identify these tiny arteries at the medial end of IGs with an illustrative case of grade 2 astrocytoma.
