Pseudomyxoma retroperitonei secondary to appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma disguised as psoas abscess - A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Aga Khan University Hospital, Stadium Road, Karachi 74800, Pakistan. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- Appendiceal cancers, particularly mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, are rare and can cause serious complications like pseudomyxoma peritonei, leading to abdominal fluid accumulation called "jelly belly."
- A case of a young man with a persistent psoas abscess revealed mucinous adenocarcinoma with pseudomyxoma retroperitonei, emphasizing the need to consider malignancy in atypical abscesses.
- Early and accurate diagnosis is critical because these types of tumors can be misdiagnosed as common issues like abscesses, highlighting the importance of imaging and colonoscopy in identifying them.
Association Does Not Mean Causation, When Observational Data Were Misinterpreted as Causal: The Observational Interpretation Fallacy.
J Eval Clin Pract
February 2025
Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, IRCCS San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy.
Background: The differentiation between association and causation is a significant challenge in medical research, often further complicated by cognitive biases that erroneously interpret coincidental observational data as indicative of causality. Such misinterpretations can lead to misguided clinical guidelines and healthcare practice, potentially endangering patient safety and leading to inefficient use of resources.
Methods: We conducted an extensive search of PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases up to March 2024, identifying circumstances where associations from observational studies were incorrectly deemed causal.
Numerical Simulation Study on Predicting the Critical Icing Conditions of Aircraft Pitot Tubes.
Sensors (Basel)
November 2024
School of Power and Energy, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi'an 710072, China.
Aircraft pitot tubes are sophisticated instruments designed to detect airflow pressure and relay this information to onboard computers and flight instruments, enabling the calculation of airspeed through the measurement of total-static pressure differences. The formation of ice on aircraft pitot tubes can compromise the acquisition of airspeed data, misguide pilots, and potentially cause catastrophic flight control failures. This article introduces a predictive methodology for identifying critical conditions that lead to icing on aircraft pitot tubes.

December 2024
Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Background: Despite decades of pursuing health equity, racial and ethnic disparities persist in healthcare in America. For cancer specifically, one of the leading observed disparities is worse mortality among non-Hispanic Black patients compared to non-Hispanic White patients across the cancer care continuum. These real-world disparities are reflected in the data used to inform the decisions made to alleviate such inequities.

Front Mol Biosci
September 2024
CSF and Complexity Studies Form, University Goettingen, Goettingen, Germany.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diagnostics is characterized by the biologically relevant combination of analytes in order to obtain disease-related data patterns that enable medically relevant interpretations. The necessary change in knowledge bases such as barrier function as a diffusion/CSF flow model and immunological networks of B-cell clones and pleiotropic cytokines is considered. The biophysical and biological principles for data combination are demonstrated using examples from neuroimmunological and dementia diagnostics.
