• Hydrometrocolpos is a rare congenital malformation of the female in neonate. • CA 19-9 and CA 125 are widely used as tumor markers, however several benign conditions are also known to increase levels. • Here we report a newborn with hydrometrocolpos due to distal vaginal atresia and elevated serum CA 19-9 and CA 125 levels.

Objective Heart failure (HF) is an important underrecognized complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Recent literature and recommendations support screening for HF among T2DM people attending the outpatient department (OPD) in non-emergency settings using a biomarker. The present study is a retrospective cross-sectional study that assesses the prevalence of screen positivity (S+) for undiagnosed HF among T2DM people (with normal electrocardiogram (ECG) and no history of heart disease) attending the OPD at a tertiary care center in India using N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP).

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on long-term outcomes and survival factors after surgery for invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (I-IPMN) over a 15-year period.
  • It included data from 125 surgeries, with only a 1.6% 90-day mortality rate but a significant overall morbidity rate of 44.4%.
  • Key survival indicators included jaundice, tumor size, lymph node status, margin status, and the need for venous resection, showing that early-stage resections lead to better long-term survival outcomes.

Background: Pancreatectomy with concomitant portomesenteric vein resection (PVR) enables patients with portomesenteric vein (PV) involvement to achieve radical resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, however, early recurrence (ER) is frequently observed.

Aim: To predict ER and identify patients at high risk of ER for individualized therapy.

Methods: Totally 238 patients undergoing pancreatectomy and PVR were retrospectively enrolled and were allocated to the training or validating cohort.
