Objective: To compare the efficacy of computed tomography enterography and magnetic resonance enterography in diagnosing small intestinal diseases.
Methods: The retrospective study comparing computed tomography enterography and magnetic resonance enterography for diagnosing diseases related to small intestine was conducted at Department of Radiology, Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital, Shandong, China, from July 2012 to February 2014. The efficacy of computed tomography enterography and magnetic resonance enterography results were evaluated for randomly-selected cases to compare the location and characteristics of small intestinal diseases together with small bowel endoscopy and clinical pathology observations.
Results: Of the 30 patients in the study, 19(63.3%) were males and 11 (36.7%) were females with an overall mean age of 33.6±19.2 years (range: 24-67 years). the clinical diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography enterography and magnetic resonance enterography was 24(80%) and 21(70%) cases respectively (p>0.05).
Conclusions: Computed tomography enterography and magnetic resonance enterography are two techniques that complement each other for diagnostic purposes.

Background: Assessing the endothelialization of occlusive devices noninvasively remains a challenge. Cardiac computed tomography angiography (CTA) can be employed to evaluate device endothelialization based on contrast uptake within the occluder.
Objective: This study examined device endothelialization using cardiac CTA and investigated the pathological associations.

Orbital cellulitis happens when the region behind the orbital septum is affected. It consists an urgency because of its potential risks of complications, such as vision loss, cavernous sinus thrombosis, or Lemierre Syndrome. This article reports a case of a subperiosteal and orbital cellulitis, which had a periapical lesion in the left first molar as it´s focus.

Rationale: The occurrence of refractory small cell lung cancer (rSCLC) with pancreatic metastasis is a relatively rare clinical condition, which is typically accompanied by a poor prognosis and rapid disease progression.
Patient Concerns: A 65-year-old male farmer from China was diagnosed with limited-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) 8 months ago. Following 6 cycles of EP chemotherapy, the patient's tumor response showed partial relief.
Comparative genomic analysis unveiling the mutational landscape associated with premalignant lesions and early-stage gastric cardia cancer.

Department of Endoscopy, The Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University, Shijiazhuang, China.
This study enrolled 10 patients diagnosed with premalignant lesions and early-stage gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA), confirmed through endoscopic examination. These patients were subjected to next-generation sequencing (NGS) using a customized 1123-gene panel to identify genetic alterations and signaling pathways. The results were compared to stage IIB to IV GCA samples from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) and a cohort of Hong Kong patients.
