Objective: to characterize hospitalizations for sensitive conditions to primary care of a regional hospital in the Federal District.
Method: this is a descriptive study, such as case series that considered users admitted between 2008 and 2012 in the Regional Hospital of Ceilândia. The selection of hospitalizations was based on the Brazilian List, and the data were obtained from the Hospital information System. The descriptive statistics was used in the data processing and analysis.
Results: ACSC (Ambulatory Care Sensitive Conditions) showed a growth tendency, mainly due to cerebrovascular diseases, lung diseases and infections in the kidney and urinary tract. Female and elderly patients showed a higher frequency of hospitalizations.
Conclusion: the results may help managers and health professionals to implement actions that aim higher solvability of primary care, and contribute to the systematization of nursing care and improved health care.

Spatial mapping of the HCC landscape identifies unique intratumoral perivascular-immune neighborhoods.

Background: HCC develops in the context of chronic inflammation; however, the opposing roles the immune system plays in both the development and control of tumors are not fully understood. Mapping immune cell interactions across the distinct tissue regions could provide greater insight into the role individual immune populations have within tumors.
Methods: A 39-parameter imaging mass cytometry panel was optimized with markers targeting immune cells, stromal cells, endothelial cells, hepatocytes, and tumor cells.
FAK inhibition delays liver repair after acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury by suppressing hepatocyte proliferation and macrophage recruitment.

Background: Overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), a commonly used antipyretic analgesic, can lead to severe liver injury and failure. Current treatments are only effective in the early stages of APAP-induced acute liver injury (ALI). Therefore, a detailed examination of the mechanisms involved in liver repair following APAP-induced ALI could provide valuable insights for clinical interventions.

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has gained attention in the medical field as a deep learning approach utilizing unlabeled data. The Jigsaw puzzle task in SSL enables models to learn both features of images and the positional relationships within images. In breast cancer diagnosis, radiologists evaluate not only lesion-specific features but also the surrounding breast structures.

This study aimed to investigate the cause of susceptibility underestimation in body quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and propose a water/fat separate reconstruction to address this issue. A numerical simulation was conducted using conventional QSM with/without body masking. The conventional method with body masking underestimated the susceptibility across all regions, whereas the method without body masking estimated an equivalent value to the ground truth.
