Taking advantage of an interesting clinical scenario, we want to introduce a discussion about fatality in our daily practice and the need to accept that. An 80 year-old man with non-traumatic spontaneous bleeding tendency came to the clinics. Although being on warfarin as a consequence of primary thrombotic prophylaxis due to an atrial fibrillation, full assessment was performed. Not only the rare entity found on him, but also the severe complication that happened afterwards challenged clinicians and led them to risky treatment options.

Background: Although an intracranial aneurysm (IA) is widespread and fatal, few drugs can be used to prevent its rupture. This study explored the molecular mechanism and potential targets of IA rupture through bioinformatics methods.
Methods: The gene expression matrices of GSE13353, GSE122897, and GSE15629 were downloaded.

The problem at hand is the significant global health challenge posed by children's diseases, where timely and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and management. Conventional diagnosis techniques are typical, use tedious processes and generate inaccurate results since they are executed by human beings and cause delays in treatment that can be fatal. Considering these and other shortcomings there exists a need to have more efficient and accurate solutions based on artificial intelligence.

Objectives: Yellow fever-associated viscerotropic disease (YEL-AVD) is a rare but serious complication arising from administration of live-attenuated yellow fever vaccine to individuals with risk factors such as thymectomy. At present there is no evidence-based treatment, and case fatality rates are high. Sofosbuvir, an NS5B nucleotide inhibitor, has activity against yellow fever virus in vitro and in vivo.

Skin cancer is considered globally as the most fatal disease. Most likely all the patients who received wrong diagnosis and low-quality treatment die early. Though if it is detected in the early stages the patient has fairly good chance and the aforementioned diseases can be cured.
