When the heart and tumours intertwine: pulmonary hypertension associated with a neuroendocrine tumour-a case report.
Eur Heart J Case Rep
January 2025
Department of Interventional Cardiology, Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins, EsSalud, 490, Jesús María, 15072 Lima, Perú.
Background: Pulmonary hypertension caused by extrinsic pulmonary vascular compression secondary to mediastinal neuroendocrine tumours is a very rare condition, posing a diagnostic challenge. There is no clear consensus regarding the best treatment strategy due to the lack of clinical data, leading to poor prognoses for these patients.
Case Summary: We present the case of a 38-year-old man hospitalized with signs of pulmonary hypertension and acute heart failure.
Factors Associated with Clinically Significant Extrinsic Compression on Gastroduodenal Endoscopy.
Dig Dis Sci
January 2025
Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Severance Hospital, Yonsei University College of Medicine, 50-1 Yonsei-Ro, Seodaemun-Gu, Seoul, 03722, Republic of Korea.
Background: Although clinicians frequently encounter incidentally detected gastroduodenal extrinsic compressive lesions (GDECLs) on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE), the optimal management approach for GDECLs has not been fully established. This study aimed to stratify and identify important factors associated with clinically significant GDECLs that require regular follow-up or further treatment.
Methods: Between June 2007 and December 2015, a total of 73 patients with suspected GDECLs on UGE at Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong were identified and studied retrospectively.

Tuberculosis (TB) continues to pose a significant health challenge globally and in Portugal. Diagnostic challenges persist, especially in infants, where TB often presents with atypical symptoms. A previously healthy three-month-old male infant from Vila Nova de Famalicão, Portugal, was admitted with cough, rhinorrhea, respiratory distress, and high-grade fever.

December 2024
Department of Radiology and Medical Informatics, University of Geneva, 1202 Geneva, Switzerland.
Objectives: Clinical trials (CTs) are essential for improving patient care by evaluating new treatments' safety and efficacy. A key component in CT protocols is the study population defined by the eligibility criteria. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of large language models (LLMs) in encoding eligibility criterion information to support CT-protocol design.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons
December 2024
Department of Neurosurgery, Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island.
Background: Rotational vertebral artery occlusion, or bow hunter's syndrome (BHS), is a rare but clinically important cause of vertebrobasilar insufficiency. Extrinsic compression of the artery is usually caused by osteophytes, fibrous bands, or lateral disc herniation and typically occurs in the setting of anatomical variations, leading to dynamic compromise of the posterior circulation. Neoplastic causes of BHS are rare.
