Purpose: To compare quantitative values and image quality between single-shot echo-planar imaging (SS-EPI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and two-dimensional turbo gradient- and spin-echo DWI with non-Cartesian BLADE trajectory (TGSE-BLADE DWI) in patients with epidermoid cyst.
Methods: Patients with epidermoid cyst who underwent both SS-EPI DWI and TGSE-BLADE DWI were included in this study. Two raters placed ROIs encircling the entire epidermoid cyst on SS-EPI DWI, and then on TGSE-BLADE DWI.

Background/objectives: The active straight leg raise requires intricate coordination between the hip, knee, pelvis, and spine. Despite its complexity, limited research has explored the relationship between lower limb raising velocity and trunk muscle motor control during an active straight leg raise in healthy individuals. This study aimed to explore the potential effects of increased lower limb raising velocity on core muscle contractions during active straight leg raises.

Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) are a group of conditions that present with varying degrees of microthrombi, thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, renal dysfunction, and neurological impairment. Etiologies can be primary, such as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), or secondary, such as due to systemic infections, malignancies, immune-mediated conditions, and hypertensive emergencies. In hypertensive emergencies, this presentation can occur from mechanical stress placed on red blood cells as they pass through narrowed arteries due to edema and microangiopathic changes within the vessels themselves.
