Iatrogenic acute dissection of the ascending aorta is a serious but rare complication of cardiac catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Although treatment of ascending aortic dissection may require surgical repair, stenting at the origin of the dissection area may be sufficient in aortocoronary dissection (AD) following PCI. Described is the case of a 64-year-old female patient who was treated with PCI for a critical lesion of the right coronary artery (RCA). Immediate stenting at the source of the dissection was sufficient to repair the RCA lesions and successfully seal the site of retrograde propagation of the dissection. The ascending aortic dissection was monitored with computed tomography and the dissection was spontaneously repaired within 72 hours.

Objectives: To assess the usefulness of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in patients with early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
Materials And Methods: Seventy-five patients (mean age 62 years) diagnosed with cT1-2 N0 underwent SLNB with Tc, lymphoscintigraphy/SPECT-CT, and gamma probe detection with intraoperative histological examination of the resected sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). Elective neck dissection was performed during the same surgical procedure of primary tumor resection when malignant deposits were detected microscopically.

Variations in the development of carpal bones are uncommon, with the scaphoid bone typically forming from the fusion of the os centrale carpi and the radial chondrification center during embryogenesis. A bipartite scaphoid is a rare congenital disorder that occurs when these ossification centers fail to fuse, with a prevalence ranging from 0.1% to 0.

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies enable dissecting the tissue architecture in spatial context. To perceive the global contextual information of gene expression patterns in tissue, the spatial dependence of cells must be fully considered by integrating both local and non-local features by means of spatial-context-aware. However, the current ST integration algorithm ignores for ST dropouts, which impedes the spatial-aware of ST features, resulting in challenges in the accuracy and robustness of microenvironmental heterogeneity detecting, spatial domain clustering, and batch-effects correction.

dna2bit is an ultra-fast software specifically engineered for microbial genome analysis, particularly adept at calculating genome distances within metagenome and single amplified genome datasets. Distinguished from existing software such as Mash and Dashing, dna2bit employs feature hashing technique and Hamming distance to achieve enhanced speed and memory utilization, without sacrifice in the accuracy of average nucleotide identity calculations. dna2bit has promising applications in various domains such as average nucleotide identity approximation, metagenomic sequence clustering, and homology querying.

Angioplasty and stenting of brachiocephalic artery stenosis can be complicated by ischemic stroke, local hematoma, thromboses, or dissection of access vessels. However, hemodynamic instability has not been reported as a complication of this treatment. We report the case of an 83-year-old man who developed hypotension and bradycardia after brachiocephalic artery stenting.
