Building insights into the structure-performance relationship of catalysts has been emphasized recently. However, it remains a challenge due to catalysts' various and complex structures, especially the easily overlooked influence of the support material. Here, we reveal the crucial influences of boron introduction on synthesizing 3D carbon nanotube monoliths with embedded multistate Co metals, i.

Pulmonary artery choriocarcinoma mimicking pulmonary thromboembolism: a case report.

Transl Cancer Res

December 2024

Department of Geriatric Respiratory Disease, Institute of Guangdong Provincial Geriatrics, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences), Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China.

Background: Primary choriocarcinoma of the pulmonary artery is an exceedingly rare malignant neoplasm, which is often misdiagnosed due to its nonspecific clinical presentation. While this condition is characterized by the presence of trophoblastic cells, typically associated with gestational trophoblastic diseases, we encountered a case occurring in an extragenital location. The rarity of such tumors makes it challenging for clinicians to consider them in differential diagnosis, especially when the initial symptoms mimic more common conditions such as pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE).

Indolent Angiomatoid Fibrous Histiocytoma Mimicking a Benign Cystic Tumor.

Diagnostics (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Interdisciplinary Graduate School of Medicine, University of Yamanashi, Chuo 409-3898, Yamanashi, Japan.

Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare intermediate tumor that is often difficult to diagnose radiologically and pathologically. Herein, we report a case of AFH in the knee that was initially misdiagnosed as a cystic lesion. The tumor was first identified eight years earlier during the patient's initial visit, when plain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed, leading to a diagnosis of a cystic lesion.

Torsion of Extralobar Pulmonary Sequestration Presenting as Posterior Mediastinal Mass.

Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep

December 2024

Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital, Daejeon, Republic of Korea.

Torsion of extralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital anomalous condition that can manifest with various symptoms, including abdominal pain. However, a masslike lesion in the mediastinum can be easily overlooked when the clinician focuses only on abdominal pain. By using magnetic resonance imaging, a few features specific to the torsion of extralobar pulmonary sequestration can be identified, and that information will be helpful.
