The article presents data concerning clinical significance of interleukin 6, hepcidin-25 and its predecessor prohepcidin in differentiated diagnostic of anemic syndrome. The sampling of 192 workers of the oncologic center undergoing annual dispensarization was examined. The genuine reference values for immune enzyme (interleukin 6, hepcidin-25, prohepcidin, soluble receptors of transferrin, ferritin, erythropoietin) techniques are presented. The analysis of results demonstrated that values of interleukin 6, hepcidin-25, prohepcidin can be applied as additional diagnostic criteria of anemic syndrome and especially in differentiated diagnostic of anemia of chronic disease with functional iron deficiency. The carried out study is a new perspective direction of modern concept of iron metabolism in patients with anemic syndrome.

Objective: Global per capita alcohol consumption is increasing, posing significant socioeconomic and medical challenges also due to alcohol-related traumatic injuries but also its biological effects. Trauma as a leading cause of death in young adults, is often associated with an increased risk of complications, such as sepsis and multiple organ failure, due to immunological imbalances. Regulatory T cells play a crucial role in maintaining immune homeostasis by regulating the inflammatory response.

Aim of this study was to proof the concept of optimizing the contrast between prostate cancer (PC) and healthy tissue by DWI post-processing using a quadrature method. DWI post-processing was performed on 30 patients (median age 67 years, prostate specific antigen 8.0 ng/ml) with PC and clear MRI findings (PI-RADS 4 and 5).

To retrospectively develop and validate an interpretable deep learning model and nomogram utilizing endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) images to predict pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs). Following confirmation via pathological examination, a retrospective analysis was performed on a cohort of 266 patients, comprising 115 individuals diagnosed with PNETs and 151 with pancreatic cancer. These patients were randomly assigned to the training or test group in a 7:3 ratio.

A paediatric patient presented with periorbital oedema and fever. Initially, there was low suspicion for cavernous sinus thrombosis and orbital cellulitis due to the presence of full extraocular movements. However, given worsening bilateral periorbital oedema, lethargy and sepsis, neuroimaging was performed demonstrating inflammation and enhancement of the leptomeninges and left cavernous sinus, and raising concern for cavernous sinus thrombosis in the setting of orbital cellulitis.
