Multimodality Imaging Supports Cardiac Lesion Diagnosis in Patient With Liver Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Cancer Rep (Hoboken)
December 2024
Vietnam National Heart Institute, Bach Mai Hospital, Hanoi, Vietnam.
Introduction: Nonbacterial thrombotic endocarditis (NBTE) is a rare cardiac manifestation in patients with advanced malignancies of the lungs, pancreas, gynecological system, and gastrointestinal tract. It is often confirmed postmortem by histopathological evidence of sterile platelet-fibrin deposits attached to the endocardium, most often on heart valves. To the best of our knowledge, our case is the first to report multiple heart lesions caused by the systemic effect of cholangiocarcinoma.

Introduction: We investigated whether the cerebellum develops neuropathology that correlates with well-accepted Alzheimer's disease (AD) neuropathological markers and cognitive status.
Methods: We studied cerebellar cytoarchitecture in a cohort (N = 30) of brain donors. In a larger cohort (N = 605), we queried whether the weight of the contents of the posterior fossa (PF), which contains primarily cerebellum, correlated with dementia status.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a significant risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Despite multiple studies reporting this connection, the mechanism by which T2D exacerbates AD is poorly understood. It is challenging to design studies that address co-occurring and comorbid diseases, limiting the number of existing evidence bases.

Rare protein-coding variants in , which are causal for all known forms of genetic prion disease, have been ruled out in all VPSPr cases to date, leading to suspicion that VPSPr could be caused by variants in other genes or by non-coding variation in or near . We performed exome sequencing and targeted sequencing of non-coding regions on genomic DNA from autopsy-confirmed VPSPr patients (N=67) in order to search for a possible genetic cause.

Pathology found during cadaveric dissection has been used to model integrative teaching methods for medical students at several institutions. Recent evidence has shown that pathology found during dissection can be used in the design of self-directed learning (SDL) activities with standards that are difficult to meet. This study presents a novel method for providing formative feedback, one of the most challenging aspects for LCME accreditation of SDL activities.
