From its start in China in December 2019, infection by the new SARS-CoV2 spread fast all over the world. It can present as severe respiratory distress in the elderly or a vasculitis in a child, most of whom are typically completely asymptomatic. This makes infection detection based on clinical grounds exceedingly difficult. Lung ultrasound has become an important tool in diagnosis and follow-up of patient with COVID-19 infection.Here we review available, up to date literature on ultrasound use for COVID-19 suspected pediatric patients and contrast it to published findings in adult patients.

One-stage versus two-stage thoracoscopic surgery for synchronous bilateral pulmonary nodules: a propensity score-matched analysis.
World J Surg Oncol
January 2025
Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Friendship Hospital, No. 2 Yinghua East Road, Chaoyang District, 100029, Beijing, China.
Background: The aim of this study was to compare the surgical efficacy of one-stage and two-stage video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for bilateral multiple pulmonary nodules (BMPNs).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was made of 156 patients, 84 who underwent one-stage and 72 who underwent two-stage VATS for BMPNs at our department between January 2019 and December 2022. Perioperative and long-term outcomes were compared between the two groups using propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis.
Enhanced detection of mild cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease: a hybrid model integrating dual biomarkers and advanced machine learning.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex, progressive, and irreversible neurodegenerative disorder marked by cognitive decline and memory loss. Early diagnosis is the most effective strategy to slow the disease's progression. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is frequently viewed as a crucial stage before the onset of AD, making it the ideal period for therapeutic intervention.

Background: Hypoxia is associated with the onset of cardiovascular diseases including cardiac hypertrophy and pulmonary hypertension. HIF2 (hypoxia-inducible factor 2) signaling in the endothelium mediates pulmonary arterial remodeling and subsequent elevation of the right ventricular systolic pressure during chronic hypoxia. Thus, novel therapeutic opportunities for pulmonary hypertension based on specific HIF2 inhibitors have been proposed.

By combining radiotherapy with immunotherapy, the synergistic effects of these modalities not only bolster antitumor efficacy but also exacerbate lung injury. Consequently, developing a model capable of accurately predicting radiotherapy- and immunotherapy-related pneumonitis in lung cancer patients is a pressing need.

Purpose: Investigating the diagnosis and treatment of bilateral Chylothorax after neck lymph node dissection for thyroid cancer.
Methods: The clinical data of a patient with bilateral chylothorax after neck lymph node dissection for thyroid cancer were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed.
Results: The patient underwent a total thyroidectomy and left neck lymph node dissection, with no evidence of lymph fluid leakage observed during the operation.
