Multiple spontaneous visceral arterial dissections are an infrequent occurrence. The etiology, risk factors and natural history of these dissections have not been elucidated, and the optimal therapeutic strategy has not been established. We report a rare case of multiple spontaneous visceral arterial dissections involving the celiac artery, splenic artery, superior mesenteric artery, and right renal artery in a patient with Tolosa-Hunt syndrome on short-term corticosteroid therapy. The patient was subjected to conservative treatment and endovascular repair, achieving good clinical and radiological outcomes during the long-term follow-up period.

Defective boron nitride aerogels by salt template synthesis: A green adsorbent for tetracycline removal.

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) exhibits unique application potential in water purification due to its large specific surface area, high porosity, and chemical inertness. Designing adsorbents with highly active adsorption sites is one effective method to improve their adsorption capacities. In this study, porous h-BN aerogels containing multiple defect types (DP-BN) were synthesized by using salt templates.

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Odense University Hospital, Odense, Denmark.
Background: Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHD), a rare genetic disease characterized by multiple pulmonary cysts, can lead to spontaneous pneumothorax, cutaneous hamartomas, renal cysts, and renal cell cancer. The overall aim of this study was to assess clinical characteristics of patients with BHD-emphasizing on trends in pulmonary function patterns.
Methods: By use of data from electronic patient journals, we conducted a retrospective cohort study on clinical characteristics and pulmonary function tests (PFT) from patients with BHD, who were clinically followed-up in a Danish tertiary referral center for rare and interstitial lung diseases.
Biomechanics of flail chest injuries: tidal volume and respiratory work changes in multiple segmental rib fractures.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg

Julius Wolff Institute, Berlin Institute of Health at Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Augustenburger Platz 1, 13353, Berlin, Germany.
Background: Flail chest (FC) injuries are segmental osseous injuries of the thorax that typically result from high-energy blunt trauma and regularly occur in multiple trauma (MT) patients. FC injuries are associated with paradoxical chest wall movements and, thus, have a high risk of respiratory insufficiency or even death. An increasing number of studies recommend an early surgical stabilization of FC injuries, but a definite trigger that would indicate surgery has, thus far, not been identified.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare cystic lung disease that causes progressive pulmonary damage. It typically affects young reproductive-age females with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). The clinical manifestations of LAM result from the progressive invasion of abnormal smooth muscle cells into lung parenchyma, lymphatics, or pulmonary vasculature.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, The First Bethune Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin Province, China.
Purpose: Left atrial thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast (LAT/SEC) are widely recognized as significant contributors to cardiogenic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). This study aimed to construct and validate an interpretable predictive model of LAT/SEC risk in NVAF patients using machine learning (ML) methods.
Methods: Electronic medical records (EMR) data of consecutive NVAF patients scheduled for catheter ablation at the First Hospital of Jilin University from October 1, 2022, to February 1, 2024, were analyzed.
