Incidence of fall-from-height injuries and predictive factors for severity.
J Osteopath Med
January 2025
McAllen Department of Trauma, South Texas Health System, McAllen, TX, USA.
Context: The injuries caused by falls-from-height (FFH) are a significant public health concern. FFH is one of the most common causes of polytrauma. The injuries persist to be significant adverse events and a challenge regarding injury severity assessment to identify patients at high risk upon admission.

January 2025
Department of Oncology, Cancer Center, Southern Medical University Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of low-dose radiotherapy (LDR) for postoperative local chest wall recurrence of breast cancer.
Methods: The records of 52 patients with postoperative local chest wall recurrent breast cancer treated at our cancer center from January 2019 to December 2022. The t-test was used to compare the means of the LDR group and non LDR group.
A 27-Year-Old Japanese Woman Presenting with Left Chest Wall Pain Due to Palpable and Visible Sclerosing Superficial Thrombophlebitis (Mondor's Disease).

Department of General Medicine, Juntendo University Faculty of Medicine, Bunkyo, Tokyo, Japan.
BACKGROUND Mondor's disease (MD), or sclerosing superficial thrombophlebitis of the veins of the anterior thoracic wall, is a rare condition of unknown cause that usually involves the superior epigastric vein, producing a visible and palpable Mondor cord. This report describes a 27-year-old Japanese woman presenting with left chest wall pain due to palpable and visible sclerosing superficial thrombophlebitis. CASE REPORT We present the case of a 27-year-old Japanese woman who presented with 8 days of left chest wall and upper abdominal pain.

Department of Heart Surgery, East Slovak Institute for Cardiovascular Diseases, Ondavská 8, Košice, 040 12, Slovakia.
Background: The left internal thoracic artery (LITA) has been widely accepted as the standard for revascularizing the left anterior descending artery during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery. However, in 10-20% of cases, the LITA may lead to unsecured side branches to the chest wall, particularly the lateral costal artery (LCA), potentially resulting in postoperative chest angina.
Case Presentation: We report the case of a 58-year-old patient who experienced persistent angina eight months after having undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) due to the steal phenomenon caused by a thick lateral costal artery (LCA).
Fluid-structure-growth modeling in ascending aortic aneurysm: capability to reproduce a patient case.

Article Synopsis
- Predicting the growth of ascending aortic aneurysms (AscAA) is complex due to factors like aortic shape, tissue behavior, and blood flow.
- The study uses a flow-structural growth and remodeling (FSG) model to simulate AscAA growth, starting with an initial tissue injury and using blood flow data from simulations to guide the model.
- The findings suggest that adjusting model parameters, such as the direction of blood flow and tissue tension, significantly affects growth patterns, and this approach could be used for further patient-specific predictions in clinical settings.
