Background: Several studies have shown that financial capacity constitutes a vital component of instrumental activities of daily living. However, there is insufficient research investigating the relationship between financial impairment, brain volume changes and cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, we examine the association between brain volume changes and financial capacity in cognitively unimpaired (CU) and mild cognitively impaired (MCI) individuals.

A 64-year-old woman underwent initial 18F-FDG PET/CT staging for a suspicious endometrial mass, which showed high uptake in the endometrial mass and a focal uptake in a known left thyroid nodule. Histology revealed a high-grade large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the endometrium with FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage Ib. Further explorations revealed a synchronous thyroid metastasis.

Background: Several methods for blindly positioning bronchial blockers (BBs) for one-lung ventilation (OLV) have been proposed. However, these methods do not reliably ensure accurate positioning and proper direction. Here, we developed a clinically applicable two-stage maneuver by modifying a previously reported one-stage maneuver for successful insertion of a BB at the appropriate depth and direction in patients requiring lung isolation where a flexible bronchoscope (FOB) is not applicable.

This study aimed to use LV-PSL for early identification of changes in LV structure and MW in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Methods: Seventy-two patients with ESRD were divided into two groups based on undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), namely the dialysis group (ESRD-D group) and non-dialysis group (ESRD-ND group).
