We hereby present a case of large cardiac tuberculoma which was thought to be a malignant mass on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The present case highlights that high index of suspicion is necessary to diagnose this rare entity especially in tuberculosis-endemic areas, or in those who have relevant past history of this condition.

Growth hormone (GH)-releasing hormone (GHRH), a hypothalamic peptide initially characterized for its role in GH regulation, has gained increasing attention due to its GH-independent action on peripheral physiology, including that of the cardiovascular system. While its effects on the peripheral vasculature are still under investigation, GHRH and synthetic agonists have exhibited remarkable receptor-mediated cardioprotective properties in preclinical models. GHRH and its analogs enhance myocardial function by improving contractility, reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and offsetting pathological remodeling.

Introduction: Cardiac Amyloidosis (CA) is characterised by amyloid fibril deposits causing heart failure (HF). Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is recognised as a potential red flag for CA, but the association remains underexplored in large-scale studies.
Methods: This nationwide registry-based cohort study in Denmark included subjects ≥60 years with a history of LSS surgery.

Introduction: In recent years, the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, including machine learning, deep learning, and large language models, has significantly supported clinical work. Concurrently, the integration of artificial intelligence with the medical field has garnered increasing attention from medical experts. This study undertakes a dynamic and longitudinal bibliometric analysis of AI publications within the healthcare sector over the past three decades to investigate the current status and trends of the fusion between medicine and artificial intelligence.

Background: Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) is a complex form of dysautonomia that presents with abnormal autonomic reflexes upon standing, leading to symptoms such as lightheadedness, tachycardia, fatigue, and cognitive impairment. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought renewed attention to POTS due to its overlap with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC). Studies have found that a substantial percentage of COVID-19 survivors exhibit symptoms resembling POTS, elevating POTS diagnoses to previously unseen levels.
