Background: The authors report the first case of thoracic interdural spinal cysts presenting as radiculopathy attributed to overdrainage-related cervical venous plexus enlargement. This case emphasizes the importance of considering interdural spinal cysts and cerebrospinal fluid overdrainage in the differential diagnosis of radiculopathy.
Observations: A 37-year-old male patient with a history of orthostatic headache presented with bilateral deltoid muscle atrophy consistent with C5 radiculopathy.

Mental health nurses care for patients with mental health and addiction problems. The particular nature of their job makes them prone to increased risk of depression. Timely use of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in a focus group of nurses yields significant results when it comes to minimizing vulnerability to depression risk.

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is becoming a valuable technique in gas-phase structural biology for identifying local structural motifs and conformations of biological molecules, such as peptides and proteins. This method involves labeling the biomolecule with two dyes, a donor dye and an acceptor dye, that are commonly charged rhodamines. Here we examine how different amino acid (AA) methyl esters linked to the dye via amide linkages can influence the dye transition energy and, consequently, the energy-transfer efficiency, using cryogenic ion fluorescence spectroscopy.

Background: The red cell distribution width (RDW) has been investigated as a predictive factor for complications and mortality in several critical illnesses, including cardiovascular diseases.
Objective: The current study aimed to assess the relationship of RDW with severity and in-hospital mortality in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Materials And Methods: A prospective hospital-based observational study was conducted at a tertiary care institute of Northern India.

Pulmonary amyloidosis is diagnosed by identifying amyloid deposits using Congo red stain (CR) and birefringence under polarized light. However, collagen fibers can also produce similar staining results, complicating diagnosis. We report a case of a 55-year-old male patient with lung opacities, initially suspected to have amyloidosis based on CR positivity and green birefringence.
