Clin Case Rep

Department of Respiratory Medicine Ohara Healthcare Foundation, Kurashiki Central Hospital Okayama Japan.

Published: August 2024

When the chest radiograph of a young patient shows lung hyperlucency, it is important to obtain a detailed clinical history of any previous episodes of childhood infection. Previous chest radiographs should be reviewed to determine whether the condition is congenital or acquired, and thus assist in a diagnosis of SJMS.

Background: The metal oxide nanoparticles possess unique properties such as biological compatibility, superior reactivity, and capacity to develop reactive oxygen species, due to this they have drawn significant interest in cancer treatment. The various MONPs such as cerium oxide, Copper oxide, Iron oxide, Titanium dioxide, and Zinc oxide have been investigated for several types of cancers including brain, breast, cervical, colon, leukemia, liver, lung, melanoma, ovarian, and prostate cancers. However, traditional physiochemical synthetic methods for MONPs commonly include toxic materials, a major concern that raises questions regarding their biocompatibility and safety.

Central Victoria Veterinary Hospital, VCA Canada, 760 Roderick Street, Victoria, British Columbia V8X 2R3 (Xie, Seguin, Brownlee, Boller); Department of Veterinary Clinical and Diagnostic Sciences, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Calgary, 3280 Hospital Drive NW, Calgary, Alberta T2N 4Z6 (Boller).

A 9-year-old neutered male cairn terrier dog was initially presented because of inappetence, increased respiratory effort, and occasional coughing. A cavitary lung mass was diagnosed using CT and removed with lung lobectomy. Histopathology of the mass revealed necrosuppurative inflammation with acid-fast rod bacteria in macrophages, with spp.

Resistance to the currently available treatment paradigms is one of the main factors that contributes to poor outcomes in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Novel targeted therapy approaches might enhance the patient's treatment outcome and are urgently needed for this malignancy. While chimeric-antigen receptor (CAR)-based adoptive immunotherapy displays a promising treatment strategy for liquid cancers, their use against cervical cancer is largely unexplored.

The prevailing belief is that third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (TGET) outperform first-generation EGFR-TKIs (FGET) in managing advanced-stage EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, this standpoint lacks substantiation in evidence-based medicine. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy and adverse effects (AEs) of these two categories.

There is an increasing requirement for new therapeutic approaches to address lung inflammation caused by COVID-19. Recent evidence suggests that statins may reduce mortality in patients with respiratory infections. This study aimed to investigate the impact of statin use on COVID-19 outcomes among hospitalized patients at Ohud Hospital and King Salman Medical City (KSMC) in Madinah, Saudi Arabia.
