AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that can occur intraventricularly, presenting diagnostic and management challenges. We describe a case of a 21-year-old male with no significant medical history who presented with intermittent headaches and vomiting, progressing to continuous symptoms. Neurological examination was unremarkable. Brain MRI revealed an isointense lesion in the occipital horn of the left lateral ventricle, diagnosed as an SFT. Surgical excision via a transcortical approach was successful, followed by postoperative radiotherapy. This case highlights the complexities in diagnosing and treating intraventricular SFTs, emphasizing the need for comprehensive evaluation and multimodal management strategies.

Isogenic Transplantation of Hybrid Artificial Pleural Tissue Consisting of Rat Cells and Polyglycolic Acid Nanofiber Sheet Induces Restoration of Mesothelial Defects in Rat Model.

Background: Impairment of the visceral pleura following thoracic surgery often leads to air leaks and intrathoracic adhesions. For preventing such complications, mesothelial cell proliferation at the pleural defects can be effective. To develop new materials for pleural defects restoration, we constructed a hybrid artificial pleural tissue (H-APLT) combining polyglycolic acid (PGA) nanofiber sheets with a three-dimensional culture of mesothelial cells and fibroblasts and evaluated its therapeutic efficacy in a rat pleural defect model.

Objectives: Most human brains exhibit left hemisphere asymmetry for planum temporale (PT) surface area and gray matter volume, which is interpreted as cerebral lateralization for language. Once considered a uniquely human feature, PT asymmetries have now been documented in chimpanzees and olive baboons. The goal of the current study was to further investigate the evolution of PT asymmetries in nonhuman primates.

Background: The location and size of necrotic lesions are important factors for collapse, The preserved angles (PAs) are divided into anterior preserved angle (APA) and lateral preserved angle (LPA), which could accurately measure the location of necrosis lesion. We used them to evaluate the effect of the location and size of necrotic lesions on collapse by finite element analysis, to offer a framework for evaluating the prognosis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in clinical settings.
Methods: 3 left hip models were constructed based on CT data.

An analysis of the handedness of the four members of the British rock band The Beatles is presented. Implications for the roles of the left and right hands in the playing of different musical instruments, for the roles of the left versus right hemispheres in song writing, and for the Beatle's legacy in popular culture are discussed.
