The study assessed the epidemiological frequency and prognostic impact of new-onset cancer as an additional net adverse clinical outcome in patients after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), considering its potential clinical significance alongside classical endpoints. This study was designed as a single-center observational study, including 1285 consecutive patients who were diagnosed as STEMI patients as the subject, and the frequency and prognosis of new-onset cancer after STEMI onset were assessed. The incidence of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and bleeding were analyzed as classical endpoints. Throughout an average of a 1241.4 days observation period, cancers were observed in 7.0% of patients (n = 90), showing development at a constant rate throughout this period (incidence rate, 0.06/1000 person-years). The average duration from STEMI onset to cancer diagnosis was 1371.4 days. Death, MI, or stroke were observed in 21.3%, 4.0%, 6.5%, and 12.8%, giving incidence rates of 0.18, 0.03, 0.06, and 0.11/1000 person-years, respectively. Long-term mortality was higher in patients with newly diagnosed cancer than in patients without cancer (36.7% vs. 20.1%, < 0.01). Cancer after STEMI should be considered as an additional major adverse clinical event because of its high incidence, constant development, and high mortality in comparison to classical endpoints.

Aims: Knowledge of the effects of sex in cardio-oncology is limited, particularly in patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). This study aims to evaluate the influence of gender differences on the incidence of cardiovascular toxicity in patients with CML.
Methods: The study population consisted of 148 patients (45% women, mean age: 58 ± 14.

Background: The effects of acute kidney injury (AKI) on liver-related outcomes in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remain unclear. The study aimed to evaluate the association between AKI with liver-related mortality and complications in patients with HBV infection.
Methods: The multicenter, retrospective cohort study included Chinese adults with HBV infection from 24 regional central hospitals between January 2000 and December 2022.

Rathke's cleft cysts (RCCs) are benign, cystic lesions that account for less than 5% of cases in the pediatric population. While asymptomatic RCCs often require only conservative management, symptomatic cases may necessitate surgical intervention. Advances in surgical techniques have improved the safety of these procedures.

The leucine-rich glioma-inactivated protein 1 (LGI1) antibody-related autoimmune encephalitis can occur alone or in the setting of a malignancy and manifest with faciobrachial dystonic seizures (FBDS), cognitive decline, hyponatremia, and neuropsychiatric disorders. The importance of differentiating this entity from acute delirium cannot be overemphasized. This review provides a detailed account of a 71-year-old man with previous diagnosis of lung cancer who presented with subacute onset behavioural changes, urinary retention, and FBDS.
