Intracardiac bronchogenic cysts (IBCs) are very rare. To date, only a few cases of IBC have been reported in the literature. We report a case of a bronchogenic cyst that arose from the interatrial septum in a 42-year-old man who presented with symptoms of palpitation. A unilocular cystic lesion of the heart was found initially on echocardiography and subsequently on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The diagnosis was further confirmed by histopathology after surgical resection. Multimodality imaging played a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of such rare lesions.

Multimodal deep-learning model using pre-treatment endoscopic images and clinical information to predict efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Department of Surgery, Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine, 1-1 Seiryo-Machi, Aoba-Ku, Sendai, Miyagi, 980-8574, Japan.
Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is standard for advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, though often ineffective. Therefore, predicting the response to chemotherapy before treatment is desirable. However, there is currently no established method for predicting response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Movie-watching is a central aspect of our lives and an important paradigm for understanding the brain mechanisms behind cognition as it occurs in daily life. Contemporary views of ongoing thought argue that the ability to make sense of events in the 'here and now' depend on the neural processing of incoming sensory information by auditory and visual cortex, which are kept in check by systems in association cortex. However, we currently lack an understanding of how patterns of ongoing thoughts map onto the different brain systems when we watch a film, partly because methods of sampling experience disrupt the dynamics of brain activity and the experience of movie-watching.

JMIR Med Educ
January 2025
Department of Medical Education, University of Idaho, 875 Perimeter Drive MS 4061, WWAMI Medical Education, Moscow, ID, 83844-9803, United States, 1 5092090908.
Background: Medical students often struggle to engage with and retain complex pharmacology topics during their preclinical education. Traditional teaching methods can lead to passive learning and poor long-term retention of critical concepts.
Objective: This study aims to enhance the teaching of clinical pharmacology in medical school by using a multimodal generative artificial intelligence (genAI) approach to create compelling, cinematic clinical narratives (CCNs).
Retinal Capillary Ischemia Following Migraine: A Case Report.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Unidade Local de Saúde de São João, Porto, PRT.
Migraine, a neurological disorder often accompanied by symptoms such as visual disturbances, nausea, and photophobia, involves complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors, while vascular factors are also implicated, influenced by both genetic predisposition and environmental triggers. This case report discusses a 41-year-old male with a history of migraine with visual aura, presenting with sudden left-eye visual loss. Comprehensive ophthalmologic examination revealed a central scotoma, while multimodal imaging, including spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), showed focal alterations in the outer plexiform layer.

Heliyon
January 2025
Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Israel.
Objective: Pigmentary posterior vitreous detachment (PVD), referred to as "black PVD," is a rare entity describing PVD along with pigment dispersion in the vitreous. There are a few case reports describing pigmentary PVD, yet the association between pigmentary PVD and uveal and optic disc tumors was not described before. The aim of this study was to report the clinical features of patients with pigmentary PVD associated with these tumors.
