Distinguishing between primary adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) within non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumours holds significant management implications. We assessed the performance of radiomics-based models in distinguishing primary there is from SCC presenting as lung nodules on Computed Tomography (CT) scans. We studied individuals with histopathologically proven adenocarcinoma or SCC type NSCLC tumours, detected as lung nodules on Chest CT.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between water iodine levels and the prevalence of thyroid disease in pregnant women residing in areas with high water iodine levels without access to iodized salt.

We present the case of a 42-year-old Indian male with prurigo nodularis, exhibiting multiple verrucous, brownish-black nodules on the left lower and right upper extremities, with milder involvement of the right lower extremity. The lesions were asymmetrically distributed in a near-linear pattern, with prominent white hyperkeratosis and associated moderate pruritus and paresthesia. Differential diagnoses included pemphigoid nodularis, verruca vulgaris, and hypertrophic lichen planus, with a biopsy confirming prurigo nodularis.
