Published: February 2025

Solitary small painless lower lip lesions are common and can be of variable etiologies, giving rise to a wide number of clinical and histopathological differentials. From a clinico-pathological perspective, the diagnostic differentials may vary from vascular malformation, basal cell carcinoma, epidermal cyst, traumatic neuroma, neurofibroma, schwannoma, neurilemmoma, skin adnexal tumor, to other mucosal neuromas. Here we are reporting one such rare case masquerading as mucocele in a patient aged 37 years who reported first time at the ENT outpatient department. On biopsy and histopathological examination, a diagnosis of palisaded encapsulated neuroma (PEN), an uncommon benign nerve sheath tumor, was made.

Aims: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in heart failure (HF). We analysed factors associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure using linked real-world UK data from primary and secondary care, along with findings from genome-wide association studies.

Methods And Results: Among 163 174 participants with a diagnosis of HF (January 1998 to May 2016) from Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and Hospital Episodes Statistics (HES), 111 595 participants had no previous history of AF (mean age 76.

Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes. Clinical risk factors have been identified as predictors of such outcomes, but social determinants of health (SDOH) may also play a role. We evaluated the associations between gendered SDOH (unevenly distributed between sexes) and adverse outcomes in AF.
