Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is a rare subtype of lipoma. SCL is commonly reported in subcutaneous tissues of the neck, shoulders, and back, but its occurrence in the lip, where adipose tissue is sparse, is rare. We present a case of SCL in a 53-year-old woman referred to our plastic surgery department with a chief complaint of a submucosal mass in the right lower lip. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a mass in the submucosal tissue of the lower lip. Surgical excision was performed through a lip incision. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of SCL with the presence of CD34-positive/S100-negative cells. Differential diagnosis between SCL and liposarcoma is crucial and challenging based on clinical or imaging findings, emphasizing the importance of histopathological examination.

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.

Objectives: To evaluate the roles of oxidative balance score (OBS) in staging and mortality risk of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome (CKM).

Methods: Data of this study were from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2018. We performed cross-sectional analyses using multinomial logistic regression to investigate the relationship between OBS and CKM staging.

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.

This report highlights a rare occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury resulting from calcium hydroxide extrusion during endodontic treatment. The patient experienced severe pain and paresthesia in the lower right lip following root canal treatment due to the inadvertent overflow of calcium hydroxide into the IAN canal. No surgical intervention was performed, and the patient received non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics and vitamin B complex injections to manage the symptoms.
