Association of prostate-specific antigen density with prostate cancer mortality after a benign systematic prostate biopsy result.
BJU Int
January 2025
Faculty of Social Sciences (Health Sciences), Prostate Cancer Research Center, Tampere University, Tampere, Finland.
Objective: To assess the association between prostate-specific antigen (PSA) density (PSAD) and prostate cancer mortality after a benign result on systematic transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study used data from the Finnish Randomised Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (FinRSPC) collected between 1996 and 2020. We identified men aged 55-71 years randomised to the screening arm with PSA ≥4.
Adult-Onset Pediatric-Type Follicular Lymphoma of the Parotid Gland.

Biomedical Sciences, University of Chicago, Chicago, USA.
Pediatric-type follicular lymphoma (PTFL) is an extremely rare B-cell lymphoma that primarily affects children and young adults, typically in individuals under 25 years old, with a median age of 15 years. Here, we report a rare case of PTFL in a 27-year-old adult male who presented with a slow-growing mass near his left ear. Initial CT scans of the neck revealed two oval-shaped, smooth, well-defined, homogeneously enhancing soft tissue density lesions in the superficial lobe of the left parotid gland.

Department of Gastroenterology, Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, Ludhiana 141001, Punjab, India.
This letter critically evaluates Jiang 's article on the differentiation of benign and malignant liver lesions using Emax and platelet count. Despite notable findings, significant methodological and interpretative limitations are identified. The study lacks detailed assay conditions for Emax measurement, employs inadequate statistical methods without robust multivariate analysis, and does not provide clinically relevant threshold values.

Lung Cancer Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.
Background: The carcinogenesis mechanism of early-stage lung cancer (ESLC) remains unclear. Microbial dysbiosis is closely related to tumor development. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between microbiota dysbiosis in ESLC.

Endocrinology Unit, Garibaldi-Nesima Hospital, Department of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, University of Catania, Catania, Italy.
Background: Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 syndrome (MEN2) is a hereditary disease resulting from mutations of the rearranged during transfection (RET) protooncogene subclassified into MEN2A [medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), pheochromocytoma, and primary hyperparathyroidism] and MEN2B (MTC, pheochromocytoma, Marfanoid habitus, mucous neuromas, and intestinal ganglioneuromatosis). Prophylactic thyroidectomy is recommended in RET-mutated patients. The age at which it should be performed depends on the type and aggressiveness of the mutation.
