The authors studied patients with an attack-like course and a "cliche" type course (i.e. the psychopathological structure of attacks does not change within the disease). In spite of the differences in the clinical picture of the attacks, the studied patients slightly differed in age, onset of the 1st attack, number of sick male- and female patients, correlation between the age at the onset of the 1st attack and sex, number of previous attacks and continuation of remissions. A direct correlational dependance between the character of productive disturbances and the depth of negative changes in remissions and the clinical picture of psychotic attacks was observed.

Aim: This study leveraged standard-of-care CT scans of patients receiving unilateral radiotherapy (RT) for early tonsillar cancer to detect volumetric changes in the carotid arteries, and determine whether there is a dose-response relationship.

Methods: Disease-free cancer survivors (>3 months since therapy and age > 18 years) treated with intensity modulated RT for early (T1-2, N0-2b) tonsillar cancer with pre- and post-therapy contrast-enhanced CT scans available were included. Patients treated with definitive surgery, bilateral RT, or additional RT before the post-RT CT scan were excluded.

Background And Aims: People who have diabetes mellitus (DM) are thought to be more susceptible to pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Several published comparative investigations have reported that chest x-ray images from PTB with DM are considered atypical due to their frequent involvement of the lower lung field (LLF). This study aimed to investigate the frequency of lower lung field tuberculosis (LLF-TB) in DM and the risk factor of DM for the development of TB.
