This single case study illustrates a methodology for identifying recurrent pathological emotional states in a hospitalized, borderline patient. Parallel therapeutic inputs are delineated and examined in terms of patient-specific responses. The results indicate that ratings of nursing notes recorded across three periods of hospitalization can reliably isolate the patient's most salient and debilitating emotional states. State-specific therapeutic interventions are extracted and their effectiveness noted. The analyses illustrate clinical phenomena which are congruent with what is known about borderline symptomatology. In addition, the study locates therapeutic errors which often occur when working with difficult patients.

Rationale And Objectives: To develop and validate a deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) based on T2-weighted MRI to distinguish between borderline ovarian tumors (BOTs) and stage I epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) preoperatively.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective multicenter study enrolled 279 patients from three centers, divided into a training set (n = 207) and an external test set (n = 72). The intra- and peritumoral radiomics analysis was employed to develop a combined radiomics model.

Background And Aims: Coronary angiography-derived wall shear stress (WSS) may enable identification of vulnerable plaques and patients. A new recently introduced software allows seamless three-dimensional quantitative coronary angiography (3D-QCA) reconstruction and WSS computation within a single user-friendly platform carrying promise for clinical applications. This study examines for the first time the efficacy of this software in detecting vulnerable lesions in patients with intermediate non-flow limiting stenoses.

Background: Trauma-focused psychotherapy is treatment of choice for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, about half of patients do not respond. Recently, there is increased interest in brain criticality, which assesses the phase transition between order and disorder in brain activity.

Background: Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is a rare, benign condition that shares characteristics with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), a more sinister condition that requires surgical intervention. This case report demonstrates misdiagnosis of FHH and highlights important learning points to prevent this in the future.
Case Presentation: Hypercalcaemia was incidentally discovered in a 21-year-old patient who had no symptoms of hypercalcaemia and no significant family history.
