Carotid Body Tumor: Incidental Discovery and Diagnosis.
Cureus
December 2024
Internal Medicine, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, El Paso, USA.
Carotid body tumors (CBTs), rare neuroendocrine neoplasms near the carotid bifurcation, are mostly asymptomatic but may cause discomfort and autonomic dysfunction. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is used for diagnosis, eliminating the need for a biopsy to avoid the risk of hemorrhage. Surgical excision is the preferred treatment, while radiotherapy is an option when surgery is impractical.

Including sensor information in medical interventions aims to support surgeons to decide on subsequent action steps by characterizing tissue intraoperatively. With bladder cancer, an important issue is tumor recurrence because of failure to remove the entire tumor. Impedance measurements can help to classify bladder tissue and give the surgeons an indication on how much tissue to remove.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
January 2025
University of Chicago Division of the Physical Sciences, chemistry, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has revolutionized the treatment of many cancers by leveraging the immune system to combat malignancies. However, its efficacy is limited by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and other regulatory mechanisms of the immune system. Innate immune modulators (IIMs) provide potent immune activation to complement adaptive immune responses and help overcome resistance to ICB.

December 2024
Department of Safety, Health and Environmental Engineering, National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology, Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Electronic address:
This is the first study to investigate the possible release of microplastic-derived dissolved organic matter (MP-DOM) in water from three major types of bio-based MPs, namely, polylactic acid (PLA), polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and PLA-PHA mixtures, under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation conditions. At an initial MP concentration of approximately 5 g per liter, the release of MP-DOM from the studied MPs ranged from 1.55 to 6.

Di Bella Foundation, Via Guglielmo Marconi 51 Bologna, 40122 Italy.
Objectives: Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a distinct subtype of breast cancer that has a poor prognosis due to the lack of effective therapeutic agents. Since a significant proportion of human surgical samples of TNBC expressed mRNA for the growth hormone (GH), growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors, and the mitogenic proliferative activity of GH, GHRH, and GnRH, have been identified as effective therapeutic targets for somatostatin and its analogs and GnRH analogs, Di Bella Method (DBM), a combination of hormonal analogs and vitamins, was introduced to target and inhibit solid tumors. The present study aimed to improve the prognosis of TNBC using DBM in women with TNBC.
