Our hypothesis is that postnatal traumatic events in the first few months of life may represent a cause of canine and feline porencephaly that is more common than generally suspected.

We report a case of a 65-year-old man with a cavitary lung mass and parietal-based pleural nodules in which a pleural ultrasound-guided approach yielded a definitive diagnosis of stage IV non-small cell lung carcinoma. Computed tomography-guided biopsy is often preferred approach for the majority of United States hospitals for sampling pleural nodules as compared to US. The advantages of an US-guided approach include [1]: increased portability [2]; decreased procedure time [3]; reduced reliance on dedicated ancillary support staff [4]; need for local anesthesia only [5]; lack of ionizing radiation exposure; and [6] cost reduction.

Aim: To provide a rationale for and to evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of the combined use of pancreatic enzymes and actovegin in the combination therapy of patients with metabolic syndrome (MS) on the basis of comprehensive clinical and functional studies of the small bowel (SB).
Subjects And Methods: In the course of treatment, 120 patients with MS (verified using the diagnostic criteria elaborated by the All-Russian Research Society of Cardiology (2009)) underwent a comprehensive study of SB function: an isolated study of resorptive processes; evaluation of parietal and cavitary digestion, motor-evacuation function. The peripheral blood levels of gastrin, insulin, cortisol, thyroxine and thyrotropin were determined.
