With the exception of academic pathology and specific subspecialty areas, manpower in pathology is currently in a state of apparent equilibrium between supply and demand. Exogenous influences, and especially an influx of Americans who have attended foreign-chartered medical schools, could disturb this apparent equilibrium. Other key manpower issues with respect to pathology include mechanisms to determine optimal numbers of pathologists, the future productivity of pathologists, current and prospective needs in academic pathology and subspecialty areas, and the role of the federal government in the area of medical manpower. Recommendations to deal with these and related issues are presented.

Delivery of health care, including medical imaging, generates substantial global greenhouse gas emissions. The cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) community has an opportunity to decrease our carbon footprint, mitigate the effects of the climate crisis, and develop resiliency to current and future impacts of climate change. The goal of this document is to review and recommend actions and strategies to allow for CMR operation with improved sustainability, including efficient CMR protocols and CMR imaging workflow strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, energy, and waste, and to decrease reliance on finite resources, including helium and waterbody contamination by gadolinium-based contrast agents.

One of the main factors that have made it difficult to control malaria is the large number of parasites that are resistant to the usual antimalarial drugs. Therefore, the development of new drugs that are more effective and with low toxicity for humans is necessary. In this work, we evaluated the adduct 2-(3-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-oxoindolin-3-yl) acrylonitrile, also called CHISACN, as a potential antimalarial through in vitro studies, and evaluated its effects in silico and in vivo toxicology.

Importance: High-quality colonoscopy reduces the risks of colorectal cancer by increasing the adenoma detection rate. Routine use of an automatic quality control system (AQCS) to assist in colorectal adenoma detection should be considered.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of an AQCS on the adenoma detection rate among colonoscopists who were moderate- and low-level detectors during routine colonoscopy.

Background: In an Italian cohort of lupus podocytopathy patients, we aimed to characterize the presenting features, therapy, and outcomes, and explore differences between relapsing and non-relapsing patients.
Methods: We identified 29 patients with lupus podocytopathy from 1994 to 2023 in 11 Italian Nephrology/Rheumatology Units, and divided them into two groups: relapsing and non-relapsing. Given the limited sample size, a p-value ≤ 0.

Pineal gland lesions pose a significant surgical challenge due to the deep-seated nature of the pineal gland, as well as the limited field of view, and the complex vascular anatomy. The mainstay of surgical treatment, when necessary, is always histopathological clarity and gross total resection (GTR). We evaluate the surgical outcomes for pineal gland lesions, shedding light on functional outcomes, histological findings, and surgical complications.
