There are many well recognised causes of breast enlargement in man. We wish to present an unusual example of this condition precipitated by prolonged contact with an oestrogen-containing anti-baldness lotion.

Background: The percentage of women <50 years of age hospitalized with myocardial infarction is increasing. We describe the clinical, morphological, and biological characteristics, as well as the clinical outcomes of this population.
Methods And Results: This prospective, observational study included consecutive women <50 years of age admitted for myocardial infarction at 30 centers in France (May 2017-June 2019).

Several studies show that a significantly stronger association is obvious between increased body mass index (BMI) and higher breast cancer incidence. Additionally, obese and postmenopausal women are at higher risk of all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality compared with non-obese women with breast cancer. In this context, increased levels of estrogens, excessive aromatization activity of the adipose tissue, overexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, insulin resistance, adipocyte-derived adipokines, hypercholesterolemia, and excessive oxidative stress contribute to the development of breast cancer in obese women.

Recent studies have reported a higher than expected risk of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) after breast conserving surgery (BCS) and a single dose of electron beam intra-operative radiotherapy (IORT). This finding was the rationale to perform a retrospective single center cohort study evaluating the oncologic results of consecutive patients treated with BCS and IORT. Women were eligible if they had clinical low-risk (N0, ≤2 cm unifocal, Bloom and Richardson grade 1-2), estrogen receptor-positive and human-epidermal-growth-factor-receptor-2-negative breast cancer.

Machine learning (ML) techniques have shown great potential in cardiovascular surgery, including real-time stenosis recognition, detection of stented coronary anomalies, and prediction of in-stent restenosis (ISR). However, estimating neointima evolution poses challenges for ML models due to limitations in manual measurements, variations in image quality, low data availability, and the difficulty of acquiring biological quantities. An effective in silico model is necessary to accurately capture the mechanisms leading to neointimal hyperplasia.
