Paravertebral crystal deposition disease: a retrospective study of clinical presentation, prevalence, and CT imaging findings.
Skeletal Radiol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Fukui Prefectural Hospital, 2-8-1 Yotsui, Fukui City, 910-8526, Japan.
Objectives: Paravertebral crystal deposition disease, characterized by the deposition of crystals around the vertebral bodies leading to acute inflammation and pain, is a condition that remains largely unrecognized. This study aims to elucidate the prevalence, clinical features, and CT findings associated with this disease.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 14,839 consecutive patients who underwent chest and/or abdominal CT (September 2017 to September 2024) owing to chest, abdominal, or back pain.
How Do I Diagnose Fibrolamellar Carcinoma?
Mod Pathol
January 2025
Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN. Electronic address:
Fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC) is a unique primary carcinoma of liver that is characterized by distinct morphologic findings and a recurrent DNAJB1::PRKACA gene fusion. It typically presents in young individuals without underlying liver dysfunction. FLC is a difficult diagnosis when based only on morphology and misdiagnosis is not uncommon.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg
January 2025
Department of Clinical Anatomy, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Science, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Biomechanical studies suggest that the triceps brachii muscle generates resistive force against valgus stress on the elbow during baseball pitching. However, given the parallel fiber orientation in the distal tendinous structure of the triceps brachii, the mechanism behind this anti-valgus force remains unclear. In the present study, we aimed to examine the anatomy of the distal tendinous structure of the triceps brachii using bony morphological, macroscopic, and histological methods.

January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Seoul National University, Seoul 03080, Korea.
Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) have received much attention for their biomedical applications, such as bioimaging and drug delivery. Additionally, they have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. We used GQDs to treat renal fibrosis and confirmed their ability to protect renal cells from excessive oxidative stress in vitro and in vivo.

Phys Med Biol
January 2025
Department of Radiology, Duke University, Suite 302 Hock Plaza, 2424 Erwin Rd, Durham, North Carolina, 27708-0187, UNITED STATES.
Lung nodule appearance may provide prognostic information, as the presence of spiculation increases the suspicion of a nodule being cancerous. Spiculations can be quantified using morphological radiomics features extracted from CT images. Radiomics features can be affected by the acquisition parameters and scanner technologies; thus, it is essential to identify imaging conditions that provide reliable measurements, particularly for emerging technologies like photon-counting CT.
