Thirteen examples of pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and 4 of myoepithelioma (Me, 2 plasmacytoid cell type, 2 mixed cell type) were examined with respect to their proliferative activity on the basis of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) immunohistochemistry. In PA, PCNA labeling index (LI) in tubular/trabecular/solid areas was significantly higher than that in myxomatous or chondroid areas. Although the mean value of LI in PA and Me was not statistically different (PA; 3.02 +/- 1.03%, Me; 3.19 +/- 1.76%), the Me of mixed cell type composed of epithelial, spindle or clear neoplastic myoepithelial cells had significantly higher LI, indicating the possibility of more rapid growth than PA. The small difference in the mean value of PCNA LI between PA and the mixed cell type of Me, however, suggests that enucleation with a margin of normal uninvolved tissue remains the recommended treatment for Me, as well as for PA.

Introduction: Solitary plasmacytomas are tumors characterized by a local increase of malignant plasma cells in soft tissue or bone and may occur anywhere without evidence of systemic disease. The aim was to focus on the main surgical techniques and outcomes for this rare chest wall tumor.
Methods: Patients with solitary plasmacytoma involving a rib, who were operated for diagnostic or treatment purposes between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively reviewed.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) infection can lead to various outcomes, including active tuberculosis or latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). Household contacts of TB cases have a high risk of acquiring LTBI.

Nitric oxide synthases (NOSs) are heme-based monooxygenases that catalyze the NADPH-dependent oxidation of L-arginine to produce NO and L-citrulline. Over the past five years, the identification and characterization of NOS homologs in cyanobacteria have significantly advanced our understanding of these enzymes. However, the precise mechanisms through which NOS-derived NO influences nitrogen metabolism remain incompletely elucidated.

Background: Segmentation models for clinical data experience severe performance degradation when trained on a single client from one domain and distributed to other clients from different domain. Federated Learning (FL) provides a solution by enabling multi-party collaborative learning without compromising the confidentiality of clients' private data.
Methods: In this paper, we propose a cross-domain FL method for Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation (FL-W3S) of white blood cells in microscopic images.
GG Combined with Metformin Alleviates Alcohol-Induced Liver Inflammation in Mice by Maintaining the Intestinal Barrier and Regulating Treg/Th1 Cells.

Disturbances of the intestinal barrier enabling bacterial translocation exacerbate alcoholic liver disease (ALD). GG (LGG) has been shown to exert beneficial effects in gut dysbiosis and chronic liver disease. The current study assessed the combined effects of LGG and metformin, which play roles in anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory processes, in alcohol-induced liver disease mice.
