The clinical and anatomicopathological characteristics of acute and chronic toxoplasmosis are described as they affect different structures and systems. The lesion to adrenal glands is compared to that seen in disseminated herpes simplex; however, the question remains as to why in both congenital infections, necrosis of adrenal glands appears without inflammatory reaction. The investigation of special techniques for localization and identification of Toxoplasma gondii "groups" or cysts, leads to the conclusion that Grocott's silver impregnation technique used for the identification of Entamoeba histolytica is also useful to discover Toxoplasma in tissues.

Background And Purpose: The SOFT (Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy of infra-diaphragmatic sOFT tissue metastases) trial assesses the safety and efficacy of risk-adapted MR-guided stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) of infra-diaphragmatic soft tissue metastasis in patients with oligometastatic disease (OMD) (clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT04407897). This paper reports the one-year efficacy analysis and evaluates associations between local control (LC) and clinical and dosimetric parameters.

The zona glomerulosa (ZG) synthesizes the mineralocorticoid aldosterone. The primary role of aldosterone is the maintenance of volume and electrolyte homeostasis. Aldosterone synthesis is primarily regulated via tightly controlled oscillations in intracellular calcium levels in response to stimulation.

Endocrine surgery in multimorbid, frail and geriatric patients is increasing, is often urgent and characterized by special risk constellations. Successful parathyroid gland surgery nearly always results in a marked improvement, irrespective of the specific risk profile of the patient. Except for critical intubation and mediastinal interventions in the risk profile, surgery of the thyroid glands is predominantly beneficial and justifiable even in frail patients.

Steroid hormones take an active part in a whole complex of physiological processes that are fundamental for the normal development and functioning of the human body. In the bloodstream steroid hormones are bind with specific transport proteins, in particular with transcortin. The matter of changes in hormone-protein complex in various conditions were actively studied in the second half of the twentieth century, but currently this issue has been taken a back seat by the development of high-precision diagnostic methods of steroid hormones determining.
