Case report of a patient with an intraosseous meningioma presenting as possible metastasis from prostate cancer: Diagnostic dilemma and review of literature.

Intraosseous meningiomas are a rare subtype of meningiomas representing approximately 2% of all cases. They can confound a diagnosis of other bone lesions including metastatic tumors. We present a case of a patient with prostate cancer who on staging workup was suspected to have a skull metastasis.

Relative Ratios of Human Seasonal Coronavirus Antibodies Predict the Efficiency of Cross-Neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Binding to ACE2.

Background: Antibodies raised against human seasonal coronaviruses (sCoVs), which are responsible for the common cold, are known to cross-react with SARS-CoV-2 antigens. This prompts questions about their protective role against SARS-CoV-2 infections and COVID-19 severity. However, the relationship between sCoVs exposure and SARS-CoV-2 correlates of protection are not clearly identified.

Fatal Entrapment of the Basilar Artery in a Longitudinal Fracture of the Clivus Due to Head Injury: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Infarction of the posterior cerebral artery circulation arising from entrapment of the basilar artery in a fracture of the clivus has been reported in the medical literature, predominantly in the radiology and emergency medicine journals. Review of the medical literature on the topic revealed 14 published cases of entrapment of the basilar and/or vertebral artery within a longitudinal fracture of the clivus. These were all reported between 1964 and 2016 and postmortem examination had been conducted on seven cases.
