5617 Background: The involvement of pulmonary vessels by tumor emboli has been described from different primary sites malignancy. Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a severe and potentially fatal complication in patients with female genital cancers, including ovarian, cervical, uterine, vulvar malignancies. These along associated treatments such as major abdominal surgery, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, significantly increase the risk venous thromboembolism (VTE), PE. While previous studies detail...

e13030 Background: Obesity is a significant risk factor for breast cancer, influencing its incidence and progression, contributing to mortality. Analyzing two decades of CDC WONDER data provides insights into the mortality disparities associated with obesity in cancer patients. Methods: Death certificate from database adults aged ≥25 years (1999–2020) were analyzed. Crude rates (CMRs) age-adjusted (AAMRs) per 100,000 persons calculated. Temporal trends assessed using annual percent change...

e19087 Background: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a significant complication and marker of increased mortality in patients suffering from hematolymphoid malignancies, including leukemias, lymphomas, multiple myeloma. Individuals with these hematologic cancers are at an risk venous thromboembolism (VTE) due to cancer-associated hypercoagulability, treatment-related effects, disease-related factors. Examining trends critical for informing targeted interventions optimizing patient management....

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an uncommon multisystem disorder that can affect the lungs, skin, kidneys, and brain. The study highlights importance of genetic clinical diagnostic criteria in identifying this rare condition role surveillance preventing complications.Herein, we report a case 16 years old female presenting with right flank pain, hematuria, hypopigmented macule over back, ash leaf spots upper lower limb, palpable mass lumbar region. Laboratory tests showed low hemoglobin...

I am writing to draw attention the alarming situation of Naegleria fowleri outbreak in Pakistan. N. fowleri, an amphizoic amoeba, has ability survive free water bodies, soil, and even within human central nervous system.1 This deadly amoeba been linked water-related activities such as swimming, diving, other recreational sports.1 Its pathogenesis involves entry through nasal cavity, where it attaches mucosa, then moves along olfactory nerve, eventually reaching nerve bulbs system. The...

Introduction: High levels of blood pressure (BP) are responsible for 7.6 million deaths each year worldwide, more than any other risk factor. The diagnosis hypertension is associated with a significant increase in the kidney or cardiovascular events, no prior history these events. Our study aims to analyze trends hypertensive heart disease and disease-related mortality United States, focusing on different races. Method: We retrieved death certificate data from CDC-WONDER database adults aged...

Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has high morbidity and mortality. Traditional craniotomy causes significant trauma lacks proven benefits. Minimally invasive techniques (MIT) like CT-guided thrombolysis, endoscopic, neuronavigation surgeries show promise in reducing secondary neurotoxicity. Our meta-analysis compares MIT with standard treatments for supratentorial spontaneous intracerebral hematomas (SSICHs) to evaluate their effectiveness improving clinical outcomes. Methods: We...

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this retrospective cohort study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety graft angiography through right radial artery. METHODS: A total 1,634 patients who underwent artery were included in study. Baseline characteristics, angiographic features, procedural parameters, outcomes analyzed. population compared with a control group 1,000 other access routes. Statistical analysis performed assess differences between groups. RESULTS: success rate for 95.6%. most common...

Rationale: Lymphangiomas are lymphatic malformations most commonly found in the head, neck and axilla. Their incidence gastrointestinal tract, especially duodenum is very rare. They mostly congenital usually seen children. Owing to their asymptomatic nature, these tumors often diagnosed incidentally. Surgical resection definite treatment. Patient concerns: We represent a case of 30-year-old male with duodenal lymphangioma presentation intermittent dyspepsia for 1 year, partially relieved by...

Abstract This paper illustrates a novel approach to determine the probabilistic rutting in asphalt mixtures based on Weibull distribution statistical approach. In this paper, thirty wearing course prepared using different binder grades and aggregate sources, are analysed. Cooper Wheel tracker Test (CWTT)and Asphalt pavement analyser (APA) have been used ascertain potential of with varying grade source. Mixtures then ranked their susceptibility. The obtained data is processed two parametric...
