Abstract:

Ovarian cancer, the most aggressive gynecological malignancy, presents at advanced stages with metastatic disease. Diagnosis at an early stage is the most important determinant of survival; however, the majority of patients are asymptomatic at early stages and the current diagnostic tools used in clinics show limited success in early detection and hence the need for new diagnostic biomarkers. With the advance of techniques in genomic and proteomics, numerous biomarkers are emerging which may serve as a platform for early detection of ovarian cancer. These include gene-, protein-, miRNAs, and m

Abstract:

Diagnosis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) is based on clinical features such as subacute progress of symmetrical weakness of proximal muscle and muscle fatigue, in combination with laboratory confirmation of myopathy, including elevated muscle enzyme levels in serum and histological demonstration of skeletal muscle inflammation, as well as fibre regeneration and degeneration in muscle biopsies. Several classification criteria for IIM have historically been proposed. New classification criteria for IIM have been developed, and are based on real patient data from adult and juvenile I

Abstract:

Epilepsy syndromes of childhood are a heterogeneous group of disorders that occur at specific neurodevelopmental stages, with a variable prognosis ranging from benign to catastrophic. In clinical practice they are categorized based on seizure type, age of onset, clinical presentation, electroencephalographic (EEG) findings, as well as response to treatment. In addition, recent advancements in neuroimaging and genetic testing have become important diagnostic tools revealing underlying defects for some of these syndromes. This knowledge has consequences for clinical practice, as it opens new per

Abstract:

This case of a young female with suspected pulmonary sarcoidosis demonstrates the difficulties in confirming the diagnosis and subsequently identifying the appropriate treatment. Current guidelines were developed in the 1990s, and there has been little change in the diagnostic pathway since then.

The patient’s management can be complex, with a host of clinical parameters that can be potentially used to assess each patient’s disease activity, severity, and prognosis, and the decis

The development of new screening and diagnostic tools will assist in epidemiological studies.

Arterial pathologies, important causes of death and morbidity in humans, are closely related to modifications in the circulatory system during evolution.

Abdominal aortic aneurysms of atherothrombotic origin are characterized by the presence of an intraluminal thrombus (ILT), a major source of proteases, including plasmin, MMP-9, and elastase.
