Primary: aldosteronism is a frequent cause of secondary hypertension. With access to specialized care, an increasing number of patients with aldosteronism are being identified. Primary aldosteronism is treatable by adrenal surgery if aldosterone exce...

Cancer surgery is aimed at complete tumor resection and accurate lymph node detection. However, numerous blood vessels are distributed within the tumor, and the colors of the tumor, blood vessels, and lymph nodes are similar, making observations with...

Sudden, unexpected deaths are extremely difficult for families, especially when the victim is a child. Most sudden deaths occur due to cardiovascular issues, and a smaller number (approximately one-quarter) are attributed to other causes, such as epi...

Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) have chronically increased blood glucose and multiple physiologic alterations that place them at elevated risk for vascular disease. Traditionally, this vascular risk has mainly referred to chronic atherosclerosis...

Background: Inflammatory demyelination and impaired recovery processes result in permanent neurodegeneration and neurological disability in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). In terms of smoldering MS, chronic neuroinflammation develops in the ea...

Background: This study aimed to test an artificial intelligence-based reading system (AIRS) capable of reading retinographies of type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients and a predictive algorithm (DRPA) that predicts the risk of each patient with T2DM of dev...

Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are increasingly used for the treatment of thrombosis. While inhibitors of factor IIa and factor Xa have shown effectiveness, the risk of bleeding remains a significant concern. Recently, direct factor XIa inhibitor...
