The pursuit of reliable medical image segmentation is paramount for clinical applications, but is often hindered by low image contrast, ambiguous boundaries, and a scarcity of annotated data. Integrating language guidance from clinical text prompts offers a promising solution. However, effectively modeling the complex, long-range dependencies within and across visual and textual modalities remains a significant hurdle for current deep learning architectures. In this paper, we introduce a novel...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) introduced an important public health threat in the world beginning in 2019. The aim of the study was to describe the clinical characteristics, treatment methods and outcomes of pediatric cancer patients and HSCT recipients who developed SARS-CoV-2 infection between 2020 and 2023 in Poland. During the study period among all pediatric oncological patients, 496 children (12.2%), i.e. 204 girls...
CONCLUSIONS: Appendectomy rates across Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development regions declined by 0.75% annually, with an additional 6% drop during the COVID-19 pandemic. Geographic variability likely reflects differences in healthcare access, diagnostic practices, and non-surgical management. Ongoing surveillance is essential to understand evolving trends and guide surgical planning and global health policy.
CONCLUSIONS: A significant etiological shift from HCV to alcohol was observed, accompanied by persistently increased mortality after COVID-19. Thrombocytopenia remains an important predictor of mortality. The proposed score enables simple and effective risk stratification.
AIMS: We aimed to assess a) whether using the digital intervention, MyWay Diabetes (MWD), during the COVID-19 pandemic in Greater Manchester was associated with improvements in glycaemia and cardiovascular risk factors; and b) the cost-effectiveness of MWD.
CONCLUSIONS: Early in the pandemic, increased stool-based testing offset reduced colonoscopy uptake. Colonoscopy rates have since recovered, whereas stool-based testing continues to increase, with notable differences across ethnic groups. This sustained shift toward stool-based testing offers an opportunity to improve screening, especially where colonoscopy access is limited.
CONCLUSIONS: Residence in low-income, low-food access neighborhoods is associated with higher BMI and obesity risk across childhood and adolescence, independent of insurance type. These findings highlight neighborhood food access as a potentially modifiable structural determinant of pediatric obesity disparities.
CONCLUSIONS: Assessing severity and persistence of post-COVID-19 exposure symptoms can help clinicians address patient-reported QOL concerns, optimize cirrhosis management, and inform integrated care for ALD and AUD.
The World Health Organization reports that more than 500 drugs can cause drug-induced pancreatitis. Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir (Paxlovid; Pfizer, Mission, KS) has been approved to prevent hospitalization and mortality among patients with COVID-19. A 71-year-old man presented with epigastric abdominal pain and weight loss after recently completing a 5-day course of nirmatrelvir-ritonavir. He was found to have acute pancreatitis which resolved with symptomatic treatment. Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir is a...
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an emerging arbovirus, is transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. Climate change and increasing population mobility have driven recent outbreaks beyond traditional endemic regions. Since early July 2025, Guangdong province in southern China has faced an unprecedented outbreak of chikungunya fever. We aim to in-depth describe the epidemic features and theoretically assess the potential impact of vaccination campaigns. In total, the outbreak reported more than 25,000 cases....
