Clinical Pathology Conference: Case 4: An exophytic gingival mass of the right anterior mandible
An 83-year-old male presented to a community oral maxillofacial surgeon with a tender, pink, pedunculated exophytic tumor measuring 2  × 1.5 cm involving the right anterior mandible adjacent to tooth #27 (Figure 1A). His medical history was significant for hypertension, congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and prostate cancer treated with radiation and androgen deprivation chemotherapy. The patient had been taking a miodarone, metoprolol, digoxin, rivaroxaban, furosemide, bicalutamide, and leuprorelin injections.

Beta-blocking patients with cardiac amyloidosis: Adelante cum juicio
Once upon a time, beta-blockers (BB) were simply forbidden for the treatment of patients with heart failure (HF): they were thought to worsen clinical severity of the disease, eliciting salt/water retention, reducing myocardial contractility, impairing hemodynamics. [1] Therefore, although the first evidence of metoprolol efficacy was given in 1975, only 20  years after, in 1993, the first randomized study paved the way to a widespread use, finally guideline-recommended since 1999 up to 2021. [2] In the meanwhile, Packer's neurohormonal model of HF overcame the cardiocirculatory and cardiorenal ones. (Source: Internation...

Application of non-lethal bioSPME-LC-MS/MS for the detection of human pharmaceuticals in soft corals: A survey at the North Nilandhe atoll (Maldives)
Chemosphere. 2024 Mar 28:141781. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141781. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAt present the information regarding the occurrence of human pharmaceuticals (PhaCs) in coral reefs and their potential impacts on the associated fauna is limited. To optimize the collection of data in these delicate environments, we employed a solid-phase microextraction (bioSPME) and liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) procedure that enabled in vivo determinations in soft corals. Specifically, we researched the antibiotics Ofloxacin Sulfamethoxazole and Clarithromycin, the anti-inflammat...
