•
1 like•291 views
A 50-year-old woman undergoing an abdominal ultrasound for breast cancer staging was found to have a renal mass. Computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed features consistent with renal angiomyolipoma. Biopsy of the mass showed the classic microscopic pathology of angiomyolipoma, with myoid cells and mature fat tissue surrounding large vessels. Elastography found the mean stiffness of the angiomyolipoma to be similar to renal cortex but less than the renal medulla.

[1] Sulfonylureas like glimepiride stimulate insulin secretion from the pancreas by closing ATP-sensitive potassium channels, increasing intracellular calcium levels, and promoting the fusion of insulin granules. [2] In addition to stimulating insulin secretion, glimepiride may also increase insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in muscle and fat cells through increased translocation of GLUT4 transporters. [3] By both secreting insulin from pancreatic beta cells and improving insulin resistance, glimepiride provides glycemic control for patients with type 2 diabetes through its unique dual mode of action.
Dr. masciotra case of the day n.1 - breast cancer
A 50-year-old woman felt a slightly painful nodule in her left breast. Comparison of mammograms from 1 year and 2 months ago showed an increase in density and volume of the nodule. Ultrasound, MRI and shear wave elastography of the breast and axilla revealed a 3 cm cancer close to the pectoral fascia and metastatic involvement of at least two axillary lymph nodes. High breast density can obscure cancers on mammography. Multiple modalities including ultrasound and MRI may be needed for screening in dense breasts. Shear wave elastography provides information on size and stiffness of cancers and lymph nodes beyond conventional ultrasound.

Glimepiride is an oral anti-hyperglycemic medication from the sulfonylurea class. It works by stimulating the pancreas to secrete more insulin and by increasing insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat cells. Glimepiride has been shown to effectively lower blood glucose levels with a lower risk of hypoglycemia compared to other sulfonylureas like glibenclamide. Studies also indicate Glimepiride may provide cardiovascular benefits such as reducing inflammatory markers and not blocking the protective effects of ischemic preconditioning like glibenclamide. When used in combination with metformin, Glimepiride is associated with lower mortality than other sulfonylureas.
Hypertension & diabetes
This document discusses the management of hypertension in patients with diabetes. It begins by outlining the magnitude of the problem globally, noting that diabetes currently affects 246 million people worldwide and is expected to affect 380 million by 2025. It then discusses the strong relationship between diabetes and hypertension, and the cardiovascular burden associated with the coexistence of the two conditions. The renin angiotensin system and its role in hypertension is explained. The document recommends the use of ACE inhibitors in the management of diabetic hypertension due to evidence from clinical trials demonstrating their efficacy in reducing cardiovascular events and mortality compared to other agents. It also discusses the benefits of ACE inhibitors versus angiotensin receptor blockers.

Edwin gale.cost effective diabetes treatment
This document discusses effective and cost-effective treatment for diabetes. It summarizes the key points made in the document in 3 sentences:
Intensified glucose control alone offers limited benefits for type 2 diabetes patients, as it provides only weak protection against cardiovascular outcomes and has not been shown to improve life expectancy. Combined treatment of all cardiovascular risk factors can significantly improve outcomes. The best approach is to consider a patient's individual prognosis, risks, and preferences when determining the appropriate treatment goals and therapies.
Ivon daskalova.diabetes and cancer
This document discusses the link between diabetes and increased cancer risk. Several factors contribute to this relationship, including aging, obesity, diet, physical activity, and treatments that can increase insulin and insulin-like growth factor levels. The document reviews evidence that diabetes treatments like metformin may be protective against cancer, while insulin and sulfonylureas may promote tumor growth. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and using diabetes treatments cautiously can help reduce cancer risk.
Ibrahim elebrashy.insulin therapy
This document discusses challenges with insulin therapy for primary care and provides solutions. It notes that insulin reduces A1C more than oral agents, with insulin reducing A1C by at least 2.5%. The ADA-EASD consensus recommends starting insulin first for patients with an A1C over 10%, fasting blood sugar over 250 mg/dl, or random blood sugars consistently over 300 mg/dl. Treating fasting hyperglycemia with basal insulin can lower overall 24-hour plasma glucose levels. Insulin glargine reduces risks of nocturnal hypoglycemia compared to NPH insulin. Studies also found patients were able to remain on insulin glargine plus oral drugs for an extended period without needing intensified treatment.

This document provides information on drugs used to treat diabetes mellitus. It discusses different types of insulin, including short-acting, intermediate-acting and long-acting insulins. It describes the roles of insulin in regulating carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. It also discusses the management of diabetes with insulin, including recommended insulin regimens and factors that can affect insulin requirements such as hepatic or renal impairment, pregnancy, and breastfeeding.
Adel abdel aziz.cgc 2
Glycaemic targets are often not met with current diabetes treatments. While treatment aims to lower blood glucose, it can lead to weight gain and hypoglycemia. Achieving comprehensive glycaemic control requires addressing both fasting and post-prandial glucose to reduce symptoms, complications, and improve quality of life. The risk of severe hypoglycemia increases with longer duration of insulin treatment. Early and sustained glycemic control can reduce long-term complications like heart attacks and eye/kidney/nerve damage.

Three small thyroid papillary cancers were detected in two asymptomatic women. Shear wave elastography proved reliable in identifying stiff nodules, correctly characterizing the single benign nodule as soft. While papillary cancers are usually stiff, follicular cancers can be soft. Small nodules can be cancerous, while large nodules may be benign. Ultrasonography offers multiple parameters including stiffness, standard deviation, and elasticity ratios, providing a multiparametric approach rather than relying on a single mode.

A 51-year-old woman underwent ultrasound examination of her thyroid which revealed two nodules - a mixed 25mm nodule in the right lobe and a solid 6mm nodule in the left lobe. Various ultrasound techniques were used to analyze the nodules, including color Doppler, power Doppler, and shear wave elastography. While TIRADS analysis only slightly differed between the nodules, shear wave elastography showed the right nodule to be significantly stiffer, correctly indicating it was a follicular carcinoma based on areas of capsular invasion. Advanced ultrasound tools like shear wave elastography provide important additional information beyond traditional ultrasound in evaluating thyroid nodules.
Dr masciotra clinical case of intrahepatic cholelithiasis
This document describes a case of intrahepatic cholelithiasis (gallstones within the liver) in a 29-year-old woman who had no symptoms. Ultrasound images showed multiple small (<1mm) hyperechoic foci distributed along the intrahepatic biliary tree in segments 6 and 7, consistent with lipid deposits. The distribution and appearance indicated it was not caused by air in the bile ducts. In young women, this condition can be caused by low phospholipid content in the bile due to genetic mutations affecting bile acid transport.
Dr. masciotra breast swe clinical cases
Ultrasound gives today more informations both in morphology (through speed of sound optimisation and 3D acquisition) and in mechanical properties evaluations (it gives mean, maximum and minimum stiffness as well standard deviation in the ROI). Furthermore it's possible to draw freehand ROI, very useful to differentiate the tumor and the stiff surrounding stroma also in the C plane with 3D SWE. Here some clinical cases are presented.
Dr. masciotra speed of sound role in us studies
In this presentation dr. Masciotra shows how the speed of sound selection in US imaging does change the informations of US data, both qualitative (morphology, echogenicity, spatial and contrast resolution) and quantitative (density of vessels, stiffness map) of the tissues examined.
In questa presentazione il dr. Masciotra analizza sulle immagini di casi clinici gli effetti della scelta della velocità del suono sulla qualità delle informazioni dei dati ecografici.
Come si può vedere il parametro della velocità del suono condiziona in maniera sensibile le informazioni sia qualitative (morfologia, ecostruttura, risoluzione spaziale e di contrasto) che quantitative (densità dei vasi e proprietà meccaniche come l'elasticità) dei tessuti esaminati.

Ultrasound is currently the only mean to determine non-invasively:
•the elastic properties of the arterial wall material (Young's elastic modulus)
•the relationship between intima-media thickness (IMT) and elastic properties or the influence of inward or outward remodeling on arterial distensibility.
Here you find also a demonstration of UltraFast doppler technology in the study of the carotids and vertebral arteries.
UltraFast doppler acquisition lasts only a few seconds and then in postprocessing it is possible to do spectral analysis in up to 3 different vessels (or 3 different sites in the same vessel).
It automatically identifies the frames with :
1) Maximum velocities
2) Mean velocities
3) Peak sistolic velocity.
It's very fast and reliable.D. antonio pio masciotra breast cancer seen on chest ct
1) A 74-year-old woman underwent an unenhanced CT scan of the chest for cough and dyspnea that incidentally found a 3 cm solid mass in her right breast. Further imaging with mammography, ultrasound, and shear wave elastography provided details of the mass's irregular margins, infiltrating growth, and stiff mechanical properties.
2) A follow-up CT scan with contrast found the mass had a contrast enhancement pattern between Type 1 and Type 2 curves on MR, which is not highly indicative of malignancy based on kinetics. Density increments were also relatively low.
3) The CT scan also incidentally found endometrial cancer, and total body CT was done for staging. Incidental breast

Health informatics has huge employment potential and provides a big business opportunity for the healthcare industry. A big pool of trained health informatics manpower can lead to product & service innovations on a global scale in India.
Hypertension and it's role of physiotherapy in it.
This particular slides consist of- what is hypertension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is summary of hypertension -
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious medical condition that occurs when blood pressure in the body's arteries is consistently too high. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.
FACIAL NERVE
The facial nerve, also known as cranial nerve VII, is one of the 12 cranial nerves originating from the brain. It's a mixed nerve, meaning it contains both sensory and motor fibres, and it plays a crucial role in controlling various facial muscles, as well as conveying sensory information from the taste buds on the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.
Hypotension and role of physiotherapy in it
This particular slides consist of- what is hypotension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.
