Electroencephalography (EEG) revealed a tendency toward slowing of background and rhythmic delta activities in the right frontotemporal region of Fp2, F4, C4, F8, T4, and T6. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a 10.7 × 10.0 × 5.5-cm mass from the right frontal to the parietal bone, expanding into the diploic space, and partly extending beyond the sagittal suture to the contralateral side [ and ]. Perfusion CT-indicated increased blood flow and volume [ and ]. Furthermore, the venous phase of four-dimensional CT angiography revealed that the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) was occluded due to the tumor . MRI revealed a high signal on T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) and T2-weighted imaging and signal suppression on fat-suppressed T1WI, suggesting a tumor with a fat component [-]. There was no signal change in the brain parenchyma, but it was accompanied by a midline shift . The right external carotid artery angiography revealed marked tumor staining from the right middle meningeal artery (MMA) . The tumor was fed mainly from the anterior branch of the MMA, and the other feeders were the posterior convexity branch of the MMA, deep temporal artery (DTA), and superficial temporal artery. Furthermore, the draining veins were highly dilated within the tumor and formed varices . A couple of the drainers were also delineated in the arterial phase, suggesting the presence of an AVF . The right internal carotid artery angiography revealed vascular loss at the tumor site and partial disruption of the SSS. There was no feeder from the right ICA, and there was a small amount of tumor stain from the anterior branch of the left MMA and the peripheral part of the left occipital artery. In view of the radiological findings, a provisional diagnosis of an intraosseous hemangioma was established. Since it was symptomatic and the patient and her family wanted surgical treatment, we decided to perform the surgery. +Preoperative endovascular embolization was performed with N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) and particles through feeding arteries. First, we introduced the microcatheter to the anterior branch of the right MMA and DTA and injected the NBCA diluted with contrast medium to 16.7–20.0%. Next, the MMA main trunk was also embolized with Embosphere® and fibered coils. Finally, the tumor stain was dramatically reduced after embolization . Two days after embolization, the patient underwent craniotomy. A thick DTA ran under the temporal muscle and was determined to be a feeding artery; therefore, we cut it after thorough coagulation. When the flap was inverted, the tumor was partially exposed on the bone . The tumor was fragile and easily bleeding. Many entry burr-holes were made on the surrounding normal bone to avoid cutting into the tumor. Since we found that the dura mater was firmly adherent to the inner table of the cranial tumor, the outer table of the tumor was first removed piecemeal. The diploe layer, containing a large amount of fat, bone tissue, and blood vessels, believed to be the main components of the tumor, was resected. During the operation, profuse bleeding from the inner table and dura near the SSS was encountered, and a blood transfusion was performed. The bleeding was controlled by removing the inner table and attaching dura, but a small part of the tumor near the SSS was left behind to preserve venous return [ and ]. After the resection, osmotherapy was performed to prevent cerebral edema. Cranioplasty was performed using a custom-made titanium mesh plate 1 month after the tumor resection [ and ]. After the tumor resection, E3V4M6 disturbance of consciousness and MMT4/5 left paralysis appeared transiently, but those symptoms disappeared after cranioplasty.

According to the Ficat-Arlet classification (modified version) [, ], this knee osteonecrosis was classified as stage IV. +The diagnosis was secondary osteonecrosis of the lateral condyle and Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Due to the presence of a large lesion limited to lateral femoral condyle, no evidence of joint space narrowing in the medial tibia-femoral compartment, and intact cruciate and collateral ligaments, the therapeutic treatment was fixed bearing lateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (LINK German). General anesthesia combined with midthigh saphenous nerve block was used for the operation. The knee was exposed via a lateral parapatellar approach to achieving a good view. Osteonecrosis of the distal aspect of the femur produces a large segment of dead bone (approximately 8.17 cm2) on the weight-bearing portion of the lateral femoral condyle . A large amount of necrotic bone, which mainly located on the posterior portion of femoral condyle, was completely removed down to the bleeding bed of bone by a spatula. Then we drilled several holes on the necrotic bone bed and filled the large bone defect with cement, which facilitated a solid initial fixation for cemented prosthesis. The rest of procedures was performed according to the lateral UKA operation manual. After the surgery, we enjoined her to avoid excessive knee flexion and intense activity in the early stage after surgery. +Follow-up: The patient was evaluated clinically and radiographically at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 1 year postoperatively and on an annual basis thereafter unless a problem arose. She could walk without ambulation aid shortly after the operation on the surgery day by virtue of rapid anesthetic resuscitation from general anesthesia combined with midthigh saphenous nerve block. Postoperative radiographic imaging showed optimal size and precise position of the prosthesis. On the 2nd day after surgery, she felt significant pain relief and VAS pain score improved from 7 to 2. Her left knee range of motion (ROM) was at 0° to 90° . The patient could unlimitedly walk for hours, go up and down stairs freely and achieved satisfactory knee joint function with ROM of 0° to 120° at 6 weeks after the operation. Improving joint function provided a physical, mental and emotional boost to the patient. She could return to work and sport at two months postoperatively. The EQ-5D score was 1, the KSS and WOMAC score were 91, 20 respectively at the latest follow-up.

A diagnosis of autoimmune PAP was confirmed based on her history, high-resolution computerized tomography (HRCT), and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) findings. WLL of the left lung, in which pulmonary infiltrates were denser than in the right lung on HRCT, was performed under general anesthesia due to exacerbation of dyspnea during follow-up. The first lavages were performed with 10,000 ml of normal saline, with an almost equal volume of returning effluent. Although her postoperative course was smooth for 4 months, she again developed exertional dyspnea and new and denser pulmonary infiltrates. Thus, a second WLL was planned 8 months after the first WLL. +Arterial blood gas (ABG) values before the second WLL, with the patient breathing room air, are as shown in Table . Pulmonary function tests revealed a restrictive pattern: vital capacity (VC)=1.44 (44.1%), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) =1.07 (39.8%), and carbon monoxide diffusion capacity (DLCO)=4.80 (20.8%). A 6-min walk test showed desaturation with exercise from 91 to 73%, resulting in the test being aborted after 3 min. Since the radiological involvement was greater on the left side, a repeated left lung lavage was planned with stand-by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) to prevent fatal hypoxemia. +After entering the operating room, electrocardiography, pulse oximeter (SpO2), and non-invasive blood pressure monitors were attached. After pre-oxygenation with 5 L/min of 100% O2 for 5 min, general anesthesia was induced and maintained with propofol, remifentanil, and rocuronium, and a 37 Fr left-sided double-lumen tube (DLT) was inserted. Correct positioning of the DLT was confirmed using bronchoscopy. Radial artery cannulation was performed for ABG analysis, which revealed a PaO2 of 467.4 mmHg following 5 min of bilateral mechanical ventilation with an FiO2 of 1.0. End-tidal PaCO2, arterial blood pressure, and bladder temperature were also monitored intraoperatively. In addition to usual monitors, a FloTracTM monitoring system (Edwards Lifesciences, California, USA) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) were prepared. After induction of anesthesia, baseline ABG revealed within the normal limits .

During one lung ventilation (OLV) of the right lung, after letting the patient’s left lung degas for 15 min and recruitment maneuver, ABG showed a PaO2 of 194.9 mmHg under an FiO2 of 1.0. Confirming adequate oxygenation during OLV, we started lavage. The ventilator settings were kept unchanged during OLV [PCV Peak 15 cmH2O, PEEP 6 cmH2O, I: E 1:1.5, RR 14/min]. Lavage was performed by repeatedly filling the left lung with irrigating solution while performing OLV of the right lung with an FiO2 of 1.0. +In every lavage procedure, 600 to 1000 ml of normal saline flowed into the left lung at a rate of 100 ml/min from a height of 30 cm above the patient, followed by passive drainage under gravity. The procedure was repeated 15 times using the instillation of warm saline and removal of the effluent. A total of 14 l of fluid was instilled into the left lung. WLL was performed satisfactorily, with the amount of effluent removed being almost equal to the instilled volume. The effluent contained very large amounts of amorphous sediment which gradually cleared. After 2.5 h of lavage, that is, nearly at the end of WLL, ABG values are as shown in Table . The pH, base excess, glucose, Na+, K+, and Cl− values suggested a strong ion difference (SID=20.36) . Dilutional hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis was diagnosed, likely due to excessive alveolar absorption of normal saline during WLL. The intraoperative infusion was 1260 ml including 700 ml of acetate Ringer’s, 50ml of Carbonate Ringer’s, and 510 ml of normal saline. Intraoperative urine volume was 90ml. +The patient remained hemodynamically stable during WLL, and there were no significant findings suggesting massive absorption of the lavage fluid by FloTrac Sensor, TEE, or no pulmonary edema on the chest X-ray. +Due to concern of continued postoperative fluid shifts, we decided to keep the patient intubated, and the DLT was replaced with a single lumen endotracheal tube. The patient was transferred to the ICU overnight for mechanical ventilation with a positive end-expiratory pressure of 10 cm H2O. Additionally, furosemide was given to remove excess fluid. ABG values returned to their normal limits 10 h after WLL was completed . She was extubated 15 h following the completion of WLL.

The bacteria’s morphology resembled that of streptococci. Bacterial cultures of both CSF and blood remained negative. The sample, which displayed bacteria in the Gram staining, and another CSF sample taken one day later, were analyzed using in-house bacterial 16s ribosomal RNA gene amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with high sensitivity for both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, followed by sequencing. The analysis of both samples tested positive for S. intermedius. +No clinical signs of infective endocarditis were observed in further assessments, and echocardiography was not performed.

There was no history of trauma, and the patient was febrile (37.8 ℃). On physical examination, extensive redness and swelling spreading from the patient’s left buttocks to the thigh root could be seen at the lithotomy position, with high skin temperature and obvious tenderness; perianal connective tissue was detected protruding from the anus, and extensive soft tissue bulges were palpable on digital rectal examination, with obvious tenderness and a sense of fluctuation at the 6 o’clock position. +Ultrasound of the left buttocks showed the echo of abnormal soft tissue with a thickened subcutaneous layer and multiple low to anechoic stripe and flaky zones, where the most extensive area was 1.9 cm × 1.1 cm . A CT scan was obtained to further define the extent and nature of the lesion, confirming multiple patchy liquid and gas density shadows in the bilateral rectal sphincter space, bilateral ischiorectal space, left hip and left thigh root muscle space, with gas–liquid planes detected in the left hip, and the rectum wall was discontinuous at 6 o'clock . Blood examination revealed that the white blood cell count reached 16.4 × 10^9/L, with 15.7 × 10^9/L and 92.2% for neutrophils. +The patient was then diagnosed as gas-producing perianal abscess and admitted to the surgical ward with preparation for open surgery. The patient’s blood was collected for blood culture examination (5 ml cultivated for 5 days in BacT/ALERT FA culture bottles and BacT/ALERT FN culture bottles for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria detection, respectively, using BacT/ALERT 3D Microbial Detection Systems (BioMerieux Ltd., France)), and then the patient was managed with intravenous fluids and broad-spectrum antibiotics (ceftizoxime (2.0 g i.v. q12h), ornidazole (0.5 g i.v. q24h)) for empirical antibiotic therapy. On the second day after admission, the patient underwent extensive surgical debridement of the perianal abscess, revealing multiple pockets of necrotic tissue. The left hip and the proximal thigh were also debrided at multiple points where the undulations were noticeable, and then necrotic tissue was excised with drains put in place following the standard principles. Over 30 ml of slightly turbid pus was released, and one intraoperative tissue specimen was sent for bacterial culture. +Although the perianal redness and swelling subsided obviously 2 days after the procedure, the patient was still febrile (38.3℃) with his left upper thigh continuing to be red and swollen, aggravated by tenderness and crepitus. CT of the left thigh showed extensive swollen soft tissue and massive gas density visible in the muscle space extending to the knee . An MRI was obtained to further confirm that soft tissue damage and gas and fluid signals could be detected between the subcutaneous tissue and muscle spaces through the left upper thigh . Blood was collected again for a culture test. +Considering insufficient debridement and the risk of incorrect identification of pathogens, the Division of Gastrointestinal Surgery and Orthopedics performed debridement of the left upper thigh together on the 4th day after the primary operation. A large amount of inflammatory and necrotic fascia and muscle tissue was excised.VSD (Vacuum Sealing Drainage) equipment was used for closing the wound and constant drainage. Anti-infection and supportive treatment were continued after the operation, combined with 800,000 UI gentamycin in 3000 ml of 0.9% NaCl for constant irrigation. The debridement tissue was sent for bacterial culture again and a 16S rDNA sequencing test. +While the blood culture tests continued to be negative, the first sample taken intraoperatively was positive in the bacterial culture test, and later identified as coinfection of Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecium by conventional phenotype methods using the COMPACT VITEK2 identification system (BioMerieux Ltd., France) 1 day after the second debridement . Drug sensitivity tests determined that the isolated Escherichia coli was sensitive to amikacin, ampicillin, ampicillin-Sulbactam, aztreonam, cefazolin, cefepime, cefotetan, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefuroxime, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin, imipenem, levofloxacin, meropenem, piperacillin, tobramycin, and trimethoprim, while the isolated Enterococcus faecium was sensitive to ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, high-level gentamicin, levofloxacin, linezolid, penicillin-G, tetracycline, tigecycline, and vancomycin. Although the specimen from the second surgery was negative in the bacterial culture test, the bacterial 16S rDNA from the patient sample was detected by PCR amplification with the 16S rDNA Bacterial Identification PCR Kit (Code No. RR176, TaKaRa, China). The sequence of the forward primer was 5′-GAGCGGATAACAATTTCACACAGG-3′, and the sequence of the reverse primer was 5′-CGCCAGGGTTTTCCCAGTCACGAC-3′. PCR results showed that there was an apparent PCR product of approximately 1600 bp representing the full-length 16S rDNA found in agarose gel . To clarify the classification of bacteria, DNA sequencing of this PCR amplicon was performed by the Sanger sequencing method . The chromatogram of 16S rDNA sequencing with different sequencing primers showed a single peak, indicating that one bacterial 16S rDNA fragment was present among PCR products . The bacteria were identified by searching and comparing the 16S rDNA sequences (see Additional file ) using the Silva database , which indicated that the bacteria have a 99% identity classification for Clostridium perfringens , and the phylogenetic tree was established by using the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) offered by the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database and confirmed that the isolate was most closely related to Clostridium perfringens . +Due to the detection of Clostridium perfringens by 16S rDNA sequencing, the antibiotic regimen was then adjusted according to the results of drug sensitivity tests following bacterial cultures and DNA sequencing tests: meropenem (1 g i.v. q8h) and vancomycin (1 g i.v. q12h). The pain, redness, and swelling of the perianal area and left upper thigh continued to be relieved by this regimen. MRI indicated that although the soft tissue of the left thigh was obviously thickened, no obvious abnormal signal between/in the muscle and bone tissue was detected . Twelve days after the second debridement, another operation was performed again to remove the VSD equipment and close the wound. The blood examination taken on the 3rd and 5th days postoperatively showed no inflammation and the anti-infective treatment was then stopped. After another 3 days of close observation, the patient was discharged at 27 days of admission, and recovered well without adverse complaints at the time of 1-month follow-up. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1377_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1377_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..59f1151650e18b078ee462c20ca20c2f577ea99d --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1377_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 53-year-old man with a history of multiple myocardial infarctions was admitted to our hospital because of ADHF accompanied by acute kidney injury (AKI) and hyperkalaemia.

Respiratory rate was 26 breaths per minute, and physical examination revealed wheezing rales heard in both lungs and oedema in the lower extremities bilaterally. Due to significant wheezing and irregular tachycardia, abnormal heart sounds were difficult to distinguish on cardiac auscultation. The patient had type 2 diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, paroxysmal AF, and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. He was markedly obese with a body weight (BW) of 131 kg [body mass index (BMI) = 45.9 kg/m2]. Laboratory tests showed an increase of brain natriuretic peptide (180.8 pg/mL, normal value: 18.4 < pg/mL), high serum potassium (9.4 mEq/l, normal value: 3.6–4.9 mEq/l). Serum urea nitrogen was 128.7 mg/dL (normal value: 8.0–22.0 mg/dL) and serum creatinine was 5.48 mg/dL (normal value: 0.60–1.10 mg/dL). An emergent continuous haemodialysis/filtration was conducted, and potassium value decreased. An electrocardiogram showed rapid AF rhythm plus ventricular premature beats around the rate of 160 beats per minute with left bundle branch block QRS morphology. The patient’s left ventricle showed marked dilatation and diffuse hypokinesis on echocardiography. The end-diastolic and end-systolic diameters of the left ventricle were 70 and 64 mm, respectively, and the ejection fraction (EF) was 18%. The left atrial diameter was 48 mm. Mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation were observed. The end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes were 403.9 and 364.2 mL, respectively, evaluated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The EF on cardiac MRI was 9.8%. Coronary artery angiography was performed 1 month before admission and no significant stenotic lesion was found. +The medications were optimized as possible for chronic HF and other co-morbidities, including bisoprolol (2.5 mg), angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) (olmesartan 40 mg), vasopressin receptor antagonist (tolvaptan 15 mg), loop diuretics (furosemide 80 mg), mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (spironolactone 12.5 mg), and amiodarone 200 mg. The maximum dose of ARBs was prescribed whereas dose of beta-blocker and spironolactone were sub-maximum doses due to frequent histories of ADHF/low output state and hyperkalaemia, which required emergent haemodialysis. +Direct current electrical cardioversion (DC) was repeated under the support of intravenous anti-arrhythmics (amiodarone and nifekalant) to improve the haemodynamic status. However, sinus rhythm could not be maintained, and AF recurred many times. The patient developed a low cardiac output state and multiple organ failure with persisting AF. Intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) and mechanical ventilation with intubation were initiated. Right heart catheterization (RHC) on Day 20 showed a mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of 57 mmHg and a cardiac index of 2.7 L/min/m2, under the support of IABP and catecholamine infusion (DOA = 4.7 µg/mL/min, DOB = 5 µg/mL/min). On the same day, continuous haemodialysis/filtration (CHDF) was started because of acute kidney injury (AKI) and anuria. One dose of Digoxin was administered intravenously, and intravenous infusion of an ultra-short-acting beta1-selective blocker (randiolol) was used as a rate control strategy. However, rate control of AF was challenging with the heart rate consistently greater than 120 b.p.m. despite sedation, with transient elevation up to 140 b.p.m. On Day 27, the haemodynamic status collapsed to a systolic blood pressure of 50 mmHg. Therefore, our Heart Team decided to perform an emergent catheter ablation of AF to overcome the vicious cycle of HF and AF. Bilateral pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) was performed using the Ensite system and an irrigated-tip ablation catheter (Tacticath, Abbott Laboratories, St Paul, MN, USA) , under deep sedation with dexmedetomidine and thiamylal. Sinus rhythm was restored by DC cardioversion following PVI. The procedure time was 2 h. These procedures were completed without using contrast agents, considering AKI. +After PVI, the sinus rhythm was restored. The patient’s haemodynamic condition improved dramatically, and catecholamine dosage was reduced. On the day after ablation, the IABP was removed. Renal function recovered and the patient began to produce urine. One week later, the patient was extubated, and mechanical ventilation was withdrawn. The patient’s clinical course is summarized in .

The pain had started two days prior to presentation for which she visited the ED in a peripheral hospital. There, blood analysis was done and showed neutrophilic shift, elevated C-reactive protein (CRP), and slightly high levels of the transaminases. Abdominal ultrasound (US) was done and showed a mildly distended gallbladder with a wall thickening of 4 mm and the presence of a 10 mm stone. There were no pericholecystic fluid nor dilation of the bile ducts. Sonographic Murphy's sign was negative. The patient was considered to have biliary colic and was offered to be admitted for further evaluation and to undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy; however, her symptoms decreased in intensity on intravenous analgesics meanwhile, for this reason she refused to be admitted and got discharged. Nevertheless, the next day the pain returned and became severe in intensity, constant in nature, not radiating, post-prandial, and not alleviating by over the counter pain medications for which she presented to our ED. This time, the pain was also associated with four episodes of vomiting which developed over the past two days, and she did report one week history of myalgia, nausea, anorexia, and generalized fatigue. The patient reported no fever or chills and normally consistent and colored bowel movements, but did notice recent urine darkening. To note, the patient takes no medications, has no pertinent past medical family history, is not a smoker, and drinks alcohol occasionally. Moreover, she underwent hysteroscopic myomectomy for uterine fibroids two weeks ago; in addition, open appendectomy, adenoidectomy, and tympanoplasty were done at the age of 14 year old, 15 year old, and 22 year old, respectively. On physical examination, vital signs were normal with a temperature of 37.3 °C, blood pressure of 105/68 mmHg, and heart rate of 73 beat per minute. She was pale but not icteric, and the abdominal examination revealed soft abdomen but with RUQ and epigastric tenderness and with a positive Murphy's sign. Blood test showed normal complete blood count, electrolytes, and lipase with only elevated CRP but lower than the previous value; however, this time, total and direct bilirubin blood tests were also ordered that showed elevated values . Therefore, taking into consideration the patient's persistent severe RUQ pain with positive Murphy's sign, the presence of a 10 mm gallbladder stone in the US done two days ago, and the elevated level of CRP and bilirubin, plan was made to undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) and possible bile duct exploration or intraoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) if needed for acute calculus cholecystitis with possible stone migration. Intraoperatively, an inflamed gallbladder was identified, and the smoothly done cholangiogram showed no abnormalities or filling defects in the biliary tree . Furthermore, the cystic duct and artery were clipped and cut and the gallbladder was dissected carefully from the liver bed with no injury; however, when removed and opened, no stones nor sludge were found in the gallbladder. At this stage the etiology of AAC was highly suspected rather than a calculus cholecystitis with a migrated stone. The last is mainly due to the presence of gallbladder inflammation without an obstructing stone and the difficulty of a 10 mm gallbladder stone or any stone large enough to cause cholecystitis to migrate through the common bile duct (CBD) either spontaneously without being stuck or causing bile duct dilatation or during cholangiography without extensive CBD flushing; moreover, when the US done in the peripheral hospital was reassessed at our institution retrospectively, it was found that the suspected reported stone could had been mistaken by a folded gallbladder wall especially due to the absence of a clear posterior shadowing. Post operation day one, while the patient's abdominal pain was already resolved, laboratory tests were ordered including full liver function test for further assessment and monitoring. Laboratory tests showed elevated liver function tests; therefore, taking into consideration this elevation, the presence of acalculous cholecystitis with no clear etiology, and the one week history of fatigue and myalgia, the presence of viral hepatitis was highly suspected. Therefore, complete viral hepatitis workup was ordered that all turned to be negative except for anti-HAV immunoglobulin M which was found to be 8.82 S/Co indicating acute viral hepatitis A.

The diameter of the Aneurysm, proximal neck, and distal neck diameters were 60 mm, 36 mm, 30.7 mm, respectively. Aortic arch angle was 77 degrees. 2-debranch TEVAR using a fenestrated endograft (Najuta) was performed to achieve long proximal sealing length and preserve brachiocephalic artery. First, Right subclavian artery to left carotid and left subclavian artery bypass using T-shaped graft (Propatene, Gore), was performed prior to stent graft insertion . Given the aneurysm length of 60-mm, a CTAG stent graft of 31-mm diameter × 15-mm length (W.L. Gore and Associates Flagstaff, AZ, USA) was implanted just distal to the LSCA to supply Najuta steadily. The fenestration of the Najuta of 42-mm diameter was successfully positioned in zone 0 and delivered to the brachiocephalic artery . Molding of the endograft after deployment of Najuta stent graft was not performed in order to avoid aortic dissection. It was an off-label use as the proximal neck length was 16.9 mm (< 20 mm). +Six hours postoperatively, he experienced acute hypotension, pancytopenia, and worsening lactic acidosis, resulting in systemic circulation failure. Emergent CT showed proximal collapse of the endograft and type I a endoleak with systemic blood flow obstruction .

An additional stent graft 34-34-150 (Valiant Captiva, Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland) was placed, with molding, just distal of the the second fenestration emergently at the ascending aorta to bail out Najuta collapse . Brachiocephalic artery flow was maintained. Consequently, the endoleak reduced, and systemic circulation improved. Nevertheless, hepatic failure continued due to hemolysis and progressive anemia the following day. Emergent open chest salvage was performed on the third postoperative day. Because the stent graft was in the ascending aorta, we established a cardiopulmonary bypass with femoral arterial inflow and right atrial outflow. A fresh retrograde type A aortic dissection and collapse of the proximal part of the Najuta were observed during surgery. The entry was located at the lesser curvature of the ascending aorta between proximal Najuta stent graft and Variant. Aortic dissection occurred after 2nd stent graft insertion to ascending aorta by balloon dilatation of the endograft. Following the successful closure of the false lumen caused by the removal of the proximal 2 stent by suturing the stent graft to the aorta, the patient's hemodynamics were stabilized (Video 1). However, he had an extensive cerebral infarction with brain edema. Therefore, extracranial decompression surgery was required, resulting in temporary improvement of symptoms.

She refused testing for defects on the HLXB9 gene on chromosome 7q36. She was referred to a neurosurgeon and treatment of the meningocele consisted of a laminectomy S1-S2, transection of the filum terminale and an intradural closure of the dura towards the meningocele. The meningocele regressed and is expected to further dissolve. Three months after surgery she has no complaints; she received a urinary diversion and bought a new bicycle again. +The Currarino syndrome is a familiar syndrome with the triad of sacral defects, hindgut malformations and presacral tumors. It has an autosomal dominant inheritance with variable expression and the mutation is on the HLXB9 gene located on chromosome 7q36 [,]. The sacral defects vary from a slightly dysplastic sacrum to a complete sacral agenesis (caudal regression). The embryology of the syndrome is still unclear and was initially thought to be a consequence of mal-communication of the endoderm and the neuronal ectoderm . More recently it is suggested that developmental errors in progenitor cells at the region of the caudal eminence are responsible for the abnormality [,]. +Clinically, the presacral mass in the Currrarino syndrome is a teratoma in approximately 25% of the cases . The complete Currarino triad is rare; this syndrome should be considered even in the presence of a partial phenotype [,]. The sacral defects can be mild and go unnoticed. The anorectal malformation can be present but the Currarino syndrome has also been described without an anorectal malformation . Constipation, however, is present in over 95% of the cases, often with an early onset as an infant and often with an intractable character . The wide phenotypic variability requires combined pediatric, neurosurgical, and often urological assessments. The triad is associated with other spinal abnormalities in the majority of patients, including anterior meningoceles in 60% . Anterior meningoceles are congenital lesions of spinal fluid filled sacs communicating with the subarachnoid space . They can give clinical symptoms related to the pressure the cele gives to organs in the pelvic floor region (rectum, bladder, genitals) or to the sacral nerves with subsequent failure of these nerves. Also, pressure on the cele gives increased intracerebral pressure with subsequent headaches. +Anterior meningoceles give symptoms in approximately two-third of the cases. These are abdominal in 70% of the cases, urogenital in 30% of the cases and neurological in 27% of the cases . Beside these effects it may give enteral fistulas resulting in severe infections with life-threatening meningitis . These symptoms appear usually in the second to third decade of life. Anterior meningoceles can further give constipation, abdominal pains, constipation, urinary retention, dysmenorrhea, low back pain, radiation to the legs as first symptoms. However, as in our case other atypical symptoms can be seen as well. Treatment of anterior meningoceles can be conservative if no symptoms are present. However, most anterior meningoceles give symptoms and need surgical treatment because there will be no spontaneous regression. Conservative management is furthermore associated with a 30% mortality rate mostly due to meningitis. Therefore, surgical closure is generally recommended [,]. A posterior approach, transsacral or sagittal, is the preferred one because of the lowest complication rate [,]. The anterior laparotomy approach still has a high morbidity and mortality (22%) due to infections and fistula formation. Transvaginal and transrectal punctures have also previously been suggested but have a similar high morbidity and mortality. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1435_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1435_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ccd6abf5485f451a1e2e62cec2dbc6eb9bb45594 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1435_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 36-year-old female with a history of untreated hypertension presented to the emergency department with severe headache and a decreased level of consciousness.

Her hemoglobin count was 8.7 gm/dl, and her total leukocyte count (TLC) was 10600/mm3 with 65% neutrophils. An echocardiogram showed large pericardial effusion (2.0 cm circumferentially) with evidence of tamponade. There was no structural lesion in her lungs. A total of 300 ml of hemorrhagic pericardial fluid was aspirated with a pigtail catheter in the pericardium. The pericardial fluid showed numerous red blood cells (RBCs) but no malignant cells were found. The adenosine deaminase in the fluid was not elevated. The bacterial and fungal cultures were sterile. Results of her abdominal ultrasound examination were normal. +The fluid in our patient's lungs re-accumulated within weeks of drainage. The antitubercular treatment and steroids were stopped. Meanwhile, results of her thyroid function tests were normal. Her rheumatoid factor, anti-nuclear antibodies, and antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibodies were negative. She tested negative for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) via rapid screening test. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan showed peculiar diffuse polygonal lobular architect and soft tissue mediastinal mass. A needle biopsy of the mediastinal mass revealed only fat and connective tissues. Repeated pericardial fluid analyses for malignant cells were negative. Her platelet counts were 50 to 70,000/mm3 on multiple occasions. She also tested negative for disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). Her bone marrow was normal. +The diagnosis was unclear. A review of literature on similar HRCT picture prompted a skeletal survey which showed lytic lesions in her bones . Consequently, diffuse multisystem involvement, lytic bone lesions and HRCT findings led to the diagnosis of diffuse lymphangiomatosis. The triglyceride levels in our patient's pericardial fluid were high, but her pericardial fluid was always hemorrhagic. During the course of her illness, she required multiple pericardiocentesis due to the large reaccumulation of fluid, as well as respiratory distress. Multiple blood transfusions were also given to our patient. +Treatment with interferon alpha was discussed but her parents did not consent to it. Thalidomide (50 mg/d), octreotide and epsilon-aminocaproic acid were tried empirically, but her response to this treatment was not sustained. Low-dose radiotherapy of 20 Gy over 10 days were also given to her pericardium. A pericardiectomy was done after exhausting all options. Lung biopsy taken at that time showed diffuse hemangiolymphangiomatosis . There were numerous anastomotic proliferating, and cystic spaces in the pulmonary interstitium were lined by endothelial cells. The cells lining the spaces were CD31+, which is a marker of endothelial cells, although it does not differentiate vascular from lymphatic capillaries. Many of her capillaries contained blood. The connective tissue stroma was predominantly lymphoid. Our patient's pericardium also showed similar findings. A diagnosis of diffuse lymphangiohemangiomatosis was thus made. Our patient had progressive respiratory failure and died after two months. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1579_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1579_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..5a5795c52a14a3e974e4359dbcff9156425b366b --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1579_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 34-year-old Han female patient with ataxia was admitted to our department.

Five months prior to the evaluation, she started experiencing static tremors in her hands and head, difficulty speaking, occasional numbness in the limbs, and a cough after drinking water. The tremor was significantly aggravated during movement. The patient also reported headaches, dizziness, and nausea. One year prior, she lacked appetite and had lost more than 10 pounds. The patient had a history of cephalosporin allergy and had undergone an appendectomy 20 years prior. She had a history of tobacco and alcohol use for 10 years and had quit smoking 6 months ago. Her parents were still alive, and she was the only child. She also reported that she had no relatives with similar symptoms. She had 27 teeth, a smaller tooth size, and normal sex hormone levels. And her menstruation was normal. At the time of presentation, she had dysarthria and upbeating nystagmus, with right gaze-evoked nystagmus. Her limb reflexes were absent, and her bilateral finger-nose test was unstable. She demonstrated instability on her calcaneus tibial test, and had a positive Romberg sign and bilateral Babinski and Chaddock's signs. +The total score of the scale for the assessment and rating of ataxia was 24, and the single-item scores were gait (score 5), stance (4), sitting (2), speech (2), finger chase (2), nose–finger test (2), fast alternating hand movement (3), and heel–shin slide (4). The patient's Mini-Mental State Examination score was within the normal range, and she failed to complete the Montreal Cognitive Scale due to tremors of the hands and head. The results for tumor markers, ceruloplasmin, immune-related autoantibodies such as the five items of thyroid function (thyroid stimulating hormone, free T3, free T4, thyroglobulin antibody and thyroid peroxidase antibody), three items of rheumatism (rheumatoid factors, anti-streptolysin O and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein), five items of immunity (immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin M, complement C3 and complement C4), antinuclear antibody, anticardiolipin antibody, and screening and confirmation of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody were not significantly abnormal. Lumbar puncture results for the patient showed no abnormalities. Brain MRI revealed speckled and small patchy abnormal signals bilaterally in the corona radiata, the paraventricular and frontal lobes, and the left temporal lobe. The lesions appeared hypointense on T1 images and hyperintense on T2 and FLAIR images. There were no obvious abnormal signals on diffusion-weighted images (DWI) and apparent diffusion coefficient maps (–). The radiological diagnosis was multiple white matter demyelinating lesions. Color Doppler ultrasonography of the gynecological, abdominal, cardiac, carotid, and intracranial arteries revealed no obvious abnormalities. +The detection of hereditary disease genes revealed mutations, namely c.4044C > G and c.1186-2A > G, in POLR3A . According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines, the genetic variant c.4044C > G is classified as PM2; however, its clinical significance remains unclear. The genetic variant c.1186-2A > G, classified as PVS1 and PM2, has the potential to influence RNA splicing, subsequently impacting protein function and causing disease. Respecting the patient's opinion, we did not perform genetic testing for her parents or son. Based on the results of physical examination, laboratory tests, imaging tests and gene reports, her condition was diagnosed as POLR3A-related leukodystrophy (HLD7). +We administered oral vitamin B12 and injectable acetylglutamine to nourish the nerves. No other drugs were used during the hospital stay. However, the symptoms did not show significant improvement during the 1 month of follow-up and appeared aggravated. The patient required assistance to walk and was unable to hold objects in her hands. After discharge, the patient was treated with vitamin B12, vitamin E, coenzyme Q, and traditional Chinese medicine, with Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, and Poria Cocos as the main ingredients. As of recent follow-up (1 year after she was discharged), she is able to walk slowly alone and climb stairs, and the degree of head and hand tremors has reduced significantly. She is also able to hold objects and cook independently.

Ultrasonic endoscopy revealed clearly demarcated mucosal layers, missing ulcerative mucosa and submucosa layers, and intact and thickened muscularis propria . Moreover, the intestinal computed tomography enhancement revealed segmental rectal wall thickening . The anorectal function test demonstrated a low resting pressure of the anal canal and normal contractile response and anorectal inhibition reflex but with increased anorectal sensitivity. Further, a colonoscopy of the male patient showed that the mucosa of his rectal anastomosis was smooth without any erosion or ulcer . +Whereas their complicate family history and next-generation sequencing of heritage whole exome sequencing was then conducted with their consent.

The CHEK2 p.H371Y mutation was reported as a kind of pathologic mutation. Then we conduct the immunohistochemical staining (IHC) to analyze the expression and function of CHEK2 (Antibody: CHEK2, CST#3440, 1:1600; p-CHEK2, CST#82263, 1:500; CDC25A, CST#3652, 1:100; p-P53, CST#9287, 1:100), which revealed a normal CHEK2 protein level but an impaired downstream gene protein level. As shown in Figure , CHEK2 protein levels and autophosphorylation CHEK2 protein levels showed no significant difference among the healthy control, inflammatory bowel diseases, rectal cancer and SRUS groups (including familial and sporadic cases). In contrast, the downstream gene of CHEK2, such as CDC25A and p-P53 (Ser 20), exhibit differential expression among these groups. CDC25A and p-p53 protein expression levels were the highest and the lowest in the SRUS group, while the differences between the SRUS and rectal cancer groups do not reach significance. +The SRUS groups contain familial patients in our case and non-familial cases (sporadic cases). The IHC results revealed that the CHEK2 mutation did not affect the expression of CHEK2 protein whether in familial SRUS cases or sporadic SRUS cases, but it would affect CHEK2 functions to different degrees. CDC25A expression level variations are more significant in familial SRUS cases, while p-p53 expression level changes are more pronounced in sporadic SRUS cases. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1597_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1597_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..e43eb43ba2b4da3ffc2154c051165cbc4d74af47 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1597_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 67-year-old man who was a current smoker presented with an edematous right arm and face in our hospital. A chest computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a tumor of approximately 40 mm in diameter in the right upper lobe, with right axial and mediastinal lymph node metastases, and pleural effusion . According to the findings of a transbronchial lung biopsy and systemic survey, he was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma corresponding to clinical T4N3M1c (stage IVB: 8th edition of UICC TNM staging). An epidermal growth factor receptor mutation and rearranged anaplastic lymphoma kinase genes were not detected. His tumor had invaded the superior vena cava (SVC), leading to the swelling of his right arm and face, suggesting SVC syndrome. He was treated with palliative radiotherapy consisting of a total dose of 30 Gy for SVC syndrome. After irradiation, the size of the tumor in the right upper lobe was slightly decreased . Immunohistochemistry using the 22C-3 antibody revealed the high expression of PD-L1 and a TPS of 75%. He did not have a personal or family history of any autoimmune conditions and autoimmune related antibodies such as anti Jo-1 antibody, anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody, anti-thyroid stimulating hormone antibody, free T3, free T4, rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody, antinuclear antibody and anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody did not show abnormal findings. Subsequently, pembrolizumab (200 mg/body, every 3 weeks) was initiated as the first-line therapy. Approximately 2.5 months after treatment with pembrolizumab, he presented with an asymptomatic, poorly demarcated 1–3 cm erythematous plaque over the right trunk of his body, which gradually developed in size . He had no symptoms and his blood examination test results showed no remarkable changes. Therefore, pembrolizumab therapy was continued. Histopathologic examination from a skin biopsy showed ectatic dermal lymphatics with intraluminal aggregations of histiocytes , which were positive for CD68 and lymphatic vessels that were positive for podoplanin (D2–40) . We ultimately diagnosed him as ILH based on the clinical and histopathological findings. RF and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody were checked after the appearance of erythematous plaques; however, they were negative. Laboratory results revealed that TNF-α levels were increased after 2 months of pembrolizumab treatment . After 4 cycles of pembrolizumab treatment, the size of the tumor in right upper lobe had decreased. However, the tumor in the axial lymph node progressed and his right arm swelling worsened. Therefore, the treatment was changed to cisplatin (75 mg/m2) and pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) as second-line therapy. After 2 cycles of chemotherapy, he maintained a partial response without any severe adverse events and ILH was gradually resolved with topical steroid therapy. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_159_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_159_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ba54f1a487cc7ce46eef29c1218947a8d070cb6a --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_159_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 44-year-old Japanese man with well-controlled hypertension, and without any history of renal dysfunction or urinary abnormalities presented with a fever and pharyngeal pain.

A chest X-ray, electrocardiography, and abdominal ultrasound were performed, but did not show any apparent abnormalities. +The patient’s initial laboratory test results are summarized in Table . He showed nephritic urinary abnormalities and severe kidney failure (urinary protein 3+, urinary occult blood 3+, serum creatinine 5.46 mg/dL). His CRP (4.05 mg/dL), antistreptolysin-O titer (3440 IU/mL), antistreptokinase titer (40,960 IU/mL) and gamma globulins (IgG/IgA/IgM: 2130/660/50 mg/dL) were increased. His complement C3 level was low (28.8 mg/dL), while C4 level was normal. Autoantibodies, such as the antinuclear antibody, anti–double-stranded DNA antibody, and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody were undetectable. The rapid antigen test on a throat swab sample demonstrated positivity for group A beta-hemolytic Streptococcus (Streptococcus pyogenes). Urinary pneumococcal (Streptococcus pneumoniae) antigen was negative. Thus, the patient had developed acute nephritic syndrome with severe renal insufficiency following an antecedent pharyngitis with Streptococcus pyogenes after a latent period of approximately 3 weeks, and a clinical diagnosis of severe PSAGN was made. +The patient’s clinical course is summarized in Fig. . Symptomatic treatment was initially performed, but as the patient had a mild fever and high CRP level, 2 g of ceftriaxone was administered every 24 h in consideration of a possible latent infection. Although the patient’s kidney function gradually improved, the severe hematuria continued. Moreover, his hemoglobin level and platelet count decreased. Hemolytic anemia was suspected because his haptoglobin level was less than 10 mg/dL, and LDH was high at 514 IU/L. Hemolytic anemia (Hb: 8.8 g/dL), thrombocytopenia (Plt: 9.2 × 104 μL), and severe renal failure, with minimal abnormalities in coagulation tests suggested a complication of TMA. The plasma level of ADAMTS-13 activity was normal (88%). Stool culture and assays for Shiga-like toxin and an O157 LPS antibody, respectively, were negative. Thus, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli-associated hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) were unlikely. Meanwhile, the direct Coombs test was transiently positive, i.e., it was positive when performed on hospital day 11, whereas that performed on hospital day 21 was negative. A renal biopsy was performed after improvement in the patient’s anemia and thrombocytopenia, after a blood and fresh frozen plasma transfusion on hospital day 18. +Light microscopy analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue (FFPE) sections of renal biopsy containing 11 glomeruli demonstrated no sclerosis or crescents, but diffuse and global glomerular endocapillary proliferation with massive infiltration of neutrophils was observed . The glomerular massive infiltration of neutrophils was further confirmed by chloroesterase staining . On the other hand, marked infiltration of inflammatory cells (consisted mainly of mononuclear cells without eosinophils) in the tubulointerstitial area, with tubulitis, capillaritis, and interstitial inflammation was observed . Immunofluorescence analysis of fresh frozen tissue sections demonstrated strong glomerular C3 deposition along the capillary walls , but no immunoglobulin or C1q deposition (data not shown). Electron microscopy showed many subepithelial humps . +We also analyzed the presence of NAPlr, a nephritogenic protein isolated from Streptococcus pyogenes, and performed in situ zymography for plasmin activity on serial sections of fresh frozen tissue. NAPlr deposition and associated plasmin activity were observed in glomeruli with a similar staining pattern , supporting the histological diagnosis of PSAGN . Thus, histologically, glomerular lesions of this patient were typical of PSAGN. On the other hand, the severe tubulointerstitial changes that were observed are not the usual histological findings of PSAGN. Therefore, to evaluate the pathogenesis of TMA in a patient with a transiently positive direct Coombs test, we analyzed the FFPE sections of renal biopsy with fluorescein isothiocyanate-labelled peanut lectin (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA), which is known to have strong and specific binding affinity for T-antigen [, ]. We found the specific binding of peanut lectin to some tubular epithelial cells and vascular endothelial cells in the cortical tubulointerstitial area, whereas such binding was not observed in glomeruli in the same field or in a similar area of a normal control kidney . Furthermore, staining for IgM and T-antigen on serial sections of fresh frozen renal biopsy tissue demonstrated IgM deposition in the T-antigen-exposed sites . In addition, multiple staining for CD3, CD68, peanut lectin, and chloroesterase (a neutrophil marker) on fresh frozen tissue sections revealed massive accumulation of CD3-positive T cells and CD68-positive macrophages around the peanut lectin-positive tubulointerstitial lesions. In contrast, there was minimal infiltration of neutrophils in these area . +The patient began steroid pulse therapy with methylprednisolone (500 mg/day for 3 days) from hospital day 31, followed by oral prednisolone (30 mg/day) before the renal biopsy results were confirmed, because the patient demonstrated severe renal insufficiency and severe hematuria even though active infection was absent and his platelet count had improved. He was well-tolerated for the treatment with few side effects. His serum creatinine level recovered to 2.0 mg/dL. He was discharged from the hospital on day 44 and was followed-up as an outpatient.

In December 2016, he presented to the emergency department with chief complaint of diplopia. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the orbits revealed a mass in the left orbit with involvement of the optic nerve. He was referred to ophthalmology and underwent a lateral orbitotomy and removal of the orbital mass. Pathology showed metastatic small cell carcinoma. A Computed Tomography (CT) scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis and a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans were negative for any intrathoracic mass; however, there were multiple liver lesions and a large pancreatic tail mass. Given these findings his final diagnosis was extrapulmonary high-grade small cell carcinoma of the pancreas. Next Generation Sequencing of his tumor showed an intermediate tumor mutation burden with 9 mutations/megabases and deleterious alterations in TP53, MLL3, MEN1, FAT1, CDKN2A, BCORL1, BCOR, ATRX and TSC2 genes. There is currently no approved targeted therapy for any of these mutations. He was started on chemotherapy with carboplatin and etoposide. He had a partial response (PR) after 2 cycles of chemotherapy. He had disease progression after 6 cycles of chemotherapy with carboplatin and etoposide. He was then started on chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX (5-Fluorouracil, irinotecan, leucovorin and oxaliplatin) as second line therapy. He received four cycles but continued to have disease progression on imaging. He was then treated with carboplatin and paclitaxel but his disease continued to progress with clinical deterioration and significant abdominal pain. At that point, treatment with dual CPI therapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) was pursued given the available data in refractory SCLC. Before the start of this therapy, his CD 4 count was 294 cells/uL with an undetectable HIV viral load (less than 20 copies/ml). He received Nivolumab 1 mg/Kg along with Ipilimumab 3 mg/kg every 3 weeks. After 2 doses of the combination, he developed acute kidney injury with creatinine of 4.2 mg/dl from a baseline of 1.0. The therapy was suspended and he was admitted to the hospital and a renal biopsy was performed which showed severe drug-induced acute interstitial nephritis (AIN). He was treated with high dose steroids; 500 mg of IV methylprednisolone for 3 days followed by a steroid taper. His renal function improved after 4 weeks with return of creatinine to baseline. He was then re-started on single agent Nivolumab at 1 mg/Kg and later ipilimumab at 1 mg/kg was added. The patient had significant clinical improvement soon after starting the dual CPI therapy with resolution of abdominal pain which previously required high-dose opioids.

The TNM classification for NSCLC was cT2N3M1c (OSS, LYM, PER, OTH), stage IVB (eighth edition). Tumor reduction was observed, but pembrolizumab was stopped after three courses owing to drug-induced pneumonitis. Dexamethasone was used for the treatment of pneumonitis. One month after drug withdrawal, the patient was transported to the emergency department of our hospital with the complaint of severe stomachache. On physical examination, he had a rigid abdomen and generalized tenderness. His blood pressure was in the normal range (110/82 mmHg), the heart rate was elevated but regular at 100 beats per minute, and the body temperature was elevated at 38.9 °C. The peripheral capillary oxygen saturation was 98% at room air. Laboratory evaluation showed a high inflammatory response with a white blood cell count of 18,200/mm3 and C-reactive protein level of 20.8 mg/dL. CT examination showed abdominal free air and ascites with perforation of the existing lung adenocarcinoma metastasis . We diagnosed bowel perforation with acute diffuse peritonitis. Emergency laparotomy was performed, and multiple small intestinal metastasis with mesenteric lymph node metastasis and ascites containing intestinal fluid were observed. The perforation site was located in the metastatic jejunum about 40 cm on the anal side from Treitz’s ligament. We resected this part about 20 cm and anastomosed with functional end-to-end anastomosis. There was no complication after surgery, and he was discharged on post-operative day 15. Pathological examination indicated lung adenocarcinoma metastasis in the perforated intestine, and the metastasis was partly scarred owing to the effect of pembrolizumab . Tumor cells in the perforation site had a high degree of degeneration and necrosis, and the pathological response for the efficacy of pembrolizumab was grade 1b (Japanese Classification of the Colorectal Carcinoma, seventh edition) . In the perforated part, the tumor cells were observed in all layers, but in the vicinity on the serosa side. Inflammatory change due to enteritis was not found in this site. Pembrolizumab was re-administrated about 1 month after discharge. To prevent drug-induced pneumonitis, dexamethasone was used daily. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1656_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1656_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1c54d040d665b05e4a44c3054ba955e3dc76dbc5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1656_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 34-year-old Caucasian male presented to the emergency department complaining of a 4-day history of unbearable leg pain with diffuse arthralgia, fluctuating low-grade fever with profuse sweating, vomiting and diarrhea without abdominal pain, odynophagia, dry cough, headaches, and fatigue.

Earlier treatments included topical ketoconazole 2% cream, oxiconazole nitrate 1% cream, and permethrin 5% cream. The patient reported that her skin problems had been intermittent over the preceding 3 years. The medical history of this patient revealed end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis, obesity, non-insulin-dependent diabetes, hypertension, recurrent cellulitis, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia. Recently, prior to our consultation, she was diagnosed with bilateral cataracts and mild sensorineural hearing loss in one ear. Diabetes and hypertension were coincidentally diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome at age 29 during an acute illness, and she subsequently began hemodialysis. The patient had frequent admissions thereafter for dialysis catheter site cellulitis and methicillin-resistant S. aureus bacteremia secondary to catheter line infections. The patient has lived with her maternal grandmother since birth and was reportedly in good health until age 29 with no evidence of childhood infections other than the infrequent “cold”.

Moist erosions and bright erythema along many of the proximal nail folds were noted. The nail plates appeared normal except distal onycholysis overlying the plaques. There were crusted papules and erosions diffusely scattered on the face, ears, trunk, and extremities consistent with excoriations. There was no evidence of active tinea at the time of the patient visit. Earlier mineral oil scrapings had revealed multiple live mites and exam was consistent with crusted scabies. A fungal culture from the nail fold grew unidentified, non-Candida yeast. It was recommended to the referring dermatologist that the patient continues topical antifungal treatment as needed and to begin oral ivermectin 0.2 mg/kg daily on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, 22, and 29. An undiagnosed immune syndrome with cutaneous-specific immunodeficiency was suspected, so we referred the patient to medical genetics for evaluation. The laboratory results and hospital admission notes from her community physician were reviewed. Importantly, the patient was HIV negative, had a normal serum protein electrophoresis interpretation, and was negative for antinuclear antibodies. Electrolyte panels were consistent with renal failure and routine dialysis, but no renal biopsy had been performed. Although the white blood cell count would fluctuate between admissions, the patient’s lymphocyte count was consistently within normal limits.

The web ANNOVAR package was used to select somatic mutations located in the exonic sequences and to predict their functional consequences . In order to obtain reliable and robust mutation calling, the following variants were eliminated: (i) read depth fewer than 20 in either the tumor or matched constitutional tissues; (ii) polymorphisms listed in the population databases of East Asians with a minor allele frequency 0.1% or more; and (iii) variant allele frequencies less than 5%.

The dog was treated at various first opinion practices by means of sedated explorations of the extra- and intraoral lesions, where foreign plant material was retrieved on multiple occasions. A combination of primary closure and placement of Penrose drains was attempted, samples were collected for microbial culture tests, and analgesia and antimicrobial therapy based on culture results were prescribed. Over the course of 3 years, the following antimicrobials were prescribed: amoxicillin/clavulanate, ampicillin, amikacin, cefovecin, cephalexin, minocycline, and orbifloxacin. Due to the progressively worsening nature of the lesions, size, and invasion into deeper tissues after attempted repairs, the dog was referred. +On presentation, the dog appeared clinically stable. A large (20 × 20 mm) draining tract overlying the bridge of the nose between the eyes was observed (i.e., affecting the frontal, nasal, and maxillary bones). There were four additional cutaneous draining tracts noted approximately 4 × 4 mm ventral to the left eye, to the lateral side of the right eye, between the eyes, and on the medial aspect of the right eye . An intraoral examination revealed an oronasal fistula extending from the right maxillary canine tooth to the right maxillary fourth premolar tooth . The right maxillary buccal frenulum remained intact. There was mucopurulent discharge and crusting surrounding the multiple draining tracts. There was bilateral mandibular lymphadenopathy. Incidental physical examination findings included cataracts with nuclear sclerosis, iris atrophy, heterochromia iridum, and anisocoria. The hematologic assessment revealed leukocytosis (14,900/μL; reference interval 6,000–13,000/μL) characterized by mild neutrophilia (11,507/μL; reference interval 3,000–10,500/μL).

The dog underwent general anesthesia for conventional computed tomography (CT) (HiSpeed FX/i or LightSpeed16, GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI) of the skull with and without contrast (880 mg/kg, IV, iopamidol). Computed tomographic findings included multifocal to coalescing lucent osseous lesions predominantly affecting the cortical bone of the right rostral maxilla (,). There was a resultant large draining tract affecting the nasal, frontal, and maxillary bones that communicated with the cutaneous surface . Differential diagnosis included a neoplastic process (i.e., squamous cell carcinoma, osteosarcoma, and round cell tumor) or an infectious etiology (i.e., coccidiomycosis, aspergillosis, and bacterial infection); a component of osteomyelitis associated with the nasal fistulae was anticipated. There was a mildly contrast-enhancing soft tissue structure in the right frontal sinus (which could reflect a neoplastic mass or granuloma). The right mandibular and medial retropharyngeal lymph nodes were enlarged (it was unknown whether they were reactive or metastatic). Finally, severe right temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis was observed, which may be secondary to prior trauma or infection of the joint. The CT was followed by rhinoscopy and was performed using a combination of intra- and extraoral (trans-fistulous) approaches. The findings confirmed most of the previously described osseous and soft tissue lesions noted on CT. No gross lesions consistent with fungal plaques were found. Following rhinoscopy, samples of the lesions were surgically harvested utilizing rongeurs and iris scissors for histopathological evaluation, as well as microbial and fungal testing.

He suffered multiple injuries from severe impact on the right rear of his waist after driving an out of control forklift truck. The patient presented with excruciating pain in the back, chest, and abdomen, and the muscle strength of both lower limbs was decreased (3/5 strength in the left lower limb and 2/5 strength in the right lower limb); both lower limb extremity paresthesias and urinary retention was observed. Immediately after the injury, the patient was sent to our hospital by ambulance for treatment and underwent x-ray and computed tomography (CT) scan ; the imaging examinations revealed the left 10th and 11th rib, bilateral transverse processes (L2–L5 levels), sacrum, and coccyx and right ilium fractures, and L5 vertebra and S1 vertebra dislocation and separation. A lumbosacral vertebra magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a complete rupture of the L5–S1 intervertebral disc; tear in anterior longitudinal ligament, posterior longitudinal ligament, ligamentum flavum, interspinous ligament, supraspinous ligament, and dural sac; and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) seepage into the tissue space behind the lumbar spine . The patient was healthy previously and had no other diseases or syndromes. Traumatic lumbosacral spondyloptosis diagnosis was established. On admission, the patient was conscious, the blood pressure (BP) was 85/60 mmHg, and heart rate was 78 beats/min; intravenous rehydration therapy was immediately started because of a low BP and then the BP gradually returned to the normal level. The severity of the spinal injury was graded according to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grading scale, and the patient was classified as grade C. The visual analog scale (VAS) score was 9. +The patient was sent to the operating room for surgical treatment 10 days after admission. During the operation, we found that the subcutaneous soft tissue and muscle behind the lumbar spine were seriously injured, the L5 vertebra were severely dislocated to the front-left side, the L5–S1 facet joint was fractured and dislocated, the bilateral inferior articular processes of L5 were locked and located anterior to the S1 vertebra , severe dural sac tear had occurred at the L5–S1 level, and only part of cauda equina and filum terminale are continuous; the L5–S1 intervertebral disc had ruptured and prolapsed into the spinal canal. Specific procedures were performed as follows. After successful anesthesia, the patient was placed in the prone position. In the surgical area, routine disinfection was carried out and laid with sterile sheets. A 20–25 cm incision was made at the midline of the back using the L4 spinous process as the center. The skin was cut parallel to the spine, then the lumbodorsal fascia was stripped and the paravertebral muscle was bluntly stripped to completely expose the spinous process and bilateral vertebral plate of L3–S2 vertebrae, and the spinous process of L5–S1 vertebrae was removed. Pilot holes for pedicle screws placement from L3 through S1 and also for the S2 alar-iliac (S2AI) screws entry site were marked; bilateral L3, L4, L5, and S1 pedicle screws of appropriate length were then inserted, and dual S2AI screws placement bilaterally were performed. A pre-bent short titanium rod was temporarily installed to distract L5–S1 intervertebral space. We found that the bilateral inferior articular processes of L5 was still dislocated in front of the S1 vertebra after C-arm fluoroscopy, and it is particularly difficult to perform the reduction with a screw distractor; so we decided to resect bilateral inferior articular processes of L5 with the assistance of the ultrasonic bone scalpel . Reduction was attempted again, and the spinal column getting back into normal alignment was observed after C-arm fluoroscopy . Then, bilateral laminectomies, facetectomies, decompression of the cauda equina, and discectomy of L5–S1 were performed. Interbody bone graft fusion was performed by implanting an interbody fusion cage filled with bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and local bone at the L5/S1 level. Finally, the dura with artificial dura mater were repaired. Bilateral lumbar drainage tubes were placed at the end of procedures. The operative procedure was about 3 h and intraoperative blood loss was about 800 ml. +After the surgical operation was completed, the patient was transferred to the postanesthesia care unit and then to the orthopedics wards. We found the patient had CSF leakage on the first postoperative day and presented with mild headaches and light-headedness. The patient's low back pain and numbness of both lower limbs were effectively improved; however, the muscle strength of both lower limbs did not significantly improve. The VAS back pain decreased from 9 preoperatively to 4 postoperatively. The ASIA grade remained in grade C after surgery. The right lumbar drainage tube and the Foley catheter were removed on the third postoperative day, and then the left lumbar drainage tube was removed and the skin was closed using 2–0 nylon sutures on postoperative day 7. The patient was then transferred to the rehabilitation hospital for hyperbaric oxygen and rehabilitation treatment on postoperative day 10. At 1-month follow-up, the patient's muscle strength of bilateral hip flexors and knee extensors improved gradually, but the muscle strength of right foot dorsiflexion and plantar flexion did not show significant improvement. The lumbar x-ray, CT scan, and MRI showed that the internal fixation and lumbar interbody cages were in good position, and there was a small amount of fluid behind the lumbar spine . At the 6-month postoperative follow-up, the patient had no numbness of both lower limbs, and the symptom of urinary retention was significantly improved. The patient exhibited 4/5 strength in the left lower limb, 2/5 strength in right foot dorsiflexion and plantar flexion, and 4/5 strength in right hip flexor and knee extensor.

One year before the initial visit, her best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.9 OS, and fluorescence angiography (FA) showed leakage of fluorescence at the macula, which indicated the possibility of central serous chorioretinopathy at the clinic. One month before the initial visit, SRD was observed with BCVA of 0.5 OS, and local photocoagulation was performed. However, due to residual SRD and worsening visual impairment OS, she was referred to our hospital. Her medical history was limited to the inguinal hernia surgery 20 years ago, and she had neither a smoking habit nor family history. At the initial examination, her BCVA was 1.5 oculus dexter (OD) and 0.8 OS, with normal intraocular pressure oculi uterque (OU). Slit-lamp microscopy did not detect any findings OU. Color fundus photography (CFP) showed no abnormality OD , while an irregular brownish lesion was noted around the macula OS . Therefore, coloration of the posterior pole in the left eye was generally more yellowish-brown than the right eye. Although swept-source (SS)-OCT images (DRI OCT Triton; Topcon Inc., Tokyo, Japan) demonstrated no abnormalities of retino-choroidal structures OD , SS-OCT showed the markedly hyporeflective choroidal structure OS as well as SRD where the retinal thickness was preserved. Moreover, the lumen of the choriocapillaris was suggested to be compressed beneath the RPE layer OS . FAF indicated enlarged macular hypoautofluorescence suggesting chronic RPE damage OS . There was no choroidal elevation on B-mode echography OU . FA revealed reduced choroidal perfusion in the macula in the early phase and scattered focal hyperfluorescent spots that intensified from early to late phase OS . Indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) demonstrated serpiginous-like fluorescence blockade throughout OS . There was no obvious abnormal shadow on orbital magnetic resonance imaging. Based on the clinical findings, her left eye was diagnosed with choroidal melanocytosis together with SRD. Central serous chorioretinopathy was ruled out by the absence of choroidal thickening on SS-OCT, descending tract on FAF, and choroidal vascular hyperpermeability on ICGA. The absence of choroidal elevation observed by fundus examination and echography, and irregular melanin pigmentation of the choroid supported the diagnosis of choroidal melanocytosis rather than choroidal nevus. She was observed without any treatment. Fifty-eight months after the initial diagnosis, her BCVA was 0.5, CFP showed slightly darker macular pigmentation, and SRD persisted on SS-OCT. +The institutional review board of Hokkaido University waived the need for ethical assessment of this clinical study because of it being a single case report with a non-invasive study. This study adhered to the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki. +This study evaluated the alterations of choroidal blood flow of choroidal melanocytosis using LSFG. Relative blood flow values were obtained as the mean blur rate (MBR) after quantitative measurement of blood flow velocity by LSFG software (LSFG-NAVI, version 3.1.39.2, Softcare Ltd., Fukuoka, Japan) according to previous reports [, ]. The pupils of the patient were dilated with 0.4% tropicamide (Mydrin-M; Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Osaka) before examination. Ophthalmic examinations were conducted after pupils of both eyes had completely lost their light reflex. The macula in the LSFG images was manually marked and vessels were automatically segmented using threshold values defined by the system software (LSFG Analyzer, version 3.0.47.0). The macular area was identified by an experienced examiner by comparing the initial FA images and FAF images. Since LSFG images also show retinal blood vessels, the macular area was determined by comparing their length and vascular runways with the FA images. A circle of about 750 μm in diameter to the fovea was defined as the region of interest on LSFG , based on FA findings. Four to five consecutive measurements were taken for each circle, and the mean values were used for analysis. All examinations were conducted by a single experienced operator. Ocular perfusion pressure (OPP) was calculated using the patient’s blood pressure and intraocular pressure, as previously described [, ]. +The MBR values OD are shown in Fig. B as follows: 10.9, 10.6, 10.1, and 9.0 arbitrary units (AU) at 18, 24, 36, and 58 months after the initial visit, respectively.

The referral aimed to seek specialized periodontal treatment due to significant periodontal tissue destruction caused by ligneous periodontitis associated with plasminogen deficiency. Herein, we present the sequence of events leading to the diagnosis of plasminogen deficiency during the patient’s childhood and her subsequent presentation to our department in 2019. +The patient initially received a diagnosis of ligneous gingivitis linked to plasminogen deficiency at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Okayama University Hospital, in 2008, when she was just nine years old. At that time, her blood plasminogen activity was as low as 10%, and pseudomembranous white lesions were evident on the gingiva and eye . Dental radiographs taken in 2012, when she was 12 years old, unveiled signs of vertical bone resorption in the lower first molar, indicative of ligneous periodontitis accompanied by alveolar bone destruction . Despite receiving regular supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) at her referring dental office for eight years, she was referred back to Okayama University Hospital in 2019 due to the remarkable extent of alveolar bone destruction for her age. +Upon re-referral in 2019, her plasminogen activity was less than 25%, confirming the diagnosis of plasminogen deficiency. However, other markers, such as prothrombin time-international normalized ratio (PT-INR) and D-dimer, were within normal ranges, indicating no predisposition to bleeding. In terms of oral health, despite maintaining good oral hygiene (O’Leary plaque control record (PCR): 11.6%), the patient exhibited marginal gingival redness in the molar region, gingival hyperplasia on the buccal gingiva of the maxillary anterior teeth and mandibular molars, and deep periodontal pockets primarily in the molar area (4 mm < probing pocket depth (PPD): 33.4%; periodontal inflamed surface area (PISA): 1,025 mm2). Dental radiographic examination revealed horizontal bone resorption of approximately one-third of the root and vertical bone resorption in all molars . Histological examination of the gingival hyperplastic area demonstrated fibrin deposition and epithelial degeneration with neutrophilic infiltration . Based on the above intraoral and radiographic findings, blood test results, and histological tissue examination, she was again diagnosed with ligneous periodontitis (Stage III, Grade C). +We analyzed genomic sequences using targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) with the hybrid capture method to explore potential germline variants underlying plasminogen deficiency. The analysis focused on a several-gene panel, including F12 and PLG, associated with plasminogen deficiency. Rare variants in F12 and PLG were identified through comparison with population database such as the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Specifically, the F12 variant A343P had been registered with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in the ClinVar database, with an allele frequency of 3.00 × 10–3. PLG c.581A > T (p.Asp194Val) was registered as benign in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 780,122), with an allele frequency of 7.68 × 10–4. PLG c.1468C > T (p.Arg490*) was not reported in the ClinVar database, and its allele frequency in the gnomAD database was 1.19 × 10–5 . The PLG gene exhibited a c.581A > T missense mutation in this patient and a c.1468C > T stop-gain mutation . These mutations resulted in the truncation of the PLG protein and the loss of its plasminogen activator cleavage site . The patient had no family history of plasminogen deficiency or Behçet’s disease . +Initial periodontal treatment for the patient involved non-surgical scaling and root planning (SRP) to eliminate the subgingival source of infection. Additionally, the patient used a mouthpiece to alleviate occlusal forces. Subsequent SPT was provided at short intervals from 2021 to stabilize the periodontal condition, although gingival hyperplasia and swelling showed minimal improvement. Periodontal surgery was not considered due to the potential for increased fibrin deposition with gingival incision. The patient’s oral condition at SPT was as follows: PCR 22.3%, BOP 49.4%, 4 mm < PPD 23.8%, PISA 981.4 mm2 . +Despite maintaining stability systemically and orally, the patient presented to the Department of General Medicine, Okayama University Hospital, in 2022 with complaints of fever (body temperature (BT) 40.0 °C), diarrhea, and general malaise. Blood tests revealed a significantly elevated white blood cell (WBC) count (21.09 × 103 cells/µL) and C-reactive protein (CRP) level (20.24 mg/dL), leading to urgent hospital admission for further evaluation and treatment. Initial suspicion was directed towards infectious diseases, prompting the initiation of antibiotic therapy (tazobactam/piperacillin hydrate, 4.5 g × 3 times/day). However, the patient rapidly developed additional systemic symptoms, including hematochezia, vulvar ulcers, and an erythema nodosum-like rash on the extremities. In the oral cavity, marginal gingival hyperplasia, erosions, and multiple aphthous stomatitis were observed. Additionally, the tongue was coated with a thick biofilm . Subsequently, she was diagnosed with intestinal Behçet’s disease based on the primary symptoms of erythema nodosum-like skin rash on the extremities, recurrent aphthous ulcers on the oral mucosa, and atypical genital ulcer. Secondary symptoms, including vasculitis and gastrointestinal involvement, were confirmed through histological examination of the erythematous nodular area. Seven days after hospitalization, the presence of HLA-B51 antigens was detected, further supporting this diagnosis. +Prompt administration of oral prednisolone (PSL) at 1 mg/kg/day was initiated upon the diagnosis of Behçet’s disease. Oral hygiene was maintained during hospitalization, and mucosal treatment was provided using glycerin mouthwashes. On the 15th day after hospitalization, with reduced systemic inflammation due to PSL treatment (CRP 0.18 mg/dL, WBC 9,330 cells/µL, BT 36.9 °C), aphthous ulceration, gingival hyperplasia, and erosion areas showed improvement, and the biofilm on the tongue disappeared. However, redness in the pharyngeal region persisted. Consequently, the PSL dosage was gradually reduced to 30 mg/day. On the 45th day of hospitalization, the patient’s overall condition had significantly improved, leading to her discharge from the hospital (CRP 0.02 mg/dL, WBC 13,101 cells/µL, BT 36.6 °C). Around the same time, aphthous ulceration in the oral cavity had resolved. Gingival hyperplasia had decreased to a level similar to when she transferred to SPT, though gingival recession seemed to have progressed (PCR 51.8%, BOP 10.7%, 4 mm < PPD 16.7%, PISA 226.4 mm2). Conversely, dental radiographs revealed progressive horizontal alveolar bone resorption (bone resorption of approximately two-thirds of the root of the tooth) compared to the previous assessment . +Following her discharge, the patient initiated the treatment with the anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α antibody drug adalimumab at 40 mg every two weeks. This treatment aimed to decrease reliance on steroids and provide symptom relief through the anti-inflammatory effects of the medication. The patient experienced intermittent flares and remissions of systemic inflammation after hospital discharge, although to a lesser extent than during the initial hospitalization period. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1862_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1862_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..950a6795fb64c02c88fbb256c398b49d1abc15ef --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1862_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +A 57 years-old male patient presented with back pain, general discomfort, polydipsia, polyuria, fatigue and recent weight loss of 10 kg.

PTHrP was normal and although our patient had some osteodense skeletal metastases, these bone lesions alone could not explain his marked hypercalcemia. However, markedly increased calcitriol levels up to 134.3 ng/L (normal: 20.0–80.0 ng/L) were detected. We hypothesized that overproduction of this active form of vitamin D by the pNET was the cause of the HCM. +Initial treatment with lanreotide, a non-radioactive SSA, and everolimus, an inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), resulted in morphologically stable disease, but there was no effect on the hypercalcemia nor on the associated symptoms.

Despite its low activity against Fusarium , amphotericin B remains the drug of choice. Voriconazole is licensed for the treatment of fusariosis based on in vitro data and a series of case reports with a reported response rate of ~40% . Posaconazole also has potential for therapy of systemic fusariosis . In any case, responses obtained with monotherapies remain too low and unsatisfactory. +We decided to treat our patient with amphotericin B and caspofungin for two reasons: (i) In our view amphotericin B remains the mainstay of therapy for fusariosis in pediatric patients; experience with voriconazole in this patient segment is limited [-]; (ii) Concurrent antifungal therapy is now generally considered an alternative way of improving outcome in difficult-to-treat invasive mycoses. In a recent in vitro study amphotericin B and voriconazole rendered mainly additive or subadditive interactions against Fusarium spp. . Yet, the concern remains that combining amphotericin B and azoles may lead to antagonism. In addition to the azole inhibition of the synthesis of amphotericin B's pharmacological target ergosterol, amphotericin B-related damage to the fungal cell membrane may interfere with the influx of azoles . In vitro caspofungin-inactive against Fusarium-showed synergistic or synergistic-to-additive interactions with amphotericin B for at least half of the Fusarium isolates . By inhibiting cell wall synthesis, caspofungin may presumably enhance the penetration of amphotericin B . +We hypothesize that combination antifungal therapy likely contributed to the sucessful treatment of our patient's severe invasive fusariosis, since clinical improvement only became evident after initiating caspofungin. Yet, the effect of caspofungin in the successful outcome of our case is not completely clear. The clinical response observed could also be the result of prolonged administration of liposomal amphotericin B and the lack of severe neutropenia. Finally, the administration of suppressive voriconazole and the early re-initiation of chemotherapy allowed by rapid infection control probably also contributed to the good long-term outcome. Of note, there have been a few case reports of response to caspofungin in combination with amphotericin B [,] and as monotherapy , although in some of these reports there was a clear association of response to recovery from neutropenia. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1982_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1982_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d506ef0fddc397baf0d435cab995904cb1e10a68 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1982_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 53-year-old south Asian male presented to the accident and emergency department with an extended history of chest pain and numbness in the left arm lasting more than 24 hours. His symptoms had initiated whilst driving but resolved on arrival to hospital. There were no abnormal findings on clinical examination (heart rate 65 b.p.m., blood pressure 108/76 mmHg, saturations 98% on air, respiratory rate 16 cycles per minute). +His medical background included type 2 diabetes (2013), hypertension (2014), hypercholesterolaemia (2002), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (2002), and hepatitis B (2002). The patient had two prior admissions with cTnT positive chest pain, in 2002 (1410 ng/L) and 2015 (1540 ng/L), during which coronary angiography demonstrated unobstructed coronary anatomy and a diagnosis of probable myocarditis was given on each occasion. +An electrocardiogram (ECG) on admission demonstrated no ischaemic changes . However, an initial cTnT was raised at 1588 ng/L (normal range <15 ng/L) and 1842 ng/L when repeated. This was in the context of a normal renal function [creatinine 102 (normal 62–106 μmol/L)] and a normal haemoglobin (137 g/L). Subsequent serial troponins did not drop below 1600 ng/L (timeline). Due to this stagnation, a creatine kinase level was measured and found to be only borderline raised at 338 U/L (normal 40–320 U/L). An echocardiogram was also performed which showed no regional wall motion abnormalities and a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction of 60–65%. +Owing to the patient’s clinical picture, a CT aortagram was performed which excluded an aortic dissection and within its limits, a pulmonary embolus. Thus, a working diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome was suggested and he underwent a coronary angiogram. This showed only mild disease in the right coronary artery (, Video S1) and left anterior descending (, Video S2) whilst the left main stem and circumflex vessels (, Video S3) were unobstructed. Subsequently a cardiac MRI with gadolinium was performed which was unremarkable and confirmed preserved bi-ventricular function (, Videos S4 and S5) with no evidence of a scar, fibrosis, or oedema (, Video S6). Acute myocardial injury was therefore considered unlikely. Furthermore, he remained on telemetry and despite 7 days of cardiac monitoring, no arrhythmia was documented. After extensive investigations had excluded myocardial damage and any other clinical condition as a likely cause of the troponin elevation, the biochemistry laboratory was contacted for assistance in elucidating the cause of the persistently elevated cTnT. +Initially, a measurement of cTnI was performed (Abbott diagnostics hs cTnI, LOD 2 ng/L 10% CV = 4.7 ng/L, 99th percentile URL = 26.2 ng/L) on the cTnT sample value 1674 ng/L, and was <2 ng/L, therefore excluding myocardial injury. Analytical interference causing a false-positive cTnT result was then suspected. +Serial dilution of the sample using troponin free diluent was linear (recovery sample 73.1–94.7%, control 81.5–109.2%) although recovery at a one in 10 dilution was <100% compared with the control. This suggested that an analytical interference from an interfering antibody (anti-mouse) was unlikely. The Roche cTnT assay uses fragment antigen binding portions of 2 cTnT-specific mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against epitopes in the central region of human cTnT. +One control (Randox IA3, Randox, County Antrim), two control patients (cTnT 2091 and 1637 ng/L) and two patient samples (cTnT 1745 and 1697 ng/L) were diluted one in two with troponin free diluent and with polyethylene glycol (25% w/v). Samples were incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes and centrifuged at 14°000 g for 5 min. Troponin T was analysed in the supernatant. Recovery was 705.8/1104 (63.9%) for the control material. For two control patient’s recovery was 687/807.4 (85.1%) and 910/963.4 (94.5%). For the patient’s day 4 sample recovery was 10.8/794.4 (1.4%) and for day 5 8.7/770.3 (1.1%). The presence of a macro form of cTnT was therefore confirmed. Subsequent electrophoresis using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and western blotting (immunofixation) with the M7 MAb anti-human cTnT (donated by Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) against human cTnT and mouse anti-human immunoglobulin-G (IgG; IG266, Abcam, Cambridge, UK) revealed a cTnT-IgG complex . +Following this diagnosis, reassurance was given and he was discharged home with routine follow-up arranged. A subsequent outpatient 24-hour Holter demonstrated only sinus rhythm, which reaffirmed the unlikelihood of a cardiac arrhythmia and a dobutamine stress echocardiogram found no evidence of inducible ischaemia with a normal functioning heart. He was safely discharged from the cardiology services. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1983_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1983_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..a47959100d73247560ed7d20d062e00a205aa0e3 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1983_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +We present a case of a 13-year-old boy, admitted to hospital for planned neurosurgical procedure of clipping aneurysm of left middle cerebral artery (arteria cerebri media [ACM]).

During the first few days after its introduction, the FGM system exhibited discrepancies with the results from the conventional SMBG method, especially when her glucose levels were <70 mg/dL or >180 mg/dL. Therefore, she measured her glucose levels using both methods when her glucose levels were abnormally high or low. The patient also experienced difficulty consuming the second breakfast because of the short interval between the first and second breakfasts. Thus, her intake was revised to 1960 kcal/day (53% carbohydrates, 21% protein, and 26% fat) in 4 meals: breakfast at 8 AM, first lunch at noon, second lunch at 3 PM, and dinner at 6 PM. The re-distributed meals and flash glucose monitoring system allowed the patient to achieve good glycemic control, and the doses of the injected insulin decreased to 35 units and then to 18 units . Her HbA1c level was maintained, ranging from 5.1% to 5.2% (these values were considered as a reference due to her anemia), and her glycoalbumin levels ranged from 10.6% to 11.6% during pregnancy. She gained 10.5 kg during her pregnancy and subsequently delivered twins via Caesarean procedure (2280 g and 2778 g) at 37 weeks and 1 day of gestation, without any adverse events or hypoglycemia. After the delivery, the patient stopped all insulin injections and had glucose levels of 70–140 mg/dL throughout the day with a normal puerperium diet (2200 kcal/day in 3 meals) . The patient and her twins were discharged in healthy states at 7 days after the delivery. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2033_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2033_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..704a534cd69b46341ef6409cf69144116278c640 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2033_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 66-year-old female had complained of intermittent discomfort and pain in the right gluteal area.

The epileptic seizures were slightly alleviated after treatment. The main manifestation was the twitching with spasms of the left upper and lower extremities, each lasting several seconds to more than ten seconds, attacking several times a day, without alteration of consciousness. Then the patient was discharged home. +Two months later, the patient presented to the hospital for a second time. He had suffered from frequent attacks of the left limb. Physical examination showed no abnormalities in the nervous system. Results from routine biochemical and cytological examination of the cerebrospinal fluid were normal. Anti-NMDAR titers were 1:32(+++) in CSF and 1:32(++) in serum. The brain MRI showed bilateral frontal parietal lesions enlarged slightly and the enhancement became more obvious than before . The patient was treated for a second time with intravenous injection of methylprednisolone (80 mg/d × 15d) → oral prednisolone acetate tablets (40 mg qd), immunoglobulins (25 g/d × 5d), oral azathioprine (50 mg qd), oral antiepileptic (oxcarbazepine 600 mg bid, Debakin 250 mg qm, 500 mg qn) treatment. The epileptic seizures were slightly alleviated after the treatment, 2~3 times a day, the twitching with spasms of the left limb typically lasts a few seconds, without loss of consciousness. Then the patient was discharged home. +Four months later, the patient presented at the hospital for a third time. He complained of weakness after frequent partial seizures in his right limb. Muscle Strength Grading Scale of the right lower extremity was 4/5 and physical examination of the remaining nervous system showed no significant abnormalities. The diagnosis was simple partial status epilepticus and Todd’s Paralysis. Epilepsy was controlled on diazepam injection therapy and the muscle strength of the right lower extremity returned to normal. The brain MRI reexamination indicated that the frontal parietal lesions enlarged and one new lesion appeared in the left basal ganglia with some mild mass effect, significantly enhanced . Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) showed partial ablation of white matter fibro tracts in the bilateral frontal parietal lobe and the left basal ganglia lesion, reduction of FA and the surrounding fibro tracts slightly compressed . Arterial spin labeling (ASL) MR imaging showed that bilateral frontoparietal and left basal ganglia lesions had abnormally high perfusion . Surgical biopsy of the right parietal lesion was performed under general anesthesia on November 21, 2016. The lesions were pale red, slightly tough, abundant blood supply and without clear border. The size of the removed lesion was about 1.5 × 1.5 × 1.0 cm. The astrocytoma (WHO II-III) was confirmed on histopathologic findings. Patients transferred to the oncology department for further radiotherapy and chemotherapy. One month later, the patient died. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2116_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2116_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..02380d5e7298afbdca96077a30d89b0287da9c5c --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2116_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +We report a 26-year-old female and her 28-year-old healthy male partner, who experienced difficulties in becoming pregnant since 2015.

No signs of Horner's syndrome, dysphagia, cough or dyspnoe were evident. CT scan demonstrated a retroclavicular soft tissue tumour with a cranio-caudal extension of up to 4.5 cm which partially displaced the trachea to the left and compressed the subclavian vein. An adjacent tumour of dimensions 3.5 × 3.5 cm not clearly separated from the before mentioned tumour was located at the inferior right thyroid lobe, compressing the internal jugular vein. Near the confluence of these vessels a subtotal occlusion of the brachiocephalic vein is revealed .

There were no clear signs of tumour infiltration of the brachial plexus, brachial artery, esophagus or trachea. The preoperative chest x-ray displayed a right sided upper mediastinal enlargement . Additional venous angiography indicated a filiform stenosis of the subclavian vein. Within the brachicephalic vein a longitudinal, irregular partial displacement of the vascular lumen was depicted. Extensive blood flow in cervical and supraclavicular collateral vessels was present. Neither MRI, CT nor angiogram allowed for clear distinction of the intravascular process whether it was caused by intravascular tumour growth or thrombosis. Incisional biopsy one month prior to the oncological tumour resection revealed the histopathological diagnosis of a leiomyosarcoma. +Surgical exposure was obtained via a triangular incision running from behind the right ear, along the anterior axillary line and across the sternum. First, the brachial plexus was dissected, the phrenic and recurrent nerves identified and followed distally. The upper border of the tumour became visible at the upper thoracic aperture. The recurrent nerve was observed to run through the tumour capsule. Further preparation was carried out from the distal edge of the wound. The pectoralis major muscle was elevated and care was taken to preserve the vascular pedicle (thoracoacromial A.V.). It was further observed that the first intercostal space was invaded by the tumour. Subsequently a thoracic wall resection including a partial resection of the right clavicle, the right half of the sternum and the costal attachment of the first three ribs was performed uncovering the mediastinum. The vena cava was revealed and trachea dissected. In this area the tumour was in close proximity to the trachea displacing it to the left but without tracheal infiltration.

The remaining tumor left behind was in the left atrioventricular groove, along the hilum of the left lung at the confluence of the pulmonary veins. Total cardiopulmonary bypass time was 320 min and total cross-clamp time was 195 min. Given the long cardiopulmonary bypass time and the significant amount of bleeding from the tumor bed, the patient needed to have coagulopathy corrected after resection, so the chest was left open. On post-operative day 2, the patient returned to the operating room for chest closure. +The postoperative course was uneventful and the patient was discharged on post-operative day 10. Final pathology confirmed the diagnosis of a monophasic synovial sarcoma with a canonical SS18-SSX1/SSX2 gene fusion. Immunohistochemistry found that the tumor was diffusely positive for TLE and negative for CK5/6, AE1/AE3, EMA, and S100. Four months later, the patient remained asymptomatic and had recovered well from surgery. He is currently undergoing concurrent radiation and chemotherapy with oral etoposide and oral cyclophosphamide. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2179_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2179_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..082d4dd56bc8cc7f644555af4297502b79228bd8 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2179_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 37-year old female patient was admitted to the emergency room 24 h after binge eating.

Physical examination at admission revealed hemodynamic stability, sepsis syndrome, and distended abdomen with defense. Laboratory test results showed high lipasemia and acute renal failure. Abdominal Computed Tomography (CT) imaging showed major gastric distension reaching the pelvis and compressing the digestive organs with no signs of pneumoperitoneum. Conservative gastric decompression was started first using a nasogastric tube aspiration that discharged almost 6.5 litres. Twenty-four hours after hospitalization, the patient exhibited tachycardia and hypotension. Increased doses of Noradrenaline were prescribed unsuccessfully. The patient was prepared for urgent laparotomy showing a large gastric distention associated with necrosis. Total gastrectomy and jejunostomy were performed. The patient was discharged 35 days after the surgical intervention. She was referred to the Department of Clinical Nutrition (Rouen, France) for the nutrition rehabilitation. She weighed 40 kg at this time. Enteral nutrition was administrated through the jejunostomy (1500 kcal/day) and well tolerated. Enteral nutrition was progressively relayed with oral nutritional supplements associated with oral food intakes. The patient reported reduction in bulimic symptoms, structured meals and weight stabilisation around 48 kg (body mass index=17.6kg/m²). At the time of first referral in our institution, the patient did not declare any fear for gaining weight or any body shape concern. She was happy with gaining weight thanks to jejunal tube feeding. On following consultations, eating disorders were routinely screened with by the self-administered French version of the SCOFF questionnaire (SCOFF-F) . This validated test is routinely used, composed of five dichotomous questions. One point is given for each “yes” answer. At least two positive answers indicate a positive SCOFF score with a sensitivity of 88.2% and a specificity of 92.5%. This screening consistently resulted in 5 negative answers. One year after total gastrectomy, jejunostomy was finally removed and the patient returned to work. She was admitted to the Digestive surgery department for occlusive syndrome, 5 years after gastrectomy. Laparoscopic viscerolysis has been done, with no complications. The patient has been discharged and maintained sufficient oral food intake. Today, she is still followed-up in the Nutrition unit at least once a year.

Colonoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor with depression in the anterior wall of the distal rectum . The tumor was diagnosed as a rectal NET following pathological examination of the biopsy specimen, and he was referred to our hospital for further examination. Endorectal endoscopic ultrasound revealed a 14-mm oval tumor with deep invasion to the submucosa layer. The tumor was located at 1.8 cm from the anal verge. Systematic computed tomography (CT) revealed no evidence of regional lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis such as that to the liver or lung. On the basis of these findings, we performed laparoscopic subtotal and D2 lymph node dissection with diverting stoma.

Pathological examination with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining showed the tumor cells spreading in a rosette-like pattern. Immunohistochemical staining revealed the tumor cells to be positive for chromogranin A and synaptophysin, with a Ki-67 labeling index of 3% . Pathological diagnosis was NET of the rectum, G2, T1b (invasion to submucosa), N0, Stage I without lymphovascular invasion. Diverting stoma closure was performed 6 months after the initial operation.

Her past medical history was complicated with a longstanding history of hepatitis C acquired from a blood transfusion in the 1970s. Unfortunately, she developed end-stage liver disease, cirrhosis, PPHTN, and coagulopathy. Her neurologic examination was grossly intact. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the head demonstrated a 13-mm, left-sided lentiform-shaped hyperdensity suggestive of subdural hematoma with midline shift of 7 mm and minimal transtentorial herniation . She had an international normalized ratio (INR) of 1.55 and a platelet level of 47,000/μL. At the time of our consultation, she was undergoing a continuous treprostinil infusion and taking oral sildenafil for PPHTN. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and medical, hepatology, and pulmonary consultations were sought. Fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and platelets were administered, and she was monitored closely. According to our critical care colleagues, the treprostinil could not be discontinued. Repeat laboratory studies yielded an INR of 1.50 and a platelet level of 90,000/μL. Over the ensuing 10 h, her level of consciousness diminished and she acquired mild right-sided hemiparesis. Most concerning was the development of an enlarged left pupil. Repeat head CT at that time revealed the SDH had increased to a maximum width of 16 mm and midline shift of 9.5 mm . +She was taken to the operating room for a left frontotemporoparietal craniotomy and evacuation of the subdural clot. A small, bleeding pial artery that had coagulated was the likely source of the hematoma. Treprostinil infusion and sildenafil were continued throughout the surgery. Intraoperatively, hemostasis was obtained in routine fashion without undue burden from excessive bleeding. The brain was nicely pulsatile at the conclusion of surgery, a patch duraplasty loosely sewn, and the bone flap replaced. Tack-up sutures were used, and a subgaleal drain was left behind. Postoperatively she had an INR of 1.45 and a platelet count of 136,000/μL. She awoke immediately and began following commands. Her anisocoria and weakness improved. She became obtunded several hours after the operation and showed signs of herniation (Glasgow Coma Scale 4). A head CT scan demonstrated a large extra-axial hyperdense fluid collection with a midline shift of 19 mm in the same location as the SDH . She was taken emergently to the operating room for reopening of the craniotomy and evacuation of the hematoma. On repeat operation hemostasis was more challenging. The scalp, temporalis muscle, and external dural surface were hemorrhaging diffusely. The hematoma was found in the epidural space, and it was evacuated. There was no significant blood in the subdural space. The coagulopathy was felt to be qualitative, and cryoprecipitate, FFP, and additional platelets were administered in an effort to obtain hemostasis. Various techniques and products including bipolar electrocautery, irrigation, thrombin-soaked Gelfoam® (Pfizer), Gelfoam Powder® (Pfizer), Avitene™ (Davol, Inc.), and Floseal Hemostatic Matrix (Baxter BioSurgery) were utilized to stop the bleeding. At the conclusion of the case the brain was again found to be pulsatile and the decision was made not to replace the bone flap. Subdural and subgaleal drains were placed and the wound was closed using a 2-0 Vicryl™ (Ethicon) on a CT-1 needle and then stapled. In the first hours postoperatively, she began to follow commands and move all of her extremities with strength. Her treprostinil and sildenafil were continued. +A postoperative CT scan demonstrated resolution of midline shift and some persistent fluid within the operative bed . Her INR measured between 1.4 and 1.7 throughout the remainder of her hospital stay, which lasted just over 1 month. Platelet counts remained between 45,000 and 225,000/μL. Multiple platelet function assays demonstrated dysfunctional platelets while on treprostinil infusion therapy. She was weaned from the ventilator and began to eat. Given her acute medical condition she was no longer a candidate for liver transplant. Over the course of several weeks in the hospital she was weaned from the treprostinil infusion and the tunneled infusion catheter removed. She was transferred to inpatient rehabilitation and eventually was discharged home. Her 2-month postoperative scan showed resolution of fluid in the operative bed . She underwent cranioplasty roughly 6 months after the initial surgery . At that time, she had stable mild right hemiparesis and was ambulatory with a walker. Currently, she is being considered for rechallenge with treprostinil therapy as a bridge to liver transplant. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2203_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2203_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..4821d43d3ba2b3da3e96c627c2003acf2bc58543 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2203_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +We present a case of a 55-year-old Caucasian man with a past medical history significant for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Melanoma, diagnosed in 2006 and 2008 respectively, who presented to our Cancer Center complaining of a one-day history of persistent fevers and chills.

The EKG revealed ST-T wave changes consistent with myocardial ischemia in the inferior and anterolateral regions. An echocardiogram was consistent with a mural thrombus visualized in the left ventricular apex. There was mild global left ventricular hypokinesis, with inferior and inferolateral wall motion abnormalities consistent with myocardial infarction. In addition, an MRI of the brain delineated evolving cerebral infarcts seen within the left posterior MCA distribution , bilateral high parietal loops , and bilateral occipital lobes . There was no evidence of significant mass effect or hemorrhagic transformation. +Furthermore, the patient began to experience a change in his mental status. A Neurology consult was obtained and the assessment attributed his waxing and waning consciousness to the continued watershed infarcts that were present. Nevertheless an EEG study was performed which delineated periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges consistent with seizure like activity. The patient was subsequently placed on intravenous levetiracetam with no improvement in his mental status.

The patient’s past medical history included a prior CABGx3 in 2008 at an outside hospital, coronary artery disease, rheumatic aortic stenosis, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. Of note, one of the patient’s bypass grafts (saphenous vein graft to the first diagonal artery) was occluded as it arose from the false lumen of the ascending aortic dissection. On the pre-bypass TEE exam, the anesthesiologist noted a bifurcated CS with two small lumens (approximately 0.4 cm and 0.5 cm in luminal diameter) . The surgeon utilized this information to select a smaller diameter retrograde catheter to avoid damage or perforation of the vessel. With TEE guidance, the surgeon successfully cannulated one of the CS lumens . However, it was noted upon dosing of retrograde cardioplegia that all tributary vessels attached to the non-cannulated lumen remained devoid of cardioplegia, suggesting the bifurcation was noncommunicating between the two lumens. As a result of this blockage, the surgeon was forced to repeatedly administer anterograde cardioplegia via a handheld catheter through the coronary ostium throughout the case. The operative field was also flooded with topical ice saline slush to ensure cardiac protection.

On initial evaluation, he was found to have an arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) of 28 mmHg and an arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) of 79 mmHg, non-responding to supplemental oxygen and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation. He was endotracheally intubated, placed on lung protective mechanical ventilation with a fraction of inspired oxygen [FiO2] of 100%, and admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Initial respiratory viral panel, blood and respiratory cultures were negative. Chest radiograph demonstrated bilateral pulmonary infiltrates. +Initial attempts to evaluate heart function with transthoracic echocardiography were unsuccessful given the patient’s body habitus. Over the following five days, efforts to decrease the fraction inspired on oxygen (FiO2) were unsuccessful (nadir of 80%), and his PaO2/FiO2 ratio ranged around 110-164 mmHg. Pulmonary compliance was still preserved at this point. Next day, the patient developed frank anuria and acute kidney failure, requiring initiation of continuous veno-venous hemodialysis (CVVHD). Transesophageal Echocardiogram (TEE) revealed a mildly dilated left ventricle with moderately reduced function (ejection fraction 30–35%), no signs of wall motion abnormalities, and a moderate-to-severe dilated right ventricle with elevated systolic pressures (50–60 mmHg) . +The patient hypoxemia worsened (PaO2/FiO2 ratio of 75 mmHg) with associated ventilator desynchrony and worsening pulmonary compliance (plateau pressures 39cmH2O) for which neuromuscular blockade was started.

Inotropic support (milrinone) and inhaled epoprostenol were started, all aimed to decrease the pulmonary artery pressures and enhance right ventricular function. In spite of these changes, the patient still remained severely hypoxemic (PaO2 64 mmHg) as well as hypercarbic and acidotic (79 mmHg, pH 7.22, respectively) with normal lactate levels (1.7 mmol/L, normal value < 2 mmol/L), as well as normotensive with no vasopressor requirement. +Given that conservative therapy for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) failed, the decision was to institute extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Since no obvious signs of low cardiac output were present, the decision was made to institute veno-venous (VV) ECMO, via a 25-French multi-orifice left femoral vein drainage cannula with its tip at the left iliac vein, and a 21-French right internal jugular vein return cannula with its tip at the right atrium, reaching flows of 5–6 l/minute .

Distal right lower limb infusion cannula was placed to the right superficial femoral artery. No significant drop in the venous pressures in the original VV-ECMO or in the CVVHD lines was noticed when the four cannulations were instituted.

A significant decrease in the LDH levels was noticed. No clinical or laboratory signs of upper body hypoxia (Harlequin Syndrome) was noticed. Adequate weaning of flow sweeps and FiO2 in both circuits was achieved. VV-ECMO was removed by hospital day #29. TEE demonstrated an improved left ventricular function (ejection fraction 45%) with persistent right ventricular dilation, for which the VA-ECMO was continued to provide further relief of the right ventricle and successfully removed 5 days later.

Shoulder lifting was limited. The patient’s body mass index was 21.4 kg/m2. His blood investigations revealed the following: calcaemia, 3.09 mmol/L (2.11–2.52 mmol/L); phosphoraemia, 0.55 mmol/L (0.85–1.51 mmol/L); and alkaline phosphatase level, 461 U/L (45–125 U/L). The other investigation results were normal. Standard anteroposterior and oblique radiographs of the left shoulder joint showed large osteolytic lesions involving the proximal humerus and humeral head without any joint involvement . Subsequent computed tomography (CT) of the left shoulder joint showed a soft tissue mass of approximately 34 × 70 mm in the medullary cavity . These imaging findings were suggestive of a bone malignancy. For further diagnosis, a colour ultrasound-guided puncture biopsy of the proximal left humerus was performed, and a brown spongy material consisting of several multinucleated giant cells without atypia was observed. This was suggestive of an aneurysmal bone cyst . +After discussion about the choice of treatment, tumour resection with postoperative pathological examination of the lesions was recommended. Therefore, the patient underwent surgery. Intraoperatively, we noticed that the cortical bone of the proximal humerus was thin and brittle. In addition, several cystic cavities filled with brown viscous substances were observed in the medullary cavity, showing honeycomb changes. We excised all the lesions, and an autologous bone was implanted in the cavity. Subsequently, proper internal fixations were installed to stabilise the bone . A postoperative pathological examination was performed again, and the findings were suggestive of a malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the left humerus . Systemic radionuclide bone scanning was performed to further exclude other bone diseases as the pre- and postoperative diagnoses differed. It showed active metabolism of the superior part of the left humerus, sternum, and left femoral neck . CT revealed multiple osteolytic lesions in the sternum and left femoral neck . +Due to the limited diagnostic level in our hospital, we sent the pathological sections and clinical data to the Department of Pathology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University; the suggested diagnosis was brown tumour. They suggested we perform further parathyroid function tests. His blood PTH level was 577 pg/ml (15–65 pg/ml). Colour Doppler ultrasonography of the parathyroid gland showed that the left dorsal thyroid was hypoechogenic, 17 × 12 mm, with unclear boundaries and an irregular shape, which was considered as a parathyroid adenoma . Ultimately, the confirmed diagnosis was a brown tumour caused by PHPT. +Regarding the treatment of PHPT, the patient was transferred to the Department of Otolaryngology for surgery. The left parathyroid adenoma was removed by axillary endoscopic resection. Intraoperatively, 20 × 10 mm solid yellow nodules with clear boundaries were observed at the left dorsal lobe of the thyroid gland . The parathyroid adenoma was completely removed after separation. A postoperative pathologic examination was conducted, which proved to be a parathyroid adenoma . The PTH levels dropped to 29 pg/ml (15–65 pg/ml) 4 days after surgery. +One year after the surgery , the left humerus lesions had healed completely, and the left shoulder joint had a good range of movement. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2288_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2288_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ec4d6d945cf6ff60c77de07c6022c66d2c80bd19 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2288_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +A 74-year-old woman underwent a revision hip surgery for the treatment of a recurrent dislocation of a cemented total hip arthroplasty (eight dislocations), by malposition of the acetabular component . +The all-polyethylene acetabular liner was perforated with a 4.5 mm drill, and two cork-screws were firmly screwed in the rim as far as possible, in order to extrude the liner from the cement mantle, and to create also fissures into the cement .

She was clubbed but there were no signs of anaemia or stigmata of chronic liver disease. Scattered inspiratory crepitations were present throughout both lung fields, especially over the upper lobes, but these findings were unchanged from previous recordings. On abdominal examination, there was no tenderness or palpable masses. Rectal examination was normal. Initial investigations revealed a normal haemoglobin, renal function and serum amylase. Liver enzymes were normal except for a slightly raised serum alkaline phosphatase at 155 IU/L (normal range 45 to 115 IU/L). Chest radiograph showed over-inflated lungs with fibrotic scarring and ring shadows, particularly in the upper lobes, consistent with her advanced lung disease. Full lung function testing showed an FEV1 of 0.78 L (29% predicted), forced vital capacity (FVC) of 1.29 L (41% predicted), and evidence of gas trapping with a residual volume of 210% predicted as well as a reduced carbon monoxide transfer factor (TLCO) of 12.86 mL/min/mmHg (52% predicted) that normalised when corrected for alveolar volume. +At colonoscopy, a large pedunculated polyp was seen in the distal sigmoid colon and the top of this was removed.

Tasmanians do not have access to this sort of dedicated care team and it was thought that the patient's chances of survival postoperatively would be increased if 24-hour access to a multidisciplinary CF team was available. +As part of the pre-operative staging, a positron emission tomography (PET) scan was undertaken and this demonstrated increased uptake in enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes which were thought reactive and consistent with her chronic pulmonary sepsis. There was no uptake in the abdomen to suggest loco-regional metastatic disease. A laparoscopic anterior resection was performed under general anaesthetic. The procedure was tolerated remarkably well. Operative time was 4 hours during which she maintained oxygen saturations between 97% and 100% on a FiO2 of 38%. She was extubated successfully and had an uncomplicated postoperative course.

Cardiac causes had been ruled out (as mentioned earlier) and there was no cause for septic shock immediate postoperatively. It was hence concluded that the hypotension was a consequence of severe brain edema and loss of autonomic control, further supported by the lability of the BP and extreme sensitivity to inotropic agents. +After excluding the above, the sequence of events suggests postcranioplasty malignant edema due to a change in pressure dynamics, as the most likely cause of the deterioration. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2338_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2338_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..6d822c0de58b85136321583752fcaae70707d4b0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2338_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +A 60-year-old Caucasian woman who had a silent clinical history with the exception of obesity and mild diabetes had routine blood count and chemistry tests at the recommendation of her family doctor.

Samples (50 μL) were stained with fluorochrome-conjugated monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) specific for the following antigens: CD3, CD4, CD8, CD5, CD16, CD56, CD19, CD20, CD22, CD23, FMC7, CD103, CD11c, CD25, CD10, CD38, CD45 (purchased from Becton Dickinson), and K and λ immunoglobulin light chains (purchased from Dako). A six-color panel was used for each tube, associating MoAbs conjugated with FITC, PE, PerCP-Cy5.5, PE-Cy.7, APC and APC-Cy.7. At least 200,000 events were acquired and data were processed using FacsDiva software (Becton Dickinson). Lymphocytes were gated using CD45 expression and right angle scatter. A second gate included CD19+ events and was used to analyze the expression of the other markers. +Immunophenotyping showed an excess of B-lymphocytes (1.5 × 109/L) with bright expression of CD20 and CD22, restriction for the K light chain of surface immunoglobulins, and absence of CD5 and CD10 . At light microscopy, lymphocytes were not villous (not shown). +A whole body computed tomography showed splenomegaly (20 cm longitudinal axis), but no lymphoadenomegaly or signs of other organ involvement were found. +The patient was referred to the Division of Hematology for further observation and underwent bone marrow evaluation (morphology by myeloaspirate specimens, trephine biopsy, flow cytometry, molecular biology assays and karyotype). +Bone marrow trephines were fixed in Myelodec® reagent A (Bio-Optica) for two hours, decalcified in EDTA for two days, embedded in paraffin, and cut into 3 to 5 μm sections. Morphological evaluations were performed on hematoxylin-eosin, Giemsa and Gordon-Sweet for reticulin-stained sections. Immunohistochemical stainings were performed using a peroxidase-based system including antibodies specific for: CD20, CD3, CD5, CD23, DBA44, bcl2, bcl6, and cyclin-D1 (DSC-6). The spleen was sectioned and fixed in buffered formalin. +The bone marrow biopsy specimens showed a global cellularity of 50% with nodular-interstitial infiltration by CD20+ and bcl2+ lymphocytes, which accounted for 15% of cellularity and was negative for CD5, CD23, bcl-6, cyclin-D1 and DBA44 . +Flow cytometry of bone marrow blood showed 16% lymphocytes which were positive for CD19, CD20, CD22, CD103 and surface K light chain, and negative for CD5, CD23, CD10, CD11c, CD25, and surface λ light chain . +Mononuclear cells were separated by Ficoll/Hypaque gradient from bone marrow and peripheral blood samples, and suitable aliquots were utilized for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests after spectrophotometric quantitative evaluation. Fluorescent PCR reactions for IgH clonality evaluation were carried out with CDR3-specific VH consensus primer and analyzed by ABI PRISM 3100 (Applied Biosystems) ), whereas the results of FRI VH region rearrangement amplifications were run on a 3.5% agarose gel. Qualitative PCR detecting Bcl-1/JH rearrangements were performed according to the protocols established by the European network (BIOMED-2 Concerted Action) . +The molecular findings showed a single clonal rearrangement of the IgH gene and the absence of the bcl-1/JH translocation. +Karyotyping was carried out by conventional banding methods and no pathologic metaphases were detected by conventional karyotype. +Diagnosis of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, compatible with the MZL subtype, was therefore made. +The patient underwent splenectomy to remove a significant burden of disease and to confirm the initial diagnosis. Macroscopic examination showed that the organ was 23 × 15 × 8 cm, with a weight of 1350 grams. The spleen was sectioned and fixed in buffered formalin. Several samples were routinely processed to paraffin wax and sections of 3 to 5 μm were stained with hematoxylin-eosin for morphological evaluation. A panel of antibodies (CD20, CD3, CD5, CD10, CD23, bcl2, bcl6, cyclin-D1, CD10 and Ki-67) was applied to some samples using the ultraView Universal DAB Detection Kit and blue reagent with a BenchMark XT Automated Slide Stainer (Ventana). +The spleen was found to be infiltrated by a MCL; lymphocytes were positive for CD20, CD5, bcl2, negative for CD23 and CD10, had a low mitotic index (Ki-67: 5 to 10%), and showed a strong positivity for cyclin-D1 and a characteristic pattern of infiltration . The neoplastic lymphocytes were seen as small to medium-sized cells with irregular nuclear contours, giving rise to a mantle-fashion pattern of infiltration. DNA extracted from paraffin-embedded spleen specimens (EZ1 Advanced, Qiagen) was subjected to PCR assays, which showed a clonal IgH rearrangement, the same as found in the bone marrow . +At the end of our evaluation, the patient was diagnosed as suffering from the simultaneous presence of splenic MCL and bone marrow MZL with peripheral blood expression. Therapy with the cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin (Adriamycin), Oncovin (vincristine) and prednisone - rituximab (CHOP-R) protocol was started and, after six courses and restaging by computed tomography and bone marrow and peripheral blood investigation, showed that complete remission was achieved. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2352_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2352_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3ef6e1d20c091fbf8241c14af6703baf9a98bc58 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2352_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 70-year-old female came to the emergency department with the chief complaints of sore throat for 7 days.

Her pericardium was then opened. An unruptured aneurysm of the noncoronary sinus of Valsalva was identified . On intraoperative examination, a thin-walled unruptured aneurysm of the noncoronary sinus of Valsalva expanding above the roof of her left atrium, compressing and partially gaining adhesions with her right atrium was identified. Her aorta was clamped and her heart was arrested with anterograde cardioplegic infusion. An anterior oblique aortotomy was performed. The orifice of the unruptured aneurysm of the noncoronary sinus of Valsalva was identified . The aneurysm was opened and carefully inspected for any possible communication. A Dacron patch was prepared to remodel the noncoronary sinus, which then was sutured with a continuous Prolene 4/0 suture . Then the aneurysmatic sac was closed from outside above the orifice of the aneurysm. A pathological examination of the resected unruptured aneurysm of the noncoronary sinus of Valsalva revealed conspicuous mucoid deposits, loss of elastic fibers and eosinophilic infiltration. Her postoperative course was uneventful. At 1 month after surgery, a contrast-enhanced angio-CT demonstrated a totally thrombosed cavity of the previous aneurysm which had non-communication with her aorta or any other cardiac chamber . At 1 year after surgery, she was doing well and an echocardiographic examination revealed mild aortic insufficiency. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2421_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2421_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d160636728ba903066be774f49d73e11329caca5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2421_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 65 yr old female presented to the Ear Nose and Throat [ENT] clinic of our institution with a one-month history of a lump in the right neck.

He initially sought medical attention outside King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) where he was found to have a huge mediastinal mass on a chest x-ray from which a biopsy revealed a thymoma . At KHCC, a chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed a lobulated anterior mediastinal soft tissue mass measuring 11.3 × 7.7 cm at the level of the aortic arch. It appeared to be inseparable from the anterior wall of the superior vena cava (SVC), compressing it mildly but keeping it patent. In addition, it had a wide area of contact with the ascending aorta and upper pericardium. Multiple small nodular soft tissue masses were seen in the anterior epicardial space, mostly representing small lymph nodes. Otherwise no other mediastinal lymphadenopathy was reported . +A multidisciplinary team explained to the patient and his family the treatment options, which included neoadjuvant chemotherapy and re-assessment of tumor size for potential resectability afterwards. The patient received two cycles of Cisplatin/Doxorubicin/Cyclophosphamide (CAP). Follow up imaging showed a slight regression in size of the previously noted anterior mediastinal mass which now measured 10.2 × 7.2 cm. The patient received a third cycle of neoadjuvant chemotherapy however, the tumor size remained unchanged. +The patient was then scheduled for a total thymectomy through a mid-sternotomy. Intraoperatively, there was a huge hard thymic mass invading the inner surface of the anterior pericardium and the right phrenic nerve, being very close to the left phrenic nerve. It was also attached to the superior vena cava, innominate vein (InV), ascending aorta (AsA) and part of the right middle and right upper lung lobes. +Total thymectomy with anterior pericardial resection was done; the tumor was dissected from the SVC, the InV and the AsA without complications, the right phrenic nerve was resected en bloc with the tumor and part of the pericardium while the left phrenic nerve was dissected from the mass and preserved. The operation was smooth and uneventful. Postoperatively the chest tube collected 2 l of blood and the patient became hypotensive despite receiving two units of packed red blood cells (PRBCs) and intravenous normal saline. The decision was then made to take the patient back to the operation room and an emergency surgical site exploration via reopening of the midline sternotomy was done within 3 h of the first procedure. +The bleeding source was identified from the left internal mammary vessel and was controlled by clipping, cautery and SURGICEL (Ethicon US). During the intraoperative thirty-minute monitoring for blood pressure improvement, the patient developed ventricular tachycardia, and the defibrillator could not be readily started for technical reasons, so the heart became severely distended and developed asystole. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was initiated manually by cardiac massage with intra-cardiac adrenaline injection. Right ventricular rupture occurred with a 3-cm hole that was followed immediately by an attempt of Proline stich repair that failed, so manual massage continued with a hand closure of the defect until the sinus rhythm reverted. Eventually, repair of the defect was successfully achieved with pericardial patch. Meanwhile, the blood loss was compensated by continuous blood infusion. Within 5 h, the patient received a total of thirteen units of PRBCs, eleven units of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and one unit of single donor platelet. Blood pressure and vital signs improved afterward and the heart returned to a synchronized rhythm. +The patient was transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU) on mechanical ventilation for observation.

Pathological findings of the endoscopic biopsy of the ampulla revealed a well-differentiated NET. Immunohistochemically, the tumor stained positive for CD56, chromogranin A, and synaptophysin. An upper gastrointestinal series showed an ampullary mass without any obvious lesions of the jejunum . An enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a 10-mm hypervascular tumor at the ampulla of Vater and a 41-mm multilocular cyst adjacent to the wall of the jejunum near the ligament of Treitz . The wall of the multilocular cyst showed the same enhancement patterns with the tumor. The patient underwent magnetic resonance imaging that was negative for visceral metastasis. About the cyst, the preoperative definitive diagnosis was not provided. +The patient was referred to our hospital for treatment of the NET. We performed a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with regional lymph node dissection. The operative time was 497 min, and the volume of blood loss during the surgery was 1220 ml. The resected specimen was macroscopically a 9-mm white solid tumor . Tumor cells confined to duodenal mucosal layer. There was a 52-mm cyst in the superior mesentery adjacent to the wall of the jejunum . Microscopically, the tumor consisted of small-sized round cell proliferations with a solid nest pattern . The cyst preserved the structure of the lymph node and was the superior mesenteric lymph node metastasis of the tumor . We performed D2 lymph node dissection, and there was no metastatic lymph node except for the superior mesenteric lymph node. Immunohistochemically, the resected specimen revealed that the tumor and the lymph node metastasis were positive for chromogranin A and CD56 and negative for synaptophysin. The Ki-67-labeling index of the tumor cells determined with MIB-1 was 2.0 %. The final diagnosis was sporadic non-functional NET G1 of the ampulla of Vater (pT1N1M0 stage IIIB). The patient was discharged 36 days after the operation. He has had no recurrence for 4 years after surgery. No further treatment was administered. +NETs of the ampulla of Vater are rare and difficult to diagnose [, ]. Jaundice (60 %) and abdominal pain (40 %) are the most frequent symptoms. Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is a rare presentation (<3 %) [, ]. In our case, the patient presented with abdominal pain and melena. On admission, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a bulging papilla with active bleeding. When we performed gastric endoscopy again 7 days later, we found a 10-mm mass of the ampulla of Vater with a superficial ulcer. +Diagnosis of NETs is established by histological and immunohistochemical analysis of endoscopic biopsy specimens . NETs of the ampulla of Vater usually appear as submucosal masses that are small and spherical with a smooth surface and an intact duodenal mucosa. Consequently, superficial biopsies are negative and deeper biopsies are required for a diagnosis [, ]. In our present case, we could get the biopsy specimen from the mass because it had an ulcerated surface. Thus, the correct diagnosis of a NET was established preoperatively. However, we could not diagnose the cyst adjacent to the wall of the jejunum as a lymph node metastasis at the time of resection. +Previous reports have suggested that the biological behavior of ampullary NETs is distinct from that of duodenal NETs and they are more aggressive . Randle and colleagues reported that ampullary NETs were larger, higher grade, and higher stage and had a higher rate of lymph node metastasis than duodenal NETs . The incidence of lymph node metastases in patients with resected ampullary NETs and duodenal NETs was 72.9 and 48.4 %, respectively. +In the case of ampullary NETs, even in tumors smaller than 2 cm, a high percentage have lymph node metastases [, –]. Nikou et al. reported that lymph node metastases were found in two cases of ampullary NET with tumor sizes of 1.0 and 1.2 cm, respectively . In the present case, the histologic examination revealed metastasis to distant lymph nodes despite the tumor only being 9 mm in diameter and within duodenal mucosal layer. These findings suggest that there is no correlation between tumor size and metastatic potential in ampullary NETs. We consider that an anatomical reason is one of the reasons why NETs at the ampulla of Vater have high incidence of metastasis. Ampullary carcinoma with perisphincteric or duodenal submucosal invasion showed more frequent lymph node metastasis and a greater tumor recurrence rate than tumor limited within the sphincter of Oddi muscle . Moreover, the perisphincteric and duodenal submucosal space is relatively small and closer to the next layering of duodenal proper muscle and the pancreas. Thus, the malignant potential of perisphincteric and/or duodenal submucosal invasion may be greater than that of other gastrointestinal tract tumors. Moreover, previous studies have reported that lymph node metastasis is difficult to detect on preoperative imaging [, ]. Although some authors report the existence of lymph node metastasis of NETs is not correlated with patient prognosis, this could be due to metastasis to the liver or some other organ, which is an important prognostic factor for NETs. Therefore, radical resection with lymph node dissection is recommended as a treatment of ampullary NETs regardless of tumor size [, , , , ]. +We performed a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with regional lymph node resection and also resected a 52-mm lymphatic metastasis adjacent to the wall of the jejunum. Despite the lymph node involvement, the Ki-67-labeling index was low (2 %) and the patient has had no evidence of recurrence for 4 years after surgery. +Randle et al. indicated that tumor size was correlated with poor prognosis, but the presence of positive lymph nodes was not a predictive outcome in resected ampullary NETs . Untch et al. reported that only tumor size and tumor grade were associated with recurrence . Thus, we can perform radical resection and completely remove the tumor with good clinical outcomes. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2448_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2448_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..aa770055f1b1c7bc860cd797a6af63a521d6aa09 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2448_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 12-year-old black boy with a history of asthma presented with complaints of bilateral decreased visual acuity and central scotoma shortly after playing with a battery-powered bright blue laser pointer (473 nm, according to the label on the device).

The laboratory received a sample of serum and a request for determination of potassium alone. The sample was not hemolyzed (hemolysis index <6 mg/dL) and showed mild hyperkalemia of 5.5 mmol/L. Once pre-analytical and drug-related causes were excluded, differential diagnosis was performed, including:Hyperkalemia secondary to renal insufficiency. Hyperkalemia secondary to intravascular hemolysis. Hyperkalemia secondary to acidosis. Hyperkalemia secondary to tissue breakdown (rhabdomyolysis). Pseudohyperkalemia secondary to oncohematologic disease (essential thrombocytosis, acute or chronic leukemia). +For differential diagnosis in the laboratory, blood was drawn at the hospital and sent to the laboratory with the following tests request: Hemogram including reticulocytes and blood smear. General biochemistry including ions, hemolysis index, hepatic profile (GOT, GPT, GGT, LDH, and ALP), renal profile (creatinine, urea, and estimated glomerular filtration rate CKD-EPI), creatine kinase, haptoglobin, phosphocalcic, and iron metabolism (iron, transferrin saturation index, transferrin, and ferritin). Venous gasometry: Blood gas test is immediately performed with a pH of 7.39 (range of reference 7.35–7.45). 24-urine biochemistry. +An EDTA sample was sent to obtain a hemogram and a lithium heparin sample for biochemistry. Smear was normal, without morphological alterations. All parameters in the hemogram were within normal range, with 1.55% reticulocytes (range of reference: 0.9–2.6%). Oncohematologic diseases were excluded by differential diagnosis. +The only finding on general biochemistry was cholesterol 248 mg/dL (range of reference: <200 mg/dL), with potassium 3.98 mmol/L (range of reference in plasma: 3.4–4.5 mmol/L), creatinine 0.86 mg/dL (range of reference: 0.51–0.95 mg/dL), and haptoglobin 39 mg/dL (range of reference: 30–200 mg/dL), and a hemolysis index <6 mg/dL. PCR, CK, hepatic profile and other parameters were within normal range. Laboratory analysis excluded hyperkalemia, due to the absence of renal insufficiency or data of cellular lysis or signs of intravascular hemolysis. Urine biochemistry was normal, with all parameters within normal range. +Once all potential causes were excluded by differential diagnosis, and in the absence of elevated potassium levels, a possible case of familial pseudohyperkalemia was considered. Three lithium heparin tubes were collected at the hospital for incubation at different time points and temperatures: Two aliquots for incubation at 4 °C for 2 and 4 h, respectively. This simulated transport conditions from the primary care center to the laboratory, since samples are transported at 4 °C for a mean of 3 h. Two aliquots for incubation at 25 °C for 2 and 4 h, respectively. This simulates transport conditions from the room where blood is drawn to the laboratory, since samples are transported at room temperature for a mean of 3 h. Two aliquots for incubation at 37 °C for 2 and 4 h, respectively. This simulates in vivo conditions. +Uncentrifuged samples were received for analysis. Centrifugation was performed after the incubation period was completed (results shown in ).

Plain radiographs of the lumbar spine showed degenerative changes . MRI showed a mass located posteriorly and laterally to the left aspect of the dural sac at the L3 level, and contrast-enhanced MRI showed a lesion with a heterogeneous ring-like enhancement at the L3 level . We performed discography and disco-computed tomography (CT) to diagnose the dorsal epidural pathologies, expecting that the L3/4 discography would support a definitive diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation. Discography of the intervertebral disc at L3/4 level was performed using a standard posterolateral approach with a Hijikata discographic threehold needle (Tanaka Medical Instruments, Tokyo, Japan). For discography, the needle was inserted into the center of the disc under fluoroscopic control. Omnipaque 240 (3.0 mL; Daiichi Sankyo Company, Tokyo, Japan) was injected into the disc until contrast medium leaked out of the disc into the outside. After the injections were complete, the CT scan was performed to further analyze the L3/4 injected disc. However, the L3/4 discography and disco-CT clearly showed leakage of the contrast medium into the posterior dural space . Based on these findings, we diagnosed neurological deficit due to PEMLDF. We performed an L2/3/4 laminectomy and separated a 30-mm-wide mass, embedded in fibrous epidural tissue, from the posterolateral aspect of the dural sac . No adhesion was seen. The huge disc fragment had been extruded into the epidural space and wrapped around from the outside of the nerve root. After removing the mass piece by piece , we detected a rupture in the left side of the L3-4 disc at the posterior longitudinal ligament. The compression on dura and nerve roots was totally removed.

The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hospital District of Helsinki and Uusimaa. Conventional rehabilitation, including weekly physical therapy for 1–2 h, occupational therapy for 1 h, and pool therapy for 1–2 h, was maintained during the PAS and was the same as before the intervention. His muscle strength had remained stable prior to PAS (Supplementary Table ). Mean ± SD spontaneous changes of manual muscle test (MMT) score in the 17 months preceding PAS were 0.67 ± 0.52 (right hand) and 0.17 ± 1.17 (left hand). Pinch strength values were 0.57 ± 0.32 kg (right hand) and 0.27 ± 0.63 kg (left hand) in the 12 months preceding PAS (Supplementary Table ). Medication is presented in Supplementary Table . +Navigated TMS (nTMS) of the motor cortex was delivered by a NBS 4.3 stimulator (Nexstim Ltd., Helsinki, Finland) with a figure-of-eight coil (outer diameter 70 mm, biphasic pulse). Structural T1-weighted MRI for nTMS was obtained with a 3T Siemens Verio scanner (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany). The nTMS system enables accurate, reproducible stimulation of selected cortical sites, the “hotspots” , where MEPs are most readily elicited from the selected muscles . The hotspots were defined for abductor pollicis brevis (APB), abductor digiti minimi (ADM), and brachioradialis (BR) muscles in both hands as in our previous studies . +PNS was delivered using a Dantec Keypoint electroneuromyography device (Natus Medical Inc., Pleasanton, CA, USA) and surface electrodes . The nerves were stimulated as in our previous studies . Initially, PNS stimuli were 50-Hz trains (1-ms square pulses, 6 pulses per train, train duration 100 ms). From week 30 onwards, 100-Hz trains (train duration 50 ms) were used as they were experimentally proven to be more efficient for MEP potentiation in healthy subjects . +For PAS , nTMS (single-pulse, 0.2 Hz, 100% MSO) of the selected hotspots was synchronized with the first pulse of the PNS train given to the corresponding contralateral nerve . The interstimulus interval for each pair was calculated using individual parameters . The subject was seated comfortably during PAS. One session consisted of PAS of 3–6 hotspot-nerve pairs given in pseudo-random order of 1.5–3 h duration in total (20 min per nerve plus time for preparations, Fig. ). +The hand motor training (MT) combined with the PAS (PAS-MT) was aimed at increasing muscle strength in those muscles where MMT scores remained 2 or less after 24 weeks of the intervention. Three weak muscles in the right hand were trained with motor tasks (thumb palmar abduction for APB; spreading fingers for dorsal interossei; and thumb radial abduction for abductor pollicis longus) simultaneously with the corresponding PAS. AR manually assisted the subject in finger movements. +The intervention of 56 weeks included 47 weeks of PAS and 1–2-week breaks without stimulations . PAS to a hotspot-nerve pair was stopped when strength and range of motion of all muscles innervated by this nerve reached an MMT score of 4–5. All left-hand muscles reached this level at week 28; only the right hand was stimulated thereafter. At subject’s request, PAS of the left median nerve and the associated motor task were reinitiated at week 40 to enable more fluent grasp movements. The follow-up period started when the MMT scores of all evaluated muscles of both hands reached level 4 or 5 and was continued for 32 weeks. All tests were performed immediately prior to the study, during the intervention, and follow up. +Outcome measures in both hands included MMT (total scores for all evaluated muscles and partial scores of the muscles innervated by each of the stimulated nerves) and the modified Ashworth scale (MAS, spasticity in wrist and elbow) evaluated by a physiotherapist specialized in SCI and blinded to the intervention changes and results of previous evaluations. In addition, we collected sensory scores of the American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale (AIS); grip strength assessed with the adjustable-handle Jamar dynamometer (Asimov Engineering Co., MA, USA); tip, key, and palmar pinch assessed with the pinch gauge (B&L Engineering, CA, USA); the spinal cord independence measure (SCIM); the box and block (BB) test; the nine hole peg test (NHPT); and MEPs and F-responses recorded from APB, ADM, and BR . For the MMT, only muscles that scored <5 in the first assessment were selected for further evaluation (Supplementary Table 2 parts 1, 2). The subject reported subjective functional changes. +The total and partial MMT scores were improved in both hands . In total, the left hand regained 19 points and the right hand 48 points during the intervention. The scores reached the maximum level in the left hand after 47 weeks and remained stable in follow up. MMT scores of level 4 or 5 in the right-hand muscles were obtained in follow up. MMT scores were improved further during the PAS-MT, particularly in the right hand (Supplementary Table 2 part 1). AIS sensory scores did not differ (Supplementary Table ). Spasticity assessed with MAS remained 0 at all times. Increased grip and pinch strengths were observed in both hands already after 8–20 weeks of PAS. Remarkably, all tested pinch strength types were increased (Supplementary Table ). In the right hand, grip and pinch strength increased during the first 8–20 PAS weeks and stabilized thereafter. In the left hand, the increase in pinch strength stabilized after 25 weeks of PAS. Grip strength increased in the right hand by 4.5 kg and in the left hand by 3.3 kg . Pinch strength increased in the right hand by 3.0 kg and in the left hand by 2.6 kg, (Supplementary Table ). PAS-MT further increased pinch strength. Pinch strength decreased towards the level observed before PAS-MT administration in follow up. Results of the BB test increased from 45/68 (right hand/left hand) blocks to 52/75 blocks. By the end of the intervention, the NHPT time decreased by 31 s in the left and by 32 s in the right hand (Supplementary Table ) and remained stable during follow up in the left hand (see Supplementary Video ). The subject’s self-care and indoor and outdoor mobility increased during the PAS and improved further during follow up. His SCIM self-care score increased from 3 to 13 and SCIM indoor mobility from 6 to 10 . Respiration and sphincter management did not change. Before PAS, the subject needed total or partial assistance in eating, bathing, dressing, and grooming. During follow up, he could perform these tasks independently and without adaptive devices. In total, the subject’s SCIM score increased from 40 to 56 (Supplementary Table ). He enhanced his coherent motor control after 8 weeks of PAS (see Supplementary Videos and ), and reported numerous improvements in both hands during follow up . He regained the ability to perform various complex fine motor tasks without external help. Before intervention, the subject had pain and uncomfortable tingling that decreased or completely disappeared during the intervention and follow-up (Supplementary Table ). +The PAS potentiated MEPs in five out of six targeted muscles . The overall effect differed slightly between the right and left hands. In all six muscles, the MEP amplitudes in both hands increased on average by 324% after 16 weeks of follow up when compared with the corresponding values obtained prior to PAS. Before treatment it was not possible to elicit MEPs from the right ADM even with muscle preactivation. MEPs were detected after 42 weeks of stimulation and remained stable during follow up. In the left ADM, small MEPs were elicited before PAS. Their amplitudes increased during PAS and follow up. Although the changes were variable, the total amplitude increase was systematic when the first and last MEP recordings were compared . The minimum F-response latencies (F min) in the right hand decreased after PAS from 32 to 25 ms (23%) for the ulnar nerve and from 31 to 28 ms (9%) for the median nerve. No response was found with the left median nerve before intervention but was obtained during follow up (F min = 33 ms). F-min latency in the left ulnar nerve (31 ms) did not change. F-responses to the radial nerve stimulation in both hands were inconsistent. No amplitude changes were observed. +Around week 12, during PAS of the right radial nerve the subject reported a sensation in both legs resembling electrical stimulation, leg spasticity, and spasticity-related leg pain. A simultaneous urinary tract infection unrelated to stimulation was detected and treated. Psychological stress unrelated to stimulation occurred simultaneously. The PAS was interrupted for 2 weeks and the subject increased pain medication. After that he reported a decrease in spasticity and pain. The subject’s position in the chair was adjusted to increase comfort, and PNS intensity was slightly decreased . During weeks 16–19 these symptoms gradually disappeared. No other adverse effects were reported. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2492_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2492_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..9c156dd38c99d13f4cc6ee195dd8ccf92eb3c8f5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2492_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 45-year-old patient (G3P0030) desired pregnancy and sought fertility treatment in an academic reproductive endocrinology and infertility center.

Our patient had hypertension, dyslipidemia and osteoporosis but no history of diabetes, connective tissue diseases or chronic viral hepatitis. Because of recurrent thrombosis at the vascular access point for hemodialysis, she had received six months of warfarin therapy that ended five months prior to developing the calf lesion. Our patient had a long history of secondary hyperparathyroidism and had been treated with intravenous calcitriol for many years. Because of frequent episodes of hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, intravenous calcitriol had to be discontinued so often as to result in inadequate control of her secondary hyperparathyroidism. Despite replacing the calcium-containing phosphate binders with sevelamer and shifting calcitriol to paricalcitol, her metabolic problems with calcium and phosphorous showed little improvement. In the previous four years, her serum levels of intact parathyroid hormone typically ranged from 350 to 800pg/mL, her calcium levels were around 9.5 to 10.6mg/dL and her phosphate serum levels were approximately 5.0 to 7.4mg/dL. +In the ensuing weeks, her lesions became ulcerative and eschars covered the wound surfaces . Plain radiographs indicated marked calcification in the vessels of her lower extremities . A network of calcified vessels as small as 0.5mm in diameter was located in the retromalleolar region of her left leg, near the skin lesions . Calciphylaxis was suspected and intravenous STS was administered three times a week after each session of hemodialysis. The maintenance dose was 12g, equivalent to 15.4g per 1.73m2 of body surface area. Her predialysis serum calcium levels demonstrated a notable change from 10.4mg/dL to as high as 11.8mg/dL after initiating STS therapy. The dialysate calcium concentration was subsequently decreased from 2.5 to 2.0mEq/L stepwise and dialysis frequency was increased from three to four times per week. Treatment with paricalcitol (4μg, three times per week) was also stopped. As a result, her predialysis calcium levels decreased to 10.8mg/dL during the remaining STS treatment course . Nevertheless, necrotic changes continued as the ulcers expanded. STS was discontinued after five weeks of treatment. The laboratory data showed that her predialysis calcium levels declined to less than 10mg/dL in one week. Despite a series of efforts including hyperbaric oxygen therapy, diligent wound care and pain control, the lesions worsened and eventually required surgical debridement . +Three months after the onset of skin lesions, our patient was hospitalized and scrupulous debridement was performed to excide the gangrenous tissue. The pathology of the gangrenous tissue revealed necrotic debris and inflammatory cellular exudates. The wound culture exhibited Acinetobacter baumannii growth, so intravenous amoxicillin-clavulanate was administered based on a sensitivity test. Because of the active infection of the skin lesions and fear of deepening or expanding the wound, no tissue biopsy was performed. Computed tomography angiography revealed diffuse vascular wall calcifications and atherosclerotic changes of the low abdominal aorta and bilateral iliac arteries, and marked calcification of the large and small arteries of both lower extremities . Conventional angiography showed a 70% stenosis in her left posterior tibial artery and a percutaneous transluminal angioplasty was performed for dilation. Our patient was discharged after one month of hospitalization, showing improvement of the lesion after aggressive wound care. Cinacalcet was concomitantly administered to treat the hyperparathyroidism and hypercalcemia. Her predialysis calcium level declined from 9.8 to 8.2mg/dL in two weeks. We adjusted the cinacalcet dosage between 25 and 50mg/day and the dialysate calcium concentration between 2.5 and 3.0mEq/L to avoid symptomatic hypocalcemia. The lesions steadily improved and were completely healed two months after discharge . Repeated plain radiographs in the following two years revealed gradual VC regression in both lower extremities . The network of small vessel calcifications in the retromalleolar region almost completely resolved. During a two-year follow-up period, during which cinacalcet treatment continued, her serum calcium levels typically remained at approximately 8.4 to 9.4mg/dL, her phosphate at 4.1 to 6.4mg/dL, and her intact parathyroid hormone at 250 to 480pg/mL.

Then anesthesia induction was performed with 8% sevoflurane carried by 6 L/min oxygen flow. After the patient became unconscious, anesthesia was maintained with 3–5% sevoflurane and 1 L/min oxygen flow for more than 5 min. Before rigid tracheobronchoscopy introduced into the trachea, the child received propofol (20 mg) and fentanyl (10 μg) intravenously to deepen the anesthesia. After 1–2 min, when her lower jaw was flabby, the surgeon introduced a LTA applicator into the trachea under the guidance of rigid tracheobronchoscopy, and then sprayed topical 1% lidocaine on the surfaces of the vocal cords and trachea. After the surgeon applied the topical anesthetic to the trachea, the girl suddenly suffered from bucking, which made it difficult to withdraw the LTA applicator. The surgeon quickly examined the opening of the main trachea using rigid tracheobronchoscopy, and found the TFB had migrated to the subglottic region against the LTA applicator. In this situation, manual ventilation became impossible and within half a minute, the patient’s SpO2 decreased to 91% and her heart rate dropped from 150 to 100 bpm. We administered an intravenous injection of atropine (0.3 mg) and succinylcholine (10 mg). Meanwhile, the surgeon tried to free the TFB by pushing it back into the trachea, after which the LTA kit was easily withdrawn. We then mask-ventilated the lungs successfully. The patient’s SpO2 quickly increased to 97% and her heart rate rose to 140 bpm. After deepening the anesthesia with propofol (20 mg) intravenously, the surgeon successfully grabbed and removed the TFB under jet ventilation . Afterwards, the girl’s condition improved quickly and she recovered uneventfully. She was discharged from the hospital 2 days later without complications. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_284_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_284_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3207a8c591362fdb935cbe049208a934850ca97e --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_284_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +A 60-year-old Japanese man with a 9-year history of T2DM presented at the emergency department of Kariya Toyota General Hospital with anuria and severe general fatigue. On admission, the patient was transported by ambulance due to his difficulty in moving. On evaluation, the patient reported fatigue, malaise, weight loss, and intermittent nausea and vomiting. He reported no headaches, joint, or muscle pain. He denied having a fever or contact with another sick individual. +Apart from T2DM, his past medical history included hypertension and lumbar disc herniation. He had no history of psychiatric disease and no known drug allergies. He had no family history of diabetes mellitus, lived alone, and his educational status was not obtained. The patient had smoked 1 pack of cigarettes per day for 45 years and consumed approximately 540 mL of Japanese sake daily. His medications included Met (500 mg three times daily), sitagliptin (50 mg once daily), pioglitazone (15 mg once daily), dapagliflozin (5 mg once daily), amlodipine (5 mg once daily), azilsartan/amlodipine (20 mg/5 mg once daily), rosuvastatin (2.5 mg once daily), and a hydrogel patch containing loxoprofen sodium. +Renal function was normal before admission and the Met dosage used to treat T2DM was suitable for this patient. No abnormality was found in the patient’s blood tests (data not shown) when he had visited his doctor 13 days before admission. Notably, 12 days before admission, his work had changed from office to physical work (approximately 30,000–40,000 steps per day). He had noted a gradual decrease in urinary output for several days before admission, but had no other symptoms. Two days before admission, he developed anuria, dizziness, and nausea. +The initial laboratory findings are shown in Table . The time-course changes in serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels after admission are shown in Fig. . The lactate concentration of the patient was 4.27 mmol/L and the arterial pH was 7.31. Considering the previously established definition for lactic acidosis (lactate > 5 mmol/L and pH < 7.35) , the patient did not meet these criteria. However, a recently updated definition of lactic acidosis revealed that this patient taking Met fulfilled the criteria for the diagnosis of lactic acidosis because the lactate concentration was > 4 mmol/L . +The physical examination at admission indicated the following: height of 172.3 cm, weight of 69.3 kg, blood pressure of 159/94 mmHg, regular pulse of 96 beats per minute, body temperature of 36.3 °C, and oxygen saturation of 99% breathing ambient air. There was no sign of hypoglycemia since blood glucose was 129 mg/dL . This case is considered to be different from either diabetic ketoacidosis or euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis. Despite the presence of normal glucose levels, he was not in the insulin-dependent state characteristic of euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis and did not present with the physical symptoms of ketosis (tachypnea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and impaired consciousness). The patient was alert and appeared well. Cardiac auscultation revealed a regular rhythm without murmurs or gallops and an audible S1 and S2. Respiratory sounds were clear to auscultation with no crackles, wheezes, or bronchial breath sounds. The abdomen was non-distended, soft, and non-tender. His legs had no edema or muscle weakness, and the remainder of the examination was unremarkable. +A radiograph of the chest was normal. Computed tomography (CT) showed slight cortical atrophy in the bilateral kidneys; however, no kidney stone or hydronephrosis was observed. There was irregular thickening of the small bowel wall without adjacent fat stranding and no sign of inferior vena cava collapse. +Bilateral hydronephrosis and nephrolithiasis were excluded based on the CT scan data. Glomerulonephritis was also excluded based on the negative autoantibody findings. The ratio of urea nitrogen to creatinine was < 20, suggesting a possible cause for the intrinsic renal injury. There was no hematuria because the presence of red cells in the urine was due the trauma induced by urinary bladder catheterization on admission. Considering the low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and high urinary protein/creatinine ratio (11.04 g/g Cre), urinary N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (420.3 U/g Cre), and β2-microglobulin/creatinine ratio (149 µg/g Cre) , the patient was presumptively diagnosed with acute tubular necrosis with metabolic acidosis (anion-gap 23.5 mmol/L). Renal pathology findings on day 3 after admission revealed that 3 of 23 glomeruli were sclerotic and no significant pathological alterations were observed with light microscopy. However, the proximal tubular cells were diffusely enlarged with vacuolar degeneration. The same pathology may be seen with Fabry’s disease and use of osmotic diuretics, but the patient’s history was negative. All immunofluorescence results were negative and, apart from the vacuolization and swelling of the proximal tubules, no obvious abnormal findings were observed by electron microscopy. Based on the pathological findings and clinical course, the diagnosis of acute tubular necrosis was confirmed. +After admission, intravenous hydration therapy was started. On the day of presentation at the emergency unit (day 0), he was hospitalized and hemodialysis (HD) was introduced to remove Met and improve acid–base disruption and anuria. In detail, HD was performed with a polysulfone dialyzer [Pinnafine® PN-100 (filter size 1.0 m2, Fresenius Medical Care AG and Co., Hessen, Germany) (at day 0, 1, and 3 with small molecule heparin) or Pinnafine® PN-140 (filter size 1.4 m2, Fresenius Medical Care AG and Co., Hessen, Germany) (at day 5 and 7 with Nafamostat Mesilate)] with blood and dialysate (Kidaly 4E solution, Fuso Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd., Osaka, Japan) flow rates of 150 and 500 mL/min, respectively, for 3 hours per session. During the HD session, the patient’s condition was stable. The eGFR was calculated from serum creatinine levels on days 0, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 19 were 5.1, 4.5, 10.8, 31.9, 61.2, and 59.9 mL/min/1.73 m2, respectively . The patient resumed urination on day 2. On day 5, anuria was recovered after the third session of HD. Renal function gradually improved, and on day 11, the serum creatinine level reached 1.78 mg/dL. The patient was discharged 13 days after hospitalization, and no major prognostic problems were observed. +The plasma concentrations of Met were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)–ultraviolet (UV) as per a previous report , with slight modification and in accordance with the validation criteria guidelines of the US Food and Drug Administration . The Met concentrations on days 3, 5, and 7 were 8.95, 2.58, and 0.16 µg/mL, respectively. The semilogarithmic concentration–time plots for Met showed good linearity (R2 = 0.954, Fig. D). The one-compartment model pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis yielded an observed ke (day 3–7) of 0.04 hours−1 and calculated t1/2 (day 3–7) of 16.5 hours. Moreover, the t1/2 (day 3–5) was 26.7 hours, and t1/2 (day 5–7) was 11.9 hours. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2853_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2853_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..bf2d5139ac89cb56ccac594472e39636811dbacc --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2853_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 48-year-old man, with a history of depression medicated with mirtazapine 30 mg (once daily) and bupropion 300 mg (once daily), who also recently took various herbal products for weight loss, was transferred to the emergency room from a private clinic due to sudden coma.

In addition to antiplatelet therapy, he received a single 2.5 mg dose of fondaparinux, bisoprolol 2.5 mg once daily, and atorvastatin 80 mg once daily. He was admitted to the adult cardiac intensive care unit where he remained stable. Coronary angiography was performed the following morning. +Kawasaki disease was diagnosed at the age of 3 months in his country of origin for which he received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy on day 21 of his illness. He was not treated with acetylsalicylic acid nor was he anticoagulated. Echocardiography 6 days after IVIG treatment showed an aneurysm in the left main coronary artery measuring 5.5 mm. He responded well to treatment and remained under follow-up for mild left main coronary artery dilatation. +Aged 7 years following routine surveillance echocardiography suggestive of left anterior descending artery (LAD) stenosis, he underwent invasive coronary angiography. This demonstrated a small aneurysm followed by an 80% calcific stenosis of the proximal LAD, and a chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the dominant right coronary artery (RCA). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging showed reversible ischaemia in the inferior, inferolateral, and anterolateral walls. +In 2012 aged 8 years, he underwent elective intravascular ultrasound-guided rotablation-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to the proximal LAD with a 3.0 mm × 18 mm Multi-Link Vision bare-metal stent (Abbott Vascular, Chicago, USA; ). This corrected the CMR perfusion abnormalities initially, but from 2015 he was lost to follow-up and was not taking any medications. +Coronary angiography during the current admission demonstrated an unobstructed left main stem; however, the previous LAD stent was occluded with the distal vessel filling retrogradely via septal and well-developed epicardial collaterals from the RCA. The left circumflex artery (LCx) was unobstructed . There was a CTO in the RCA, as before, in the mid vessel . The likeliest explanation for his presentation was the insufficient ability of the collateral circulation to meet the metabolic demand of the heart during exercise, resulting in ischaemia and ventricular fibrillation. +Computed tomography of the brain demonstrated no acute intracranial abnormality, and his neurological course was unremarkable. +Following a local Heart Team discussion, he was transferred to a different centre with expertise in both adult and paediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery.

The results for thyroid function and electrolyte levels before and after treatment are listed in Table , which indicated that the patient’s thyroid function had improved. Hypothyroidism occurred during the course of treatment, but the patient’s thyroid function returned to normal after we reduced the dose of methimazole.

Her laboratory workup revealed a white blood count of 7,100/μl, hemoglobin of 8.9 g/dl and a platelet count of 60,000/μl, an unremarkable basic metabolic profile and normal liver function tests. Her ferritin (682 ng/ml) was elevated and both vitamin B12 (392 pg/ml) and folate (20 ng/ml) levels were within normal range. The patient developed another syncopal episode at home, and an emergency room workup confirmed mild anemia and thrombocytopenia with no clear evidence of active gastrointestinal bleeding. In December 2013, due to worsening symptoms, the patient presented to a different emergency room with gingival bleeding and petechiae on her lower extremities. She was found to have a hemoglobin level of 7.2 g/dl with a platelet count of 10,000/μl. The patient was admitted to the hospital, and a bone marrow biopsy was performed. Bone marrow aspiration could not be obtained, and the core biopsy revealed extensive involvement of metastatic carcinoma . Immunohistochemistry studies were highly suggestive of a breast primary (data not shown). A mammogram demonstrated a 2.4-cm mass at the 2 o'clock position in the right breast with suspicious axillary lymph nodes. The patient underwent a biopsy of both the primary breast lesion and of the axillary lymph nodes, which revealed invasive ductal carcinoma that was estrogen receptor-positive, progesterone receptor-positive and human epithelial growth factor receptor (HER2)-negative. Further staging workup demonstrated extensive osseous metastases, but no visceral metastases. She received a transfusion with 2 units of red blood cells and 1 apheresis unit of platelets, resulting in an improvement in hemoglobin from 7.2 to 10.1 g/dl and platelet count from 10,000 to 20,000/μl. She was discharged home and was started on endocrine therapy with both leuprolide and letrozole. Denosumab was also administered monthly for bone metastases. However, she did not respond either clinically or biochemically (rising CA 15-3) to the endocrine therapy and continued to experience frequent gum bleeds and petechial rashes throughout her body. +In March 2014, the patient transferred her care to our center. Restaging workup demonstrated extensive skeletal metastases without visceral involvement or splenomegaly (data not shown). A complete blood count showed a white blood count of 5,000/μl, hemoglobin of 9 g/dl and a platelet count of 10,000/μl. The patient received 1 unit of apheresis platelets urgently. Surprisingly, her platelet count did not increase at all, but decreased to 6,000/μl. The patient did not have headache, but she developed more extensive petechiae and hemorrhagic blisters in her mouth. Hence, she was admitted to the inpatient unit for further management. Both bone marrow biopsy from an outside facility and peripheral smear from our center were reviewed, and our pathologist concurred with the initial diagnosis. Peripheral blood examination of the peripheral blood smear in March 2014 revealed marked thrombocytopenia and anemia; some large platelets but no giant platelets were seen (photos are not available). There was no evidence of schistocytosis, which essentially ruled out intravascular or microangiopathic processes. It did reveal some teardrop cells, which was consistent with her bone marrow finding – a myelophthisis process. However, bone scan showed that a large fraction of long bones was spared by metastases. The disproportionate thrombocytopenia seems to suggest a dual pathological process: myelophthisis and peripheral consumption. The fact that her platelet count decreased upon platelet transfusion seems to suggest an immune-mediated peripheral destruction of platelets, which is, at least in part, responsible for her marked thrombocytopenia. All the other pertinent laboratory studies including folate, vitamin B12 level, thyroid function tests, antinuclear antibodies, Helicobacter pylori antibodies, hepatitis panel and HIV test were normal, and therefore a clinical diagnosis of ITP was established. In view of the substantial risk of fatal bleeding, the patient received IVIG (1 g/kg) daily for 2 days (3.4.2014 to 3.5.2014) and high-dose steroid methylprednisolone 500 mg i.v. daily for 3 days (3.4.2014 to 3.7.2014). As shown in figure , the patient's platelet count responded dramatically, increasing from 6,000 to 32,000/μl in 3 days. She was discharged home with oral prednisone 80 mg (1.5 mg/kg) daily. Her platelet count improved to 155,000/μl 1 week later and 171,000/μl 2 weeks after discharge. We started to taper down her prednisone and treat her metastatic breast cancer using chemotherapy with capecitabine (500 mg p.o. daily) since she did not respond to the first-line hormonal therapy. The patient's platelet count continued to improve and was stabilized at around 250,000/μl. Prednisone was tapered off over 3 months, and capecitabine was gradually increased to 1,500 mg p.o. daily. Interestingly, her hemoglobin had also improved during the course of the treatment, mirroring the response of platelet count. It cannot be explained by the therapeutic response from capecitabine which was started on 3.20.2014, while her hemoglobin improved dramatically from 8.1 to 10.3 g/dl in 3 days (3.4.2014 to 3.7.2014) and further improved to 12.2 g/dl on 3.14.2014. This seems to suggest a similar immune-mediated mechanism involved in the development of anemia. By the time of completion of this report, the patient continued to respond to the current therapy with discontinuation of steroids, and the restaging CT and bone scan in September 2014 demonstrated an excellent response to capecitabine. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2947_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2947_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..152337ff334817f52cf0ac5ca1ebe7d66ff0ed4d --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2947_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +An 8-month-old female patient was referred to our center due to severe cough, short of breath, fatigue and fever.

Oral furosemide and antisterone were given since then. She was also suggested to inhale oxygen at home even though she maintained her daily activities without additional requirement of oxygen. The patient was re-hospitalized several times because of recurrent pneumonia and heart failure thereafter.

Iron deficiency anaemia had been diagnosed in this patient at the age of 2 months. The patient was then put on iron supplements along with other vitamins necessary for erythropoiesis. Before his first birthday, celiac disease was histologically diagnosed, and anaemia was considered to be an accompanying disease. In early childhood, the patient experienced a cytomegalovirus infection as well as other typical childhood diseases. He was immunized according to his home country’s specific vaccination schedule and had an otherwise unremarkable childhood. Even though the patient had been put on oral iron and vitamin supplements, the severity of the anaemia remained within the moderate to severe range, only sporadically mild, and therefore the patient underwent further testing. At the age of 18, the patient underwent bone marrow examination with no pathologic findings, as well as an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, lower gastrointestinal endoscopy, and capsule endoscopy, all of which had done previously. This time, however, the discovery of dilated blood vessels in the duodenum was made during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, although neither angiodysplasia nor Osler-Weber-Rendu disease were found. A computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen was performed resulting in the discovery of an intestinal malrotation of the duodenum and an absence of the proximal part of the SMV with varices in the duodenal wall, which had functioned as a collateral blood flow due to mesenteric vein occlusion . The anaemia was proclaimed to be a result of chronic occult blood loss through dilated blood vessels in duodenal mucosa, and therapy slightly helped the condition at the time. +At the age of 22, the patient quit taking all supplements. The resulting life-threatening anaemia necessitated hospitalization and red blood cell transfusions within 6 months. Although, the transfusions did not yield the expected results, they indirectly confirmed a chronic loss via the duodenal collaterals. The patient underwent another computed tomography of the abdomen which confirmed the previous findings, and, after his condition was stabilized, was referred to our surgical clinic for a consultation. An elective surgery was scheduled for the following month. Meanwhile, the patient was treated with repeated intravenous iron supplementation and correction of hemostasis parameters. Finally, when the patient was admitted to our surgical ward, he was slightly pale but a physical examination produced no remarkable findings. The next day, he underwent surgery under general anaesthesia with mobilisation of the malrotated bowel, and after meticulous preparation we were able to find the suitable blood vessels for the bypass. After administering an intravenous heparin (100 units per kg), we created an anastomosis between the large collateral arising from the distal section of the SMV and the anterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal vein draining to the present proximal section of the SMV without any prosthetic material . We also performed ligation of some dilated veins on the duodenal surface with the aim to interrupt the blood flow in the duodenal varices. The postoperative period was unremarkable, and the patient was discharged to outpatient care. During the 3-month period after the surgery, we put the patient on anticoagulant treatment with low molecular weight heparins. Five months after the surgical intervention, a CT of the abdomen was performed to confirm the patency of the venous anastomosis and diminution of duodenal varices. A slightly stenotic passage through the anastomosis with a regression of the duodenal varices, draining into the SMV, was observed. Two months later, the patient underwent an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy with the intention to ligate the residual duodenal varices. The patient still has three large duodenal varices, which have been currently left untreated because of the patient’s good clinical and laboratory status with no clinical signs of bleeding and no anaemia or iron deficiency. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2957_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2957_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..841eab2a722a98c589853906840c56fcaa211a3a --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2957_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 34-year-old nulligravida with a remote history of follicular cyst treated by ovarian cystectomy presented with acute abdominal pain associated with emesis.

The patient was diagnosed with submandibular abscess et causa submandibular gland sialolithiasis, and stone and partial gland removal were planned. + +Surgical technique +Under general anesthesia, the stone and partial submandibular gland were surgically removed, along with the drainage of the submandibular abscess. Submandibular surgical access was established. Tissue dissection was done layer by layer including skin, connective tissue, until the platysma muscle. The submandibular gland was dissected out and partial removal of the submandibular gland was done. After the submandibular gland specimen evacuation, it was dissected to reveal the salivary gland stone, measuring approximately 1.2 cm. Postoperative medication, including intravenous antibiotics and symptomatic medication, was given. These regimens includes Ceftriaxone injection 1 g/12 h, Metronidazole injection 500 mg/8 h, Dexamethasone injection 5 mg/12 h, Ketorolac injection 30 mg/8 h, Paracetamol injection 500 mg/8 h, and Ranitidine injection 50 mg/12 h. + +Results +The patient was followed up seven days after the operation. Pain and swelling decreased significantly, and there was slight edema in the submandibular region. There were no wound-healing complications or postoperative complications with extraoral sutures intact and no dehiscence. The sutures were removed during this follow-up period. After the follow-up period, the patient was discharged with a stable and complication-free condition. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3147_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3147_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..29b60a2631764432cff658530ef2f7d75f68a70f --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3147_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,20 @@ +The patient in this fatal case was a 2-year-old girl who was born full-term and had developed normally.

The symptoms started on 10 November (3 days before admission), with a fever (up to 39.8 °C) but no chills, rash or convulsions. Ibuprofen was given orally. The body temperature decreased for 4 to 5 h but then climbed to 40.3 °C. Shortness of breath accompanied the fever, and the body temperature did not decrease obviously after the oral administration of ibuprofen. Wheezing caused by the retention of phlegm in the throat and a single paroxysmal cough occurred. The patient occasionally coughed up a small amount of yellow phlegm and had a slightly runny nose. She had no asthma, breathing difficulty or hemoptysis; she had lethargy and a poor appetite but no vomiting or diarrhea. On 11 November (2 days before admission), the patient still had a high fever, and her body temperature fluctuated around approximately 40 °C. The patient’s body temperature did not obviously decrease after she was given oral ibuprofen and acetaminophen alternately. Acute infection was considered from then on. The patient received an intravenous infusion of 0.14 g Zithromax and 120 mg rographolide as well as aerosol inhalation of 2 mg budesonide, but her fever persisted, and her body temperature rose to a peak of 40 °C. On 12 November (1 day before admission), the patient still had a persistent fever and wheezing due to the retention of phlegm in her throat. She had shortness of breath, a light cough, and a drooping spirit, accompanied by a rash on the torso and limbs. Her appetite was slightly improved, and she had no vomiting or convulsions. On 13 November, the patient had sudden respiratory and cardiac arrest 3 h before admission. She was immediately and continuously treated with cardiopulmonary resuscitation by physicians and the intravenous injection of adrenaline (4 times). She was treated with trachea cannula and mechanical ventilation, and her heart beat recovered approximately 15 min later, but the patient remained in a deep comatose state with no spontaneous breathing. Then, the patient was transferred to our hospital and immediately underwent electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring. Bloody fluid was visible in the indwelling gastrointestinal decompression tube, and the blood-gas analysis showed metabolic acidosis. The patient was treated with sodium bicarbonate to correct the acidosis. She was diagnosed with an acute CNS infection and brain hernia. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation, she was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). The head CT scan showed extensive brain swelling, decreased brain parenchymal density, narrowed cerebral ventricles and cisterns. These findings prompted a diagnosis of extensive brain edema and hernia. The chest posteroanterior radiograph showed fuzzy, coarse bilateral lung markings, visible small patchy shadows in the right inferior lung and a clear pulmonary hilus. These findings were diagnosed as pneumonia. Routine blood examination results suggested the presence of a bacterial infection; thus, the patient was treated with vancomycin and meropenem to control an infection. After that, immunoglobulin (1 g/kg) was administered for immune support. The patient was still in a deep coma state, and light reflexes of both pupils were absent. The patient’s spontaneous breathing was weak and irregular, and she had no response to painful stimulation. Compared with earlier, her rash was reduced, and the pulmonary lesions shown on the chest posteroanterior radiograph were slightly absorbed. Immunoglobulin (1 g/kg) was continuously administered to neutralize pathogens. On 15 November (3 days after admission), transcranial Doppler ultrasound assessment showed that the patient’s anterior and posterior cerebral circulation corresponded to the diagnostic criteria for brain death. On 17 November (5 days after admission), various organ functions failed, and the patient could not tolerate a spontaneous breathing test.

Because the patient’s guardian refused to consent to lumbar puncture, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was not available for the detection of CNS infection. + +The blood biochemistry results are summarized. The amounts of red blood cells (RBCs), hemoglobin, and platelets continuously decreased after the onset of symptoms. Extremely high levels of C-reactive protein from the third day (36–104 mg/L) suggested viral or bacterial infection; however, bacterial cultures of blood specimens yielded negative results. + + +The percentage of T lymphocytes was 46.6%, of which helper T cells and suppressor T cells accounted for 29.6 and 13.2%, respectively. The ratio of CD4/CD8 was 2.2. The proportions of B lymphocytes and NK cells were 45.6 and 3%, respectively. All these immunological indexes indicated dysfunction of the patient’s immune system. + +Metagenomic and viral molecular analysis +Oral swab, nasopharyngeal aspirate, and serum specimens collected on 14 Nov (the 5th day of disease onset and the 2nd day of admission) were subjected to multiplex metagenomic analyses using an NGS platform. The nucleic acid library was constructed as previously described. The amplified nucleic acid libraries were then analyzed using an Illumina HiSeq 4000 sequencer for a single read of 126 bp. The raw sequence reads were filtered using previously described criteria to obtain valid sequences. + +When bacteriophages, plant-origin sequences resulting from food debris in the oral cavity, and contamination from the reagents used in the sample processing step (murine leukemia virus (MLV), for example) were excluded, only human RSV (based on the NCBI taxonomy database) was identified, with at least one specific sequence from the oral swab (2137 reads) and the nasopharyngeal aspirate (146 reads). No virus-related sequences were detected in the serum specimen. Meanwhile, large numbers of sequence reads related to bacteria, including Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus parasanguinis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus salivarius, Streptococcus infantis, Streptococcus suis, Neisseria meningitidis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus sputorum, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Enterococcus cecorum, and other conditioned pathogenic bacteria were also detected in the oral swab, nasopharyngeal aspirate, or/and serum specimens. However, although the metagenomic analysis showed sequence reads assigned to Kingdom Bacteria, the bacterial culture of the blood specimens yielded negative results. + + + +Based on the random distribution of reads of the RSV virus genome, the complete length of the genome was obtained using NGS methods and gap amplification. This RSV strain was subtyped as RSVB; it was found to cluster in the BA genotype and had the signature 60-bp duplication in the G gene. The newly identified virus was named RSVB/BCH-Y/2016, and the full genome sequence was deposited in GenBank under accession number KY924878. The phylogenetic analysis was conducted with representative sequences from nearly all RSVB subgroups (BA1–10, GB1–4, SAB1–4, URU1–2) from GenBank; RSVB/BCH-Y/2016 belonged to BA9 subgroup. The nucleotide homology comparisons revealed that the G gene of this strain was most closely related (share 98.82% homology) to strain RSVB/GZ/13–730, which was isolated from a child in Guangzhou, China, in 2013. For the six most important antigenic sites (Ø, I, II, IV, V, VI) in the fusion protein for drug or vaccine (such as palivizumab) targeting, no mutation was found in RSVB/BCH-Y/2016. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3152_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3152_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1d3cbfdfe4d3e25950c4db7020341464711beb19 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3152_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,17 @@ +A 52-year-old woman was admitted with acute myocardial infarction due to a spontaneous right coronary artery dissection.

The post-procedural course was complicated by ventricular tachycardia (VT) and fibrillation for which she was successfully resuscitated. During the following hours she developed cardiogenic shock due to failure of the right ventricle (RV) that was refractory to fluid resuscitation and inotropes. She was transferred to the intensive care unit of a tertiary heart failure referral centre and was stabilized using peripheral veno-arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

In a BCPA, the superior vena cava (SVC) is disconnected from the right atrium and anastomosed end-to-side to the right pulmonary artery, redirecting a substantial proportion of the venous return directly to the lungs, bypassing the RV.

Light microscopy revealed virtually normal structures in seven obtained glomeruli, but diffuse and extensive interstitial infiltration with medium- to large-sized atypical lymphoid cells. Immunohistochemistry showed the cells to be positive for cytoplasmic CD3, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase, and Ki-67, but negative for CD20. Immunofluorescence staining and electron microscopy revealed no evidence of immune deposits. Bone marrow biopsy revealed > 25% blasts, and myeloperoxidase staining was negative.

Postoperatively, the vision gradually improved until two weeks post-surgery when the patient was noted to develop a low-lying inferior retinal detachment with surface proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), prompting a pars plana vitrectomy for retinal detachment repair. This surgery was performed seven weeks after the PVR diagnosis was made, and six months after the patient’s initial presentation at our facility. + +An aqueous humor (AqH) sample of the right eye was obtained during surgery for a chemokine/cytokine profile analysis. The levels of a panel of 22 cytokines and chemokines (ie, IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, IL-18, IL-1RA, IL-1a, IL-1α, IP-10, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, SDF-1α, IL-21, IL-22, IL-23, and IL-27) were tested in triplicate using a multiplex chemiluminescent immunoassay. The concentration of 7 cytokines/chemokines was detected including IFN-γ, TNF-α, IL-8, IL-18, MIP-1β, IP-10, and MCP-1. MCP-1 was the most abundant cytokine (900 pg/mL), while IP-10 was the second most abundant cytokine (800 pg/mL). IL-8 and IL-18 were the third most abundant cytokines, each with a level of 40 pg/mL, while IFN-γ and TNF-α levels of <10 pg/mL were recorded as the least abundant in this patient’s AqH sample. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3248_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3248_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f13e51e91cde87f5a4e7679d012e08d7752bfeae --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3248_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +A 62-year-old woman was referred to our department with complaints of low back and lower extremity pain for 2 years, 1.5 years after lumbar spine surgery, and recurrent low back pain for 1 year.

The injections were performed in both eyes three days apart under a surgical microscope in the operating room. The injections were administered by an experienced attending, under local anesthesia with topical oxybuprocaine (4 mg/mL) and after disinfection of the periocular skin with 10% povidone-iodine solution and the ocular surface with 5% povidone-iodine. Local anesthesia was supplemented with a subconjunctival injection of 2% lidocaine. The injection site was marked on the inferotemporal sclera, 4.0 mm OD (phakic eye) and 3.5 mm OS (pseudophakic eye) from the limbus. Paracentesis was not required to reduce intraocular pressure. After the injection, topical 5% povidone-iodine was reapplied to the conjunctival cul-de-sac. The procedures were uneventful, except for an extensive conjunctival hemorrhage OD. An appointment was scheduled fifteen days later to assess his intraocular pressure, but the patient missed it. + +Four months later, at the rescheduled appointment, the patient referred OD vision loss (from 4/10 to 2/10), which occurred a few days after the injection. On the slit-lamp observation, under pharmacological mydriasis, the implant was found in the right crystalline lens, in the pupillary area. The cataract was more advanced around the implant. The cornea remained transparent, with no inflammation observed in the anterior chamber, and the intraocular pressure was normal. The retinal OCT showed an improvement of macular edema in the OD, but not in the OS. An AS-OCT (Spectralis Heidelberg Engineering) was performed to better understand the location of the implant, its entry point and the non-integrity of the posterior capsule. + +Due to decreased visual acuity (VA), caused by the cataract progression and the implant’s position in the visual axis, the patient was scheduled for surgery. One week later, a phacoemulsification surgery with a three-piece hydrophobic intraocular lens (Alcon AcrySof® MA60AC) implantation in the sulcus, associated with anterior vitrectomy was completed. No lens fragments dropped during surgery. Hydro-dissection and hydro-delamination were avoided to prevent exacerbation of the suspected posterior capsular rupture. The repositioning of the implant into the vitreous cavity was unsuccessful, as the implant was friable and subsequently could not be grasped. As a result, the implant was aspirated during surgery. + +The patient had an uncomplicated post-operative recovery. One month after the surgery his OD BCVA was 9/10 and the OCT demonstrated the same CMT as before surgery. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3285_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3285_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..e9a6f37664607323a74d05228165097838897f63 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3285_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 37-year-old Thai woman presented with a 1-year history of painless proptosis of the left eye and complaints of diplopia during up gaze.

He has never had any symptoms like this before, and has poor insight into his symptoms. His behaviour and mental status have also been inappropriate, as the brother states he has been unable to complete activities of daily living such as bathing or feeding himself. His affect has also been more flat than normal, with the patient’s brother reporting significantly longer time to respond to questions than his baseline. He also reported one episode of hyper elation and agitation that resolved after several hours. He has been alert and oriented to only person and place, but not time (normally he is fully oriented). The patient denies any shortness of breath, chest pain, nausea, headache, vomiting, diarrhoea or decreased oral intake. He and his brother deny any trauma. The patient denies any hallucinations, delusions, depressed mood or worsening negative symptoms of schizophrenia. His medication regimen is notable for spironolactone 25 mg daily, torsemide 200 mg two times per day and metolazone 2.5 mg daily for diuresis. This large dose of diuretics was due to a recent hospitalisation for congestive heart failure exacerbation with volume overload. It was during this hospitalisation that torsemide was increased, and spironolactone was added with metolazone. His other home medications included atorvastatin 80 mg daily, clopidogrel 75 mg daily, hydroxyzine 25 mg as needed for itching, mirtazapine 30 mg daily, olanzapine 10 mg daily, trazodone 50 mg as needed for sleep, metoclopramide 5 mg as needed for nausea and pantoprazole 40 mg two times per day for heartburn.

He was alert and oriented, with no focal neurologic deficit, and a flat affect. He had very dry mucous membranes, decreased skin turgor and no oedema. His cardiac examination was notable for an irregular rhythm, no appreciated jugular venous distention with equal peripheral pulses. His pulmonary examination was overall clear to auscultation. Abdomen was non-distended, with normal bowel sounds. + +Basic metabolic panel on admission was notable for a serum sodium of 108 mmol/L, potassium of 1.5 mmol/L, chloride of 65 mmol/L, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) of 82 mg/dL and a creatinine of 2.32 mg/dL (baseline 1.2 mg/dL). His serum osmolality was 242 mOsm/Kg H2O. His urine sodium was 20 mmol/L, urine potassium 25.6 mmol/L, urine chloride 20 mmol/L and urine osmolality 204 mOsm/kg H2O.

In the setting of the patient’s presenting symptoms and severe hyponatremia, he was admitted to the internal medicine teaching service. + + +Outcome and follow-up + +Given his significant electrolyte abnormalities, prerenal azotemia, extensive and recently advanced home diuretic regimen and hypovolemic physical examination, the patient was assessed to be in severe hypotonic hyponatremia due to hypovolemia from over-diuresis as the cause of his presenting symptoms. In concordance with cardiology consultation, he was treated with gradual sodium correction with isotonic fluids. Normal saline was introduced at 100 mL/hour, with sodium checks in every 4 hours to avoid correction greater than 8–10 mmol/L in 24 hours. His home diuretics were held while correcting sodium. We also held his other home medications, including his schizophrenia medication olanzapine due to the risk of syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), which may worsen his hyponatremia. In addition, with the patient’s hypokalemia requiring aggressive repletion, we were concerned with continuing his olanzapine and its inherent risk of QT-interval prolongation. His electrolytes improved on this therapy, with a peak in sodium to 119 mmol/L on the morning of hospital day 4. However, by that afternoon, his sodium actually decreased to 116 mmol/L. At this point, his potassium and chloride had corrected, and his creatinine returned close to baseline. His presenting symptoms of ataxia, altered mental status and fatigue had slightly improved. He was able to walk around the room with supervision and had no falls. He was awake throughout the day and did not report fatigue. However, given that he was a poor historian with a very flat affect secondary to his schizophrenia history, it was difficult to ascertain his insight into his symptoms. It was also difficult to tell if his negative symptoms had worsened while holding olanzapine, but his brother confirmed that he was around his baseline in this regard. While he was oriented to person, place and time, his lack of insight and inability to describe his concerns remained a challenge throughout the hospitalisation. + +Following his initial presentation and volume repletion, his physical examination, symptoms, labs and imaging supported an euvolemic aetiology of his hyponatremia. He remained clear on pulmonary auscultation and did not have any abdominal distention, jugular venous distention or lower extremity oedema. He also did not report any cough, orthopnea, or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea. His BNP had decreased to 1837 pg/mL. A chest radiograph showed right basilar atelectasis with possible infiltrate, but was mostly stable compared with baseline. In conjunction with an euvolemic hyponatremia, an evaluation for SIADH was started. This was not only supported by his current examination status, but he was also being treated with olanzapine prior to admission, which has a risk for SIADH. His intravenous fluids were stopped and he was placed on a 1000 mL/day fluid restriction. However, his hyponatremia failed to significantly improve with a value of 117 mmol/L on the morning of hospital day 5, and 118 mmol/L on the morning of day 6. His urine electrolytes included a urine sodium of less than 20 mmol/L, urine potassium 26.9 mmol/L, urine chloride 23 mmol/L and urine osmolality 315 mOsm/kg H2O. His low urine sodium suggested that SIADH was not the aetiology of his hyponatremia. He remained clinically euvolemic on physical examination on hospital day 6, including normal pulmonary examination to auscultation, no jugular venous distention, no oedema, normal capillary refill and no abdominal distention. He also did not report cough, orthopnea or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea, and continued to state that he had been resting comfortably every night. + +In the setting of likely mismanagement of this patient’s hyponatremia, the primary inpatient teaching service used point-of-care ultrasound on the morning of hospital day 6 to better assess the patient’s volume status. The patient was found to have a moderate-sized right pleural effusion and diffuse pulmonary parenchymal B-lines suggesting pulmonary oedema. His inferior vena cava appeared plethoric and its diameter measured 2.5 cm with no respiratory variation. His estimated Caval Index was 1, given this lack of respiratory change, which is significantly higher than the estimated 0.35 in euvolemic patients.2 In all, the ultrasound findings supported hypervolemia. As a result, a diuretic regimen was started with oral torsemide 60 mg two times per day and his volume response and sodium were monitored closely. His sodium improved to 126 mmol/L on hospital day 7, and then he was successfully discharged home with a sodium of 132 mmol/L on hospital day 8. He was stable at time of discharge, with discharge summary stating to monitor volume status closely in upcoming appointments. He was also counselled on medication adherence, frequent weight monitoring and fluid restriction. Home health services were called prior to his discharge to discuss assisting his mother and brother with his care. + +While the internal medicine teaching service and the cardiology service recommended discharge to skilled nursing facility to help manage his medications and chronic debility, he wanted to be discharged home to his mother and brother. He followed up with his cardiologist 2 weeks after discharge, and was scheduled with his primary care physician but never arrived at that appointment. At the time of his cardiology follow-up, his diuretic regimen was torsemide 100 mg two times per day (down from 200 mg two times per day), spironolactone 25 mg daily (same as prior to hospitalisation) and metolazone 2.5 mg daily (same as prior to hospitalisation). In setting of his heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, he was started on 25 mg daily of metoprolol succinate. He had also resumed his home medications that were held during the hospitalisation, most notably olanzapine 10 mg daily and mirtazapine 30 mg daily for his schizophrenia. He had no complaints of fatigue, altered mental status, ataxia or abnormal behaviour. His sodium at this visit was 130 mmol/L, somewhat stable since discharge. Medication non-adherence remained an issue at follow-up, with patient having little understanding of his medical history or current medications. Home healthcare services assisted with medication adherence. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_32_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_32_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f7d8cfbecaec3480091037b7d24769d5922185c1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_32_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 38-year-old Chinese woman was an emergency admission to our hospital with a sudden onset of acute epigastralgia for the past 14 hours.

At laparotomy, we observed the ileocecal was relatively free , which was pulled by the ileum at omental sac area, the small intestine loop dilated and herniated through the hepatogastric ligament hiatus into retrogastric space , and then twisted out of a fissure in gastrocolic ligament. Approximately 1 m of her intestine showed edema; some of her small intestine was necrotic. Straightening some of her small intestine suggested intestinal malrotation for the cecum was free. There still was a diverticulum of approximately 3.0 × 6.0 cm sited at a distance of 80 cm from the ileocecal intestine. Finally, the strangulated intestinal loop and the diverticulum were resected, an appendicectomy was performed, and the fissure was closed.

The average fluorescence of RBCs with EMA staining in patients with spherocytosis is lower than that of control RBCs due to the decrease in the number of target proteins. In our case, this examination was in the normal range with a value of 12% (normal test value> 11%). The other complementary investigations carried out were the osmotic resistance tests such as the glycerol lysis test (AGLT50) and the Pink test. These tests were normal in our patient. Furthermore, quantitative analysis of membrane proteins was carried out using Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate-PolyAcrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and resulted not altered. We also performed the ektacytometry that evaluates the erythrocyte deformability by subjecting them to an increasing osmotic gradient with constant shear stress . Ektacytometry showed a left shift of the osmolarity curve suggestive of DHS.

We found in both subjects the missense variant c.1815G > A, p.Met605Ile in PIEZO1 gene (NM_001142864, CCDS54058) in heterozygous state. According to the guidelines of American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), we evaluated the pathogenicity of this variant by gathering evidence from various sources: population data, computational and predictive data, functional data, and segregation data . First, the variant segregated in the affected father . Currently, this variant is annotated neither in population databases nor in databases of known variant. Moreover, it is predicted by several tools as probably damaging (MutationTaster score 0.999 Disease causing; FATHMM Score − 1.59; LRT prediction Deleterious; PolyPhen2 score HumVar 0.968 Probably damaging; PROVEAN Score-2.95 Damaging). \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3326_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3326_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ff7def838cd77bc18262f66e65d9849383c84ecb --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3326_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +57-year-old woman, Laboratory Specialist Technician in the Microbiology Service with a personal history of polymyalgia rheumatica on chronic corticosteroid treatment.

The abdomen was mildly distended and soft, and the tumor was not palpable. Laboratory examinations showed no abnormalities in blood count, biochemistry, or coagulation markers, no elevation of tumor markers, and no elevation of immunoglobulins. Abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) showed a huge mass with a maximum diameter of 34 cm and well-defined borders, extending from the upper abdomen to the pelvis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intra-abdominal tumor 34 × 15 × 8 cm with partial signal hyperintensity on T2-weighted imaging, hypointensity on T1-weighted imaging. No internal calcification, fatty, or blood components were evident, and a portion of the tumor appeared to be in contact with the gastric body. Due to the history of bronchial asthma, a contrast-enhanced examination could not be performed. Endoscopic ultrasonography showed a heterogeneous hypoechoic internal cavity, but endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) was not performed, given the risk of seeding.

Intraoperative findings showed a giant tumor covered with a capsule occupying most of the left side of the abdominal cavity, extending from the pelvis to the diaphragm. The tumor showed firm adhesions to the stomach, transverse colon, and diaphragm without invasion of other organs. The omentum, with dilated vessels, was also adherent to the tumor, so the tumor had to be partially resected en bloc with portions of the stomach, transverse colon, and diaphragm. After tumor resection, primary anastomosis of the colon and closure of the diaphragm were performed. The tumor appeared to have been completely excised without rupture of the capsule. The operative time was 3 h 57 min, with a total blood loss of 110 mL. The excised specimen measured 38 × 21 × 8 cm and weighed 6400 g. The surface was smooth, and the interior was homogeneously filled with tumor on macroscopic examination. Pathological examination revealed atypical cells with spindle-shaped nuclei and collagen fiber hyperplasia in the stroma. Immunostaining showed negative results for c-kit, CD34, desmin, and S-100, while positive results for β-catenin confirmed the diagnosis of a desmoid tumor. Pathological results for the surgical margins were negative, confirming complete surgical resection. Despite pathological examination of the resected organs, determining the primary site of tumor origin was difficult. The patient was discharged 17 days after surgery, despite the appearance of surgical site infection. Colonoscopy revealed no polyps. A CT scan conducted 12 months after surgery showed a nodule 3.0 cm in diameter near the suture line of the gastric body; however, its size remained unchanged on a subsequent CT scan taken 9 months later, 21 months postoperatively.

He was severely tachycardic (heart rate was 180 beats/minute) and markedly hypertensive despite repeated non-invasive blood pressure measurements from all limbs (blood pressure was 191/120 mmHg). He also had frequent desaturations to SpO2 80 to 90% (on FiO2 100% via bag-and-mask ventilation) with audible leak. He was poorly perfused but central pulses were present. Bilateral diffuse crackles were heard on lung auscultation, and there was large amount of frothy endotracheal tube (ETT) secretions that required frequent tube suctioning. Dual heart sounds were appreciated with no murmur. Liver edge was felt 1 cm below right subcostal margin, and no organomegaly was noted. Neurological examination revealed generalised hypotonia, areflexia, with no plantar response elicited, likely due to residual muscle relaxant effect. There were no external injuries found. Fundoscopy was not possible as his pupils were pinpoint due to ongoing midazolam infusion. Further history from his childcare teacher and both parents did not suggest an apparent unifying diagnosis for his clinical presentation then. Computed topography (CT) scan of the brain showed acute subdural haemorrhages along the posterior falx, left tentorial leaflet and overlying both high parietofrontal convexities. No significant mass effect, hydrocephalus, brain herniation or acute territorial infarct was noted. As he continued to have frequent recurrent desaturations despite ETT suctioning which by then yielded blood-stained frothy secretions, he was re-intubated with Size 4.5 cuff ETT (previous ETT was Size 4, uncuff), as these events were attributed initially to high leak and resultant inadequate ventilation. Prior to transfer to the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU), his blood pressure had returned to normal values, but his SpO2 continued to fluctuate between 80 to 90% on FiO2 100% despite high ventilatory pressures. Neuroprotective measures were instituted. + +On transfer to the PICU, he continued to have persistent desaturation (SpO2 70–80%) despite adequate ventilation of the patient.

Within 10 h of admission to the PICU, veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support was initiated. ECMO flow ranged from 0.7 to 0.98 LPM (Cardiac index of 2.0 to 2.1 based on his basal surface area). He was peripherally cannulated via right internal jugular vein and right common carotid artery. The extracorporeal circuit was anticoagulated with systemic heparin. There was no haematological complication, even though he had coexisting bilateral subdural haemorrhages on admission.

Possible differential diagnoses considered for his acute brain injury were that of underlying undiagnosed bleeding diathesis, intracranial vascular malformation, aneurysm or neoplasia, cerebral infections, rare metabolic disorders such as glutaric aciduria, and lastly non-accidental injury (NAI). His initial coagulation profile and full blood count were both normal, and had no previous or family history suggestive of an underlying bleeding diathesis. His clinical presentation, initial white blood cell count and inflammatory markers did not suggest bacterial sepsis or meningitis, and later viral studies did not suggest viral encephalitis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain that was done 2 days after decannulation from ECMO showed bilateral subdural haematomas and mild sulcal subarachnoid haemorrhage. There was diffuse symmetrical white and grey matter signal abnormality and focal areas of parenchymal swelling. These features were suggestive of diffuse brain injury, which may have been a result of hypoxic-ischaemic injury, post-seizure changes, toxic and metabolic derangements or post-trauma changes. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) brain scan and transcranial doppler (TCD) of major cerebral vessels were both normal. Comprehensive metabolic workup did not reveal any underlying metabolic disorder. Slit-lamp examination of the eyes, which was done on the second day of admission, revealed extensive acute bilateral intra-retinal haemorrhages, raising the possibility of shaken baby syndrome. A full skeletal survey did not reveal any other bone fractures. A thorough investigation by the local justice system did not uncover any proof of NAI at home or at his childcare centre. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_356_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_356_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..98c4620e1b590acd9a7f39a9d59d4ab1c9550660 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_356_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +This 43-year-old woman was previously in good health.

Consequently, the patient developed repetitive syncope episodes lasting 2–3 min for which hospitalization was necessary. +A single mass of 120 mm × 90 mm was detected in the supraclavicular area on palpation . No outstanding findings were detected with cardiac ultrasonography or cerebral magnetic resonance imaging. No blood biochemistry findings suggestive of anemia, dehydration, hypoglycemia, electrolyte abnormalities or thyroid disorder were observed. +After admission, ADL decreased and the patient became bedridden because of his anticipatory anxiety for syncope onset. Subsequently, syncope episodes disappeared; however, the patients complained of prodromal symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and ocular pain. These symptoms persisted for 20–30 min, spontaneously disappeared, and recurred three to four -times daily. When prodromal symptoms occurred, the heart rate ranged between 20 and 30 bpm and systolic blood pressure decreased by 50 mmHg. Holter electrocardiography performed on the day after admission revealed stable blood pressure and heart rate as long as no syncope occurred. During a syncope episode, however, abrupt bradycardia persisted for 1–2 min, initially with a non-sinus rate, then returning to a sinus rate . This cycle recurred five to six -times in 20–30 min. During this period, arrest for more than 2 s was frequently observed, and the recovery time in the sinus node was within 5 s. One of the factors contributing to the prodromal symptoms was cervical rotation toward the tumor side. Although the head-up tilt test could not be performed owing to the patient’s poor health condition, postural change with angles between 0° and 80° were performed using a motorized bed. The postural changes did not induce prodromal symptoms or changes in blood pressure or heart rate, which did not support a diagnosis of vasovagal syncope. Although the tilt table test with carotid sinus massage was avoided because of the patient’s poor health condition, the patient was diagnosed with a mixed-type secondary CSS based on the syncope episodes. +The patient understood his status well, including the poor prognosis. On admission, he expressed that he knew he might live a few weeks at best. His will was not to undergo life-prolonging treatment but to obtain symptom relief and respect for his autonomy. In particular, he wished for reduction of the severity of the prodromal symptoms and improvement of his autonomy by reducing anticipatory anxiety. He declined to receive palliative radiation therapy to the cervical tumor or implantation of a temporary or permanent pacemaker because of their invasive nature and his poor prognosis. +Palliative radiation therapy to the cervical tumor was initially considered; however, it was not warranted based on the patient’s will and because the effects of this treatment could take some time to be reflected in the patient’s condition and because this treatment was associated with poor prognosis. Implantation of a temporary or permanent pacemaker was also initially considered; however, it was not warranted based on the patient’s will as well as the suspected vasoinhibitory-predominant mixed-type . Although treatment with α1 adrenergic agonist was initially considered, it was not warranted based on the patient’s history of swallowing disorder due to recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis associated with the cervical tumor. +On the fourth day of hospitalization, the patient discovered that he could decrease the duration of prodromal symptoms by contracting the muscles in his hands and legs, by clenching his hands into fists and continuously stomping his feet on his bed while lying in it. In particular, symptoms that had previously persisted for 20–30 min were resolved in several tens of seconds by applying his coping method. When he tried to cope with the prodromal symptoms, his heart rate decreased up to 20–30 bpm; however, no change in blood pressure was observed. He hoped for improvement of his autonomy and discovered this coping method incidentally and with the support of medical staff. Based on his experience, he recognized these actions as effective coping and applied them whenever he experienced prodromal symptoms. +Because coping reduced the severity and duration of prodromal symptoms, the patient recognized amelioration of the prodromal symptoms. Subsequently, his anticipatory anxiety for syncope was reduced, resulting in enhanced self-efficacy. He had demonstrated improved ADL, including being able to elevate his head with the motorized bed, maintaining a sitting position and performing cervical rotation as early as 1 day after the initiation of coping. As ADL improved, the frequency of prodromal symptoms transiently increased up to seven or eight times a day during the early phase of coping. The frequency thereafter decreased and eventually the prodromal symptoms subsided after 4 days of coping. Nineteen days after admission, he developed sudden aspiration pneumonia secondary to recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis associated with the cervical tumor and decreased awareness. He had not complained of prodromal symptoms and had maintained his ADL status for the 19 days after admission. On day 21 after admission, he died from respiratory failure. +As far as we know, this is the first report of a case of end-stage cancer that led to enhanced self-efficacy with self-control of prodromal symptoms of syncope associated with secondary CSS. There are two critical points in this case. First, prodromal symptoms of syncope associated with CSS were successfully self-controlled. Second, the frequency of prodromal symptoms of syncope decreased after self-control became effective. +The first critical point in this case was that prodromal symptoms of syncope associated with CSS were successfully self-controlled. The hypothesis that the tumor could induce depolarization in afferent and efferent nerve fibers was a possible underlying mechanism of CSS in this case of cervical tumor; however, details regarding this hypothesis have not yet been elucidated. Efferent nerve fibers involved in the carotid sinus reflex split into the cardiac vagal nerve, which is distributed to the sinus and the atrioventricular nodes. The sympathetic nerve is distributed to the ventricular myocardium and peripheral blood vessels . Depending on the abnormality of the regulating function, CSS is classified as cardio-inhibitory type when the stimulation of the vagal nerve inhibits the sinus node function or atrioventricular conduction, or a vasodepressor type when the inhibition of the synthetic nerve reduces blood pressure . In our case, we feel that the patient’s coping method, consisting of contracting the muscles in his hands and legs, induced is peripheral vasoconstriction followed by enhanced synthetic nerve function, which avoided an abrupt decrease in blood pressure. Indeed, based on the Holter electrocardiogram, we observed that an abrupt decrease in blood pressure by 50 mmHg or greater occurred within 66 s after the bradycardia emerged. In contrast, after his coping method was applied, there were no decreases in blood pressure although comparable bradycardia occurred. Based on these episodes, this patient was considered to present a vasoinhibitory-predominant mixed-type CSS. As this patient was not monitored with direct measurement of arterial pressure, no continuous blood pressure data were available. It was previously reported that blood pressure showed the lowest value 18 ± 3 s after the carotid sinus massage in a vasoinhibitory-type CSS . Similarly, blood pressure might have decreased rapidly in our patient after cervical rotation. Coping in our case was considered to have either avoided the abrupt decrease in blood pressure or contributed to rapid recovery from hypotension. Additionally, it was reported that interruption of cerebral circulation for 6–8 s or a decrease in systolic blood pressure to 60 mmHg can result in syncope . Thus, the recovery period in the sinus node might be within 5 s, thus, bradycardia alone was not considered to be a primary factor for the prodromal symptoms of syncope. +The second critical point from this case was that not only the severity of prodromal symptoms of syncope decreased but also the frequency of prodromal symptoms decreased gradually after self-control became effective. Although the frequency of prodromal symptoms transiently increased with improved ADL in the early phase, the symptoms had almost resolved 4 days after the initiation of coping. This amelioration was considered to be due to decreased subjective symptoms associated with increased threshold for the prodromal symptoms of syncope. It was reported that the preventive effects of pacemaker treatment against recurrence of syncope can be attributed to a placebo effect caused by pacemaker implantation . Namely, self-efficacy enhanced by self-control might contribute to a placebo effect that increased the threshold of symptoms. As for pain management, it was reported that a patient’s recognition of self-efficacy that can reduce pain enhances analgesic potency . Additionally, in an experimental study of end-stage cancer patients, the existence of stress associated with decreased ADL was observed . Coping in this case might have led to stress reduction caused by increased ADL, possibly resulting in an increased threshold of symptoms. Furthermore, tilt training was reported to prevent the recurrence of neurally mediated syncope . Coping in this case led to an increased duration of sitting due to improved ADL, which might possibly work as a preventive exercise against the recurrence of prodromal symptoms of syncope. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_464_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_464_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..b08ed028e82cd8b0610f333884061ca345a9b87f --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_464_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 24-month-old female with a 2-month history of psychomotor retardation, weight loss, and unremarkable medical history was admitted to our institution.

The family of the patient reported that she had a history of fever before she experienced the mental symptoms. Her highest body temperature was 38.6 °C. Her axillary temperature became normal after she received antibiotic therapy for 4 days. However, she gradually developed symptoms of mental abnormality. She also intermittently complained of abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation, and urinary incontinence for 1 month. She did not experience other discomforts, such as headaches, dizziness, and convulsion. She visited a local hospital in October 2018, and the routine blood test showed that the white blood cell counts were normal, and the percentage of lymphocytes was high. The blood potassium was 1.91 mmol/l (normal 3.5-5.3 mmol/l), and the prolactin level was 90.55 μg/l (normal 2.74–26.72 μg/l).

He was intubated due to severe hypoxaemia [Horovitz index 111, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 18 cmH2O, pressure control max. 32 cmH2O, FiO2 80%]. Sufficient oxygenation and normocapnia (pO2 89 mmHg, pCO2 45 mmHg) were achieved. Tachycardic AF up to 180 b.p.m. was successfully electrically cardioverted. However, bedside echocardiography showed globally reduced left ventricular systolic function (LVSF) and ejection fraction (EF, 30%), necessitating noradrenaline and dobutamine support (initial dosages 0.32 μg/kg/min and 6.67 μg/kg/min, respectively). Pulse contour cardiac output monitoring was established (initial values: cardiac index 1.6 L/min/m2, cardiac function index 2.2 L/min, global end-diastolic volume index 791 mL/m2, pulse pressure variation 14%, extra-vasal lung water index 35.3 mL/kg, pulmonary–vascular permeability index 7.2) to guide further treatment, including careful volume resuscitation, argipressin (1.8 IU/h), hydrocortisone (8 mg/h), and continuous landiolol (initial dose 8 μg/kg/min) for control of reoccurring tachycardic AF. +A chest X-ray showed bilateral consolidations compatible with ARDS .

Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) was established and upgraded with an immunoadsorbant filter (Cytosorb®) for 48 h to counteract a suspected cytokine storm mirrored by rising interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels. The initial pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was 1612 ng/L, ultimately reaching 10-fold levels. High sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) values were undulant during the entire stay, with maximum levels of 200 ng/L. For the development of laboratory values over time, see . Due to organizational reasons and potential cardiac side effects, it was chosen not to administer experimental therapeutics such as hydroxychloroquine, tocilizumab, or antiviral agents. +More frequent tachycardic AF episodes did not respond to electrical cardioversion, escalation of landiolol (up to 40 μg/kg/min without effect of further escalation), or addition of amiodarone (300 mg in 30 min and 38 mg/h over 24 h thereafter). Also, digitoxin (0.25 mg daily) and ivabradine (5 mg twice daily)—initially showing promising results—ultimately proved ineffective. Progressing heart failure seemed to be mainly dependent on tachycardic AF. Levosimendan (10 μg/kg/min for 10 min and 0.2 μg/kg/min for 24 h thereafter) led to a transient positive effect that only lasted ∼24 h. In echocardiographic controls, pericardial effusion (circumference, 2–3 cm, ) developed in 48 h, leading to pericardial tamponade that was successfully drained (a SARS-CoV-2 test from the fluid was negative). After pericardiocentesis, haemodynamics improved only transiently, and LVSF/EF deteriorated rapidly. At this stage, an ultima ratio treatment option would have been veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). However, existing literature surrounding the role of VA-ECMO in the treatment of COVID-19-associated cardiogenic shock is scarce.

Embolization was carried out using pushable coils of various sizes in the usual “front door – back door” technique over a 2.7 French (F) Progreat microcatheter (Terumo, Tokyo, Japan) which is routinely used in our institute for such embolization procedures. During embolization, the last VortX-Diamond-18 pushable coil (Boston Scientific, Massachusetts, USA) measuring 6 × 6.7 mm was dislocated into the CHA causing a subsequent slowing down of the blood flow in the vessel. A decision was thereby made to remove the coil by retrieving it through the 5F SIM1-Catheter (Boston Scientific, Massachusetts, USA), which was already positioned in the coeliac trunk as a guiding catheter for the initial embolization of the GDA. An initial trial to remove the coil using a 4 mm Amplatz GOOSE-NECK® Microsnare Kit (ev3, Minneapolis, USA) was unsuccessful. Consequently, the decision was made to retrieve the dislocated coil using a cerebral pRESET stent retriever (4 × 20 mm). For this procedure, the initially used 2.7F Progreat microcatheter was brought distal to the dislocated coil and the pRESET was placed in the CHA covering the dislocated coil . The coil was easily pulled back all the way to the SIM1-Catheter. The first trial to retrieve the coil into the lumen of the SIM1-Catheter was however unsuccessful, with the coil dislocating back into the periphery of the CHA. In the second trial, an extra step to lock the dislocated coil within the meshwork of the pRESET was performed by carefully pushing the microcatheter to the position of the dislocated coil while pulling the stent retriever . The coil was then carefully retrieved by pulling back the pRESET together with the microcatheter into the SIM1-Catheter using gentle repetitive pulling movements.

The gastric antrum and duodenal bulbar mucosa were biopsied, and the histopathological results showed mild chronic inflammation. A colonoscopy indicated erosive colitis . Pathological examination of mucosal surface tissues of each segment of the colon showed that the mucosa presented mild chronic inflammation, a large number of lymphocytes and eosinophils infiltrated in lamina propria, with a maximum of 85 cells per high power field, and crypt abscesses in the ascending and transverse colon. Next, the neutrophil oxidative burst test was performed using the DHR assay. The DHR assay of the patient’s granulocytes revealed almost absence of fluorescence upon granulocyte stimulation.

Stainless-steel hand K-files along with nickel-titanium rotary instruments were employed to instrument the invaginated canal; however, with caution not to surpass the length of the canal. In the process, the invagination was irrigated thoroughly with 1.5% sodium hypochlorite solution (NaOCl) and 0.9% saline solution. Moreover, a sonic-activated device was employed to attain a more effective debridement. It was necessary to irrigate the invagination thoroughly due to the complex canal structure. Paper points were employed to dry the invaginated canal, followed by application of paste of calcium hydroxide, and then temporary filling material (Caviton; GC Co., Tokyo, Japan) was employed to seal the access cavity. +During the second appointment after 2 weeks, the patient felt well, and the fistula on the distal and lingual gum of the right mandibular central incisor had disappeared. The giant abscess on the labial gingiva of the left mandibular central incisor was relieved but not healed. Abundant irrigation using 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution was employed to remove the intracanal dressing of the invagination along with the smear layer. Subsequently, copious 1.5% NaOCl and saline with the sonic-activated device were applied. After that, paper points were employed to dry the invaginated canal, which was then obturated with the Vitapex (Neo dental co., Tokyo, Japan). Then we took the radiographic imaging of the teeth to confirm the position of the Vitapex , and GIC (glass ionomer cement) (GlasIonomer FX-II; Shofu Inc, Kyoto, Japan) was used to seal the access cavity. +At the third appointment after 1 month, the patient felt well, and the right mandibular central incisor had no clinical signs or symptoms. There was still an abscess on the labial gingiva of the left mandibular central incisor, although it was smaller. For the right mandibular central incisor, Vitapex was obturated in the invagination canal to induce root development, and then used GIC and composite resin (Z350; 3M ESPE, St Paul, MN, USA) to seal the access cavity. For the left mandibular central incisor, it was identified that main root canal pulp was infected, and treatment was required. Under local anesthesia utilizing articaine with 1:10,000 epinephrine, small round bur was employed to prepare an endodontic access to the main root canal, and the pulp was found to be necrotic. A stainless-steel hand K-files was employed to simply instrument the main root canal and was irrigated abundantly with 1.5% NaOCl and 0.9% saline solution with a sonic-activated device to obtain more effective chemical debridement. Paper points were used to dry the main root canal, followed by application of calcium hydroxide paste via syringe, and the access cavity was sealed with GIC. At the same time, we replaced the dressing in the invagination with Vitapex . +At the fourth appointment after three weeks, there were no clinical signs or symptoms of the left mandibular central incisor. 2% mepivacaine hydrochloride (no epinephrine) was used to perform local anesthesia, followed by reaccession of the main root canal. Next, 0.9% saline along with a sonic-activated device were utilized to remove the calcium hydroxide paste. Gentle irrigation of the canal with 17% EDTA solution (20 mL) was performed and followed by drying using paper points. The canal was over-instrumented with a precurved K-file extending 2 mm past the apical foramen, to induce bleeding. The instrument was extended 3–4 mm below the CEJ (cementoenamel junction) to allow formation of a bold clot. We placed an iRoot BP Plus (Innovative BioCeramix, Vancouver, BC, Canada) on top of the blood clot. At the same time, iRoot SP (Innovative BioCeramix) and warm gutta-percha obturation replaced the Vitapex in the invaginated root canal. Then, the tooth was sealed with GIC and was restored using a composite resin. A radiographic image verified the position of the iRoot BP Plus . +Eighteen months later, there were no clinical signs or symptoms of the mandibular central incisors. According to the radiographic image, the open apex was closed, and the root continued to develop. Therefore, iRoot SP and warm gutta-percha obturation replaced the Vitapex in the invaginated root canal of the right mandibular central incisor, and then the tooth was finally restored with composite resin . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_545_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_545_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..0f71b0ae7738d6ef6a26ec8f28162419c78aeae0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_545_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 67-year-old healthy woman was referred to the division of thoracic surgery at our hospital for an abnormal shadow detected during a regular annual medical check-up.

Computed tomography (CT) image taken 2 years prior to this visit for close examination of the protrusion showed a 4-cm mass ( and ), although it was not noted by the physicians. She did not experience angina, either at rest or with exertion, or other symptoms. Her medical history was unremarkable from a cardiovascular perspective. Computed tomography revealed a mass ∼5 cm in size in the mediastinum bordering the left side of the pulmonary artery, suspicious for lymphoma, neurogenic tumour, or germ cell tumour. Positron emission tomography-CT demonstrated negative uptake of 18F-FDG. The inside of the mass showed contrast enhancement equivalent to that of a blood vessel and thrombus formation, suggesting an aneurysm. The patient was referred to the Division of Cardiology. +The physical examination results were normal. No abnormalities were observed in the blood tests, e.g. troponin I, 3.3 pg/mL (normal <70 pg/mL). Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a large mass connecting to the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Blood flow into the mass cavity was detected, suggesting a coronary artery aneurysm. Coronary flow velocity by transthoracic Doppler echocardiography demonstrated a dominant systolic component at the left main coronary trunk proximal to the fistula and inside the mass, suggesting a steal phenomenon. . The left ventricular wall motion was normal, and the ejection fraction was estimated to be 72%. +A 64-slice coronary CT angiography revealed a giant coronary aneurysm with coronary fistula (48 × 45 × 55 mm), with internal homogeneous contrast enhancement on arterial phase and thrombus formation, connected to the mid-portion of the LAD . The aneurysm branched into a tortuous vessel connected to the main pulmonary artery. Another fistula from the proximal portion of the right coronary artery (RCA) drained into the left atrium and the main pulmonary artery. +Adenosine triphosphate stress myocardial perfusion scintigraphy identified reversible perfusion defects in the anterior wall, representing myocardial ischaemia in the territory of the LAD . Conventional coronary angiography confirmed a giant aneurysm originating from the LAD, to which blood flow was supplied during systole . The aneurysm outflow was obscured due to the dilution of the contrast dye by the large aneurysmal sac. Other anomalous vessels started from the proximal portion of the RCA , as shown by CT. No occlusive atherosclerotic lesions were observed. Mean pulmonary artery wedge pressure and pulmonary artery pressure were measured to be 9 and 23/9/14 mmHg (systolic/diastolic/mean), respectively. The Qp/Qs ratio was calculated to be 1.2. +Because of the risk of rupture due to progressive enlargement of the aneurysm and the presence of ischaemia, the patient was immediately transferred to the cardiac surgery department without receiving additional medical treatment other than bisoprolol. The patient underwent elective surgery via median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass. The fistula vessel between the proximal RCA and the main pulmonary artery was ligated. A 50-mm aneurysm was identified in the fistula vessel originating in the LAD and incised; a mural thrombus largely occupied it. Inflow path from the LAD was ligated. Two outflow vessels were identified and ligated; one connected to the main pulmonary artery, the other had not been detected during preoperative imaging tests. The aneurysm was resected, and subsequently, a left atrial appendage closure was performed due to paroxysmal atrial fibrillation detected during her hospitalization. The patient recovered uneventfully, except for a transient atrial fibrillation, and was discharged from the hospital. Edoxaban and bisoprolol were administered for 3 and 7 months, respectively.

She had been referred to the HGE department for vomiting, abdominal pain and persistent hiccups lasting for about a month, which were thought to be due to gastritis with multiple ulcers based on a digestive endoscopy. Prior to admission to the HGE department, she initially received anti-ulcer and antiemetic drugs, but the outcome was marked by persistent vomiting and the appearance of episodes of prolonged loss of consciousness. Before the appearance of digestive problems, the patient presented with headaches and auditory and visual hallucinations due work-related stress. The examination also confirmed the existence of evening fever, weight loss without cough and secondary amenorrhea unrelated to pregnancy. +On day 1 of neurological problems, an examination confirmed the persistence of digestive symptoms, apyrexia, the existence of a headache, left hemibody ataxia with nystagmus when looking to the left, pronounced left osteotendinous reflexes, and left hemibody hypoesthesia up to the base of the neck. Encephalic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a hypersignal lesion in the bulbar more lateralized on the left in the fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequence not enhanced after a gadolinium injection .

Biopsy of the nodules and plaques revealed caseous granulomatous inflammation and the specimen were stained positive for acid-fast bacilli. Histopathology of the cocoon wall revealed fibrocollagenic tissue with granulomatous inflammation, and culture of the biopsied specimen grew Mycobacterium tuberculosis 3 weeks later. A diagnosis of tuberculous abdominal cocoon was made. Complete excision of the thick membrane and lysis of adhesions were tried but failed due to the extreme difficulty in separating the fibrotic tissue from the abdominal wall and small bowel. Since there were no perforated, ischemic or dilated bowel loops, the operation was completed after obtaining samples for diagnostic biopsy. +After operation, the patient had recurrent episodes of partial bowel obstruction that was resolved with conservative management. The patient was given rifampicin, isoniazid, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide for 2 months, followed by rifampicin and isoniazid for 4 months. By the end of the 2 month of anti-tuberculous therapy, serum ADA, ESR and CA 125 levels have returned to normal. Though a repeat CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis continued to show the small bowel wall thickening and membrane covering the small bowels , and gastrografin meal follow through study revealed adherent small bowel loops with delayed transit time , however, the ascites has greatly diminished and the patient was functioning normally. No further surgical intervention was planned for him, and he was followed up symptom-free for 6 years. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_574_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_574_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..4e5a1fd58f0929751d407409df82a4b6b6398398 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_574_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 68-year-old male presented with entire body burns.

Vital signs on admission were as follows; Glasgow Coma Scale 15 points, body temperature 35.8°C, heart rate 98 bpm, blood pressure 170/85 mm Hg, respiratory rate 20 bpm, and oxygen saturation 100% with 10-liter mask. Erythema and bullae were observed on the auricular to mandible neck, thorax, abdomen, occiput, right upper arm, right dorsal hand, and left forearm. His anterior chest and posterior neck were covered with soot, and the skin in these areas had turned a grayish white . Soot was observed in the nasal and oral cavity, pharynx, and larynx, suggesting burn of the upper respiratory tract. Bronchoscopy showed soot adhesion, peripheral edema, and mucosal redness from the vocal cords to the period. Total burn surface area was 35%, which included 20% second-degree burns and 15% third-degree burns. The revised BAUX score was 120. +An overview of the hospital is shown in Figure . The burn-site was washed daily with warm water, treated with dimethyl isopropylazulene and gentamicin sulfate ointment and protected with moist wound care pads. At the time of admission, the guarantor's approval was not obtained, which prevented aggressive initial burn treatment such as debridement and skin grafting. +On day 8, he had a high fever of 38°C–40°C with a markedly increased inflammatory response, and the blood culture revealed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Vancomycin and ampicillin/sulbactam were administered empirically against the burn-site infections. After the infections were under the control, the first split-thickness skin grafts (STSG) were performed on day 17 in the operating room. The skin grafts (0.01 inch graft) were harvested from the healthy skin on both thighs by using electric dermatome and meshed for expansion at the ratio of 1:3. After the first debridement and STSG on day 17, ampicillin/sulbactam was discontinued because of the appearance of erythema mainly on the lateral abdomen and suspected drug rash. Cefepime dihydrochloride hydrate was driven to start because acinetobacter baumannii was detected from a blood culture on day 20. Because the burn-site infections had been continuously manageable, the second STSG for the back area was performed on day 24. The skin was harvested from both lateral thighs and meshed at a ratio of 1:1.5. +From day 30, the redness on the trunk and extremities rapidly worsened, and some blistering was observed. We diagnosed as erythema multiforme because of drug eruption, then all antimicrobial agents were terminated. Because the erythema multiforme did not improve after the discontinuation of antimicrobial therapy, systemic administration of 40 mg/day prednisolone was initiated. However, on day 35, the erythema expanded and erosions and blisters formed on more than 30% of the body surface area. Nikolsky phenomenon and oral mucosal lesions were observed, especially on the back and extremities . Because erythema, blisters, and erosions were widely distributed and exceeded 10% of the body surface area with a fever above 38°C, we diagnosed the case as TEN and initiated steroid-pulse therapy (methylprednisolone 1,000 mg/day) for 3 days. This treatment was successful and the erosions and blisters gradually improved without any exacerbation of infection. On day 37, the erythema began to fade . On day 38, we switched the steroids therapy to oral prednisolone 60 mg/day. Prednisolone was tapered by 10 mg every week. No signs of infection was observed after discontinuation of antimicrobial therapy and steroid pulse therapy, and he discharged from ICU on day 41. +Thereafter, an additional debridement for the anterior thoracic region on day 59, STSG for anterior neck, shoulder, and thoracic (from lower abdomen skin) on day 73, and STSG for lateral neck (from posterior aspect of both thighs) on day 87 were performed under general anesthesia .

Incisional biopsy from the lesion was reported as squamous cell carcinoma of the vagina. +She had primary vaginal cancer staged as FIGO stage II, and definitive CRT was planned . External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) was given in 28 fractions of 1.8 Gy via intensity-modulated RT (IMRT) technique, with concurrent 6 cycles of 40 mg/m2 weekly cisplatin . The primary clinical target volume (CTV) included gross tumor volume (GTV), which was expanded by 1-2 cm margin, entire length of the vagina, and paravaginal tissue. The lymphatic CTV contained the external iliac, internal iliac, presacral, obturator, and inguinal lymph node regions. The CTV was expanded by 1 cm to form planning target volume (PTV). Bladder, rectum, sigmoid colon, and bowel were delineated as organs at risks (OARs). Before EBRT, silicone ring pessary without central support diaphragm (size 3, 2.50” 64 mm) was placed into the vagina to help reposition and support the prolapsed vagina, to immobilize the radiation field, and to reduce prolapse symptoms . The pessary was left in place until EBRT was completed. At the end of the EBRT, the pessary was removed. Vaginal examination revealed a complete response . After clinical confirmation of complete response, high-dose-rate (HDR) CT-guided vaginal cuff BT was performed, with a dose of 26 Gy in 4 fractions prescribed to the full thickness of the vaginal wall . Total (EBRT + BT) biologically equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions (EQD2) were calculated with α/β = 10 Gy for tumor and α/β = 3 Gy for late-responding tissues using the linear quadratic model .

His electrolyte and coagulation profiles were within normal ranges. +As the boy’s history and physical examination referred to acute appendicitis, ultrasound was performed. Ultrasonography showed a well-defined, hypoechogenic solid mass measuring 6 × 2 cm in the right iliac fossa . Other abdominal structures, including the appendix, liver, and kidneys, were normal. Because of the complex nature of the lesion, computed tomography was also performed. A computed tomographic scan showed a solid mass measuring 6 × 2.4 cm in the right abdomen. The mass was in contact at one end with the ascending colon and at the other end with the small bowel . Imaging findings excluded the presence of acute appendicitis or Meckel’s diverticulum. Emergency laparoscopic exploration was performed using a 10-mm trocar placed in the umbilicus with two accessory trocars in the left and right lower quadrants (5 mm). A pediculated solid mass attached to the antimesenteric edge of the ileum and 8 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve was found. It was covered by inflammatory omentum. It appeared ischemic due to torsion at the level of the pediculated attachment to the ileum.

Left heart catheterization found progressive diffuse CAV with worsened involvement of the distal LAD, mid circumflex, first obtuse marginal, and right posterior descending artery . No discrete lesions were amenable to percutaneous intervention. In response, her immunosuppression changed to everolimus, tacrolimus, and prednisone. In November 2017, she presented with an acute gout flare, as well as volume overload.

Therefore, cornstarch feeding at night was stopped. +At 40 years of age, she presented hyperglycemia (200–260 mg/dl after feeding and dumping syndrome-like symptoms such as nausea, general fatigue, and dorsal pain). Moreover, the dumping syndrome-like symptoms worsened, resulting in poor quality of life.

The patient had visited many hospitals without symptom control, but had improved after orally taking omeprazole and anti-inflammatory agents. She did not have black stools or similar symptoms before the symptoms appeared 3 months earlier. +Physical examination showed obvious tenderness in the lower right epigastric region of the xiphoid process, and there was no rebound pain or muscle tension. Blood examination only indicated slightly elevated levels of C-reactive protein, while other tests including routine blood tests were normal. Chest X-ray and B-ultrasound indicated no obvious abnormalities, as shown in Fig. . Gastroscopy revealed obvious hyperemia and edema in the anterior wall of the duodenal bulb, with superficial white pus coating on the surface, and semicircular swelling of the mucous membrane into the cavity, as shown in Fig. . +A duodenal bulbous bulge with bulbous inflammation (possibly due to external pressure on the gall bladder abscess) and/or duodenal bulb ulcer were first considered to be responsible for the discomfort. Cefazoxime sodium was intravenously administered at 2 g and Q12h. Omeprazole was orally administered at 40 mg and Q12h. However, the effect of the anti-ulcer therapy was unremarkable as the symptoms were not significantly relieved and epigastric pain was still present. Additionally, the paroxysmal spasmolysis could not be controlled by intramuscular injection of anisodamine. +Computed tomography (CT) was further performed, and the results suggested the gallbladder was slightly larger, the gastric cavity filling was poor, and the gastric antrum was thickened. After careful examination of the film, we found a streaky high-density shadow (approximately 3 cm in length) on the posterior wall of the gastric antrum extending outside the wall, as shown in Fig. . The possibility of FBs accompanied by perforation was then considered. Further abdominal X-ray also showed a dense shadow in the duodenal bulb with a length of about 2.7 cm, as shown in Fig. . Endoscopic ultrasonography showed that the anterior wall of the duodenal bulb obviously protruded into the cavity. A superficial ulcer was observed on the anterior wall and white moss was observed on the uplift. Hyperechoic space with a cross-section of approximately 0.1 × 0.1 cm was found in the deep submucosal layer of the local stomach, accompanied by an acoustic shadow in the rear as shown in Fig. , which led to the consideration of fishbone as the FB. Further questioning of the patient confirmed that she had a history of eating fish soup before she developed abdominal pain. +Abdominal CT examination suggested abscessus and thus, the possibility of perforation was not excluded. It is more difficult to find lesions under laparoscopy and endoscopic treatment is associated with higher risks when perforation is suspected, thus the patient was recommended for exploratory laparotomy. However, the patient and her family refused open surgery and requested endoscopic investigation. However, certain difficulties and complications may arise with endoscopic treatment: 1) the FB stump may not be visible under the endoscope; 2) injury to the adjacent liver and pancreas can occur; 3) after removing the FB, the closed perforation cannot be treated under the endoscope; 4) massive upper gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation can occur during or after surgery. If any of the above conditions occurs, emergency surgery is required. During the operation, we attempted to find the end of the fishbone on the bulges of the ball using FB forceps (MTN-4GF-23, Nanjing minimally invasive), as the tail end could be seen faintly in the abscess. FB forceps were used to clamp the proximal end and a fishbone-like FB with a length of 5.5 cm was pulled out. The ulcer slightly oozed blood and two thrombins were sprayed to stop the bleeding. Fasting as well as acid inhibition and anti-infection medication were prescribed for the patient after surgery. +After treatment, the patient’s abdominal pain disappeared.

Quantities were determined by counting the remaining pills in the blister packaging. Upon arrival, the patient was somnolent but able to open her eyes on request (E3M6V5). Vital signs showed a blood pressure of 146/57 mmHg, a regular heart rate of 55/min with strong peripheral pulsations, a respiratory rate of 16/min, oxygen saturation levels varying between 95 and 100% at room air, and a body temperature of 36.2 °C. Her husband suggested that the pills must have been ingested 3 to 8 h prior to hospital admission. Electrocardiography (ECG) showed a sinus rhythm of 61 beats per minute with a prolonged corrected QT interval (QTc) of 503 ms as shown in Fig. . During admission, all ECGs were performed using a GE MAC 5500 HD electrocardiograph. The tangent method was used in order to define the end of the T-wave in the lead with the longest QT interval.

Arterial blood gas analysis showed a base excess of − 4.9 mmol/l (pH 7.37, pCO2 4.6 kPa, pO2 12.1 kPa, HCO3− 20 mmol/l). A chest X-ray displayed no aspiration pneumonia nor other cardiopulmonary anomalies. The patient was admitted to the ICU for observation, where she received intravenous fluids along with 40 mg of pantoprazole for the prevention of peptic ulcer disease due to the substantial ingestion of naproxen. This was administered only once due to the risk of further QTc interval prolongation. Initially, our patient remained hemodynamically stable and showed improved neurological function. Twenty-two hours after hospital admission, a second ECG showed normalization of the QTc interval to 458 ms, suggesting peak serum levels of the ingested drugs had passed. After psychiatric evaluation had taken place, our patient had fallen to the floor in search of the restroom. On examination, both her muscle strength and coordination were slightly disturbed. Due to the overall severity of the intoxication and the persistence of neurological symptoms, it was decided to observe the patient for one more night at the ICU. Flumazenil was not administered since the patient was fully conscious and already in a monitored environment and due to the risk of adverse effects, especially with chronic benzodiazepine use . +That night, 36 h after admission, our patient developed recurrent short episodes of Torsades de Pointes (TdP) with intermittent loss of cardiac output, as shown in Fig. .

A transoesophageal echocardiography was performed 24 h before the procedure in order to rule out the presence of LA thrombosis. Catheter ablation was performed under general anaesthesia with orotracheal intubation. Induction of anaesthesia was obtained with propofol 2 mg/Kg, fentanyl 100 mcg, and rocuronium 1 mg/Kg, and it was completely regular. General anaesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane 1.2–1.4% in a 1:1 oxygen:air combination. Analgesia was maintained with remifentanil infusion 0.03–0.08 mcg/Kg/min. A five Fr pig-tail catheter was placed at the aortic valvular plane through the right common femoral artery and a decapolar steerable diagnostic catheter was placed in the coronary sinus through the right common femoral vein. Then a fluoroscopy-guided transseptal puncture was performed without complications (SL0™ Swartz sheath, Abbott; BRK™ transseptal needle, Abbott). An electroanatomical three-dimensional map (EnSite NavX, Abbott) of the LA was obtained using a high-density mapping catheter (Advisor™ HD Grid Mapping Catheter, Sensor Enabled™ (SE), Abbott). PVI with RF energy (standard energy, 30–35 W) was started with the use of a 4 mm tip bidirectional irrigated catheter (FlexAbility Ablation Catheter, Abbott). The activating clotting time was maintained between 250 and 350 s through unfractionated heparin iv infusion at standard dose. At the time of RF initiation, the patient vital signs were completely normal. The procedure was initiated targeting the left superior pulmonary vein (LSPV). After a few seconds, during the encircling of the LSPV and RF delivery at the site of posterior left pulmonary venous carina, the patient developed a reproducible asystolic reflex associated with hypotension, suggesting GP irritation with subsequent vagal activation . RF delivery was stopped for a few seconds and then resumed after recovery of electrical activity. About 2 min after the first RF delivery, a prominent and diffuse ST-segment elevation was noted and the patient developed a transient complete atrioventricular block with a junctional escape rhythm requiring temporary right ventricular pacing and i.v. administration of atropine 0.5 mg. Bedside TTE was performed in order to rule out pericardial involvement or mechanical complications and showed a mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) without clear regional wall motion abnormalities in the absence of pericardial effusion. An invasive coronary angiography (ICA) was immediately performed. Severe multivessel CAS in the absence of significant atherosclerotic disease or air embolism was detected . CAS resolution and subsequent flow normalization were obtained after intracoronary administration of nitroglycerin . The ST-segment promptly returned to isoelectric line . Repeated bedside TTE performed after spasm regression showed recovered LVEF and confirmed the absence of pericardial effusion. After complete resolution and stabilization of the patient clinical parameters, the procedure was resumed and PVI with encircling and adjunctive LA lesion lines (mitral isthmus and roof line) were completed without further complications . After the procedure, myocardial injury markers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I) resulted slightly elevated with a ‘rise and fall’ pattern (peak 1060 ng/L, normal range <14 ng/L). After 48 h of clinical monitoring, the patient was discharged with a non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (verapamil, 40 mg tid) therapy. At 30 days, 3 and 6 months follow-up the patient was in sinus rhythm without left ventricular wall motion abnormalities. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_687_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_687_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..cd0fc5cc2be641627bbb822788cca455a82a3b37 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_687_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 66-year-old hospitalized male who complained of dizziness. +The patient developed dizziness, nausea, and vomiting 4 d prior.

In consideration of the possible ARN diagnosis, the patient was started on systemic antiviral (250 mg/day intravenous acyclovir for 3 days), anti-inflammatory (20 mg/day oral prednisolone for 3 days), and anti-coagulant (100 mg/day biaspirin for 3 days) therapies immediately following surgery with cooperation with the internal medicine department. +PCR testing from vitreous sample was negative for toxoplasma, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus, bacteria, and fungi. However, the vitreous sample did contain scattered, undifferentiated malignant cells . Further immunohistochemical examination was not performed due to the small sample size. Vitreous specimen findings matched those of the primary esophageal tumor biopsy . Given the presence of a central nervous system metastasis, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head was performed. No evidence of further central nervous system malignancies was found. However repeat PET–CT revealed widespread systemic metastases. +Ultra-wide view fundus imaging revealed multifocal white intraretinal lesions in the macula and periphery two months after surgery . Optical coherence tomography (OCT) through these white opacities displayed hyper-reflective inner retinal lesions with no choroidal involvement, suggestive of retinal metastasis . Visual acuity was 20/200 OD and the retina remained attached under the silicone oil. No further intervention was provided by our department due to the poor prognosis. The patient was maintained on palliative care and passed away three month later due to multiple organ failure, secondary to his malignancy. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_807_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_807_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d7c067b2eda4660a6ca5e2bc858bf554ab4de19c --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_807_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 75-year-old woman with a 1-week history of diplopia was referred to the ophthalmology clinic from the medical ward, where she was being treated for atypical pneumonia.

Five months and three months before the initial visit, she had undergone arthroscopic synovectomy and bursectomy in other hospital for chronic bursitis , but no causative organism was revealed from the intraoperative tissue cultures. No limitation of range of motion or fever was observed at the initial presentation but the patient had intermittent pain with walking. Her laboratory tests showed no evidence of prominent infection, as white blood cell (WBC) count of 3700 /μL, Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) of 15 mm/hr., C-reactive protein (CRP) of < 0.3 mg/dL. No suspicious radiolucent lesion was observed on plain radiograph of her right ankle. From her magnetic resonance image (MRI), high signal intensity in Proton density fat suppression images and T1-weighted double fat suppression images was found on subcutaneous tissue over lateral malleolus with intra-articular fluid effusion, synovial hypertrophy and localized bone edema around the ankle joint. Chronic bursitis with sinus tract and nonspecific synovitis of ankle were diagnosed, with suggestion of differential diagnosis of inflammatory arthritis, septic arthritis, early tuberculous arthritis and reactive synovitis due to ankle instability. +Open bursectomy and sinus tract excision were performed, followed by 1st generation cephalosporin administration after the surgery. (Cefazedone 1 g BID [bis in die]) Bone biopsy was obtained from discolored distal fibular tip, which showed chronic inflammation and degeneration. Gram positive rods were identified in 1 out of 3 bacterial culture samples, one tissue culture sample and two swab cultures, and was interpreted as contamination as only one of the two swab samples showed gram positive bacilli, which seemed to be normal skin flora or contamination from surrounding environment according to the laboratory medicine department of the institution. Tuberculosis-polymerase chain reaction (TB-PCR) test was negative. The patient showed no fever postoperatively and CRP of < 0.3 mg/dL. 1st generation cephalosporin was administered intravenously until 2 weeks after the surgery and changed to oral agent for 1 more week. The patient was followed until 22 weeks postoperatively without any symptoms or signs of recurrence. +The patient revisited the clinic two years later from the surgery for recurred painful swelling and pus drainage. Plain radiograph, computed tomography (CT) and MRI were taken and multiple huge cystic abscess surrounded by sclerotic rim and osteomyelitis of talus and medial malleolus were identified. Lateral malleolar bursectomy, debridement and drainage of talus abscess were done and intraoperative frozen biopsy obtained from periarticular soft tissue and bursae showed low grade infectious soft tissue. Permanent tissue biopsy was interpreted as chronic osteomyelitis with fibrinoid exudate, fibrosis and necrosis with abscess and foreign body reaction. Anti-nuclear antibody, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody and rheumatoid factor were tested to exclude autoimmune disease and other inflammatory arthritis, which turned out to be negative for all three markers. Bacterial culture, acid fast bacteria stain, TB-PCR, potassium hydroxide (KOH) mount and fungal culture were obtained and C. krusei was identified 1 out of 2 fungal culture samples. Antifungal drug sensitivity and resistance test were requested and the pathogen confirmed to be sensitive to amphotericin B, micafungin and voriconazole, intermediate for caspofungin, and resistant to fluconazole and flucytosine. Even though in vitro susceptibility against caspofungin was intermediate, caspofungin was recommended by the infectious disease specialist of the hospital according to the sensitivity test result, considering the potential toxicity of amphotericin B to which the pathogen was more susceptible. After two weeks of intravenous caspofungin 50 mg QD [quaque die] administration, the patient was discharged with patellar tendon bearing cast and oral voriconazole 200 mg BID for 6-month period, which was tolerable with only minor adverse effects like dry mouth, reported by the patient. The patient had regular liver function tests to monitor hepatotoxicity of voriconazole during antifungal administration at local clinic, all of which were within normal limits according to the patient. Her last outpatient clinic visit after one year and four months from the last surgery was uneventful with no clinical symptom recurrence. Plain radiographs and CT scan showed stationary cystic lesions of talus without evident talar roof collapse, and when compared to the radiographic studies of 10 months after the last surgery , slightly thickened cortical lining of the talar cysts was observed. Possibility of bone graft to the void was explained to the patient for prevention of potential talar collapse, but she refused to undergo another surgery as she had no clinical symptoms or functional impairments. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_883_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_883_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..b9c8881142854e94179cc365e5b63684c3710fd8 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_883_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +A 20-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital on July 9, 2021, for evaluation of recurring abdominal pain, diarrhea, and black stools, which had been persisting for 6 years. +The patient received treatment at a local hospital 6 years back for seven days of unexplained abdominal pain. On examination, the peritoneal stimulation sign was positive. Abdominal X-ray at the time revealed a gas shadow located below the diaphragm. On diagnostic abdominal puncture, 5 mL of purulent fluid was withdrawn, thereby raising the suspicion of perforation in the digestive tract. Laparotomy performed for exploration revealed diffuse peritonitis, acute gangrenous appendicitis with perforation, adhesive intestinal obstruction, and pelvic abscess. Appendectomy, intestinal adhesiolysis, and pelvic abscess removal surgery were performed during the procedure (July 2, 2015). Following surgery, the patient’s condition improved and he was discharged. However, one year after discharge, the patient stared experiencing recurrent abdominal pain and dark red loose stools, with positive test results for fecal occult blood and mild to moderate anemia. Colonoscopy had been performed several times before and showed the presence of intestinal ulcers and bleeding at other hospitals. In light of the colonoscopy findings, a clinical diagnosis of IBD was made. Oral treatment with mesalazine was administered at a local hospital, at a dose of 2 tablets four times a day for a total of 6 weeks. However, there was no improvement in the symptoms of rectal bleeding. Subsequently, oral treatment with azathioprine was added, at a dose of 50 mg once a day for a total of 2 months. Even with this treatment, the symptoms of rectal bleeding did not improve. The Mayo score was 8 points both before and after medication (with an increase of 2-3 times per day compared to the normal bowel movements, mixed blood in the stool within less than half of the time, ulcer formation detected by endoscopy, and moderate condition). Considering its ineffectiveness, mesalazine and azathioprine treatment was discontinued. +On July 9, 2021, the patient presented with persistence and worsening of the abovementioned symptoms. The frequency of episodes of abdominal pain and black stool had increased, with approximately 30 mL of dark red loose stools about 3-4 times a day, without mucus, or pus. In addition, he reported dizziness, but did not report any nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, or constipation. The patient did not experience any loss of consciousness. Moreover, the patient did not show any signs of fever, chills, or night sweats. Subsequently, the patient sought medical attention and was hospitalized for further evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment. +The patient's medical history was the same as before, with no other surgical or traumatic history. He also denied having any history of long-term use of NSAIDs or glucocorticoids. Due to gastrointestinal bleeding, the patient received red blood cell infusion twice, without any negative reactions during the process. There was no evidence of infectious diseases, such as typhoid fever and tuberculosis, or any sexually transmitted diseases. +The individual reported a history of alcohol consumption for three years, although the amount consumed was unknown. He denied having any history of smoking or exposure to toxins; he also denied any family history of genetic diseases. +On examination, the patient had stable vital signs, a clear mind, an anemic face, and pallor of the palpebral conjunctiva, lips, and nail beds. Superficial lymph nodes were not palpable, and cardiopulmonary examination revealed no apparent positive signs; only an old longitudinal surgical scar measuring approximately 20 cm in length was noted on the abdomen. Tenderness was noted beneath the xiphoid process, but there was no rebound pain or muscle tension. No shifting dullness was detected, and bowel sounds were heard at a rate of 6 per minute. No edema was observed in either lower limb. +Routine blood tests revealed moderate anemia and a decrease in the average red blood cell volume . Other tests conducted after admission showed no abnormalities in coagulation function and blood biochemistry. No abnormal findings were obtained in laboratory tests for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody, antinuclear antibodies, immunoglobulin, lymphocyte immunochip, C-reactive protein (CRP), blood sedimentation rate, and detection of common viruses such as human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B virus, and cytomegalovirus. Analysis of the stool sample collected revealed the presence of occult blood. Fecal bacterial culture and fecal fungal culture did not show positive findings. Additionally, the 13C-urea breath test yielded a negative result. Whole-exome sequencing performed for the detection of genetic diseases led to the identification of autosomal ACVRL1 and PLA2G4A gene mutations (July 21, 2021; Figure ). +On gastroscopy performed on July 12, 2021, the esophagus appeared to have normal morphology and color, with no evident abnormalities . The distance from the cardia to the incisor was approximately 40 cm, and the dentate line was clearly visible. No abnormalities were visible in the mucosa and structure of the gastric fundus and gastric body. The gastric fundus showed a moderate amount of mucus and yellow turbidity, with a smoothly curved gastric angle. In addition, congestion and edema of the gastric antrum mucosa were noted, with no signs of ulcers or masses. The pylorus appeared to be circular and functioning properly, with smooth opening and closure. Similarly, no abnormalities were detected in the duodenal bulb and mucosa of the descending duodenum. The above findings led to the conclusion of chronic non-atrophic gastritis with bile reflux. +Colonoscopy performed on July 16, 2021 revealed that the surgical repair site between the ascending colon and the ileum was visible 55 cm from the anus (usually 60-70 cm away from the anus); the ileocecal valve and cecum were indistinguishable . There were scattered nodular protrusions, lamellar vesicle, and shallow ulcers at the site of surgical repair, as well as in the ileum. Additionally, local mucosal protrusions, ulcers, and nodular protrusions were observed near the hepatic flexure of the transverse colon. The morphology of the remaining part of the descending colon and sigmoid colon appeared normal, with regular folds, a smooth mucosal surface, and rich and clear vascular network; no abnormal secretions, erosion, ulcers, or masses were detected in these segments of the colon. Similarly, the rectal mucosa exhibited no obvious abnormalities, But a fistula in the perianal area was suspected. The colonoscopy findings raised a suspicion of CD. +Pathological examination of the appendix removed on July 2, 2015, showed acute gangrenous appendicitis, peritonitis, appendix perforation, and fecal stone incarceration within the cavity. +Histopathologic examination of a sample of intestinal mucosa obtained on July 19, 2021 revealed superficial mucosa ulceration in the ileum with abundant inflammatory exudates, formation of granulomas, infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells, and no caseous necrosis . Additionally, the superficial mucosa of the colon showed signs of acute and chronic inflammation. +Multiple routine investigations during hospitalization revealed a decrease in the levels of red blood cells, hemoglobin, and average red blood cell volume; slightly higher fibrinogen levels; and a positive fecal occult blood. Given the patient’s history of appendiceal perforation, special care was taken to remain vigilant for signs of gastrointestinal ulcers, and a careful gastroenteroscopy and pathological examination was performed, which validated the atypical intestinal lesions of CD or UC. Additionally, the patient did not exhibit symptoms such as low fever or night sweats, and did not have abnormalities in chest CT and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Moreover, enteroscopy did not show any transverse ulcers, and pathological findings did not suggest caseous necrosis. Absence of the typical symptoms and the investigative findings together rule out the possibility of tuberculosis infection. The 13C-urea breath test result was negative, which ruled out Helicobacter pylori infection. Since the patient did not have any history of taking NSAIDs or corticosteroids, drug-induced ulcers were also ruled out. Moreover, no abnormalities were detected in tests for urine cytomegalovirus deoxyribonucleic acid, fecal bacterial culture, fecal fungal culture, and common virological tests; therefore, viral, bacterial, and fungal infections were ruled out. Upon retrospective analysis of the clinical manifestations, enteroscopic and pathological findings, the diagnosis was established as IBD without typical features of CD or UC. The patient did not have extraintestinal manifestations, and tests for CRP, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody, antinuclear antibodies, immunoglobulin levels, lymphocyte immunochip showed no abnormalities. Furthermore, despite undergoing mesalazine and immune-modulating therapy with azathioprine, there was no improvement in the patient's symptoms. Thus, the early age of onset; recurrence of symptoms; atypical features of CD and UC; and lack of response to aminosalicylic acid, immunotherapy, and related symptomatic treatment raised suspicion of the potential etiopathogenetic role of genetic factors in this case. +Subsequently, whole-exome sequencing for genetic diseases was performed, which revealed mutations in the ACVRL1 and PLA2G4A genes. Mutations of both these genes are known to cause a decrease in the ability of the intestinal mucosa to resist injury and sustain repair. Kangfuxin liquid is known to have an effect of accelerating the repair of pathological tissue, shedding of necrotic tissue, and healing of ulcers and wounds. Accordingly, we modified the treatment plan and administered oral Kangfuxin liquid of 10 mL three times daily to promote the repair of the intestinal repair. The patient was discharged once his symptoms improved on initiating this treatment, and treatment was continued for 4 wk after discharge. If the patient occasionally experiences symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and black stool, oral administration of Kangfuxin liquid can alleviate the symptoms. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_888_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_888_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..63672034daec2c1c416aa815fc0e5ff9e59075e4 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_888_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 30-year-old woman with a body mass index (BMI) of 22.5 was hospitalized due to secondary amenorrhea and infertility.

She experienced amenorrhea for 6 years after giving birth, and had been treated with drugs and contraceptive rings without success. The patient could only adjust her menstrual cycle with medication. The results of basic endocrine examination showed that the serum level of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) was high. Examination in April, 2019 indicated that serum FSH was above normal, while the anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) concentration remained normal. Ultrasound scanning indicated that the uterine volume was relatively small (4.0 × 3.9 × 3.3 cm), while both ovaries were normal in size and more than 10 antral follicles were observed in both ovaries . Blood tests and genetic analysis excluded lupus erythematosus, multiglandular insufficiency, diabetes, myasthenia gravis, and chromosomal abnormalities (Fragile X syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Swyer syndrome).

During the ovarian hyperstimulation period, the follicle growth was followed by ultrasound scanning, and the serum hormone levels were determined at the same time. Unfortunately, after 15 days of stimulation, no follicles larger than 14 mm were seen, and this treatment cycle was cancelled. +Due to the failure of the first cycle and a lack of FSHR associated variants in the genetic investigation, we tested the patient’s serum for antibodies directed against FSHR via dot blot analysis, which showed strong reactivity with FSHR . Consequently, we adjusted the procedure for the second cycle. During the whole period of downregulation and controlled ovarian hyperstimulation, the patient was orally administered dexamethasone at 0.75 mg daily. The second cycle was started on July 6, 2019, at which time the patient was first given a 3.75 mg injection of triptorelin acetate for downregulation on the second day of menstruation. Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation was initiated on day 30 with daily subcutaneous injections of 375 IU of gonadotropin (Gonal F® 225 IU/d plus HMG 150 IU/d) for 3 days, which was then increased to 525 IU (Gonal F® 225 IU/d, HMG 225 IU/d and Luveris 75 IU/d) for 7 days. During the stimulation period, the patient underwent regular ultrasound follicle tracking and hormone measurements (estradiol, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone and progesterone) to monitor follicular maturation. A subcutaneous injection of hCG 10,000 IU (Livzon Pharmaceuticals, China) was administered and oocyte retrieval was scheduled 36 h later, ultrasound guided transvaginal follicular aspiration was performed under negative pressure of 110 mmHg (14.7 kPa) using a single lumen aspiration needle (Cook; William Cook Australia Pty Ltd., Australia).

Before the manifestation of symptoms patient was healthy, no prior dementia cases in patient’s family history were recorded. Two weeks after initial symptoms presentation patient was hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of Regional Hospital. Neither ophthalmologic examination nor blood test revealed any significant changes. Brain computed tomography (CT) and MRI were evaluated as normal. Although after retrospective reevaluation of MRI, slight increase in the occipital DW signal was found . EEG was performed on the 6th week since initial disease presentation did not show any specific changes. Initially, the patient was diagnosed with primary hypertension (blood pressure was 150/70 mmHg): Spironolactone 25 mg per day for arterial hypertension and Clonazepam 0,5 mg once a day for insomnia, Betahistine 3 mg three times a day were prescribed. On the sixth week after initial symptoms due to complaints of dizziness, impaired memory, insomnia, emotional lability, the possible causes were differentiated among cerebrovascular and somatoform/conversion disorder. As the symptoms progressed significantly, on the 7th week after the onset of symptoms, the patient was referred to the University Hospital. Clinical course of the disease and the major diagnostic tests are presented in Fig. . +During the hospital admission the patient complained of weakness, difficulties standing up and walking due to dizziness and visual impairment as well as difficulties concentrating during the interview. A neurological evaluation revealed vertical gaze palsy, extrapyramidal type increased right body side muscle tonus, involuntary stereotypical movements (purposeless raising and lowering of the left hand), weaker reflexes on the left side and ataxic gait. Arterial blood pressure was 160/90 mmHg. Ophthalmologic examination revealed severely impaired vision, a disability to distinguish between light and darkness, without any congestive changes in the retina. The evaluation of mental state revealed typical symptoms of organic brain disease: disorientation in time, slower thought processing, concentration difficulties and disturbed short-term memory. Mini-Mental State Examination score 20/30 revealed dementia with moderate cognitive decline, two in date and two points in place orientation were missed, three in recall, two in attention and calculation, one in repetition. Due to episodic anxiety, agitation and fearful gaze, visual hallucinations were suspected. Physical examination of other systems did not reveal any significant abnormalities. +During the next two weeks blood tests were carried out to rule out infectious, endocrine and rheumatologic diseases, metabolic conditions and secondary autoimmune central nervous system vasculitis since they are common causes of dementia; genetic testing, urine analysis and a liver biopsy were performed in search for Wilson’s disease, but all the tests were negative. Standard examination of CSF did not reveal significant deviations from the normal range. Despite antihypertensive treatment, arterial blood pressure was ranging between 160/100 and 140/85 mmHg. +EEGs performed on the 10th and 14th weeks after the onset of symptoms showed non-specific diffuse slowing activity with rhythmic delta activity in frontal brain regions (FIRDA), predominantly in the left side. Only at the 18th week EEG showed periodic (repeated every 1 s) sharp wave complexes (PSWC) in frontal regions . +The MRI, done on the 9th week showed in T2W increased signal intensity (SI) zones in cortical gray and subcortical white matter, especially on the right side without restriction in DWI sequence, in the parietal-occipital area supplied by the posterior cerebral artery, leading to the conclusion of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES). The typical imaging finding is vasogenic oedema in the subcortical white matter of the parietal and occipital lobes . As an experience with PRES grows, atypical presentations of PRES are being increasingly described: the cases with atypical vasogenic oedema patterns of distribution, such as frontal lobe, cerebellum, basal ganglia or brain stem involvement [–]. This non-specific radiological pattern in our case also raised a new diagnostic challenge. Normalization of blood pressure due to antihypertensive treatment and other symptomatic treatment did not improve neurologic symptoms. During the period of the next two weeks all possible causes (vascular, ictal, infectious) of PRES were ruled out . A diagnosis of CJD was suspected the first time. +In MRI, repeated after four weeks, on the 13th week symmetrical lesions in the basal ganglia (head of nucleus caudatus, putamen) were found. The previous lesions in the cortical/subcortical area were absorbed. The lesions found in the basal ganglia led us to suspect CJD or extrapontine myelinolysis [, ]. +Within 14th week of the disease onset and the symptomatic treatment, the patient’s condition significantly deteriorated. Severe psychomotor retardation with hyper tonus of neck and arms flexor muscles, jerky myoclonic movements, repeated episodes of agitation and severe insomnia were observed. Condition progressed to akinetic mutism with severe cognitive impairment. The blood pressure reversed into hypotensive state. There was no possibility in Lithuania to test the 14–3–3 protein, most widely used CSF biomarker for CJD and one of the WHO criteria, for probable CJD. Taken into account a rapidly progressive dementia, clinical manifestation of myoclonus, visual changes, ataxia, muscle hyper tonus, akinetic mutism, symmetrical MRI findings of basal ganglia, on the 14th week of the disease the decision to take brain biopsy was made. +The brain tissue biopsy from occipital brain lobe and head of caudate nucleus was performed. Histological evaluation was performed in the Division of Neuropathology of the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London: the abnormal prion protein deposits (detected with antibodies ICSM35, KG9 and 12 F10) were seen in all the grey matter areas . No specific features in small biopsy samples were found to suggest iatrogenic or inherited forms of prion disease. Patient had not received any past treatment with human cadaver derived growth hormone, undergone neurosurgery with human cadaver derived dural graft or scleral transplant, patient had not received blood transfusion, which suggests a possible sporadic case of CJD. The neuropil in the grey matter of caudate nucleus showed mild but widespread micro-vacuolar degeneration. In the neuropil of occipital cortex mild micro-vacuolar degeneration is patchy. Immunostaining for the abnormal prion protein revealed diffuse strong synaptic labelling in all the grey matter regions. In the white matter there are freaquent granular deposits but no convincing filamentous labelling. Histopathological and immuno-histochemical findings of prion protein (scrapie) (PrPSc) and summarizing all the data, we confirmed prion disease, compatible with sCJD. The patient eventually died 13 months after disease onset.

CT and MRI examinations revealed the presence of a right cerebellar mass with mild enhancement and of a right temporal mass with moderate enhancement . The tumors were hypointensive in T1-weighted MRI scans and hyperintensive in T2-weighted MRI scans. CT examination revealed that both tumors were hyperdense. Following these examinations, the patient was referred to our hospital. +During surgery, the two tumors were observed to have similar appearances. Both tumors were reddish-colored and soft, had a moderate blood supply, and were easy to suction. The postsurgical pathology reports stated that the tumors were a DMB (cerebellar mass) and PNET (temporal mass) . +Due to the suspicion that the boy had GS, he was evaluated for this condition. The circumference of his head was 48 cm. Physical examination revealed the presence of multiple café-au-lait spots . Plain film X-ray imaging demonstrated the presence of a bifid rib and a jaw cyst . The PTCH1 gene test was negative. We conducted a molecular classification of the cerebellar tumor using the real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and the NanoString method and discovered that the DMB was a SHH subtype tumor. Based on two major and one minor criteria for GS (desmoplastic MB, bifid rib, and jaw cyst, respectively), an unambiguous diagnosis of GS was made. +After the patient was discharged, his parents refused to allow him to receive chemotherapy, which is a treatment that must be covered by out-of-pocket payments in China, due to their financial difficulties. The patient instead underwent 30.6-Gy irradiation of the entire brain and the spinal axis and 54-Gy irradiation of the posterior fossa. At follow-up, an MRI examination showed no tumor recurrence. Twenty-seven months after receiving radiotherapy, the patient experienced chest pain and had a fever. CT examinations revealed the presence of a mediastinal mass and chest effusion . Analysis of a biopsy performed at another hospital demonstrated that the mass was T cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma . The patient’s parent refused treatment because of financial difficulties, and the boy died 1 month later. +DMB and medulloblastoma with extensive nodularity (MBEN) are closely associated with GS. The development of DMB and MBEN, which are generally the first tumoral manifestations in patients with GS, is thought to be the major criterion for the diagnosis . The prevalence of MB in GS patients in early childhood is difficult to estimate. The incidence of GS in MB patients was reported to be 1–2 %, and 3–5 % of GS patients develop medulloblastoma, generally within the first 2 years of life . In a retrospective investigation, 5 of 82 medulloblastoma patients were diagnosed with GS . In Amlashi’s cohort of 76 MB patients, the incidence of GS among the entire cohort was 4 %, the incidence of GS in patients younger than 5 years old was 10.7 %, and the incidence of GS in patients younger than 2 years old was 25 % . In a Japanese survey, 3.3 % of 157 GS patients had MB . +To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a concurrent infratentorial medulloblastoma and a supratentorial PNET in a GS patient. On cerebrospinal axis MRI examination, there were no signs of CSF seeding; two images appeared different under microscope examination, which excluded the occurrence of tumor metastasis. The molecular classification of the DMB as a SHH subtype tumor was also consistent with the diagnosis of GS. Our patient could have been diagnosed with GS based on the presence of DMB, a PNET, a jaw cyst, a bifid rib, and multiple café-au-lait spots, as well as the classification of the DMB as a SHH subtype tumor. The occurrence of multiple café-au-lait spots is associated with many hereditary disease, including neurofibromatosis type 1, McCune-Albright syndrome, Cowden syndrome, and LEOPARD syndrome . This is the fourth case report of multiple café-au-lait spots in a GS patient [, ]. Because the clinical diagnostic criteria for GS are continually changing, we propose that the presence of café-au-lait spots in young DMB patients should be considered a “trigger” for ordering a diagnostic evaluation and a molecular blood test for GS. +GS patients are at a high risk of developing multiple BCCs and other radiation-induced tumors, such as meningioma, ependymoma, and fibrosarcoma, in irradiated areas. To date, this is the first report of the development of post-treatment non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in a GS patient. The hedgehog pathway regulates intrathymic T cell development. Aberrant activation of the hedgehog pathway is associated with the pathogenesis of malignant lymphoma . Irradiation induces DNA damage and genomic instability in circulating and thymic lymphocytes, which results in apoptosis, abnormal DNA methylation, and changes in RNA expression [, ]. Our patient developed mediastinal lymphoma, which was unequivocally diagnosed as a radiation-induced tumor. Interestingly, we found one report of a radiation-induced PNET that developed following treatment for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma . These findings may facilitate elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis in GS patients. +Early and prompt diagnosis is important in patients suspected to have GS, as chemotherapy is the first-line treatment for tumors in GS patients. The desmoplastic variant of MB and MBEN in GS generally occur in children who are 2 years of age or younger. Most of the main criteria for GS, such as intracranial calcification, jaw cysts, and BCC, do not appear until the second decade of life, which makes early diagnosis of GS in very young patients difficult . Medulloblastoma patients with GS generally have a promising survival rate due to recent advancements made in chemotherapy . The detection rate of a mutated PTCH 1 gene is only 50–85 % , which makes early diagnosis more difficult. Amlashi et al. have even suggested avoiding radiotherapy in DMB patients who are less than 5 years old . +The overexpression of the members of the canonical hedgehog signaling pathway plays an important role in tumorigenesis in GS patients. In the majority of GS patients, the loss of function of PTCH1 has been found, which causes the reduction of the inhibition of the smoothened (SMO) oncogene and the subsequent aberrant activation of the glioma-associated oncogene homolog (GLI) family members. It is possible that SMO inhibitors, such as vismodegib, may serve as new therapeutics for the treatment of tumors in GS patients. Vismodegib has proven to be effective in the treatment of GS-related BCC and keratocystic odontogenic tumors [, ]. Robinson et al. reported that vismodegib exhibited activity against adult recurrent or refractory SHH-MB . However, the response to SMO inhibitors of medulloblastoma patients was variable and transient, and this drug was most effective in treating tumors with upstream activating aberrations in the SHH pathway. The existence of a PTCH1 mutation was correlated with a positive response to the drug, and aberrations in GIL2 and SUFU were found in the nonresponders . +The lack of efficacy of SMO inhibitors and the acquired resistance to these inhibitors in medulloblastoma patients argues for the use of GLI-specific inhibitors. GLI1 is the most significant member of the hedgehog pathway and plays a role in promoting carcinogenesis. Several studies have shown that aberrant GLI1 expression occurred independently from the signaling of the canonical HH pathway through PTCH and SMO [, ] and was responsible for the development of radioresistance and chemoresistance in tumors . The aberrant expression of GLI1 was closely linked to the activity of several non-canonical signaling pathways, such as the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) pathway, the avian myelocytomatosis virus oncogene cellular homolog (C-MYC) pathway, the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) pathway, the wingless-type MMTV integration site family (WNT) pathway, and the β-catenin pathway. Together, these data suggest that administering specific inhibitors of the final step in the hedgehog pathway may be the most effective treatment option and the ideal approach to use in future studies. Currently, there are several agents (HPT, GANT58, GANT61, and arsenic trioxide) that are known to inhibit the transcriptional activity of GLI [, ]. Although GLI1-specific inhibitors are still in the preclinical stage of testing, studies in which combinations of GLI1 inhibitors and chemotherapeutic agents were used to treat other types of tumors have been conducted . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_935_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_935_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..88dbb765aa4da80b6261f96bd6862c88d46ac086 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_935_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 40-year-old premenopausal nulligravida woman presented with vaginal bleeding in January 2020.

A CT scan of her neck was ordered, which revealed a submental abscess extending into the submandibular space. Her skin was incised and the underlying abscess was drained. +Our patient’s fever persisted, and as the central venous catheter was still in situ it was seen as the only possible remaining cause of infection. The catheter was surgically removed without any problems, three and a half years after placement. Cultures of the catheter tip were negative, however her fever persisted and she still showed signs of ongoing infection. This inflammatory response, possibly caused by immune reconstitution, was treated with colchicine and Indomethacin. Her fever subsided and the colchicine and Indomethacin were subsequently stopped, even though her C-reactive protein level remained high (169 mg/L). Three months after removal of the indwelling central venous catheter, she underwent a stem cell transplantation. +During stem cell transplantation, clinical suspicion arose for deep venous thrombosis of her left arm. A CT scan revealed a hyperdense structure in her left innominate vein, with thrombosis . After a conferral with the radiologist and clinicians, it was concluded that this hyperdense lesion was a foreign body, most likely the tip of the central venous catheter which had previously been (incompletely) removed. However, on conventional chest radiographs no foreign body was visible. Due to this inconsistency, three-dimensional reconstructions were done; it became clear that this ‘hyperdense line’ was of variable density, had an irregular surface and the continuity was interrupted at certain points . It was now concluded that these hyperdense structures were calcifications that had developed after line removal in an old (infected) thrombus in her left innominate vein, which resembled a foreign body. She was treated with low molecular weight heparin and antibiotics, after which her fever subsided. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_955_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_955_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..c516b326d840acf6a04176b6848301883f682d0b --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_955_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 75-year-old man was admitted for the treatment of an asymptomatic left CIA aneurysm.

She also complained of pelvic heaviness combined with a gastrointestinal bloating sensation that required the daily intake of antiflatulent medication, which was not helpful in soothing the complaint. She had a past medical history of primary infertility for 20 years. She also had an abdominal myomectomy through a low-transverse abdominal incision 17 years earlier. A clinical examination revealed a huge pelvi-abdominal mass extending up to the level of her xiphisternum.
