Physical exam demonstrated tachycardia with borderline hypotension, without evidence of new murmurs on initial auscultation. Her medical history was notable for atrial tachycardia (AT) during two previous pregnancies managed with metoprolol and flecainide, though ultimately requiring induction of labour due to impending foetal compromise at 34 weeks. She underwent two failed catheter ablation procedures at outside institutions several months after delivery of her second child; however, the arrhythmia was not inducible during the first study, and the second was aborted prior to ablation due to haemopericardium requiring emergent pericardiocentesis. An implantable loop recorder (ILR) was placed at that time. The patient was reluctant to undergo another ablation and was treated with sotalol 40 mg twice a day by her primary cardiologist. During her third pregnancy, higher doses were not prescribed due to a low baseline blood pressure. This admission was prompted by chest palpitations and dizziness associated with an SVT at 160 beats per minute while on her home maintenance dose of sotalol. +Her blood work-up on index hospitalization did not demonstrate any electrolyte or thyroid abnormalities to potentially explain her arrhythmia exacerbation. Electrocardiogram revealed a narrow complex, long R to P wave interval tachycardia with ventricular rates of 162 bpm, and QTc 408 ms . Transthoracic echocardiogram showed grossly normal systolic ventricular function without any evidence of valvular pathology. +Intravenous boluses of metoprolol, adenosine, and diltiazem were administered without conversion to sinus rhythm; however, transient atrioventricular block was observed without affecting the atrial rate, consistent with the previous suspected diagnosis of AT. Sotalol was discontinued and she was switched to oral flecainide acetate and metoprolol tartrate, with the doses up titrated to 100 mg BID, respectively. Despite escalation of medical therapy, she continued to have multiple breakthrough episodes with concomitant palpitations, requiring diltiazem infusion at 10 mg/min. Her course was further complicated by worsening hypotension and risk of foetal bradycardia, requiring admission to the coronary care unit for vasopressor support with intravenous phenylephrine and foetal monitoring. +After coordinated discussions with electrophysiology and maternal foetal medicine, a decision was made to undergo a fluoroscopic-free catheter ablation with electroanatomic mapping to minimize radiation exposure. Due to the patient’s anxiety, the procedure required general anaesthesia and continuous peri-operative foetal heart rate monitoring was performed under the supervision of maternal foetal medicine. Despite aggressive stimulation with quadruple stimuli and isoproterenol infusion, the procedure was unsuccessful at inducing the culprit clinical AT. A right atrial flutter was reproducibly induced and successfully ablated. +Empiric isolation of the pulmonary veins (PVs) was considered, but not pursued for several reasons. The lack of inducibility precluded accurate mapping of the site of origin, with no well-defined endpoint for ablation. Empiric PV isolation would require at least 4 weeks of post-ablation oral anticoagulation which could cause more harm during pregnancy, particularly if the site of origin was outside the PVs. Unfortunately, the AT recurred 2 h after the procedure, and the decision was made to up-titrate pharmacological therapy, with a combination of sotalol 120 mg and flecainide 100 mg twice daily. This suppressed the arrhythmia, and she was monitored for an additional 72 h as an in-patient with an acceptable QTc of 487 ms and sinus rate , following which she was discharged. She returned to the emergency department 6 weeks later at 31 weeks’ gestation with another episode of symptomatic AT, shortly followed by a new onset of abruptio placentae, requiring an emergent, yet successful caesarean section. +Four days postpartum, she continued to have intermittent, non-sustained episodes of AT. The procedural bleeding risks and post-ablation anticoagulation were discussed with obstetrics who deemed her to be of acceptable risk for initiation of oral anticoagulation. She underwent a repeat fluoroscopy-free electrophysiology study and ablation under general anaesthesia. This time, burst pacing from the coronary sinus at 300–400 ms on isoproterenol induced the left AT which matched her clinical arrhythmia. Based on high density mapping with a PENTARAY® catheter (Biosense Webster Irvine, CA), triggered activity was found primarily in the left superior PV: however, was also present in the right superior and left inferior PVs. She therefore underwent isolation of all four PVs with non-inducibility of any arrhythmia post ablation with and without isoproterenol infusion . Twenty-four months post-ablation, she has been symptom free and has had no SVT on the ILR. Both she and the baby are healthy with no complications from either the pharmacotherapy or ablation procedures. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1150_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1150_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f47f257460d50b17305390f6f8511aa8190a8f15 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1150_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +We present a case report of a 78-year-old white man with alcoholic cirrhosis and multifocal HCC with ascites and portosystemic encephalopathy.

The subject reported a history of four previous concussions, three of which were sport-related, but otherwise had no co-morbidities or significant past medical history. Only minor residual symptoms from his previous concussions were reported that all gradually resolved. The subject had constant, persistent symptoms since the injury that impaired his abilities in school as well as his social life and had restricted athletic or recreational activities, reducing his overall quality of life. The subject visited his primary physician a few weeks prior to evaluation; his cervical spine was cleared via radiographs, and he was referred to a metropolitan outpatient physical therapy clinic. +The subject was given the Rivermead Post-Concussion Questionnaire (RPQ) to assess symptomology. The RPQ is a subjective, self-report measure that encompasses 16 items, each of which is scored from 0-4 in increasing severity, assessing separate cognitive, emotional, and somatic physical factors. The RPQ demonstrates high test-retest and inter-rater reliability for both total score and individual items via spearman rank correlation coefficients (r = 0.91, r = 0.87 respectively). The subject’s chief reported symptoms during the initial evaluation were neck pain and stiffness, bilateral radicular symptoms that were worse in the left shoulder and upper extremity, lightheadedness, nausea, dizziness, blurred vision and diplopia, sensitivity to light, impaired balance, slurred speech, trouble sleeping, fatigue, slower thinking, and frustration. The subject’s primary complaint was his headache symptoms, which the subject reported were brought on by reading, scanning, driving, or cervical movements. The subject also reported a period of gradual worsening during the weeks and months following his injury. The subject’s goals for physical therapy were to reduce the severity of symptoms experienced since the injury, primarily concerning his headache, fatigue, and neck pain symptomology, as he reported these symptoms have impacted his abilities as a college student and decreased his participation in his social life. +The subject described in this case report provided informed consent for the study and was informed that the data collected would be used for publication. This study has been approved by the Mercer University Institutional Review Board and Office of Research Compliance. The primary author providing patient care and clinical decision making was a student physical therapist at the time of subject interaction and was supervised by a licensed physical therapist. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1233_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1233_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..6728504b93a6bf379b0fb480190fca02c28e3378 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1233_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +On January 31, 2015, a 43-year-old Asian man with a 3-year history of progressively invasive PC presented with pain in his right eye.

Whenever restenosis was diagnosed, the implementation of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was repeated. Taking this history into consideration, we decided to perform a left ITA (LITA)-LAD bypass and a right ITA (RITA) diagonal branch bypass. The ITAs were mobilized as skeletonized grafts. We routinely used nicorandil (4 mg/h) and diltiazem (4 mg/h) during CABG operation for the prevention of vasospasm. +At first, we performed RITA diagonal bypass. Subsequently, we performed anastomosis of LITA-LAD bypass. After CABG, the patient had stable circulation (BP 126/54 mmHg, HR 62 bpm) without changes in ST segment as monitored by electrocardiogram. When we examined blood flow of the RITA diagonal bypass, transit time flow measurement revealed reasonable blood flow (flow rate 20 mL/min, pulsative index 3.4, diastolic flow of 82%). On the other hand, the LITA graft showed comparatively poorer blood flow (flow rate 15 mL/min, pulsative index 2.1, diastolic flow 74%) than the RITA graft. Flow competition between the RITA and LITA was unlikely to occur considering the location of the stenotic lesion. In addition, taking into the consideration the perfused region of the LAD and the severe stenosis in the stent, the graft blood flow was too low and technical anastomotic stenosis was suspected. We re-anastomosed the LITA-LAD bypass. However, even after re-anastomosis of LITA-LAD bypass, transit time flow measurement revealed worsening of graft flow compared to before (LITA-LAD: flow rate 7 mL/min, pulsatile index 4.8, diastolic flow 68%; RITA diagonal: flow rate 11 mL/min, pulsatile index 5.6, diastolic flow 76%).

The patient reported several-month right upper quadrant pain and 4-kg weight loss over the past year. There was no laboratory sign of obstructive jaundice at the day of admission. Preoperative CT and MR scan of the liver was performed, and the patient was diagnosed with a tumor in the gallbladder area with a relatively massive infiltration of the S5 and S6 liver segments and extensive regions of necrosis. Given the potentially resectable lesion according to preoperative imaging, exploratory laparotomy was indicated to attempt radical resection. During the exploration, a voluminous tumor was found attached to the peritoneum. Intraoperative ultrasound was performed and revealed a tumor originating from the gallbladder bed area and reaching up to the area of the hepatic hilum and extensive involvement of the hepatoduodenal ligament by the tumor through the lymph nodes. The tumor was classified as inoperable due to this finding. But during the exploration, however, a rupture of the fragile tumor occurred with massive eruption of the necrotic mass and the gallbladder content into the abdominal cavity, accompanied by bleeding of the liver parenchyma. We decided that the condition could only be managed by attempting modified resection. We performed cholecystectomy and non-anatomical resection of hepatic segments S5 and S6 and partial resection of S4 without lymphadenectomy as a debulking operation . The course of hospitalization was uncomplicated, and the patient was discharged to home care on postoperative day 9. Histologically, the tumor was confirmed as MINEN of gallbladder , and its non-neuroendocrine component had the character of moderately differentiated tubular gall bladder adenocarcinoma, while the neuroendocrine component had the appearance of small cell carcinoma and was dominant, accounting for more than 65% of the viable tumor. The neuroendocrine component contained extensive necrosis, with mitotic index 64/10 HPF and a proliferation index of 70% . It was therefore obvious that the prognosis and the subsequent biological behavior would be influenced in particular by the neuroendocrine carcinoma component. Six weeks after the discharge, the patient underwent a follow-up CT scan prior to the initiation of systemic therapy, which revealed a large recurrence of the disease at the resection surface of the liver accompanied by hilar lymphadenopathy. The patient was started on systemic therapy with etoposide and carboplatin in combination with somatostatin analogues with very good radiological effect. We use this regimen as a standard in patients with MINEN of gastrointestinal tract with dominant neuroendocrine component, even with no somatostatin receptors staining available.

On the first day of hospitalization, he underwent surgery for multiple injuries. Based on empirical therapy, cefuroxime (1.5 g, every 8 h) was administrated for infection prevention, and anti-infective therapy with cefoperazone–sulbactam (3 g, every 8 h) and levofloxacin (500 mg, daily) was conducted for common bacteria and traumatic wet lung. On day 2, the patient developed a fever (38.4°C), with an increase of procalcitonin (PCT; 31.47 ng/ml) and lactic acid (8.58 mmol/L) after the operation. The antibiotic treatment was changed to meropenem (1.0 g, every 8 h) plus teicoplanin (0.4 g daily). On day 14, P. aeruginosa was positive in the bacterial culture of wound tissues and was identified as a multiple-resistant strain with antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST; Kirby–Bauer method), thus amikacin (0.4 g/day) was added to the anti-infective regimen.

On day 31, therapy with polymyxin B in a dose of 5 × 105 U/day was initiated instead of ceftazidime–avibactam due to its shortage. In addition to the initial isolates of M hominis, two subsequent cultures obtained in the following week were also positive. The AST with a commercial kit (broth dilution method, Zhongaisheng, Hebei, China) showed that M. hominis was susceptible to doxycycline, minocycline, and josamycin but resistant to azithromycin, clarithromycin, norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, roxithromycin, sparfloxacin, spectinomycin, and levofloxacin .

Physical examination was noticeable for a 3/6-systolic murmur with punctum maximum at fourth intercostal space right parasternal. Key laboratory findings are presented in . His electrocardiogram (ECG) showed sinus rhythm with epsilon waves in V1–4 and T-wave inversions in leads II, III, aVF, and V1–6 . Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) showed enlarged and dyskinetic RV with aneurysmatic extension on RV free wall (RV end-diastolic diameter basal: 65 mm, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion: 21 mm, RV outflow tract in parasternal long-axis view: 53 mm, RV outflow tract in parasternal short-axis view: 61 mm), as well as high-grade tricuspid regurgitation (TR) (grade III/III, effective regurgitant orifice area: 53 mm2, coaptation defect: 8–9 mm) and low-grade pulmonary regurgitation (grade I/III). Left ventricular (LV) size and function were preserved [LV ejection fraction (EF): 55%] and there were no relevant vitia of aortic and mitral valve ( +and +Video 1–3). +We suspected RV cardiomyopathy and investigated patient’s family history. Indeed, his sister had been diagnosed with ARVC as well as both of her teenage children, one of whom suffered from cardiac arrest while playing tennis at the age of 19 but was successfully resuscitated. His uncle, grandfather, and great-uncle sadly passed away from SCD at the age of 59, 60, and 19, respectively . In a synopsis of these initial findings, we initiated workup according to 2010 modified Task Force Criteria. +Seven-day Holter ECG showed two non-sustained ventricular tachycardias (maximum length of 12 beats) and an ectopic beat burden of 22 000/24 h . Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) correlated largely with echocardiographic findings: besides functional and morphological abnormalities, i.e. akinesia of the RV apical and medial anterior wall with signs of fatty degeneration, RV dilation and EF were further quantified (RV end-diastolic volume index: 227 mL/m2, RVEF18%) . Complementary genotyping revealed heterozygous nonsense substitution in PKP-2 gene (NM_004572.3: c.369G>A; p. Trp123Ter), which matched the ARVC phenotype in three databases for clinical variants (ClinVar, dbSNP, gnomAD) ., Conclusively, ARVC was established as definite diagnosis . +Medical heart failure therapy including beta-blocker, angiotensin-converting enzyme-inhibitor, and aldosterone antagonist was introduced. Using the ARVC risk score, the risk for a fast ventricular tachycardia/ventricular flutter/sustained ventricular arrhythmia was calculated at 7.1% within 5 years and patient underwent prophylactic implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation. The latter was complicated by poor impedance levels at preferred implantation site in apical RV myocardium. Adequate connectivity was finally achieved after implantation into high-septal myocardium. +The patient was advised against smoking, high-cholesterol diet, exercise training, and anaerobic activity. We offered psychological counselling and consultation of a local ARVC support group. Monthly follow-ups were set in our specialized ARVC centre and mutation-specific cascade family testing was recommended in our cardiogenetic centre. +On regular follow-up 4 months later, the patient reports clinical deterioration. Electrocardiogram findings appeared unchanged. The ICD device did not elicit ventricular tachycardias. Repeated echocardiography showed severe TR (effective regurgitant orifice area: 40 mm2, proximal isovelocity surface area: 7–8 mm), which now appeared to be additionally aggravated by interference of ICD lead with septal leaflet. Of note, echocardiography-controlled repositioning of the ICD lead did not seem to be promising considering the difficulties in ICD implantation and fragile nature of the RV myocardium. During exercise stress testing, systolic BP and HR increased appropriately. Furthermore, we performed stress echocardiography and supine incremental stepwise cycle exercise right heart catheterization to investigate resting and stress haemodynamics. The onset of dyspnoea at 75 W was correlated with diastolic LV compression and obstruction of LV filling by increasing RV pressure and RV failure . Left ventricular early systolic volume at 100 W was estimated to 50 mL. +Diagnostic angiogram showed coronary sclerosis without obstructions . Resting pulmonary artery (PA) systolic/diastolic and mean pressures were measured at 25/16 and 23 mmHg, respectively. Exercise-induced PA pressures rose slightly to 32/23 and 26 mmHg. The transpulmonary gradient remained regular at rest and when subjected to stress at 12 and 14 mmHg, respectively. Pulmonary artery oxygen saturation was 49% at rest and 37% at performance limit, evidencing slightly increased peripheral oxygen extraction. Overall, there was no evidence for pulmonary hypertension. Extended pulmonary diagnostics using high resolution computed tomography of lungs and spirometry excluded any obstructive and restrictive lung pathologies. Abdominal ultrasound documented systolic flow reversal in dilated liver vessels and inferior vena cava . Gastrointestinal symptoms and dilated liver veins were interpreted as progressing signs of right heart congestion with beginning congestive gastritis and hepatopathy (AST 59 U/L, ALT 73 U/L, GGT 149 U/L, bilirubin 0.9 mg/dL). +We expanded medical treatment by adding standard coronary artery disease prophylactic agents, namely acetylsalicylic acid and rosuvastatin. Heart failure medication was modified by adding torasemide and antiarrhythmic medication was adjusted by discontinuation of bisoprolol in favour of sotalol . Despite conflicting evidence, sotalol is still a guideline-recommended prophylactic agent for patients with ARVC/D, which is based on data from the OPTIC study, showing a trend towards fewer ICD shocks in patients treated with sotalol compared to beta-blockers. On the next regular follow-up, the patient reported a significant improvement regarding symptom burden. Thus, therapy was continued in its present form with regular re-assessments in ongoing monthly follow-ups. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_152_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_152_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..520f10abbbdef2a725471fca8b6ba7dd09698adf --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_152_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +An eight-year-old girl was admitted to the emergency department with an acute primary episode of bilateral lower limb paralysis that had begun approximately 9 h prior.

He had no fever, but was breathless, tachypneic, and severely hypoxemic with a peripheral oxygen saturation of 64% under room air, improving to 98% on 15L of oxygen/minute via a nonrebreather mask. Chest examination revealed bilateral crackles and wheezing. Arterial blood gas analysis showed a respiratory alkalosis and hypoxemia (arterial oxygen partial pressure - PaO2/fractional inspired oxygen - FiO2 ratio 170). Laboratory tests showed an elevated C-reactive protein (43.73 mg/dL) and D-dimer (35 200 ng/mL) and acute kidney injury AKIN 2.

At presentation, his blood pressure was 130/82 mmHg, and his pulse rate was 90 beats per minute. His cardiovascular examination was unremarkable. The electrocardiograph showed T-wave inversion in leads LII, LIII, and aVF . Echocardiography revealed a structurally normal heart with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 55%. Cardiac troponin-I level was normal. +At the age of 52, he was diagnosed with chronic stable angina when a coronary angiogram revealed a diffuse lesion in the right coronary artery (RCA), causing critical stenosis . PCI to RCA was done with implantation of three second-generation DES (zotarolimus-eluting Endeavor Spirit stent, Medtronic Vascular, CA, USA) with an adequate overlap of stent edges. Post dilatation with a 3.0 × 15 mm non-compliant (NC) balloon in the distal RCA and a 3.5 × 15 mm NC balloon in mid-proximal RCA achieved good angiographic results . Intracoronary imaging was not done at that time. He received dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), including aspirin and clopidogrel, for 1-year post-PCI, after which only aspirin was continued. He has also received metoprolol and atorvastatin since then. He did well for the last 9 years following PCI. +During the current presentation, he was diagnosed with non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome and was given 180 mg ticagrelor along with 75 mg aspirin.

This hazy lesion corresponds to the overlap segment of proximal-mid RCA stents ( and ). An intracoronary OCT imaging of RCA was performed (ILUMIEN TM Optis systems, MA, USA) to elucidate the mechanism of stent failure. Longitudinal OCT image (, middle panel) revealed well-apposed struts throughout the length of the stented segment, diffuse intimal hyperplasia, and neo-atherosclerosis, causing a variable degree of luminal stenosis. Furthermore, the OCT appearance of neo-atherosclerosis was variable. While predominantly fibrotic hyperplasia was noticed in the distal and proximal stent, neo-atheroma in the middle stent showed a predominantly lipid-rich plaque with minimal fibrous element, especially at the site of proximal stent overlap. This segment also revealed a thin overlying fibrous cap, plaque rupture, and a white thrombus causing significant luminal area reduction (, upper and lower panels, Videos 1 and 2). Further analysis of the OCT images revealed a vessel diameter of 3.2 mm in the distal reference segment of RCA. This correlates well with the measured mean stent diameter of 3.18 mm in distal RCA, 3.51 mm at the distal stent overlap, and 3.55 mm at the proximal stent overlap segments of RCA, thereby ruling out under-expansion as a mechanism of stent malfunction in the index patient . +We pre-dilated the ISR lesion with a 2.5 × 15 mm semi-compliant balloon followed by a 3.0 × 15 mm NC balloon and a 3.5 × 15 mm NC balloon at high pressure. Our initial plan was to treat the lesion with a drug-eluting balloon as ISR was intrastent. However, OCT imaging after balloon angioplasty revealed a dissection flap at the upper edge of the proximal stent, extending from the neoatheroma. A review of OCT images revealed a predominantly fibrotic plaque at this site . So, the diseased segment was treated with a 3.5 × 38 mm third-generation Sirolimus-Eluting Polymer Free Coronary Stent (Coroflex ISAR-Neo Stent, B. Braun, Melsungen, Germany) followed by high pressure (18 atm) post-dilatation with a 3.5 × 12 mm NC balloon. Repeat OCT imaging showed a well expanded and well-apposed stent with minimal stent area (6.54 mm2) , except at the proximal part where it was malapposed (, Video 3). This segment was further post-dilated with a 4.5 mm NC Balloon at 14 atm as guided by OCT. The final angiogram showed thrombolysis in myocardial infarction III flow . No further OCT imaging was done in view of contrast load. He was discharged on metoprolol, telmisartan, atorvastatin, and DAPT, including 75 mg of aspirin once a day and 90 mg of ticagrelor twice a day. Being a candidate with high thrombotic risk, he was prescribed an extended duration of DAPT as per current guidelines.

She was also anuric, with a creatinine level of 5.0mg/dL (reference range 0.7 to 1.2mg/dL) and elevated liver parameters, with total bilirubin 2.9mg/dL (reference range 0.2 to 1.0mg/dL), aspartate transaminase 2572U/L (reference range 10 to 50U/L) and alanine transaminase 608U/L (reference range 10 to 50U/L). She had leukocytosis, with a white blood cell count of 27.0G/L (reference range 4.3 to 10.0G/L). Her C-reactive protein level was >230mg/L (reference range <5mg/dL) and procalcitonin level was 9.3μg/L (reference range 0.1 to 0.5μg/L). An immediate colonoscopy showed multiple ulcerations of the colonic mucosa . +Because our patient was therapy-refractory and had persisting signs of septic shock and a risk of perforation, a subtotal colectomy was indicated. Just before the beginning of the abdominal surgery, her pulmonary gas exchange worsened. When examined by bronchoscopy, there was no evidence of an obstruction; however, the mucosa of her bronchi was highly inflamed and vulnerable. We observed bleeding originating from her upper airway. The ventilatory conditions were instantly ameliorated by a laparotomy - equivalent to the release of intra-abdominal compartment syndrome. Because of the incipient necrosis of her gall bladder, we performed a subtotal colectomy and a cholecystectomy. During the surgery, 20cm of her rectum were left and blindly closed according to Hartmann’s approach, with an ileostomy and a laparostomy. +Postoperatively, we initiated a calculated therapy with meropenem and caspofungin as well as vancomycin to cover a possible translocation of C. difficile or its toxins. Furthermore, continuous veno-venous hemofiltration was started. +Permanent stabilization of our patient’s organ functions could not be achieved. Hemodynamic, pulmonary and renal failure still persisted and her liver enzyme levels increased massively (aspartate transaminase 8848U/L, alanine transaminase 1039U/L, total bilirubin 9.4mg/dL), correlating with ischemic necrosis in liver segments six and seven detected by ultrasonic testing. Moreover, our patient showed recurrent ventricular and supraventricular tachycardia culminating in a short-term asystole. Echocardiography did not reveal any pathological changes. All blood, tracheal secretion and abdominal swab samples stayed free of pathological germs. A sudden rise in lactate necessitated a second-look operation, during which we found no evidence of mesenteric ischemia. +Histologic examination of her colon showed multiple superficial areas of microulceration of the mucosa, lamina propria mucosae and, to a lesser extent, the lamina submucosa . Medium-sized arteries and arterioles of her entire colon, appendix and gallbladder showed acute vasculitic changes with fibrinoid necrosis of the walls and diffuse infiltration with neutrophil granulocytes, accompanied by a strong perivascular histiocyte-rich and partially granulomatous reaction . Many arterioles also had intraluminal platelet-rich thrombi , others were complete obliterated by inflammatory cells. The affected vessels were localized in the submucosal layer of her bowel and in her gall bladder. These findings strongly suggested an autoimmune multisystem disease like Wegener’s granulomatosis or microscopic polyangiitis. A diagnosis of Wegener’s granulomatosis was confirmed by the results of the serologic antibody tests: her c-ANCA titer was considerably elevated at 1:2560 specific for subclass proteinase 3 (PR3) (>200kU/L). After the histopathological diagnosis and the serological tests, immunosuppression with high doses of corticosteroids and plasmapheresis were started. +Continuing a dosage of 100mg prednisolone daily and plasmapheresis twice a day for almost a week, we gradually achieved a durable stabilization of our patient’s circulation and lung function, a constant downsizing of the ischemic area in her right liver lobe and a cumulative resumption of urine production. After tapering catecholamines and eliminating about 10L of extravascular fluids, it was possible to close the laparostomy and extubate our patient. Her gas exchange was borderline and she required highly intensive airway treatment and intermittent application of continuously positive airway pressure. +A couple of days later, she developed an acute abdomen and we measured a leap in leukocytes up to 75.0G/L. A computed tomography scan showed multiple hypodense areas in her liver appearing as partial necrosis and her spleen failed to show any contrast at all. +A splenectomy was performed due to multiple septic infarctions, although several samples taken from biopsies of the hepatic lesions were sterile. +Postoperatively, our patient could be extubated without difficulty, her leukocyte level fell and after a perioperative deterioration of kidney function, her creatinine and urea levels stayed within an acceptable range because of reparatory polyuria. She did not show any neurological deficits, slowly regained her strength and could be transferred to a standard ward only five days post-splenectomy. +Plasmapheresis was continued three times a week and prednisolone was gradually reduced to 50mg per day. After completion of wound healing, cyclophosphamide treatment could be initiated. +Retrospectively, we discovered some further, interesting aspects about our patient’s medical history: when she was diagnosed with Basedow’s disease two years before, our patient had positive titers for thyroid peroxidase antibodies (380U/mL; normal range <35U/mL), microsomal antibodies (1:6400; normal range <1:100) and thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibodies (29.5U/L; normal range <1U/L). Her parents reported that she had complained about painful knees after exercising and gingival problems for several weeks before exacerbation of the Wegener’s disease. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1725_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1725_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1b99aa13e5c880bd00223b9726c375dbf6ffceda --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1725_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +The patient, a 39-year-old man with frequent urination, urgency and pain in the bladder area while holding back the urine for 1 month was in good health before.

After two weeks of treatment with cephalosporin and M receptor blocker, the symptoms of frequent urination and urgency were partially improved. Review the prostatic fluid indicated that the white blood cells were normal, and the lecithin bodies increased by 20% compared to 2 weeks ago, but the pain in the bladder area was not significantly relieved when the urine was held. Further examination of the urinary system color Doppler ultrasound suggest that the bladder had occupying space. An approximately 2.0 cm solid lesion in the left upper part of the pelvic cavity was seen by ultrasound . The admission-related examination, including blood, coagulation, liver function and kidney function tests as well as electrocardiogram and chest X-ray, showed no obvious abnormalities. CT suggested that a 2.0 × 1.9 cm mass was located in the left front wall of the bladder and was protruding outward with clear boundaries . There was no obvious abnormality of the bladder mucosa on cystoscopy. Nuclear heterogeneous cells were not detected in the urinary exfoliative cytology. +With the results of the imaging examination, a benign tumour was considered. Based on the tumour being convex to the outside of the bladder, a laparoscopic partial cystectomy through the extraperitoneal space was performed . After general anaesthesia, the patient was placed in the supine position with the buttocks raised by 10 cm. We selected a 3 cm midline incision under the umbilicus as the observation hole, cutting the skin, subcutaneous tissue and the anterior and posterior sheaths of the rectus abdominis layer by layer. Placing the balloon under the posterior rectus abdominis, the extraperitoneal space was expanded . We separated the adipose tissue on the anterior wall of the bladder. A mass, 2.0 × 2.0 cm in size with a smooth surface, was seen on the left anterior wall of the bladder and protruded outside of the bladder. Using an ultrasonic knife, the tumour was completely removed from the bladder with 0.5 cm normal bladder tissue margins . The bladder wall was sutured by using 1–0 absorbable barbed suture through continuous full-thickness . A total of 200 ml of normal saline was injected into the bladder through the catheter, and there was no fluid extravasation in the incision of the bladder wall, which confirmed that the suture was reliable. The operation lasted 65 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was approximately 20 ml. Pathological examination described that the bladder mass had a size of 2 × 2 × 1.6 cm, with a surface covering of bladder mucosa and an envelope with clear boundaries, while the cut surface was greyish white. A schwannoma with oedema and bleeding was considered by pathological diagnosis. We used Envision staining to detect the expression of biomarkers. Immunohistochemical staining showed: S100(+), Desmin(−), SMA(−), CD34(−), Ki67 (about 8%+) . The patient used a semi-liquid diet and walked after getting out of bed on the 1st day after surgery, without obvious gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal distension.

Post-mortem examination confirmed marked cardiovascular disease, demonstrated by severe coronary artery sclerosis evident in the left main stem and right coronary arteries with associated critical stenosis (luminal diameter < 1 mm). The right coronary artery bypass graft was patent. There were no acute or healed myocardial infarcts. There was mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy consistent with the history of hypertension. Examination of the lungs revealed an area of possible bronchopneumonia.

At the base of the brain both unci were bulged with prominent grooving, petechial haemorrhages on the right side and soft necrotic brain fragments on the left side. The cerebellar tonsils were also prominently grooved but without haemorrhages or softening. There was moderate calcifying atherosclerosis in the right vertebral artery without luminal narrowing. The rest of the basal arteries were normal with no evidence of thrombotic occlusion, vascular malformation or aneurysm. +Coronal sections of the cerebral hemispheres revealed mild midline shift to the left associated with compressed ventricles in the anterior and central parts . The right inferior horn and the posterior horns were filled with blood clots . There were multiple recent intracerebral parenchymal haemorrhages, various in size and widespread in distribution, affecting the right frontobasal area, the right temporo-occipital lobe, left superior parietal lobe, both posterior occipital lobe areas and the left cerebellar hemisphere. These haemorrhages probably occurred at the same time, and the atypical distribution suggested that they were secondary to the thrombolysis. Furthermore, a soft, cavitating area was identified in the subcortical white matter of the superior temporal gyrus and the insula slightly extending to the putamen, measuring 20x10x10mm. Timing was uncertain but appeared to be older than the haemorrhages, probably representing an ischaemic infarct. The hippocampi, the inferior part of the thalamus and the midbrain were haemorrhagic, soft and fragmented. Typical Duret’s haemorrhages were noted in the central part of the pons. The fourth ventricle contained a moderate amount of clotted blood. Summarizing the macroscopical findings, the direct cause of the death was given as brainstem herniation secondary to widespread recent intraparenchymal haemorrhages, probably related to thrombolysis. Alternative causes of the haemorrhages were also considered and further histological examination was performed. +Microscopic evaluation confirmed extensive recent intracerebral haemorrhages, most of them thought to be due to the thrombolysis therapy, surrounded by marked oedema and hypereosinophilic (red) neurons. Haemorrhages were also detected in the subarachnoid space and the ventricles, in keeping with secondary propagation of parenchymal haemorrhages. In addition, the histology examination also revealed severe CAA (Vonsattel grade 3), which was confirmed by Aβ immunostaining . The CAA was particularly prominent in the occipital lobe and was associated with focal, perivascular and vaguely granulomatous inflammation, in keeping with ABRA . Further, probably subclinical, complications of CAA were noted in the left occipital lobe and in the white matter between the insular cortex and the putamen in form of old (at least 6 months) haemorrhagic microinfarcts . In addition, there were also two separate acute ischaemic lesions, estimated between 3 to 5 days old, in the right insular cortex and the basal ganglia and in the right occipital lobe, which might have caused the new onset neurological symptoms prior to hospitalisation. The parenchymal β-amyloid pathology was not significant, consisting of sparse mainly diffuse and fleece-like plaques throughout the neocortex. No characteristic cored plaques were identified and there were no neurofibrillary tangles by hyperphosphorylated tau, which excluded the possibility of underlying AD. Histological examination of the lung confirmed extensive bronchopneumonia which developed in the terminal stage and also contributed to death. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1790_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1790_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..45f7183623f7c3fe8c3fa9b5fadd0ab7c5441642 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1790_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +A 16-year-old boy is presented complaining of sudden cervicofacial swelling, fever, dyspnea and chest pain one day after dental surgery for an inferior left second molar.

The parents were counselled and informed by a multidisciplinary team of nurses, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, gynecologists, and surgeons as to the subsequent plan of management. +Surgery was performed to the baby 1 week after her delivery after the necessary investigation and preparation was done. The parasitic co-twin was totally excised in the operation that took approximately 6 hours. Her postoperative period was smooth and uneventful; she comfortably suckled on the breast well. She was transfused with a calculated two units of fresh whole blood. Two weeks after the surgery she was discharged healthy with an arrangement for postnatal follow up. +After separation, a pathologic examination demonstrated that skin covered the body of the parasitic twin. The parasitic twin had two deformed lower limbs, one of which was rudimentary. After dissection of the mass of the body, the intestine was seen but there were no chest organs or abdominal organs. The long bones of the bilateral lower limbs and some pelvic bone were seen in the limbs of the parasitic twin. There was also a rudimentary labium but no vaginal opening. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1813_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1813_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3e8014d5e7ff49639f7f4270770e2a329f651ad4 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1813_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 29-year-old Han woman presented with a chief complaint of a tumor under her right clavicle for 5 months, and right shoulder soreness and numbness of the exterior of her right upper arm for 10 days. At physical examination there was a red and warm mass over her right shoulder with mild pain and tenderness. The mass was tough, hardly moveable, and base-fixed. The strength of her right upper limb muscles was 4+. A chest X-ray showed a mass with a high density shadow at the superior posterior right clavicle . A right shoulder computed tomography scan showed a mixed density shadow in the serratus anterior, which correlated with clinical findings . A neck magnetic resonance imaging scan showed abnormal findings in the serratus anterior at the right-side of her chest wall, which also correlated clinically . An electromyogram showed a few positive sharp waves in muscles innervated by the brachial plexus upper trunk. Motor unit potential mixing interference patterns, compound muscle action potential, motor nerve conduction velocity, and sensory nerve conduction velocity were within the normal range. Her right brachial plexus upper trunk was slightly damaged. Based on the above examinations, the patient’s condition was diagnosed as a tumor beneath the right clavicle. She underwent surgery as a treatment. During the operation, the tumor boundary was found to be on the posterolateral side of the middle scalene; anteroinferior of the trapezius, levator scapulae, and postscalene; and behind the brachial plexus cervical nerves 5 and 6 (C5–6). The tumor invaded the serratus anterior. Anteromedial tumor adhered to the C5–6 nerve branches, posterolaterally adhered to the suprascapular nerve, and adhered to the rear edge of the brachial plexus sheath and omohyoid in the front. Under a microscope, the neurovascular and protective brachial plexus sheath, and the C5–6 nerve branches and the suprascapular nerve were carefully separated; tumor subordinates back below the upper edge of the scapula notch were detected; and the tumor of 7×4×3cm size was completely resected . Intraoperative suprascapular nerve stimulation and muscle contractions were normal; the brachial plexus upper trunk was able to be stimulated; contraction of deltoid, biceps, and flexor carpi were normal; and stimulation of the dorsal scapular nerve, scapular muscles, and rhomboid muscle revealed normal contraction. No intraoperative frozen section was obtained. A postoperative histopathological examination showed that lesions were consistent with myositis ossificans .

She was initially seen by the ophthalmologist 2 months ago for loss of vision in her right eye that was thought to be related to her previously diagnosed diabetic retinopathy. She underwent focal laser photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy in her right eye, with no significant improvement in vision. Upon further ophthalmic evaluation, a fleshy, salmon colored conjunctival tumor was identified in her left eye . She was referred to the ocular oncology service and subsequently the conjunctival tumor was biopsied. Histopathologic examination of the specimen revealed sheets of large neoplastic lymphoid cells with moderate nuclear pleomorphism, vesicular chromatin, and large nucleoli underlying the normal conjunctival epithelium . Small lymphocytes were observed admixed with the previously described atypical ones. Immunohistochemical studies showed the large lymphoid cells stained positive (diffuse, strong) for CD20 and MUM-1, less intensely positive for Pax-5, weakly positive for Bcl-6, and negative for CD10. The small background lymphocytes were CD3-positive .

Additionally, both positron emission tomography-CT (PET-CT) and an MRI of her brain failed to reveal any other systemic central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis after an uncomplicated lumbar puncture (LP) did not reveal any malignant cells. +Since the patient had a biopsied conjunctival tumor on the left side but had unexplained loss of vision on the right side as well, she was presumed to have CNS involvement and was treated with high dose systemic methotrexate in addition to rituximab. She received three cycles of methotrexate at 1.5 g/m2 (50% dose reduction due to age and low creatinine clearance) and rituximab at a dose of 375 mg/m2. The first cycle was complicated by severe diarrhea related to Clostridium difficile infection and dehydration and the third cycle was complicated by acute renal insufficiency, fluid overload, insufficient methotrexate clearance, and prolonged hospital stay. Further chemotherapy had to be stopped in view of the side effects. Ophthalmic follow-up revealed improved vision in her right eye. Interval MRI revealed interval improvement in nonspecific scleral thickening and enhancement along the anterior aspect of the left globe. Based on the documented improvement, the patient was to be continued on the same chemotherapy regimen; however, she declined further treatment. The patient was evaluated by radiation oncology but she opted to decline further treatment at this time. She has not followed up by physicians at this hospital after that and has been lost to follow-up. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1898_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1898_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..6051ca096c39a9afb1ede66919d03e7618a786f6 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1898_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 60-year-old Caucasian man was transferred from a regional hospital to a tertiary referral centre for the emergency management of hypercalcaemic hyperparathyroid crisis.

Following AVF construction, he experienced the steal syndrome, resulting in amputation of his left third digit and multiple AVF reconstruction. His left forearm AVF was malfunction due to severe PAD: quantity of blood flow was 70–110 ml/min because of complete obliteration of the proximal radial artery. Angiography demonstrated that obstruction of the proximal radial artery and regurgitation from the palmar arch to the AVF. This AVF condition barely enabled to perform daily hemodialysis with low efficiency with Kt/V < 1.0 (Daugirdas equation) . Exertional symptoms, tingling, and frigid digits were noted mainly due to decreased blood flow to the hand. The left second digits SPP was 17 mmHg. In order to restore digital circulation and AVF, distal dual bypass was planned under general anesthesia. First, in order to secure arterial inflow, brachial arterial stricture was excised and anastomosed end-to-end*. Following arterioplasty, however, the AVF flow measured by the doppler US, was still too weak to maintain hemodialysis. Thus, subsequently, the patient was given 5 000 units of intravenous heparin totally and monitored by ACT testing: 150–200. Regarding proximal anastomosis of the first distal bypass, the left brachial artery (distal to the * anastomosis) and reversed GSV graft were anastomosed with interrupted 7-0 prolene suture. In terms of the distal side, the posterior wall was sutured by parachute anastomosis technique, and the anterior wall anastomosis with interrupted 8-0 prolene was performed. Next, because it is true that AVF in the distal forearm is generally recommended, to repair forearm AVF, the second distal bypass was performed. The proximal portion was created at the proximal radial artery, downstream from the first distal bypass in order to prevent secondary steal syndrome. The left radial artery and reversed GSV graft were anastomosed with interrupted 7-0 prolene suture. Regarding the distal end side, the GSV graft and cephalic vein were sutured by the parachute anastomosis technique with 7-0 prolene. Finally, regurgitation from the palmar arch was ligated. The first distal bypass graft blood flow was 36 ml/min, measured by VeriQ (Medistim, Oslo, Norway). Angiography demonstrated satisfied simultaneous palmar arch and AVF circulation . The left second digits SPP improved to 90 mmHg following reflow. Kt/V improved to1.53 (Daugirdas equation) with well-maintained AVF.

He referred to an incident of DKA that led to hospitalization abroad 20 days ago. The discharge report from the hospital referred to the DKA incident, but mentioned no precipitating factors. The patient was newly diagnosed with T1DM at this time, and intensified treatment with insulin at home was commenced (25 units of basal and 4–8–6 units of preprandial insulin per day). He had been going through stressful times, as he had recently received news of an upcoming fatherhood. He has a body mass index (BMI) of 21.6 kg/m2 and an unremarkable personal and family health record. He mentioned a 5 kg weight loss during the past 2 months. Laboratory tests exhibited glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) at 8.1%, C-peptide at 1.8 ng/ml (normal range 0.5–2 ng/ml), and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) at 120 mg/dl. Antibody tests for anti-tyrosine phosphatase-related islet antigen 2 (anti-IA2) were upper normal (7.3 IU/ml, normal range 0.0–7.4 IU/ml), positive for anti-GAD65 (5.5 IU/ml, normal range 0–5 IU/ml), and negative for anti-islet cell antibodies (ICA) and anti-insulin antibodies (IAA). Initial management included significant downtitration of preprandial insulin. Basal insulin dosage was decreased at about 20 IU daily (initial dosage was 0.2 times the patient’s body weight: 0.2 × 70 kg = 14 units of degludec). Differential diagnosis consisted of T1DM “honeymoon” period and possible misdiagnosis at the hospital. Prolonged T1DM honeymoon periods have been described in the world literature, but the age of the patient, along with hypoglycemic incidents after insulin administration, positive anti-GAD65, C-peptide levels, and positive anti-IA2 and negative T1DM antibodies (anti-ICA, anti-insulin), suggested a type of diabetes other than the initially diagnosed T1DM, most likely LADA, according to the 2020 American Diabetes Association criteria . On a follow-up visit, considering the persistent laboratory and clinical findings, we discontinued the administration of preprandial insulin, regulated the basal insulin dosage, and enhanced treatment with metformin. One month later, under treatment with 2 g of metformin daily and additional sitagliptin, basal insulin dosage decreased at about 8 units per day and was subsequently halted. Two years later, basal insulin needed to be reintroduced, along with metformin and a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). Insulin requirement after at least 6 months from original diagnosis confirmed our previous hypothesis of LADA, which first manifested with DKA. On a 6-year follow-up, according to laboratory findings and glucose measurements, diabetes progressed to T1DM and basal bolus insulin treatment (multidose insulin, MDI) with detemir and lispro was initiated. The patient remains adherent to the regimen, and it has not been modified since. +In addition, at the initial visit, the patient complained of excessive sweating and increased sensitivity to heat. A complete physical examination (PE) revealed upper limb tremor, lid lag, palpable thyroid gland, and heart rate of 110 beats per minute. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels were lower than 0.004 mIU/L (normal range 0.5–5 μIU/ml), total triiodothyronine (T3) at 2.19 nmol/L (normal range 0.9–2.8 nmol/L), total thyroxine (T4) at 14.60 μg/dl (normal range 5–12 μg/dl), free T3 (fT3) at 4.93 pmol/L (normal range 2–7 pmol/L), and free T4 (fT4) at 1.65 ng/dl (normal range 0.8–1.8 ng/dl). There were positive anti-thyroglobulin (anti-TG) (174 IU/ml, normal range < 116 IU/ml) and thyroid peroxidase antibodies (anti-TPO) (245 IU/ml, normal range < 16 IU/ml), while anti-TSH-R antibody was negative. An ultrasound scan of the thyroid gland was not indicative of pathology. Seven days later, a thyroid panel was conducted: TSH, 3.14 μIU/ml; T3, 1.57 nmol/L; T4, 87.19 μg/dl; fT3, 5.60 pmol/L; fT4, 15.26 ng/dl. TSH values decreased spontaneously with no treatment admitted. High levels of total and free thyroid hormones and presence of elevated anti-thyroid antibodies with negative anti-TSH-R navigated the diagnosis toward hashitoxicosis complicating Hashimoto’s disease and made Graves’ disease less likely. One month later, TSH was measured in a laboratory and found to be higher than normal (7.29 mIU/L), so levothyroxine treatment with maximal dosage of 88 μg was decided. On a 2-year follow-up, thyroxine was withdrawn as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis retreated, and the patient has remained euthyroid (TSH and thyroid hormone levels close to normal on blood test). On a 6-year follow-up, there were no identifiable changes in the patient’s thyroid state. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2124_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2124_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1bfa173ed0f6d33f7589033992198be1793d29b0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2124_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 45-year-old Caucasian male presented to the Emergency Department following 3 days of progressively worsening right lower quadrant abdominal pain and headaches.

An ECG, transthoracic echocardiography bubble studies, d-dimer and coagulation studies were performed with no abnormal findings. Serologic studies evaluating for systemic vasculitis including ESR, CRP, ANCA and ANA were also negative. The patient was admitted for 3 days and was discharged on apixaban 5 mg once daily with stable creatinine and eGFR. +The patient represented to the ED 16 days later with recurrent right flank pain, blood pressure 151/88 mmHg, temperature 36.7°C, serum creatinine of 1.3 mg/dL, eGFR 65.7 mL/min/1.73 m2, ESR 32 mm/h, CRP 12.32 mg/dL. Urinalysis was bland with no granular or epithelial casts. A CT angiogram of the aorta was performed to evaluate for aortic dissection, which revealed progression of the previously seen right renal infarct, now extending into the mid pole. There was also an acute dissection of the anterior and posterior divisions of the right renal artery, with several smaller branch occlusions in the mid and lower pole. In addition, there was new perivascular inflammation involving the main right renal artery and persistent inflammation involving the celiac artery, but no dissection or end organ damage. Interventional radiology was consulted for management of the renal artery thrombus to prevent worsening of the infarct. The patient was taken for a renal artery angiogram which confirmed the presence of a dissection and multiple segmental and smaller branch occlusion in the mid to lower right kidney. A decision was made to initiate catheter-directed thrombolysis, and the patient was monitored in the ICU overnight per protocol. Within 48 hours after the initiation of catheter directed thrombolysis, suffered fever and urinalysis was leukocyte esterase and nitrite positive and had 2+ blood and 2+ protein and was subsequently managed with Cefepime for urinary tract infection although urine culture ultimately showed no growth. The following day, the patient returned to IR for a repeat angiogram which revealed no significant reduction in arterial thrombus burden and a persistent dissection. Due to the patient having normal blood pressure, and significant pain improvement, thrombolytic therapy was discontinued and the patient was initiated on dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin (81 mg daily) and clopidogrel (75 mg daily).

A CT angiogram of the renal arteries was performed, showing a new left lower pole renal infarct and a left renal artery segmental branch dissection . There was a similar appearance to the perivascular inflammation involving the celiac and right renal artery branches with no increase in right renal infarct size. Genetic testing panels including COL3A1 for collagen disorders yielded nothing. +At that time other contributors to the acute kidney injury and gross hematuria, including variously: hypovolemia; post-renal obstructive causes; glomerular and tubulointerstitial nephropathies (eg, contrast-induced nephropathy, acute interstitial nephropathy, acute tubular necrosis; were considered but appeared unlikely given lack of obstruction found on imaging (renal ultrasound and CT) as well as profuse red blood cells and protein on urinalysis but otherwise bland urine microscopy). There was no albuminuria. Throughout his presentation, the patient maintained adequate urine output ~120–200 mL/hour (body mass 95.7 kg). At this stage and in light of the radiographic abnormalities including inflammatory changes involving the celiac and renal arteries with associated bilateral renal artery dissections and the absence of vasculitic-, collagen defect-, or thrombophilia-markers, the provisional diagnosis was a non-atherosclerotic non-inflammatory vasculopathy. +As there was no indication for surgical or additional endovascular management, the multidisciplinary team decided to manage the patient medically with atorvastatin (80 mg daily), Aspirin (81 mg daily), clopidogrel (75 mg daily), metoprolol (25 mg daily), amlodipine (5 mg daily) with blood pressure goals of <130/80 and counseling to adhere to a low sodium diet, home blood pressure monitoring and avoidance non-steroidal anti-inflammatories. +Within 2 weeks of this latter presentation, hematuria had been resolved, there was no proteinuria or albuminuria on urinalysis; however, serum creatinine remained elevated and eGFR depressed.

Secondary sterility had occurred, as suggested by a spermiogram that revealed azoospermia (<20,000 spermatozoa/mL). Ultrasonographic test results performed during hospitalization revealed a diagnosis of scrotal arteriovenous malformation and a small fluid slope in the left tunica vaginalis; the testicles appeared to be regular in shape and had an echographic pattern. The patient underwent an angio-computed tomography (CT) of spiral multislides of the abdominal aorta and the lower limbs. The exam results indicated the presence of a raw agglomerate of enlarged blood vessels located in the left-1 side scrotal portion that was causing a contralateral dislocation of the right testicle . The mass was supplied by four arterial confluences: two from the superficial femoral arteries and two from the hypogastric arteries through the bilateral penile arteries. In addition, the scrotal venous system showed varicosity and congestion of the bilateral common femoral veins, most likely due to an arteriovenous shunt. It was decided that the malformation should be treated on the basis of a protocol involving endovascular arterial embolization with Glubran 2. The patient, after signing his informed consent, underwent a selective catheterization of the arterial ramifications via a left-side percutaneous transfemoral approach originating from the left femoral and left hypogastric arteries. A postprocedural angiographic check indicated devascularization of the lesion and a slight reduction in the size of the scrotal tumefaction. Two days after the procedure, a second embolization was performed via a left transfemoral approach to obtain a further reduction in the vascularization of the tumefaction, combined with the selective catheterization of the arterial ramifications coming from the right femoral and right hypogastric arteries . After 72 h from the embolization a skin necrosis on the hemiscrotum due to ischemia of the area previously supplied by the anomalous blood vessel was present. To avoid the development of a serious form of infected necrosis, such as Fournier’s gangrene, the patient underwent repeat surgery and debridement of the wide necrotic skin tissue (A B). During the following days, the patient received daily medications at the lesion site, coupled with endovenous antibiotic therapy. The agglomerate progressively decreased in size, and the necrotic area increased its demarcation. The patient was discharged from the hospital with antibiotic therapy 20 days after the first embolization procedure.

An 82-year-old man underwent laparoscopy-assisted partial gastrectomy for gastric tumor at an outside hospital. The gastric tumor was pathologically diagnosed as UPS, which is a rare high-grade sarcoma. The patients’ clinical course after his partial gastrectomy and the case-specific histopathological findings are reported in detail by Kabashima et al. 3 months after the patient’s first surgery, he was referred to our hospital due to new-onset dizziness and headaches. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a large cerebellar tumor with marked peritumoral edema. The tumor had not been present on staging scans (whole-body computed tomography [CT]) conducted immediately after the gastrectomy. On admission, brain CT revealed a 43 mm × 38 mm × 32 mm tumor in the left hemisphere of the cerebellum. MRI revealed that the tumor was iso-to-hyperintense on T1-weighted image (T1WI) and hyperintense on T2WI and demonstrated strong contrast enhancement after gadolinium injection . Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission-CT (18FDG-PET-CT) revealed FDG uptake of SUV max 7.17. No other region with18FDG uptake was detected. +The patient underwent standard suboccipital craniotomy without navigation or monitoring, performed in the prone position, and the cerebellar tumor was completely resected. The consistency of the white–yellow tumor tissue was dense, and the tissue plane between tumor and normal brain was clearly identified and microscopic gross total resection was achieved, and his postoperative course was uneventful. Postoperative MRI (within 24 h) and contrast MRI (within 72 h) revealed complete resection of the tumor . Symptoms improved after surgery, and he had no deficit and was discharged to go home after 20 days from his operation. +Histopathological analysis showed a proliferation of spindle-to-polygonal-shaped tumor cells with enlarged irregular nuclei and eosinophilic cytoplasm arranged in sheet-like patterns, accompanied by chronic inflammatory infiltration and hemangiopericytomas Staghorn-type branching vessels [ and ]. Employing Ki-67 stains, mitotic figures were frequently observed. Immunohistochemical panel demonstrated that tumor cells were positive for p53 and p16, focally positive for cytokeratin AE1/AE3 CAM5.3, alpha-smooth muscle actin, desmin, and muscle-specific actin (HHF35), but negative for multiple other markers such as cytokeratin CK5/6, CK903, CK14, p40, EMA, GFAP, Oligo-2, IDH-1, ERG, STAT6, and GRIA2. The automated count of MIB-1-labeling index was high and estimated at 37%. We compared brain specimen from the specimen of the stomach after microscopic analysis, and both specimens showed the same histological characteristic. Pathological findings were compatible with that of metastatic tumors from gastric UPS. +The patient underwent repeat brain imaging after 1 and ½ months at follow-up, and no apparent brain tumor residual or recurrence was observed. Only 2 weeks after that last visit, the patient started complaining of headache and nausea. A repeat MRI was ordered, which revealed a 4-cm recurrent cerebellar tumor in the same region, indicating that the 4-cm mass must have grown almost entirely within 2 weeks’ window. Since 2 weeks prior, he had undergone a non-contrast CT with 5-mm slice thickness. Systemic restaging was not performed because the pathological diagnosis was not clear. Again, the patient was taken to surgery and the recurrent tumor mass was completely resected. Histopathological findings were indistinguishable from the previous metastatic tumor again with a MIB-1 labeling index of 37%. After the second operation, the patient received focused brain radiation therapy with added local irradiation (40Gy/20Fr) and three dimensional intensity-modulated radiation therapy (30 Gy/3 Fr) to the tumor cavity. However, a second 9-mm metastatic brain tumor appeared in the temporal lobe. In addition, at the time of radiation therapy to the two lesions of the CNS, further metastatic tumors were detected in the patient’s tonsils. Although systemic chemotherapy was initiated adriamycin (30 mg/m2) plus ifosfamide (2 g/m2) (AI) at an age-adjusted dose of 75% and administered together with dexamethasone coverage; the metastatic tonsilar tumor grew rapidly, indicating that chemotherapy was not effective. Further local radiotherapy in this region also had no effect. The patient was thus transferred to a palliative hospital where he expired 10 days later. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2244_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2244_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..314c628c0e6064182a4283cc35f8d2130aa2841d --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2244_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 45-year-old Caucasian man, a welder, was admitted to our hospital with the chief complaint of a painless right scrotal wall mass from 15 months ago, which had been, recently, increased in size.

Seizures at onset were (1) imbalance and cold sensation and (2) limbs and face paresthesia followed by loss of consciousness and limbs stiffening. MRI scan showed a right parietal dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNET). After surgical removal, the boy was seizure free for 2 years. At 7 years old, focal seizures characterized by behavioral arrest, mental confusion, left upper limb paresthesia, and distorted voice sensations, followed by lower limb stiffening and weakness or imbalance appeared. Long-term video EEG monitoring showed background rhythm asymmetry and right centro-parieto-temporal interictal paroxysmal abnormalities. Ictal EEG highlighted large slow right parietal and temporal waves preceded by rapid activity. Seizures control lacked despite poly-antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) with valproate acid, oxcarbazepine, and clobazam. Control MRI excluded tumor regrowth showing only scar tissue on the superficial and deep-middle inferior parietal region extending to the marginal and angular gyrus, to the posterior insula, and to the inferior parietal gyrus behind rolandic cortex. Thus, the child underwent a second surgery, aided by electrocorticography (ECoG) to remove the altered sulci in the postero-medial portion of the previous surgical cavity as well as the right superior temporal gyrus. Seizure freedom was achieved for 3 years. +Nonetheless, seizure relapsed after 2 years becoming heterogeneous and multidrug-resistant. The boy experienced anesthesia and loss of tone in the left arm, twisting of the jaw to the left and dysarthria accompanied by daze, lightheadedness sometimes associated with headache and dizziness, and negative myoclonus involving the left hand. Therefore, a new pre-surgical epileptic work up was proposed. +The registration was made through 21 copper disc electrodes according to the International System 10-20 (band pass 1.600–70 Hz, sampling rate 512 Hz). The recording lasted 3 days and included Intermittent Light Stimulation protocol at increasing frequencies (3–50 Hz) and 5 minutes hyperventilation. Data were analyzed using Micromed System View. Interictal EEG was characterized by slow activity and spike and slow wave discharges on right central parietal regions, spreading on the posterior vertex ones. Independent and isolated spikes on right posterior temporal derivations were also observed. Three types of seizures were recorded: focal motor, characterized by discharges of spike-wave on the right parietal regions with subsequent bihemispheric diffusion; focal non-motor, characterized by delta-like slow activity; and spike-wave on the right centro-parietal regions with right hemispheric diffusion and negative myoclonus, characterized by slow wave discharges on the right parietal and frontal regions with diffusion on the contra lateral homologous regions. +Cognitive assessment was carried out using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (version IV, 2003) which highlighted a normal level (IQ 88), characterized by a disharmonic profile, in the presence of a significant difference (> 12 points) between the indices, to the detriment of the score obtained in working memory (73) and processing speed (82). Visuo-spatial memory was quite impaired (recall of Rey figure—5ds). Verbal memory tests showed normal performance in short-term recall and slight difficulty in the long-term one. Furthermore, there was a marked difficulty in lexical retrieval with a phonological facilitator and slight difficulty with a semantic facilitator. Tests performed with Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment (NEPSY-II, 2007) showed a marked deficit in sustained attention and a slight difficulty in visual-motor integration. +A scalp hdEEG with 128 channels was performed. The registration was made through pre-assembled caps with 128 electrodes according to the 10-10 system (electrode impedances < 40 kΩ; sampling frequency 1 kHz; the vertex was used as recording reference). The recording lasted about 2 h including wake and sleep. No seizures were recorded. Offline, EEG was analyzed through the Micromed SystemView; band pass filtered between 0.1 and 100 Hz and any paroxysmal anomalies was noted.

From prolonged registration, frequent interictal anomalies were recorded on the deeper contacts of electrode O, I, and on Pi. Less frequent anomalies were found on the more lateral contacts of S and on the deeper ones of T and V. Five focal motor seizures were recorded showing onset on deep O, I, and Pi contacts with slight advance in the first 2 electrodes. Negative myoclonus was related to the presence of fast ripples on the deep contacts of O and I and subsequent slow potential on the most superficial contacts of I. Two electrical seizures were recorded on Ps. Finally, symptoms generally present during patient’s focal non-motor seizures were evoked with the stimulation of the contacts I3 and I4. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2262_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2262_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..45b122f3378a6228614a694c1fa432598d703107 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2262_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +A 49-year-old male was admitted to Nephrology Department for oedema for 1 month and dyspnea for 1 week, with painful livedo reticularis in his left foot.

Tumor markers were as follows: carcinoembryonic antigen of 7.2 ng/mL, carbohydrate antigen 19–9 of 22 U/mL, respectively. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography revealed biliary obstruction and biliary drainage was performed . Cytopathological examination revealed adenocarcinoma of the bile duct. The patient was carefully evaluated whether he overcame pancreatoduodenectomy by cardiac ultrasonography, brain magnetic resonance angiography, nutritional evaluation by rapid turnover proteins (RTPs) (retinol-binding protein of 2.4 mg/dL, pre-albumin of 19.9 mg/dL, transferrin of 196 mg/dL), and CT-based assessment, including osteopenia and sarcopenia. Sarcopenia was evaluated by the area of the psoas muscle at the caudal end of the third lumbar vertebra by measurement of the lengths of the major and minor axes of the psoas muscle . We then evaluated sarcopenia by comparing the area of psoas muscle with previously reported sex-specific average . Osteopenia was defined as actual bone mineral density (BMD) below the calculated standard BMD, which was calculated as previously reported (308.82–2.49 × age in men and 311.84–2.41 × age in women) . BMD was measured in trabecular bone by calculating average pixel density within a circle in midvertebral core at the bottom of 11th thoracic vertebra (Th11) on preoperative computed tomography. The patient was independent in activities of daily living and was graded as performance status 1 and American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status (ASA-PS) 2.

She had no history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, or diabetes. The patient presented with characteristic electric shock-like, lancinating pain in the right V2 distribution area accompanied by right pulsatile tinnitus. The pain was triggered by innocuous stimuli such as brushing teeth or washing her face over the affected trigeminal dermatomes. She was first treated with oxcarbazepine 450 mg daily for 1 month without significant relief. She was then switched to carbamazepine 200 mg daily, which provided initial control of her symptoms for 2 months. However, the pain gradually worsened, requiring an increase in carbamazepine to 600 mg daily. At this higher dosage, discomfort such as dizziness occurred, and the pain was still uncontrollable. +Magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple vascular flow void signals in the right cisternal segment near the trigeminal nerve. Further cerebral angiography revealed a right arteriovenous fistula that was supplied by the petrous branch of the middle meningeal artery of the right external carotid artery and the posterior meningeal artery branch of the right vertebral artery (A&B). The fistula was located between the tentorial dura mater and drained through the superior petrosal vein (SPV) to the basal vein (Borden class III). Hence, interventional embolization was performed through the enlarged right external carotid artery to the posterior branch of the middle meningeal artery. During the operation, a Marathon microcatheter was used for superselection to the fistula; the onyx spread well and the casting was satisfactory. Following embolization, the patient's pulsatile tinnitus resolved, however TN recurred on postoperative day 3 with identical location and characteristics as her preoperative pain. Her postoperative medical regimen consisted of carbamazepine 400 mg daily and the addition of pregabalin 300 mg daily in an attempt to control her persistent facial pain. According to the patient, this adjustment provided a modest decrease in frequency of painful paroxysms, though her symptoms remained suboptimally controlled. Six months postoperatively, follow-up angiography revealed complete obliteration of the DAVF . +Therefore, we decided to perform MVD via the retrosigmoid approach for this patient. Preoperative re-examination of the T2-constructive interference in steady state (CISS) high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance sequence showed that the vascular flow void signal was significantly reduced compared with that before embolization, but the significantly expanded flow void signal near the trigeminal cisternal segment could still be seen (C). During the operation, the SPV was found to be tortuously dilated and formed a venous lake. The blood vessels showed a post-embolization appearance, were dark blue, and had no arterial pulsation. The pontotrigeminal vein, which joins the SPV from the ventral side, was also tortuously dilated, dark blue in color, and hard in texture, and venous thrombosis was considered. The dilated vein pushed down the trigeminal cisternal segment from the ventral side (A). We attempted to separate the neurovascular vessels with spherical microvascular strippers, but the thrombosed veins were severely sclerotic and difficult to move. Therefore, bipolar coagulation was used to reduce the diameter of the vein in the intermittent 7 W of power so that the trigeminal cistern was no longer compressed. A Teflon pad was then placed between the draining vein and the trigeminal cisternal segment to further open the nerve–vessel space, and the branch of the superior cerebellar artery was found to form compression; therefore, we routinely used a Teflon pad on the responsible blood vessel in the REZ (D). The patient's right facial pain disappeared immediately postoperatively, and she had transient facial numbness that disappeared 3 weeks postoperatively. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2368_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2368_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..6b26660c8b514d8270f02e267bcfa5589f7d73a1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2368_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +An 18-year-old male presented to a local hospital with sudden chest pain accompanied by headache, palpitations, and shortness of breath for 18 h.

After an aortic cross-clamping, antegrade and retrograde cross perfusion of histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) cardioplegia solution were performed. The right atrium was incised, and the aortic valve was exposed through an oblique incision at the aortic root. Exploration showed that the aortic sinus was grossly dilated and penetrated into the right atrium, with a rupture size of approximately 1.2 × 1 cm . The rupture was repaired with a pericardial patch sutured intermittently using 4-0 polypropylene. No leak was detected after the repair. The aortic root and the right atrial incision were then closed using 5-0 polypropylene sutures.

She was admitted to the epilepsy monitoring unit of a tertiary referral center for the feasibility of epilepsy surgery. On the initial clinical examination, she had no other symptoms or signs. The routine laboratory tests were negative. Magnetic resonance imaging showed right hippocampal atrophy . Her habitual seizure was recorded during video-electroencephalography monitoring. The seizure began with the right hand automatism and ictal speech, which suggest that the ictal onset zone would be on the right side. An evolution of rhythmic delta activity was observed in the right temporal area beginning 16 s after the automatism (see Additional file 1: Video S1). As the ictal discharge spreads to the left temporal area, which means the secondary generalization, the ictal speech disappeared. After 20 s from the secondary generalization, she had rhythmical movement of her legs, similar to stepping through a dance, and the simultaneous video-electroencephalography showed regional slow waves over both of her frontal areas. When the ictal rhythm has switched to the left side, the left upper limb automatism and immobility of the right upper limb represented the rhythmic theta activity, which is still seen in the left temporal area.

He was admitted to our hospital at the request of an external consultant in January 2008; the initial laboratory evaluation is listed in Table . Methotrexate was initiated with good response; 1 year later methotrexate was changed to leflunomide because of liver toxicity. Globulin levels at admission and 1 year after were 5.2 and 7.2g/dL, respectively. Of interest, although he also had positive anti-double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and anti-nucleosomes antibodies, which normally have a higher specificity for the diagnosis of SLE, at admission we could not make a diagnosis because of the absence of clinical manifestations other than arthritis and sicca. +Hyperemia and mild eye pain appeared in March 2009, and a diffuse scleritis was diagnosed. Therefore leflunomide was suspended and he received prednisone (1mg/kg), tapered to 5mg/day in 1 month and suspended after another month because a mouth ulcer appeared. +Multiple important mucosal bleeding episodes (epistaxis and gingival hemorrhage) started in 2009, and coagulation tests were conducted through 2010, with the following results: prothrombin time, international normalized ratio and activated partial thromboplastin times were normal (11/10.4 seconds; 1.2; 31.1/26.9 seconds, respectively), VWF activity was observed with low ristocetin cofactor (RCo) at 33.6UI/dL, high VWF antigen (VWF:Ag) >200UI/dL, and a low VWF:RCo to VWF:Ag ratio. Furthermore, an Ivy bleeding time test of more than 15 minutes and normal factor VIII activity (70UI/dL) were observed. An in vitro test showed that the patient’s IgG inhibited the VWF:RCo of normal plasma, therefore the RCo activity inhibition test was positive, although this was not necessary for the diagnosis. A characteristic aVWD laboratory test with the identification of a causal underlying disease, integrated the diagnosis . +The patient was admitted to the ER in April 2011 with a 24-hour evolution of progressive dyspnea, cough, thoracic pain, and palpitations, 104beats/minute, 60/40mmHg, temperature of 38°C, pulse oximetric saturation 88% and 30 breaths/minute. Cold, pale and mottled skin was also observed; laboratory values at ER admission are listed in Table . There were no signs of arthritis or bleeding. Initial crystalloid reanimation was made with partial response, and persistent tachypnea and hypoxemia (arterial oxygen tension/fraction of inspired oxygen = 245.7) precluded a rapid intubation sequence. He was then transferred to the intensive care unit (ICU) 12 hours later. Initial laboratory ER patient data are listed in Table ; Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment values at ICU admission were 11 and 27 points respectively. +An electrocardiogram showed an incomplete right bundle block not previously detected. A chest X-ray revealed no infiltrates, and complementary laboratory tests did not suggest a related infection. The placement of a pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) was made under the indication of a differentiation between cardiogenic and non-cardiogenic shock (see Table ). The initial patterns showed a precapillary pulmonary hypertension; therefore, in the autoimmune context of the patient, although serial negative antiphospholipid antibodies were noted in his history, acute pulmonary embolism was the first choice for diagnosis. Pulmonary angiography was conducted, and when no clot was discovered, PAH associated with connective tissue disease was considered because pulmonary hypertension has been historically associated with connective tissue diseases. +These PAC parameters were the same as observed by Condliffe et al. and Murata et al. except for the pulmonary vascular resistance index, which was greater in our patient in comparison to the Condliffe et al. cases (715 versus 1525 dyne·second/(cm5·m2)). Because connective tissue disease may cause PAH because of the vasculature pathology, the difference in more severe resistance may be explained by the changes in the rheological properties (1 poise (P) = 1g·(second·cm)-1 = 1dyne·second/cm2) present in the HVS, where a decrease in the blood flow can explain the resistance increase. Laboratory blood samples hinted about the thickness of blood, so viscosity was measured and found to be 65.8cP (<1.9cP). +Lymphadenopathy and organomegaly were ruled out. A bone marrow biopsy did not show clonality of plasma cells. Serum protein electrophoresis confirmed the presence of a massive polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia, and no paraproteinemia or monoclonal cell population was found from the electrophoretic pattern of the patient’s plasma. Hypergammaglobulinemia was the cause of HVS associated with autoantibodies. Three sessions of plasma exchange therapy were made. Albumin and frozen fresh plasma were used as the expander, and one circulating blood volume was utilized. Significant mental, hemodynamic recovery and clinical outcomes became evident. A negative Q value was observed in the HVS in this patient after taking into account the Starling vascular permeability formula, where the microvasculature is influenced by protein content and transcapillary fluid flux, specifically, where Q is equal to volume of flow across the capillary wall. This finding led to the conclusion that dilution of protein content may alleviate the HVS, and the fluid administration was considered supportive therapy with judicious consideration of the compartment shift of the solutions. His renal function returned to basal state and he was extubated on day 7 of ICU admission. He was then discharged from the ICU and hospital, respectively with good prognosis (Charlson comorbidity index of 0 points). +The patient now attends external consult without respiratory symptoms. One month after hospital discharge his arthritis returned and methotrexate was resumed with good clinical response. Hydroxychloroquine with steroids were initiated because of persistent elevated anti-double stranded DNA (last value at February 2013, 20.2U/mL), no bleeding sign had been present with persistent positive VWF:Ag values. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2499_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2499_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d6e388be45061eb3f2ec19bc7b52484b8fb7d081 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2499_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 90-year-old woman visited our hospital due to a large area of erythema and localized skin ulceration with hemorrhage of her right breast.

Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) did not show increased fluorodeoxyglucose activity at the mural nodule . The cystic tumor was considered potentially malignant because the mural nodule was growing in size and had apparent blood flow inside, so we offered the patient two options: surgical resection or careful watching.

His blood pressure was normal at 110.70 mmHg and oxygen saturation rate was of 95% on ambient air. Axillary temperature was 38.8 °C. His medical history showed that was being treated with albendasol 800 mg daily for months because of two hydatid cysts in the liver. One of the cysts was located on the dome of liver segment III and the second was on segment VII just over the right kidney .

Both liquid cultures (MGIT, Becton–Dickinson, Baltimore, MD, USA) and solid cultures (Löwenstein-Jensen media, Beckton Dickison, Baltimore, MD, USA) were positive. Following internal procedures and the manufacturer’s instructions, rapid identification of the positive mycobacterial culture was performed using the BD MGIT TBc Identification Test© (Beckton Dickinson Diagnostic, USA), an immunochromatographic assay based on the detection of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis MPB 64 antigen. The result was negative for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. After review of the medical record, BCGosis was suspected, and the PCR-based Xpert MTB/Rif assay (Cepheid, USA) was performed on the positive culture and gave a positive result for M. tuberculosis complex. M.bovis BCG identification was later confirmed by the Belgian national reference center which performed a second PCR targeting CSB and RD1 . +Management of M. bovis mycotic aneurysms include both surgical replacement with an aortic graft material and 9–12 months antimycobacterial therapy including isoniazid, rifampicine and ethambutol . Pyrazinamide is not used due to intrinsic resistance of M. bovis to this drug. Antimycobacterial therapy decreases the risk of relapse following surgery . +As a result, anti-tuberculosis therapy with rifampicine, ethambutol, isoniazide and pyrazinamide was started in our patient. Pyrazinamide was discontinued upon definitive identification of BCG. After 2 months, ethambutol was discontinued and rifampicin and isoniazide were pursued for additional 7 months. The patient showed no signs of relapse after two-years of follow up. The clinical examination and the CT were normal at that time. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2614_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2614_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..47940630304f9e955e4f0e54ce0a666096e760a1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2614_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 70-year-old Greek-Caucasian man was admitted to our hospital with diffuse abdominal pain of sudden onset three hours prior to his admission.

Eighteen years before, the patient had developed the same condition on the contralateral leg and a below the knee amputation had been performed. After biopsy for confirmation and staging including whole body CT scan and regional lymph node sonography, the tumor board recommended the curative resection of the localized tumor. A curative en bloc resection of the tumor together with the soft tissue and 15 cm of involved tibia was performed . A polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) spacer was used to bridge the tibia and an external fixator stabilized the leg . The wound was temporarily closed using negative wound pressure therapy (NPWT). The histopathological findings showed macroscopically a 165 × 152-mm large tumor, microscopically with 22-mm invasion of the fatty tissue and 10-mm invasion of the tibia, with a at least 18-mm tumor-free margin on the surface and at least 5 mm deep (pT4a, pNx, L0, V0, Pn0, G2, R0) . After achieving the R0 resection, a reconstruction plan was developed. Digital subtraction angiography was performed, showing a three-vessel supply of the leg. Being the only leg in an otherwise healthy patient who was mobile with a leg prosthesis on the right side, the indication for limb preservation was established. Seven days after the first surgery, the reconstructive surgery took place. The PMMA spacer was removed and a proximal pedicled fibular bone flap was harvested. The bone length was 18 cm. The bone ends were then beveled to fit the tibial medullary cavity and the fibula was then press-fitted in the tibia, reconstructing the 15-cm bone gap with 1.5 cm of fibula lying proximally and distally in the tibia . Two centimeters of proximal fibula was resected to ensure a tension-free pedicle positioning. A plate and screw osteosynthesis was performed, bridging the fibula graft, but fixating the beveled edges to the tibia. The external fixator was now removed. The muscles of the anterior and lateral compartment remained supplied by the anterior tibial vascular pedicle. The remaining soft tissue defect of 26 × 20 cm was measured and a template was transferred to the right thigh, centered on the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery. An extended ALT fasciocutaneous flap measuring 26 × 14 cm including two perforator vessels was harvested. The vessel anastomosis at the recipient site was performed to the anterior tibial artery as a flow-through flap and to the venae commitantes using vessel couplers . The medially exposed gastrocnemius muscle was split skin grafted . The donor site was also split skin grafted from the contralateral side. Postoperatively antibiotic treatment was initiated. The distal part of the flap (8 × 4 cm) showed a demarcation due to inadequate perfusion . At revision surgery, after flap debridement, pus emptied from the plate surroundings. A thorough debridement with lavage of the site was performed. NPWT was used for one cycle to control the infection. Bacteroides fragilis could be isolated and the antibiotics were adapted to the antibiogram. At the next surgery, further debridement and lavage with the exchange of the plate and screws was performed. The remaining soft tissue defect was covered with a second ALT flap measuring 16 × 7 cm from the left thigh, including the fresh split skin donor sites, using two perforator vessels . The flap anastomosis was performed end-to-side to the posterior tibial vessels, distal to the first anastomosis. The donor site was closed primarily. Postoperatively, all wounds showed primary healing. The antibiotics were administered for a total of 6 weeks starting from the last surgery. After 4 weeks, mobilization with partial weight-bearing of the leg was initiated. Twelve weeks postoperatively, ambulation using a wheeled walker was started. +One year postoperatively, the CT scan showed insufficient bony consolidation at the proximal and distal tibia-fibula transition despite exogenic ultrasound therapy, so a revisional surgery was performed. The extended ALT flap was longitudinally split to provide access to the plate while avoiding the lesion of the vascular pedicle. Two osteosynthesis plates were used to stabilize the leg medially and laterally and to ensure bone consolidation. Autologous cancellous bone was applied at the transition between the fibula and tibia proximally and distally. Postoperatively, the wounds healed without issues. After 6 weeks, mobilization of the leg was started using a fitted boot with pressure distribution to the tibial tuberosity and the foot. After 3 months postoperatively, the exogenic ultrasound therapy was continued for another 3 months. The pressure distribution was progressively switched from the tibial tuberosity to the foot. +Two years after the beginning of treatment, the boot was completely removed. The patient was mobile on the reconstructed leg and below-the-knee prosthesis on the contralateral side . The extension of the foot was actively possible (Video 1). The X-rays and CT-scan showed a fibular hypertrophy of about 90% of the tibia as well as no local recurrence of the tumor and no metastasis. Considering the age of the patient, R0 resection of the lesion, no lymph node metastasis or other metastasis, no adjuvant therapy was performed. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2652_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2652_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1f04afc451721671c08b6934c3343061cc4f7d72 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2652_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 45-year-old male patient was diagnosed as subarachnoid and intracerebral hemorrhages in the left fronto-parieto-temporal lobes and underwent decompressive craniectomy with coiling of a ruptured aneurysm of the left middle cerebral artery at the neurosurgery department of a university hospital.

During the operation, intraoperative findings revealed that the tumor appeared to be benign and was separate from the pancreatic duct or bile duct. We therefore performed a partial pancreatectomy instead of PD. Since the right gastroduodenal artery and small vein penetrated the tumor, they were ligated and detached.

In the Elastica van Gieson staining, most vessels of the tumor had no muscular layer. These vessels were capillary blood vessels (CD31, CD34, and Factor VIII were positive, and D2-40 was negative) and lymphatic vessels (CD31 and D2-40 were positive; CD34 and Factor VIII were negative).

She had been clinically followed up for NF1 up to the age of 18 years, but these follow-ups had ceased. +The patient was referred to our hospital for multiple painful subcutaneous tumors, the largest of which was in the inner thigh, measuring up to 4 cm. Surgery was scheduled for the removal of the lesions. During the surgery, while under general anesthesia, she experienced a high systolic blood pressure of up to 200 mmHg and wide-complex tachycardia of up to 150 beats per minute. Skin erythema was also observed. Anesthesia was intensified and the symptoms subsided. Surgery was completed as planned, and 12 tumors were subjected to pathological examination. These were diagnosed as benign conventional neurofibromas according to World Health Organization (WHO) criteria . +After the surgery, she underwent cardiac MRI, where no structural abnormalities were found. However, there was a large heterogeneous mass, which in the subsequent abdominal MRI was confirmed to be a left adrenal mass measuring 7.4 × 6.3 × 4.4 centimeters. Hormonal testing revealed elevated metanephrine (1.2 nmol/L) and normetanephrine (18.0 nmol/L) levels, raising suspicion of pheochromocytoma. The patient was started on phenoxybenzamine and surgery was scheduled. Preoperative abdominal computed tomography revealed a 6 × 3 × 2.7 cm cystic and solid tumor within the right gluteus minimus muscle. Retrospectively, according to abdominal CT, this tumor had existed already 7 months before, with no growth in this time. Open surgery for the adrenal tumor was commenced, and the left adrenal gland containing the tumor was removed. The tumor was interpreted by a pathologist as a pheochromocytoma according to the WHO criteria . +Otherwise uneventful post-surgery recovery was hindered by the Covid-19-infection, during which thoracic radiography was performed. This revealed a 1,4 cm diameter left upper lobe tumor, which was confirmed by pulmonary CT. These findings were followed by 68Ga-DOTANOC PET-CT, which showed above-background uptake in both lung (SUVmax 6,2) and gluteal (SUVmax 5,0) tumors. The gluteal tumor was radiologically suspected to be a neurofibroma or malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, and core needle biopsy was performed. Core needle biopsy was difficult to interpret, but the pathologist suspected a high-grade sarcoma. The final diagnosis was not obtained from the biopsy. Biopsy findings prompted clinicians to suspect lung metastasis. Subsequently, the gluteal tumor was surgically resected, and a right upper lung lobectomy was performed separately. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and the patient underwent hysterectomy for histopathologically confirmed leiomyomas. The patient is disease-free after 15 months after diagnosis. +The cut surface of the adrenal tumor showed a well-circumscribed hemorrhagic tumor. The adrenal tumor is composed of plump epithelioid cells with an abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and nested “Zellballen” growth pattern. The nuclei showed moderate variation in size, clumped chromatin, and small conspicuous nucleoli. Marked intratumoral hemorrhage was observed. The tumor cells stained positive for chromogranin and synaptophysin and weakly and heterogeneously stained with S100. In addition, occasional S100 positive sustentacular cells were identified, rimming the tumor cell nests . +The intragluteal tumor was well circumscribed and had a fibrous pseudocapsule. The cut surface revealed a gray-tan tumor with small cystic spaces. Histological examination revealed a predominantly solid tumor with frequent cystic growth. The tumor was composed of partly spindly hyperchromatic mononuclear cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasms. Large pleomorphic and multinucleated cells rimmed cystic spaces. Variable numbers of lymphocytes and histiocytic cells were observed intermixed with the tumor cells, and focal aggregates of foam cell histiocytes were also observed at the edge of the tumor. No tumor necrosis was observed. The tumor was completely resected with < 0,1 cm marginal resection margins without the accompanying fascia . +Tumor cells were strongly and diffusely positive for desmin and patchy positivity for SMA was seen. The core needle biopsy sample showed weak MyoD1 positivity in scattered cells; however, the surgical sample was completely negative for MyoD1 despite repeated staining from another block. This discrepancy may be due to inadequate fixation. The large multinucleated cells palisading around the cystic spaces were strongly and diffusely positive for p53, whereas the cells in the solid areas showed a wild-type expression pattern. CD68 and CD163 showed an abundant population of histiocytic cells intermixed with tumor cells . Ki-67 was low at 5%. Mitotic figures were inconspicuous in 2/50 high-power fields (11,8 mm2) at 40x magnification.

Entrapped non-atypical respiratory epithelial cells were frequently observed between the nodules. Occasional intermixed mature adipocytes were also observed. No mature terminally differentiated chondroid component was observed in this case. Immunohistochemical findings showed that the stellate cells were strongly and diffusely S100-positive, supporting their chondroid background. Pancytokeratin AE1/AE3, CD34, and EMA were negative. Occasional scattered cells showing smooth muscle differentiation (SMA + and desmin+) were observed among the stellate cells. Ki67 proliferation was very low < 1–2%.

The patient began consuming small amounts (e.g. ranging from”a taste” to ¼–1/2 cup) of a family recipe of gumbo consisting of okra and tuna at about 2-months of age as was the cultural practice for families from their native West African nation. She consumed her family’s gumbo soup regularly within her diet for a year until she experienced recurrent, projectile emesis and diarrhea 2–3 h after an isolated consumption of ½ a cup of gumbo. She would have over five episodes of projectile emesis, about every 10 min over the course of 2 h, and non-bloody, non-mucoid diarrhea that lasted for about 2 h. No cutaneous or respiratory symptoms were observed to indicate IgE-mediated hypersensitivity. After the resolution of her symptoms, the patient was lethargic, but she responded well to oral hydration with apple juice and tolerated intake of foods high in carbohydrates such as spaghetti and crackers. Emergency room care was not utilized. Within the same month, the family gave the child okra and tuna ingredients from the gumbo soup to consume separately. The patient exhibited no symptoms after consuming the tuna, but did experience recurrent, projectile emesis and diarrhea 1 h after ingesting the okra. The family then bought a fresh batch of okra to determine whether the okra in their possession was problematic, but after consumption, the new okra triggered identical symptoms of emesis and diarrhea for the patient for her 3rd and final reaction. Figure illustrates her clinical course timeline pertinent to the FPIES history. +Based on her history, she was clinically diagnosed with FPIES and advised to avoid okra and all okra-based foods. The family strictly heeded this suggestion and no further incidences of reactions occurred. At the family’s discretion, okra in gumbo soup was slowly reintroduced at 3 years of age, in serving sizes starting at about ¼ cup on a daily basis with good tolerance and the patient has since been asymptomatic since. No other changes in her medical history were noted and she now has no need for any food avoidance measures. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_288_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_288_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..00b730a52af85b5d2733c0644735d54c980b19d0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_288_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 58-year-old man had experienced recurrent abdominal pain and melena for 3 years, but repeated gastroenteroscopy and CTA had failed to find bleeding lesions. +On June 30, 2020, the patient presented to our department with a history of recurrent abdominal pain and melena for 3 years.

The right eye had lost vision due to suspected Candida keratitis after penetrating keratoplasty, which was performed in 2007. A mild anterior chamber inflammation and keratic precipitates with small corneal oedema, followed by refractory secondary glaucoma, caused bullous keratopathy in the left eye that necessitated DSAEK in 2011. The clinical findings observed during these periods, such as unilateral high intraocular pressure and corneal oedema with keratic precipitates, were suggestive of cytomegalovirus (CMV) corneal endotheliitis. A diagnosis of CMV corneal endotheliitis was made based on detection of CMV DNA in the aqueous humour after DSAEK. Corneal grafting failed even with administration of 0.5% ganciclovir eye drop six times with 0.1% fluorometholone eye drop four times daily for more than a year. After the second DSAEK in 2013, 1.0% voriconazole, 0.5% ganciclovir, and 0.1% betamethasone phosphate eye drops continued to be administered four times daily for 2 years. In 2015, the patient presented with small crystalline opacities in the centre of the cornea that progressed extremely slowly and had multiplied by 2017 . The patient complained visual disturbance without any eye pain or foreign body sensation when the corneal opacity covered the visual axis, although he did not exhibit any subjective symptoms when the keratitis occurred for the first time. Gram staining of the scraped cornea revealed an unstained small oval microorganism that was only visible by Fungiflora Y staining . Given the past episode of vision loss of the other eye due to suspected Candida keratitis, we administered two doses of voriconazole by intrastromal injection. Since the treatment was ineffective, penetrating keratoplasty was performed. The excised corneal tissue was fixed with formalin, embedded in paraffin, and processed for histological analysis. +Histologically, numerous oval organisms, 1.3–2.6 μm in diameter, were found throughout the corneal stroma. The organisms could be identified by haematoxylin and eosin staining and Ziehl–Neelsen staining, and fluoresced under ultraviolet illumination by Fungiflora Y and Uvitex 2B staining, but were unstained with periodic acid-Schiff reaction and Grocott’s staining . For TEM observation, ultrathin sections were prepared from the targeted area of paraffin sections after osmification and embedding in Epon blocks by the inverted beam capsule method . They were observed with an HT 7700 microscope (Hitachi High-Technologies, Tokyo, Japan). A polar tube with multiple loose coils—which is consistent with the morphology of microsporidia—was detected in the spore-like elements of the microorganisms by TEM . The corneal graft remains transparent and no clinical findings suggestive of recurrence of microsporidial keratitis nor graft rejection is found with administration of 0.1% betamethasone phosphate eye drop four times daily at 1 year and half postoperatively. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2941_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2941_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..b3fa46c70e1a39bc745ec98fe847054728d710ec --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2941_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 73-year-old woman (height, 157 cm; weight, 43 kg) visited a physician 7 days before admission to our hospital for dizziness, loss of appetite, and fatigue, but no specific issues could be determined, and the patient returned home without receiving treatment.

On the 11th day of hospitalization, although her oxygen saturation decreased with light exertion but stabilized at rest in the supine position, we changed the oxygen administration method to OxyMaskTM 8 L/min. Although oxygen saturation was maintained when the patient was at rest and in the supine position, it dropped to lower than 80% when the patient was in the sitting position after, for instance, moving to a portable toilet. Moreover, more than 30 min was needed for oxygen saturation to increase even after starting high-flow oxygen therapy with fraction of inspiratory oxygen 0.5 or higher. However, SpO2 rapidly recovered when the patient was repositioned to the supine position. We suspected the presence of a right–left shunt, which increased with change in position, and asked the cardiologist to search for a PFO or ASD. We performed contrast-enhanced CT and echocardiography but could not find an intracardiac shunt. Afterward, although her oxygen saturation slightly decreased when she sat or stood, her oxygenation slowly improved, and she was discharged under home oxygen therapy with 0.5 L/min via a nasal cannula 28 days after admission. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3016_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3016_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..bdff2768f63deb862bae03c3a0252becdbbfbeec --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3016_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +A 53-year-old man, who was morbidly obese with a BMI of 75 kg/m2, presented with shortness of breath (SOB) and hypercapnia.

In close cooperation with the transplant center (Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität), we modified immunosuppressive medication, replacing sirolimus with tacrolimus due to its potential lung toxicity.1 Once a steady serum level was reached, we withdrew mycophenolate. + +The patient was monitored in an intensive care unit for 3 days and received 4 L oxygen supplementation via nasal cannula. Arterial oxygen saturation dropped as low as 89% with a Horovitz index of 169 mm Hg and an alveolar-arterial gradient of 162 mm Hg (age corrected <23 mm Hg) indicating a potential severe case with a moderate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and a consecutive V/Q mismatch. As there were no signs of further relevant deterioration, the patient was transferred to our normal ward.

There was no increase in procalcitonin or a left shift in granulocytes; thus, antibiotic treatment was discontinued. Respiratory symptoms declined after 9 days so we tested sputum as well as throat and nose swabs for SARS-CoV-2 on the following 2 days. PCR was negative in all specimens. A multiplex PCR in another sputum as well as serological results showed no clues for CMV reactivation or other viral or bacterial agents. The patient received hydroxychloroquine a total of 9 days. We were able to discharge the patient 12 days after admission. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3153_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3153_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..b09d39dca3a3665289f9251ae048110e53c55d02 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3153_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +A 35-year-old woman (gravida 1, para 1; uneventful pregnancy with history of first delivery at 32 years of age) was referred to our cardiac emergency department for the management of heart failure due to PPCM. The patient had a benign medical history before the current delivery of twin pregnancy. Her blood pressure had been within the normal range throughout the pregnancy, ranging from 111/64 to 129/75 mmHg in the absence of antihypertensive agents, and she had not developed proteinuria during the pregnancy. She was admitted to the obstetric hospital for the management of her pregnancy at 32 weeks of gestation. On admission, she was asymptomatic. However, chest radiography showed cardiac enlargement [cardiothoracic ratio (CTR), 54%], and transthoracic echocardiography showed a slightly dilated cardiac chamber and preserved LV function [LV end-diastolic dimension (LVDd)/LV end-systolic dimension (LVDs), 51/34 mm; LVEF calculated using Teichholz’s formula, 54%]. Her plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level was elevated at 138 pg/mL. At 35 weeks of gestation, she unexpectedly gained body weight, and chest radiography showed further cardiac enlargement (CTR, 58%) and left pleural effusion. Her LV dimensions and BNP level also showed slight increases (LVDd/LVDs, 54/36 mm; BNP level, 154 pg/mL), while the LVEF was still preserved (62%). Although her ratio of mitral valve inflow velocity to left ventricle wall tissue velocity was within normal range (E/e': 9.4), the trans-tricuspid pressure gradient was mildly elevated (34 mmHg), suggesting a certain degree of diastolic dysfunction had caused her pleural effusion. Her electrocardiogram did not change during pregnancy. + +She subsequently underwent usual vaginal delivery, and healthy twin neonates were born at 38 weeks. Immediately after delivery, progressive malaise and dyspnea developed. Chest radiography revealed pulmonary congestion and increased bilateral pleural effusion. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a severely reduced LV systolic function and increased LV dimensions. Thus, the patient was diagnosed with heart failure, and PPCM was suspected as the underlying etiology. The patient was referred to our tertiary medical center for further management. + +On referral to our hospital, the patient’s pulse rate was 103 beats/minute, her blood pressure was 150/97 mmHg, respiratory rate was 29 breaths/minute, and room air oxygen saturation was 94%, with a New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class III. Her BNP level was elevated at 2,696 pg/mL. Chest radiography showed further cardiac enlargement (CTR, 64%) and pulmonary congestion. On transthoracic echocardiography, LVDd/LVDs was 58/53 mm, and LV wall motion exhibited severely reduced contraction, with an LVEF of 24% and only mild mitral regurgitation. + +Emergency right heart catheterization indicated progressive heart failure with a high pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (25 mmHg), high pulmonary arterial pressure (40/23/30 mmHg), normal right atrial pressure (2 mmHg), and normal cardiac index (4.6 L/min/m2). We then detected an increased heart rate (from 95 to 138 beats/minute) and a gradual decrease in her cardiac index (down to 2.8 L/min/m2). Considering her low stroke volume index (20 mL/m2), we initially administered inotropes, but her heart failure continued to worsen. Thus, intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) was used for circulatory support. Cabergorine, which is a potent dopamine receptor agonist, was prescribed at a dose of 1 mg for the suppression of lactation, due to the high metabolic demands of lactation and breastfeeding. Bromocriptine was not administered for the treatment of PPCM because the available data were insufficient to recommend its routine use. Her hemodynamic parameters improved with these multidisciplinary treatments. Her heart failure gradually improved, allowing for the removal of IABP 9 days after the insertion and the discontinuation of inotropes 15 days after infusion. + +Her hemodynamic state remained stable after weaning from inotrope therapy, and she was transferred to the ward with the following medications: 1.25 mg/day enalapril, 5 mg/day carvedilol, 20 mg/day furosemide, and 25 mg/day spironolactone. Pre-discharge laboratory tests, chest radiography, and transthoracic echocardiography showed significant improvements: CTR, 50%; LVDd/LVDs, 49/40 mm; and LVEF, 42%. Her plasma BNP level normalized to 10.2 pg/mL. During hospitalization, we excluded other. An endomyocardial biopsy performed one month after the onset of PPCM revealed no infiltrative disorders and showed that the interstitial fibrosis and interstitial edema were mild, without inflammatory cell infiltration, myocardial necrosis, or degeneration. We therefore diagnosed the patient as having PPCM. She was discharged 45 days after admission with an NYHA class I.

Formal neuropsychological evaluation revealed profound anterograde amnesia, with additional impairments in cognitive flexibility, executive function, naming, and high order visual processing skills. Attention span, mental tracking, verbal abstract reasoning, complex auditory instructions, and visual spatial functions were preserved. From a psychiatric perspective, he developed symptoms of depression, which responded to treatment with sertraline. +In parallel with the decline in his memory, the patient also developed progressive autonomic neuropathy, with gastroparesis and severe postural hypotension. The autonomic dysfunction exceeded what might be expected from his diabetes mellitus, given his good glycemic control and the absence of other diabetic complications. His bladder dysfunction worsened and he required suprapubic catheter placement at the age of 61. Due to his multiple functional deficits, the patient became unable to work and is now completely reliant upon his wife for care. +Regarding his family history, the patient was born to Ashkenazi Jewish parents and there was no parental consanguinity.

A subsequent evaluation of the PV stenosis was recommended, but the patient failed to attend the appointment due to absence of symptoms. + +The patient presented 9 months ago at our ambulatory clinic with recurrent AF, and a new RF-based ablation was performed 6 months ago. During electroanatomic mapping, a persistent bidirectional block of the PVs was documented. Due to induction of atrial tachycardia and typical atrial flutter, anterior and posterior line ablations, and a cavotricuspid isthmus ablation were performed, with successful termination of the arrhythmias. High-grade stenosis of the left PVs was confirmed angiographically, and PV stenting was successfully completed 5 months before the current presentation by a multidisciplinary team. The prestenotic diameter of the left superior pulmonary vein (LSPV) and left inferior pulmonary vein (LIPV) was 6.5 and 7.0 mm, respectively. The 2 left PVs were dilated, and a 20- × 7-mm stent and a 20- × 10-mm stent were implanted in the LSPV and LIPV, respectively (Video 3).

Additional findings included dilatation of the truncus pulmonalis (diameter: 35 mm) and the right pulmonary artery (diameter: 28 mm). The scan concluded a dislocation of the stent from the LIPV, which could not be visualized in the thoracic scan, along with signs of pulmonary hypertension. + +A subsequent abdominal CT scan identified the displaced stent in the abdominal aorta, located just cranial to the aortoiliac bifurcation. + +Management +A multidisciplinary team consisting of electrophysiologists, radiologists, and interventional radiologists decided to implant an additional stent at the aortoiliac bifurcation to secure the displaced stent. Five days after presentation, an aortic digital subtraction angiography was performed, revealing the dislodged stent superior to the aortoiliac bifurcation and a moderate atherosclerotic stenosis of the right common iliac artery (CIA), by present peripheral artery disease. Due to the significant size mismatch between the diameter of the aorta, left CIA, and the displaced stent, overexpanding the stent in the abdominal aorta or repositioning the stent in the left CIA was deemed unfeasible. A double stenting procedure of the aortoiliac bifurcation using the kissing stents technique was performed. Two cobalt-chromium 9- × 58-mm stents (Dynetic, Biotronik) were implanted: the left one secured the displaced PV stent in place, whereas the right one treated the CIA stenosis. A Doppler ultrasound of the arteries of the lower limbs, performed on the first postprocedural day, showed no evidence of stenosis after stent implantation. The patient was discharged on rivaroxaban and clopidogrel therapy. + +Outcome and Follow-Up +Due to recurrent AF despite propafenone therapy, a new RF-based AF ablation was performed 4 months after presentation, including reisolation of the anterior line and completion of the box lesion. During the procedure, atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia was induced by programmed stimulation, and a slow-pathway ablation was performed. During the slow-pathway ablation, a transient third-degree atrioventricular block occurred. Follow-up revealed a persistent second-degree 2:1 atrioventricular block, and a 2-chamber pacemaker was successfully implanted. +Seven months after the presentation, the patient’s symptoms had significantly improved. A renewed ventilation-perfusion analysis, however, showed progressive worsening of the left lung perfusion. A new angiography of the LIPV, with subsequent stenting, was planned.

No attempts at cosmetic breast reconstruction with autologous tissue transfer or expander/implant placement were considered at that time. The patient's post-operative course was uneventful and she was discharged to home on post-operative day eight. +Gross pathologic evaluation of the specimen, which overall measured 14.5 × 13.3 × 6.4 cm in size, revealed a 5.2 cm tumor that was grossly invading the underlying attached skeletal muscle to a depth of about 1.2 cm . It could not be definitively determined whether the invasion of the underlying skeletal muscle involved only the superficial muscles resected (consisting of the inferior lateral portion of the left pectoralis major muscle, superior portion of the left abdominal oblique musculature, and anterior portion of the left serratus anterior muscle) or whether skeletal muscle invasion was to the level of the underlying intercostal muscles resected. However, both grossly and microscopically, there was no evidence of invasion into the bony ribs or underlying parietal pleura. Microscopic evaluation revealed a proliferation of relatively evenly spaced plump spindle cells arranged in intersecting fascicles and associated with mild to moderate amounts of collagen and occasional mitotic figures and demonstrated that the spindle cell proliferations invaded into the adjacent skeletal muscle . All surgical margins were negative. On immunohistochemical staining, the spindle cells were negative for S-100 protein, muscle actin (HHF-35), and cytokeratin AE1/AE3. On immunohistochemical staining, less than 5% of the spindle cells were positive for Mib1 (Ki-67).

Based on the clinical appearance and the geographical region of presentation, the patient was suspected of having erythema nodosum secondary to valley fever (coccidioidomycosis). The patient was prescribed fluconazole 200 mg daily, pending results from serological testing for coccidioidal immunoglobin M (IgM) and immunoglobin G (IgG). However, there was no improvement when the patient returned for a follow-up visit after 30 days of treatment. Additionally, the coccidioidal IgM and IgG tests were negative. Thus, treatment with fluconazole was discontinued and the patient was referred to a pulmonologist, who ordered tests to rule out sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, and thrombosis. + +The following results were obtained: angiotensin 1-converting enzyme levels (<5 U/L) (reference range: 9–67 U/L); QuantiFERON tuberculosis gold (interferon-gamma release assay [negative]); activated partial thromboplastin time (27 s); prothrombin time (9.6 s); international normalized ratio (0.9); and von Willebrand factor antigen (121 IU/dL). Based on these results, sarcoidosis, tuberculosis, and thrombosis were ruled out and no definitive diagnosis was made. The patient was then referred to a dermatologist, who suspected a diagnosis of LET based on clinical presentation. A punch biopsy of the skin lesion measuring 0.4 × 0.4 × 0.5 cm was taken from the right lateral thigh. + +The histopathology report on the punch biopsy was as follows: “superficial and deep perivascular and interstitial mononuclear inflammatory cell infiltrate with increased dermal mucin deposition. Periodic acid-Schiff staining was negative for fungal organisms; colloidal iron (mucin stain) showed increased dermal mucin deposition. There was no evidence of vasculitis or malignancy.” The histopathologist commented that these findings would be compatible with connective tissue disease/LET or an interstitial variant of granuloma annulare in an appropriate clinical setting. To arrive at a definitive diagnosis, the histopathologist advised to correlate clinical findings with serologic studies and to perform a direct immunofluorescence study to rule out morphea versus LET. Direct immunofluorescence study of a biopsy of the lesion, measuring 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.6 cm which was taken from the right lateral thigh, showed no specific immune deposits. Due to the high index of suspicion of LET, and its association with other autoimmune conditions, especially systemic lupus erythematosus, the patient was subsequently referred to a rheumatologist. + +The rheumatologist’s physical examination demonstrated a left thigh nodule, and the right thigh exhibited warmth, erythema, and tenderness to palpation. A full screening for autoimmune diseases was done, which included the following diagnostic studies: complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, c-antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody, p-antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody, anti-nuclear antibody, proteinase-3 antibody, beta-2-glycoprotein IgG/IgM/IgA, cardiolipin IgG/IgM/IgA, anti-Ro antibodies and anti-La antibodies, anti-Smith antibody, ribonucleoprotein antibody, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, complement C3 and complement C4, dilute Russell’s viper venom time, thyroid peroxidase antibody, double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid antibody enzyme immunoassay, cyclic citrulline peptide antibody IgG, rheumatoid factor, and thyroid-stimulating hormone. Remarkably, all diagnostic studies were within normal limits, except the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, which was elevated at 39 (reference range: <25 mm/h).

Because of the lymphoedema, the patient was first operated on at the age of 6 years, which had only a minor effect on overall condition of the patient. Later on in his life, he experienced multiple erysipelas and at the age of 47 a vascular tumour was detected in the setting of the lymphoedema as its complication. In another institution, a microscopically non-radical (R1) resection was performed and a diagnosis of angiosarcoma was concluded based on the histopathological evaluation of the tumour. The patient was not indicated for any adjuvant therapy, or re-resection. He was followed up and the first control PET/CT scan showed neither local relapse nor distant spread. Local progression was detected after one year of follow up and the patient was re-operated. Second R1 resection was performed and subsequent histopathological examination revealed an angiosarcoma again. This diagnosis was supported by an early second local relapse after a month. After that, the patient was reported to our sarcoma centre for further treatment. +During the clinical investigation, two purple skin affections in the popliteal area at the edges of the dermo-epidermal mesh skin graft were found . The left lower extremity showed chronic disfiguration as a result of multiple erysipelas and chronic lymphoedema. Scattered ecchymoses were also present. In the left gluteal area, multiple small nonspecific purple skin affections were visible. For staging purposes, whole-body PET/MR was performed and revealed multiple small subcutaneous nodules located in the left gluteal area, left calf and left hamstring area . Every nodule demonstrated low metabolic activity; however, the finding raised clinical suspicion for metastases of the previously diagnosed angiosarcoma. During the multidisciplinary tumour board, a bioptic confirmation of the process within gluteal space was indicated. Under local anaesthesia excision biopsy of the skin affection in the gluteal area was performed and sent for histopathological analysis. Within dermis, there was a cavernous vascular tumour (diameter 5 mm) detected, which consisted of dilated thin-walled lymphatic vessels containing papillary protrusions at the periphery. The papillary protrusions contained hyalinised cores in the centre and were covered with columnar endothelial cells with hobnail or even matchstick-like features. There were present neither mitoses nor severe nuclear atypia. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) showed diffuse positivity of the neoplastic cells for CD31, ERG and FLI-1. Tumour showed also focal D2-40 positivity within slit-like spaces at the periphery. IHC markers CD34, HHV-8, CK-KL1 and smooth muscle actin were negative. Based on the clinical background (localization within the dermis of the gluteal area), morphology and immunophenotype of tumorous cells, the suspicion for papillary intralymphatic angioendothelioma (PILA) was raised in contrast to the previous diagnosis . The expected structures of angiosarcoma were not identified within the sample. +To evaluate the uncertain undergoing process, the next multidisciplinary meeting led to an indication for excision of the recurrent focus and bioptic evaluation of the nodules of the calf and gluteal area. The operation was performed in February 2022 in form of an excision of two skin affections of the popliteal area (diameter 43 and 78 mm) and another biopsy of the tumour in the calf and gluteal area (diameter 20 mm and 10 mm). Histopathological examinations showed a new finding – the dermal-based vascular tumour with the retiform arrangement was detected, which consisted of branching vascular channels lined with hobnail-shaped bland endothelial cells. At some portions, papillary protrusions with hyalinised cores were found. There were neither mitoses nor nuclear atypia again. On the other hand, no association with the lymphatic vessels was found this time. IHC showed diffuse CD31 positivity and CD34 negativity of the neoplastic cells. Proliferation marker Ki-67 was low with positivity in approximately 10% of the cells within hot spots. Even though the histopathological finding was similar to the previous sample, due to the multifocality of the process, arborizing retiform architecture of the tumour and lacking association with lymphatic vessels in the current biopsy, the diagnosis of retiform haemangioendothelioma was made. +Because of the absence of angiosarcomatous structures, the original bioptic material was obtained from the first resection for the second opinion. But, the second look examination confirmed the former diagnosis of HG angiosarcoma: at the border between dermis and sub-cutis there was an infiltration of solid tumour consisting of elongated oval to spindle shaped cells showing marked nuclear atypia and numerous mitoses, including atypical forms. Erythrocytes filled slit-like spaced dissecting the solid areas were detected. IHC showed a similar immune profile of the neoplastic cells (CD31 positive; CD34 and D2-40 negative) and significantly higher proliferation (40–50%) based on the Ki-67 proliferation marker. Such a finding was consistent with the original diagnosis of HG angiosarcoma . However, at the base of the sample, small areas with a morphology of retiform haemangoendothelioma similar to the previous finding were spotted. +Based on the histopathological findings of three different vascular components resembling PILA, retiform haemangioendothelioma and HG angiosarcoma, the final diagnosis of CHE with HG angiosarcoma-like areas was established. +Recently it has been discovered that CHE can harbour a fusion gene YAP1::MAML2, especially among children with acral localisation of the tumour . We performed next-generation sequencing (NGS) to investigate this gene fusion and to exclude other entities which could mimic such lesion. Using Fusion Plex Sarcoma V2 panel (Archer) the fusions of the following genes were excluded: ALK, BCOR, BRAF, CAMTA1, CCNB3, CIC, CSF1, EGFR, EPC1, ERG, ESR1, ETV1, ETV4, ETV5, ETV6, EWSR1, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3, FOS, FOSB, FOXO1, FUS, GLI1, HMGA2, JAZF1, MBTD1, MDM2, MEAF6, MET, MGEA5, MKL2, NCOA1, NCOA2, NCOA3, NR4A3, NTRK1, NTRK2, NTRK3, NUTM1, PAX3, PDGFB, PDGFRA, PHF1, PLAG1, PRKCA, PRKCD, RAF1, RET, ROS1, SS18, STAT6, TAF15, TCF12, TFE3, TFG, USP6, VGLL2, YAP1, YWHAE). +In conclusion no gene fusion was identified, including YAP1::MAML2. However this finding does not exclude the diagnosis of CHE as for such gene fusion usually does not occur among adult patients outside acral localisations . Moreover, we also examined MYC amplification using fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH) as there is an evidence in literature that high-level MYC gene amplifications (at 8q24.21) occur in majority of post-irradiation and chronic lymphoedema-associated angiosarcomas . However MYC amplification was not found in this case, which further supports the diagnosis of CHE favouring it over angiosarcoma. +Even though CHE usually shows indolent behaviour, the multifocality of the process in the setting of chronic lymphoedema allowed radical surgical treatment, which would have to be hemipelvectomy in this case. Such a procedure was rejected by the patient. Therefore, the current course of action is the follow up with periodical PET/MR scans. In case of local progression of any nodule, the patient would be indicated for the extirpation of the lesion. However, no growth of the remaining lesions was detected in the follow-up so far and there has been no metastatic spread of the disease since the first detection of the tumour two years ago. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_344_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_344_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d5de1b78e1464c64cb889048c8afcf40176c8bc0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_344_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,18 @@ +66-years-old male. +A sudden onset of the right hemiplegia and dysarthria. +Nothing significant. +Smoked 30 cigarettes/day for 45 years. +At 7:30 a.m. while driving, the patient suddenly experienced right hemiplegia and dysarthria and was rushed to our hospital. +Right facial paralysis, dysarthria, right upper extremity paralysis, right upper and lower extremity paresthesia, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score 6/42. +Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) showed slightly high signal areas in the left putamen, corona radiata, and part of the middle cerebral artery region.

She was of Asian descent, born in Thailand, and lived in the Netherlands for approximately 20 years. For the largest part of her life, she was a stay-at-home mother of two children and had no known occupational exposure to toxins or chemicals. She had a negative family history for pulmonary disease or kidney diseases, never smoked, and consumed no alcohol. She was analyzed for lung cancer after a large lung mass was seen on a chest X-ray carried out for complaints of dyspnea . The fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) with low-dose computed tomography (CT) scan showed an FDG-avid mass in the left lower quadrant of 11 × 6.8 cm with multiple small FDG-avid lesions in all lung quadrants, pathological lymphadenopathy subcarinal in the hili and in the mediastinum, and multiple FDG-avid liver and bone lesions all suspected of being metastases.

Her temperature was 36.1 °C (97 °F). Heart auscultation revealed normal hearts sounds without murmurs. Lung auscultation revealed sharpened breath sounds, but no crackles or rhonchi. Examination of the abdomen showed no visible pathology, normal bowel sounds, and no signs of acute abdominal or surgical pathology. Basic neurological examination revealed no impaired mental status, no cranial nerve pathology, normal gait and coordination, and no abnormalities on motor and sensory examination. Further physical examination revealed no other abnormalities. A chest X-ray showed a reduction of the lung cancer mass compared with the initial staging imaging. Laboratory evaluation revealed a creatinine level of 424 µmol/L (4.79 mg/dL; eGFR 8 mL/min/1.73 m2), and a urea level of 15.3 mmol/L (91.8 mg/dL). Other lab results showed anemia (hemoglobin 6.6 mmol/L, 10.6 g/dL), thrombocytosis (691 × 109/L), and leukocytosis (14.9 × 109/L). She had hyponatremia (127 mmol/L; 127 mEq/L), hyperkalemia (6.0 mmol/L, 6 mEq/L), and hypercalcemia (2.61 mmol/L, 10.46 mg/dL) that was normal when corrected for albumin (31 g/L, 3.1 g/dL).

For nausea, metoclopramide 10 mg tablets were started, taken at the patient’s discretion with a maximum of three times daily. Because of constipation, macrogol and lactulose were started, and during the hospital admission a sodium phosphate enema was administered. Temazepam 10 mg was used at the patient’s discretion before sleeping, with a maximum of once daily. Nadroparin 2850 IU was started to prevent venous thromboembolisms. During the admission, insulin aspart was given for hyperglycemia when necessary (0–10 IE based on glucose levels and intake). The patient’s diuresis during the first 24 hours was 1860 mL, which further suggested tubulopathy as a possible cause of her acute kidney injury. After 2 days of fluid therapy, there was no improvement of renal function, and a biopsy was performed.

The left coronary ostium was located in the middle of the left aortic sinus. Although the course of the right coronary artery was normal, the right coronary artery ostium was located slightly below the sinotubular junction and in close proximity to the commissure between the right coronary cusp and one of the two non-coronary cusps . After excision of all cusps, the annular stitches were placed in a non-everting mattress fashion with pledgets on the ventricular side, and three stitches near the right coronary ostium were transitioned to the subannular ventricular myocardium to maintain the distance from the ostium . We decided to use a biologic prosthesis, according to the patients’ desire. A 25-mm prosthetic sizer was able to pass through the annulus but mild resistance was noted. We selected a 23-mm Inspiris Resillia biologic prosthesis (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California, United States of America), because an oversized prosthetic valve could potentially compress the right coronary ostium. In addition to AVR, pulmonary vein isolation using AtriCure (AtriCure, Mason, OH, USA) and left atrial appendage closure using AtriClip (AtriCure) was performed for atrial fibrillation. +The patient tolerated the procedure adequately, and postoperative echocardiography revealed normal prosthetic valve function without paravalvular leakage. Except for recurrent atrial fibrillation, the postoperative course was uneventful. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 17. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_374_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_374_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3453821918b3e4c895d7877f5ea7c1c45f17cc0d --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_374_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 71-year-old man who suffered from CLL was admitted to our hospital on June 23th, 2020 due to fever. In 2001, he was admitted to a hospital due to submaxillary mass. On physical examination, multiple enlarged lymph nodes of the bilateral jaw bone were touched with nontender and of medium in quality, among which the largest lymph node was about 1.0×1.5 cm2. Routine blood results showed white blood cell (WBC) of 148.52×109/L, lymphocyte ratio of 81.5%, hemoglobin of 101 g/L and platelet of 68×109/L. Bone marrow smear revealed active hyperplasia of nucleated cells in bone marrow and increased proportion of lymphocytes, including mature lymphocytes (91%) and immature lymphocytes (2.5%). Likewise, peripheral blood films also suggested significantly augmented proportion of lymphocytes, with 91% of mature lymphocytes and 3% of immature lymphocytes, which was consistent with the bone marrow smear of CLL. Subsequently, the patient was subjected to bone marrow biopsy. Results indicated active bone marrow hyperplasia and nodular or patchy proliferation of mature lymphocytes, without granulocyte, erythrocyte and megakaryocyte, as well as germinal center and macrocell transformation. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping showed CD5(+)81%, CD19(+)70%, CD20(+)25% and CD22(+)8%. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with CLL at Binet C stage and was given 4 courses of combination therapy of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (R-CHOP). After discharge, he received daily oral chlorambucil 2 mg for a long time, and the disease was controlled. +On May 20th, 2020, the patient revisited the hospital. The bone marrow smear still conformed to CLL, and the bone marrow biopsy indicated that tumor cells were scattered or clustered (10–20%). Flow cytometric immunophenotyping performed on the peripheral blood showed that abnormal cell population accounted for 87.16% of nuclear cells, expressing CD19, CD23, CD5, CD200 and CD22, partially expressed CD20, CD123 and CD11c, and weakly expressing CD81 and CD43, suggesting CLL/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) phenotype. The karyotype of the chromosome was 45,X,-Y[4]/47,XY,+12[6]/46,XY[15]. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) showed negative IGH/BCL2, ATM/CEP11, RB-1, CCND1/IGH, CEP12 and P53/CE P17. The second-generation sequencing showed that Y220C and I195F mutations in exon 6 of TP53 mutation were positive, with a mutation rate of 4.1% and 1.5%, respectively. Somatically mutated monoclonal IGHV4-34 gene rearrangement was demonstrated, with 6.7% of mutation rate. Taken together, these findings indicated that this patient was diagnosed with RaiIII-phase CLL at Binet stage C, with IgHV and TP53 mutation. Oral ibrutinib tablet 420 mg was given once a day. No increase in hemoglobin was observed in blood routine monitoring during the oral administration of ibrutinib, and intermittent transfusion for the treatment was conducted in our hospital. +On June 23th, 2020, the patient was referred to our hospital when he presented with fever, fatigue and anorexia. On admission, the physical examination revealed anemia, a body temperature of 37.9°C, pulse rate of 102/min, breathing rate of 20 times/min and blood pressure of 120/67 mmHg, without obvious abnormalities in the heart and lungs. There were enlarged lymph nodes in the bilateral neck and groin, with the most being 2×3 cm2, as well as splenomegaly (line A and B of 5 cm, line A and C of 6 cm, line D and V of −6 cm) with small-medium in size, nontender and pitting edema of lower limbs. Routine blood results showed WBC of 59.16×109/L, lymphocyte count of 121.04×109/L, hemoglobin of 89 g/L and neutrophile granulocyte of 17.78×109/L. Bone marrow smear indicated active bone marrow hyperplasia, and we observed 46.5% of protogranulocytes (small and unequal in size and some cytoplasm containing a few azurophilic granules), many basophilic erythroblast, megakaryocytes and small megakaryocytes, but little immature lymphocytes . The positive rate of POX staining was about 65%, indicating CLL accompanied by AML-M2 . As shown in , abnormal myeloid primordial cells were found in the specimens, accounting for 32.86% of the nuclear cells, which was in line with AML phenotype. In addition to expressing myeloid antigens, CD56-positive lymphocytes were also noticed, which could be used as a monitoring indicator for minor residual disease. A cluster of abnormal B lymphocytes with small forward scatter (FSC) intensity and side scatter (SSC) intensity was observed in the specimen of the patients, and the phenotype of the cluster of cells was consistent with CLL/SLL.

He was mildly obese, described himself as quite heathy, and had never been admitted to a hospital previously. He reported no chronic medical history, such as primary hypertension, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, an impaired immune system, malignancies, liver cirrhosis, renal failure, or hemodialysis. He also reported no history of infectious disease, such as tuberculosis, any types of hepatitis, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). His medical history revealed no trauma, blood transfusion, other surgical procedures, or other serious event. He had not lived in an epidemic area and had no contact history of radioactive exposure. He denied any family history of inherited diseases. He usually did not smoke tobacco or consume alcohol and had no other unhealthy behaviors. He was a business executive and he often traveled for business. +His blood pressure at admission was 99/50 mmHg, pulse rate was 102 beats per minutes, and his respiratory rate was 21 breaths per minute. On examination, his mucous membrane was dry and his conjunctivae were pale. No positive signs were found during neurological, cardiopulmonary, and abdominal examinations. There was no pain around the kidney area with percussion or tenderness along the bilateral ureteral approach. +A specialized examination revealed that the wounds were located on his right gluteal and were approximately 40 cm × 35 cm in size with a darkened appearance. The margins of the wounds were 2 cm above the bottom of iliac crest, inferior to the superior segment of back side of his thigh, 3 cm interior of the anal cleft, and external to the lateral thigh (as shown in Fig. ). The wound had hemorrhaged and contained scattered metallic foreign bodies. Most of his gluteus maximus muscle was injured and the motion of his right hip joint was limited. +In addition, related laboratory examinations were conducted. His complete blood count values were as follows: white blood cell count of 10,940 cells/uL, red blood cell count of 3,250,000 cells/uL, hemoglobin of 9.8 g/dL, and platelet count of 153,000 cells/uL. D-Dimer was 5678μg/L. His total protein was 45.7 g/L, among which the albumin and globulin content were 21 g/L and 24.7 g/L, respectively. The results of serology for renal function were normal. Blood and aerobic and anaerobic bacterial cultures were performed. Microorganisms were not found in the blood cultures. The secretions from injured tissue revealed that a little of the Gram-positive bacteria, Bacillus subtilis, was detected. A diagnosis of explosion injury in left gluteal region and hemorrhagic shock was made. +He underwent aggressive fluid administration, hemodynamic support, and intravenously administered antibiotic therapy. Debridement of his right gluteal was carried out 6 hours after the explosion under general anesthesia. Then, the wound was sutured with VSD and adhesive membrane, which finally was connected to negative pressure drainage equipment. During the operation, 800 ml erythrocytes and 400 ml plasma were infused into our patient. Three days after the first operation, he underwent a second operation. The necrotic muscles were excised and then the wound was closed with interrupted suture to shorten the defect to 12 cm × 40 cm (as shown in Fig. ).

The skin around the wound was healthy, with only mild edema and migrated to the wound margins. The pinch test demonstrated that the skin had some mobility, which indicated that it could be sufficiently stretched. Under general anesthesia, the skin margins were minimally free to facilitate the insertion of intradermal needles on both sides of the wound. The wound itself was left undisturbed. Three SSDs (Life Medical Sciences, Inc., Princeton, NJ) were inspected every few hours. The healthy skin was stretched for 4 minutes, followed by 1 minute of relaxation. After stress relaxation had occurred, the tension was adjusted to 3 kg, as indicated by the tension gauge (as shown in Fig. ). +This procedure was repeated five times during the operation until the skin reached approximation to the wound margins. Then, the devices and the intradermal needles were removed from our patient. During this process, the granulation tissues looked good, the wound was thoroughly irrigated, and the stretched skin margins were closed with interrupted suturing to reduce the size of the defect to 5 cm × 38 cm (as shown in Fig. ). After stretching treatment, the VSD was applied again to close the wound as before. +After 9 days, the size of the wound had decreased to 4.5 cm × 35 cm (as shown in Fig. ). The SSD was then applied again as before. During the last operation, the wound was thoroughly irrigated, and the stretched skin margins were closed with interrupted suturing (as shown in Fig. ). Eighteen days after this operation, there were only two small wounds that were approximately 1.0 cm × 0.8 cm without edema or inflammation. The local granulation was healthy (as shown in Fig. ). At that time, our patient was ambulatory. Although he had been in hospital for over 1 month, there was no evidence of damage to the skin margins.

The tendon reflex of both upper limbs was normal and symmetrical. The knee reflex and Achilles tendon reflex were absent, and the plantar reflexes were flexor. There were atrophy of the distal muscles of upper and lower limbs, per cavus, claw-like hands, and a steppage gait. Sensory examinations were normal. No signs of neuromyotonia were observed. +Intramuscular injection of neostigmine 1 mg significantly improved her ptosis and diplopia.

Computed tomography of the chest showed no parenchymal abnormalities. The result of lumbar puncture cerebrospinal fluid examination was normal. Brain and spine MRI were not done, since there were no neuropsychiatric symptoms. Electromyographic studies revealed a chronic motor axonal neuropathy, without neuromyotonic or myokymic discharges . Electromyography (EMG) showed complex repetitive discharges (CRD) in the right biceps brachii, left quadriceps femoris, left anterior tibialis muscle, T12 paraspinal muscle. Decremental CMAP responses in low frequency RNS were recorded in the right deltoid muscle and the left trapezius muscle, and were not observed in the left deltoid muscle, left abductor digiti minimi muscle, right abductor pollicis brevis, and right trapezius. The magnitude of decrement was 27.4% in the right deltoid muscle and 17.7% in the left trapezius muscle respectively. The diagnosis of MG was established, and a concomitant hereditary motor axonal neuropathy was also suspected.

At 67 years of age, she developed orthostatic hypotension and was treated sequentially with fluids, compression stockings, and midodrine. Her disease slowly progressed over the next three years, and L-dopa dosage was increased to 600 mg/day. At 70 years of age, she had a mild head trauma with loss of consciousness. One month later, she developed acute-onset lateral flexion of her trunk to the left side while standing, and she was admitted to our hospital. On admission, her neurological examinations revealed slight weakness of her left upper and lower extremities in both proximal and distal muscles, as indicated by her Medical Research Council (MRC) scale score of 5-/5. She showed a sustained 10.1°lateral flexion of her trunk to the left side on standing . This posture was alleviated in the supine position. Her Pisa angle was assessed using NeuroPostureApp© . Her right muscle strength was normal. Her sensory systems were normal and no cerebellar signs were detected. Her deep tendon reflexes were normal and her plantar reflex was flexor bilaterally. Her presurgical brain computed tomography (CT) showed CSDH in the right hemisphere resulting in a marked compression of the hemisphere . She was immediately referred to the neurosurgical department of our hospital and the subdural hematoma was successfully evacuated by single-burr-hole drainage. Her brain CT carried out four days after the operation showed improvement of her subdural hematoma . Seven days after her operation, her PS disappeared and she fully recovered to her preoperative level of function without any sequelae such as headaches and cognitive impairment caused by her CSDH. She is still being follow-up. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_482_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_482_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..23533a6701f031e5f20543e3e7e4e88e8acb1eba --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_482_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A seven year old girl presented with a lump in the right lateral forehead of two weeks duration.

The oral post-nitrate images clearly demonstrated an absence of uptake of 99mTc-tetrofosmin in the lateral and infero-lateral wall ; the LVEF was 31%. This absence of tracer uptake after the nitrate administration clearly indicated the presence of non-viable myocardium . The same patient underwent cardiac MRI using a clinical 1.5-T Gyroscan ACS-NT MRI scanner (Philips Medical System, Eindhoven, The Netherlands). The scan was analysed according to: a) the left ventricular function (sequences balanced-echo cine MRI) and b) the presence of scar tissue with delayed-enhancement (DE) images. Delayed sequences were obtained approximately 12 minutes after intravenous injection of 0.2 mmol/kg gadolinium diethyltriaminepentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA) using a fast field echo sequence (slice thickness 8 mm, FOV 360 mm, flip angle 15°, TE 1.3 ms, TR 4.1 ms). Delayed enhancement images were displayed with a grey scale to optimally show normal myocardium (dark) and the region of delayed-enhancement myocardium (bright). The akinesia of the infero-apical left ventricular segment and the diskinesia of the lateral wall emerged . The LVEF was calculated as 36%; a bilateral pleural effusion was also present. The DE distribution was transmural with a dilatation of the lateral wall that appeared like an aneurysm. Necrotic myocardium usually accumulates and retains gadolinium-based contrast material for 10 or more minutes after the agent has been administered . Considering the results of myocardial SPECT and MRI together, coronary angiography was performed on the fourth day and occlusion of left circumflex coronary artery was identified. As a result of the clinical and image data, medical therapy was continued. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_579_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_579_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..648d2a10fc56ad24a740c6db40f624ac657ca851 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_579_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 78-year-old woman presented to our department with borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma involving the SMA nerve plexus .

On POD 14, she developed sudden fever with chills. The white blood cell count was 3,100 μ/L with 89% neutrophils, and the serum C-reactive protein level was 3.43 mg/dL. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) showed intrahepatic segmental portal vein thrombosis without macroscopic abscesses or distinct infectious signs, including pancreatic fistula or bile fistula . After blood specimens were obtained for culture, tazobactam/piperacillin was administered. Since the blood cultures were positive for Enterococcus faecium, tazobactam/piperacillin was switched to vancomycin. We started novel oral anticoagulants for portal vein thrombosis on the day of diagnosis. When antithrombin III activity decreased, we added it to the drug regimen. On POD 19, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae were recovered from the blood cultures, and meropenem was additionally administered. On POD 27, the antimicrobial treatment regimen was switched to levofloxacin based on the microbiological results. On POD 29, intrahepatic portal thrombosis had decreased, and the patient was discharged on POD 37. On POD 54, the patient presented with melena and was hospitalized for gastrointestinal endoscopy. On POD 55, she experienced cardiopulmonary arrest caused by hemorrhagic shock due to melena. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation was successfully performed. CECT showed a ruptured SMA aneurysm and arterio-intestinal fistula . Blood was lost into the reconstructed jejunal limb in the main SMA. No major intraabdominal abscess due to pancreatic leakage or biliary fistula was observed. The white blood cell count was 5,400 μ/L with 86.1% neutrophils, and the serum C-reactive protein level was 2.98 mg/dL. Thus, she was diagnosed with a ruptured aneurysm of the SMA. Since the laparotomic approach seemed difficult after the PD operation with resection of the SMA nerve plexus, we selected a covered stent as the preferred treatment option. Repair using the covered stent was performed by the cardiology team. This treatment successfully stopped the intestinal bleeding, and the patient recovered from hemorrhagic shock . E. coli was isolated from arterial blood cultures during angiography. Finally, she was diagnosed with a ruptured infected aneurysm of the SMA. After a 6-week course of intravenous antibiotic therapy, she was switched to long-term oral amoxicillin and clavulanic acid and was discharged on POD 100. There was no recurrence of bleeding at the 4-month follow-up, and the stent was patent in all subsequent CECT scans.

The tumor in the right adrenal gland was followed up because there was no clear malignant finding on CT. On the day before surgery, 5100 mL of body fluid was removed by hemodialysis. Propofol and remifentanil were used for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia. After tracheal intubation, periodic systolic blood pressure fluctuations within the range of 70–260 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure fluctuations within the range of 40–90 mmHg, and heart rate of 80–110 beats/min were observed at intervals of approximately 8 min . Intermittent and continuous administration of nicardipine was not effective for suppressing the fluctuation, which lasted for approximately 3 h and disappeared spontaneously after completion of laparoscopic surgery.

At the emergency room the patient presented with severe shortness of breath and fever of 39 °C. Throat inspection revealed swelling and greyish membranes. The patient deteriorated quickly with hypoxia and hypercapnia. He was intubated and put under ventilator support. Bronchoscopy showed greyish membranous plaques covering the larger part of the bronchus and partly occluding the left major bronchus. Serial X-rays showed progressive atelectasis of the left lung . The membranes could mechanically be removed from its underlying layer and repeated bronchoscopies with lavage were performed. +Culture specimens were sent from larynx and bronchoscopy specimens as well as from a 1 cm2 skin ulceration. Due to suspicion of diphtheria, Loeffler’s tellurite media was used for culture. On day four from admission, the results from cultures showed growth of toxin producing C. diphtheriae, subsequently typed to non-gravis, both from the ulcer and from the respiratory tract. Serologies for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C and syphilis returned negative, as well as urine antigen tests for Streptococcus pneumoniae and Legionella pneumophila. The diphtheria strain was susceptible to both cefotaxime and erythromycin, which the patient was receiving since admission. It was in this situation judged too late for administration of DAT in relation to possible side effects and the duration of symptoms, and the patient was never administered this treatment. In the following weeks (day 5–14), the patient showed signs of improvement in infection control with decreasing C-reactive protein (CRP) and was afebrile, however the left lung remained deflated. The patient was under ventilator support for one month through tracheostomy performed on day seven. The prolonged time in ventilator was due to inability to recruit the left lung, despite repeated bronchoscopy and cleaning of greyish debris from the airways. A pleural catheter was also placed in the left inter pleural space with clearance of about one liter of transudative fluid. Bacterial cultures from the pleural fluid were negative. +Between day 14 and 16 the patient had changes in the electrocardiogram with T-wave inversions and short periods of ventricular tachycardia as well as elevated cardiac enzymes that resolved spontaneously .

However, the level of AST was elevated again at 980 U/L on day 7. In addition to the ultrasonographic findings, perivesical fluid accumulation and an edematous gallbladder wall (4 mm) had appeared . There were no stones in the gallbladder. In addition, there were no other causes of acalculous cholecystitis. Pneumonia, acute pancreatitis, hepatic or subphrenic abscess, and right pyelonephritis were considered for the possible causes but were excluded from the diagnosis due to the fact that no evidence was shown on ultrasonographic findings, urinalysis, and chest X-ray. No antibiotics were administered for the cholecystitis. From day 9, the levels of transaminase and bilirubin began to decline even without the use of antibiotics. Blood culture was negative, and the procalcitonin level was within the normal range. Based on these findings, we assessed the cholecystitis was not caused by bacterial infection and decided not to administer any antibiotics. The edematous wall showed significant improvement on day 11 and had returned to normal by day 14. Since the patient did not complain of abdominal pain and the findings were gradually being recovered, it was not necessary to intervene surgically. The patient was discharged on day 16 because all of the symptoms had disappeared. +The serum of the patient was tested to identify the genotype of the HEV at the Osaka Prefectural Institute of Public Health, and it was identified to be HEV genotype 1, OSN2015-5 . It was confirmed by using SuperScript III-one step RT-PCR system with Platinum Taq (Invitrogen). +From this case, two important clinical discoveries were made: (1) HEV can cause acalculous cholecystitis as an extrahepatic manifestation, and (2) it can recover without any antibiotics. +First, HEV can cause acalculous cholecystitis as an extrahepatic symptom. It has been reported that HEV can cause pancreatitis, arthropathy, aplastic anemia, and Guillain-Barre syndrome as extrahepatic symptoms [, ]; however, acalculous cholecystitis has not been previously reported as a symptom of HEV. We performed a search of the MEDLINE database for the terms ‘cholecystitis’ and ‘viral hepatitis E’. Three hits were found, but the contexts were unrelated to cholecystitis due to HEV. Hepatitis A virus infection is known to cause acalculous cholecystitis as a rare complication . Although further investigations of a larger number of cases are needed to clarify the matter, it is presumed that hepatitis A virus invades the endothelial cells of the gallbladder and bile duct and induces cell-mediated immunity [, ]. However, this is the first case report of acalculous cholecystitis as an extrahepatic manifestation of HEV. +Second, the acalculous cholecystitis due to HEV infection could recover without any antibiotics. On the seventh day after admission, the level of serum AST was increased, and ultrasonography of the abdomen detected a thickened gallbladder wall without calculi and perivesical fluid accumulation; these met the criteria for acalculous cholecystitis . In general, the treatment options for acalculous cholecystitis are antibiotics, drainage, and/or operation. However, none of them were necessary in this case, and the patient recovered completely. According to the clinical course, the cholecystitis was secondary to HEV infection and recovered as the HEV infection resolved. +Humans can be infected by four different genotypes of HEV: genotypes 1, 2, 3, and 4. HEV genotypes 1 and 2 are common and restricted to human . Individuals may become infected with HEV genotypes 1 and 2 from drinking contaminated water, so it was suspected that this patient became infected with HEV from drinking tap water in India. Genotype 1 is prevalent in the Indian subcontinent, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa . The latent period of HEV infection is approximately 6 to 8 weeks . Based on the travel history of the patient, it is possible that she became infected with HEV while she was in India. HEV infection does not affect only developing countries. HEV genotypes 3 and 4 are found in some industrialized countries. In addition, zoonotic transmission to humans is possible with HEV genotypes 3 and 4 . Occasional foodborne outbreaks from the consumption of undercooked meat contaminated with HEV have occurred in Europe, North America, Japan, and New Zealand . Among the different genotypes, genotype 1 HEV infection can cause the most serious disease . As such, it is important to determine the genotype of the HEV infecting a patient to know the prognosis and to identify the source of the infection. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_758_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_758_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d4b11d93c63eaadae185b0cb94911b152cfe7bdc --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_758_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +We present a 48-year-old patient, to whom a transrectal biopsy of the prostate gland was performed in 2005 due to increased level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to 597 ng/ml, and the pathohistological (PH) finding revealed an adenocarcinoma of the prostate with the Gleason score 7 (4A+3B) and 80% tumor volume.

He was treated with proton-beam therapy to a dose of 70 Cobalt Gray Equivalent, in five fractions, over 10 days. In 2017, the patient was in a motor vehicle accident, which resulted in rupture of his left globe. He underwent enucleation of the left globe and was found to have recurrent melanoma. The patient healed well from surgery and a left eye prosthesis was fitted. However, over the next 9 months the patient reported that the prosthesis became progressively displaced and increasingly painful to wear. A diagnostic CT revealed a heterogeneous lobular soft tissue mass in the anterior and inferior left orbit measuring 27.0 × 26.0 × 19.0 mm. He underwent salvage left orbital exenteration in March 2018. Surgical pathology confirmed multiple recurrent melanoma with a positive inferior-medial surgical margin. Restaging imaging revealed no evidence of metastatic disease and he was referred for consideration of re-irradiation. +Written informed consent was obtained from the patient for publication of this case report and accompanying images. +An applicator for HDR brachytherapy was designed in the AutoCAD Inventor Suite (Autodesk, San Rafael, CA) based on the latest diagnostic CT. DICOM structures were converted into stereolithography files using 3DSlicer . The primary contours of interest were the patient’s surface and the PTV. The patient surface was used to generate an applicator with a flush fit against the left orbital cavity and a protruding horizontal surface 10.0 mm anteriorly from the supraorbital ridge. Support wings with a thickness of 5.0 mm were designed to extend superiorly and inferiorly by 15.0 mm and laterally by 60.0 mm. The wings were designed to be flush against the patient’s skin in order to provide a stable and reproducible fit. +The involved left orbital surfaces, including the residual mucosa and soft tissue abutting the mass found on pre-operative imaging and the sites with positive margins, were contoured as the clinical target volume (CTV; Volume ~ 4.0 cm3) and radially expanded by 2.0 mm to generate a PTV. The PTV was used to devise channels that allowed for access and sufficient coverage of the target with the Ir-192 HDR source. The channels were constructed to fit an endobronchial HDR source guide tube with an outer diameter of 2.0 mm (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA). While considering the size of the orbital cavity and the distance of the PTV to the cavity surface, it was found that sufficient target access would be provided when all channels were tilted 15° toward the patient’s right and 10° superiorly. For the most superior channel, patient anatomy did not allow for the 10° tilt. Under these constraints, the applicator was designed with 16 channels of varying length, ranging from 46.0 mm to 63.0 mm. The channels were organized in two rectilinear groups to minimize applicator size. The distance between the centers of the channels in each group was 9.0 mm. The tip of the channels, corresponding to the location of the first possible dwell position, was chosen to be at 5.0 mm from the surface of the orbital cavity. Figure shows the applicator geometry overlaid on patient anatomy. The material for printing the applicator, an acrylic photopolymer (Polymerized TangoPlus and Agilus30 Family, Stratasys Ltd., Eden Prairie, MN), was selected based on similarity with the biomechanical properties of human skin , specifically using tensile strength and shore hardness. Note that these materials are not approved per the International Standard ISO-10993-1 as a biocompatible material. The applicator was covered in a sterile wrap to prevent any contact with patient skin. Given the flexibility of this material, a solid sheath with a thickness of 2.0 mm was designed as an outer support-wall for each channel to prevent bending or accidental puncturing of the surface of the applicator. The assembly was created using a J750 PolyJet 3D printer (Stratasys Ltd., Eden Prairie, MN) which allows for simultaneous printing of materials with varying physical properties. The primary applicator was designed as 80/20% mixing of polymers in the Agilus30/TangoPlus family; the sheath was 80/20% mixing of TangoPlus/Agilus30. Print time was approximately 20 h, while cost was approximately 400$. Figure presents the design of the applicator and a model of the channel sheath. Photographs of the final 3D printed applicator are provided in the appendix Figure A. Prior to use in the patient, the applicator was imaged with a helical CT scanner (120kVp, 1.0 mm3 isotropic voxels). The mean Hounsfield unit (HU) values were measured in a large region-of-interest in the applicator and found to be (mean ± std.dev.) 85 ± 11 HU, comparable to tissue-equivalent media. While previous research has highlighted the limitations of HU values in modeling the radiation interactions of 3D printed materials , the work of Baltz et al. has shown Agilus to be a reasonable tissue equivalent material based on CT and percent depth dose measurements . +At the time of treatment simulation, the patient was immobilized supine with a custom thermoplastic mask and head holder. Serial axial CT images were obtained for treatment planning after placing the patient-specific applicator, covered in a plastic and sterile latex wrap, inside the left orbital cavity and securing it using self-adherent wrap. Figure A in the appendix shows the applicator inside the orbit at time of CT simulation. Treatment planning and dose calculation were performed in the Brachytherapy Planning module of Eclipse (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA) based on the AAPM TG-43 formalism, using Ir-192 at a nominal source strength of 10 Ci. The planned prescription was 3400 cGy, to be delivered in 10 fractions, twice daily, over five consecutive days . Figure shows the dose-volume histogram for the PTV, orbit bones, right eye, right lens, and brain. +An end-to-end dosimetric test was designed to determine feasibility for clinical use. Two calibrated pairs of optically stimulated luminesce dosimeters (OSLDs) were firmly placed on the surface of the applicator at two locations representing dose to PTV and another high-resolution CT was acquired. The clinical HDR plan was transferred to the CT containing the OSLDs in order to calculate the mean dose to the dosimeters. Figure A shows the registration between the CT of the applicator and the patient HDR plan. The applicator was then immersed in a water-filled container to mimic scattering conditions, and the clinical HDR plan was delivered. In the two sampled positions on the surface of the applicator, the mean difference in measured and calculated dose was 12% and 18%. For this setup, the standard error of the mean is equal to 50% of the standard deviation. This dose difference is in the range of published uncertainties for in vivo dosimetry in HDR brachytherapy [, ]. Finally, all ten fractions of the clinical HDR plan were consecutively delivered, amounting to a dose of at least 300 Gy to the surface of the applicator, and the applicator was monitored for structural damage. No damage was found over the course of 2 weeks. +A second CT simulation scan was obtained without the brachytherapy applicator for the purpose of generating an alternative stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) plan. The orbital air density was assigned to water (i.e., 0 HU) in the treatment planning system to simulate a fluid filled cavity. A 4-arc volumetric modulated arc therapy plan with 6MV photons, utilizing superiorly oriented non-coplanar beams to avoid entry or exit into the contralateral eye, was created in Eclipse version 13.6 (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA). The prescription dose was 2500 cGy, in 5 daily fractions. +Although most of the previously irradiated soft tissue was resected, the patient was consented for osteoradionecrosis and non-healing wounds. He was treated with SBRT instead of brachytherapy because the 3D printed material was not approved for biocompatibility and because filling the orbital cavity with sterile saline provided a reproducible bolus with fewer air gaps. While the surface of the applicator was generally flush with the orbit, we observe a maximum airgap of approximately 8.0 mm, comparable to previously published values . This is illustrated in Figure A in the appendix which shows two slices from the CT of the patient fitted with the applicator. To confirm consistency with treatment planning, daily cone-beam CT was performed after filling the orbit with sterile saline. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_784_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_784_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..c0558a8a9fa2f07a9d6b185fef01a62b4492daa5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_784_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 20-year-old man with a 1-year history of diabetes mellitus was admitted to the Endocrinology Clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University.

The dilated CBD was dissected and then taping was performed. After imaging the lower bile duct and confirming that the bile duct on the side of the pancreas was sufficiently detached, the lower bile duct was clipped and transected. Subsequently, after dissection and transection of the cystic duct, the hepatic duct just above the dilated common hepatic duct was transected. The jejunum was then extracted from the umbilical wound, and Roux-en Y jejunojejunostomy was performed.

However the right pulmonary artery was totally defected. Swan–Ganz catheter was unable to pass the main branch of the right pulmonary artery. Additionally, because of the absence of breath sounds on auscultation in the left lung field, bronchoscopy was performed and complete compression of the left main bronchus was noted .

We discontinued the operation and transferred the patient to the intensive care unit. After the patient regained consciousness from anesthesia, his hemodynamic collapse was gradually improved, and weaning of PCPS was achieved without use of inotropes. Besides, bronchoscopy revealed that occlusion of the left main bronchus disappeared, and he was successfully extubated. Fortunately, he recovered the next day without neurological deficit. At the second surgery, PCPS was initiated with local anesthesia before general anesthesia and intubation. We denuded the right femoral vein and artery, and introduced cannulas for PCPS. General anesthesia was conducted carefully. We also performed bronchoscopy after intubation and found out that the left main bronchus was almost occluded in much the same way as the prior operation. However, his oxygen saturation was not decreased. At this time, PCPS was thought to be useful to prevent from hypoxia and hemodynamic collapse.

Her medical history was collected via a detailed inquiry. More than 10 years ago, the patient was sexually discriminated against by her family and had a bad relationship with her parents. She gradually became unhappy, self-abased and nervous, and began to pull out her hair repeatedly and uncontrollably, which was more obvious when she was in a bad mood. After about 2 years of systematic CBT and pharmacotherapy, she still had no improvement. Nearly a year ago, the condition worsened; she was upset, unhappy and was crying often. Additionally, the hair pulling phenomenon worsened, and she even used nail clippers to pull out the hair follicles on her head, and she had to resort to constantly wearing a wig to cover up the local hair loss. Furthermore, patients encountering increased pressure will exhibit intermittent binge eating attacks: she will eat much more food than usual in a short time, felt unable to control eating. When this began, she will eat much faster than normal, and until she felt uncomfortably full and got a feeling of guilty after eating, about two to three times a week, but no emetic, diuresis or diarrhea behavior and resulted in a significant increase in weight gain.

To date there are no reports of AS associated with acute ocular inflammation. MEWDS is a unilateral inflammatory disease, which usually resolves spontaneously, with full recovery . Here we describe a patient with ASs, who was diagnosed with coincident MEWDS. Two months after this diagnosis she developed CNV, which was effectively treated by intravitreal ranibizumab. In the current literature there are only six cases of CNV that developed after (from 4 weeks to 13 years) the diagnosis of MEWDS [–, ]. Only two were effectively treated by intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) [, ]. In all other cases the visual loss was permanent despite treatment [–]. +The case described is unusual: the CNV occurred in a patient with ASs, 2 months after the diagnosis of MEWDS. Although both ASs and MEWDS may contribute to the onset of CNV, the patient’s young age, good prognosis after intravitreal ranibizumab and the presence of MEWDS involving the macular area may indicate an inflammatory etiology of the CNV. +Though the pathophysiologic mechanism remains unclear, it has been suggested that alterations of Bruch’s membrane or the outer retinal barrier caused by choroidal inflammation may be associated with ischemic and/or inflammatory CNV . It has also been hypothesized that the inflammatory processes induce the release of chemokines that favor angiogenesis . This patient was in fact younger than the mean age at which CNV usually develops associated with ASs [, ]. Moreover, in this case a single intravitreal ranibizumab injection had a lasting effect (up to at least 1 year), as shown by FA and OCT, and by the maintenance of good BCVA. +Our results are in agreement with Rouvas et al. who have described the good responses to intravitreal treatment with ranibizumab for inflammatory retinal diseases . This might be explained by the different nature of the CNV, in which inflammation may have played an important pathogenic role, compared to other CNVs secondary to ASs which tend to be associated with a worse visual prognosis, and need more injections . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_950_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_950_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..69d8d9b689f4a866866524c359ae753515db098e --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_950_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +This is a case of a 68-year-old male smoker (50 pack-year history).

Genetic studies using probes for relevant targets, including t(15;17) PML-RARA, t(8;21) RUNX1-RUNX1T1, inv(16) CBFB-MYH11, and t(9,22) BCR-ABL, gave negative results. Tests for FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3) and NPM-1 (Nucleophosmin-1) gene mutations were also negative. KIT mutation at the codon 816 (D816V) (A7176T) was detected in all sorted BM cell populations, except in T cells; BM cells harboring the KIT D816V mutation included MC, CD34+ cells, CD34-HLA-DR-, CD34-HLA-DR+, and CD34-HLA-DR++ cells. +Abdominopelvic computerized tomography scan affirmed hepatomegaly (18.5 cm) and mild splenomegaly (13 cm) with small hypodense nodules (maximum diameter 10 mm) and revealed retroperitoneal adenopathies forming a conglomerate extending from the lesser gastric curvature and involving the large vessels; the largest adenopathy was in the hepatic-duodenal ligament and had 2.4 cm of major diameter. There was also a lamina of peritoneal liquid in pelvic cavitation. +Digestive endoscopy revealed slight reduced distensibility of the gastric body, which had a congestive mucosa with foci of erythema, and the duodenum had a congestive and micronodular mucosa. Biopsies were not performed due to severe thrombocytopenia. Skeleton radiography did not reveal osteolytic lesions. Thorax radiography had no evidence of mediastinal enlargement, lung consolidations, or pleural effusions. +According to the WHO criteria [, ], and to the consensus recommendations of the EU/US-CGM and the ECNM , the patient was diagnosed with KIT D816V+ MCL associated with AML with normal karyotype. She was immediately started with oral corticosteroids (prednisolone, 60 mg/day for one week, tapered to 20 mg/day over 1 month, and then maintaining 20 mg/day) and disodium cromoglycate (200 mg capsules, 4 times daily), and H1 (cetirizine, 10 mg/day, orally) and H2 (ranitidine, 150 mg twice a day, orally) antihistamines, which ameliorate the symptomatology. Then, she received two cycles of cladribine (0.14 mg/kg/day, administered over a 2-hour infusion for 5 days) with one month of interval, and the serum tryptase levels transiently decreased to 41 μg/L . +One month after, she maintained constitutional symptoms, hepatomegaly, and pancytopenia, and she developed cutaneous and mucosal hemorrhage (petechial rash, epistaxis, and spontaneous oral cavity bleeding), myalgia, and bone pain. By that time, the serum tryptase serum levels had increased to 123 μg/L , and the BM aspirate showed 47.0% myeloblasts, 8% promyelocytes, and 7.0% MC. Bone marrow FCM revealed 3% MPC (CD45+low, CD34+, CD117+, FcεRI/IgE−, CD2−, and CD25−/+), 7% MCP (CD45+ low, CD34−, CD117+, FcεRI/IgE+low, CD2−, and CD25+), 46% of immature granulocytic cells (almost complete maturational arrest at the promyelocyte stage), and 7% of CD45+, CD34−, CD117+ high, CD2−, and CD25+ MC. Peripheral blood counts were WBC 2.07 × 109/L, neutrophils 4.0% (0.08 × 109/L), MC 41.0%, BC 9.0%; Hg 8.8 g/dl; and platelets 28 × 109/L. Flow cytometry studies performed in the PB showed 48% CD45+ low, CD117+, CD34−, FcεRI/IgE+low, CD25+, CD2− MCP, 4% CD45+low, CD34+, CD117+, FcεRI/IgE−, CD25−/+, CD2− MPC; once again, circulating CD45+, CD34−, CD117+high, CD2−, CD25+ MC were not observed. By that time, she received induction therapy for AML consisting of two cycles of idarubicin (12 mg/m2/day, intravenous, for 3 days) and cytosine arabinoside (AraC) (100 mg/m2/day, intravenous, for 7 days), achieving hematological remission and normal tryptase levels after the second induction course . At that time, the BM smears were slightly hypocellular with 1.3% of BC and no MC. Bone marrow FCM studies detected 1.5% of CD117+ CD34+ MPC, 54% maturing granulocytic cells, from which 26% were promyelocytes, 53% were metamyelocytes and myelocytes, and 21% were mature neutrophils, and 0.03% were phenotypically abnormal MC (0.02% CD117+ CD34− CD2− CD25−/+low, FcεRI/IgE+ MCP, and 0.01% CD117+high CD34−, CD2−, CD25+, FcεRI/IgE+low MC). Consolidation therapy performed in the subsequent 2 months consisted of two courses of high-dose AraC (2 g/m2, intravenous). +As complication of treatment she had bartholinite, treated with piperacillin plus tazobactam, and metronidazole; oral mucositis grade II controlled with tramadol; febrile neutropenia with bacteremia by Escherichia Coli treated with piperacillin plus tazobactam; pneumonia without respiratory insufficiency, which was responsive to imipenem plus vancomycin, and pseudomembranous colitis by Clostridium difficile, treated with metronidazole. +Two months after the second course of consolidation chemotherapy, the patient received isogroup HLA-identical related allogeneic HSCT from her sister (10/10 match) (5.09 × 106/kg nonmanipulated peripheral blood CD34+ cells, totalizing 322 × 106 CD34+ cells). The reduced-intensity conditioning regimen included fludarabine (30 mg/m2/day for 5 days) and busulfan (4 mg/kg/day for 2 days). As acute complication, she had febrile neutropenia treated with meropenem. On day 30 after HSCT, she had recovery of the hematological counts, and no myeloblasts or MC were seen in the PB. Unfortunately, the BM aspirate was hypocellular and results from BM studies were unevaluable. Abdominal echography revealed stable hepatomegaly (17.5 cm), without splenomegaly, or adenomegalies. Three months after HSCT a complete chimerism was documented in PB and BM neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes. She developed a chronic graft versus host disease with cutaneous manifestations, controlled with cyclosporine A and mycophenolate mofetil. By the time of this report (24 months after the diagnosis, 15 months after HSCT), she maintains normal serum tryptase levels, complete hematological remission, and complete chimerism in PB . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_952_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_952_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..a82d5b474b5858ae50f27e411f529df1b7e2e4fe --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_952_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +The patient in this case was an 11-year-old male who fell while running and injured his left wrist(We have obtained the consent of the patients and their families regarding sharing information associated with the patient). An X-ray examination at the local hospital revealed a fracture of the distal radius and dislocation of the distal ulnar radial joint. The doctor at the hospital administered the patient 2 manipulations and plaster fixation. Two months later, the patient presented to our hospital due to local swelling and pain. An initial examination of the injury site found no signs of neurovascular damage, but there was pain at the left upper ulnar radial joint, dorsal ulnar bony projection of the left wrist with slight local swelling and significant tenderness. The left wrist joint had nearly unrestricted extension and flexion, but its rotational ability, particularly supination, was limited . +We performed an X-ray of the injured site and found that the distal left ulna was split and a new ulna was growing. With the consent of the patient’s family, we performed a CT examination of the area which clearly revealed the deformity was more clearly . The new ulna grew inwards, was slightly smaller than the original ulna and did not have a complete articular surface, while the normal original ulna protrudes dorsally and laterally with an intact articular surface and a “Y” shaped distal ulna. The patient exhibited normal wrist flexion and extension, but had limited rotation. Following a discussion, the patient’s parents declined surgical treatment. Consequently, we recommended functional exercise and regular follow-up to manage the condition. After a period of seven months, the patient returned to us as a result of experiencing pain. Examination showed that the showed that the pain in the left upper ulnar radius had almost disappeared and the rotation of the left wrist had improved, but there was still pain on extreme supination. The x-ray showed that the distal ulnar bifurcation was still visible, but the two bifurcated ulnae were close to each other and the base was decreased compared with that at 2 months after injury . +The patient presented to our hospital at 3 years and 7 years after the injury. At the last follow-up, the patient’s status was that of a university student, not yet in the workforce. The patient’s left wrist function recovered satisfactorily and did not interfere with his daily life or physical activity, including playing basketball, push-ups and lifting heavy objects. A physical examination revealed that the length of the forearms were equal, the left elbow joint was normal, the left wrist deformity was minimal, the left ulnar styloid process was not prominent, there was no obvious local tenderness, the left wrist extension and flexion and rotation range of activities were normal. However, there was mild pain around the ulnar styloid process on extreme posterior rotation of the left wrist. The X-ray showed that the distal ulna was shortened and bifurcated, but the ulnar bifurcation was atrophied and smaller than previously, the ulnar styloid process was deformed and enlarged, the inferior ulnar radial joint was dislocated, the distal ulna did not participate in the composition of the radial carpal joint, and there was no obvious deformity of the radius. +When performing activities of daily living (ADLs), the normal functional range of wrist motion is 5 degrees of flexion, 30 degrees of extension, 10 degrees of radial deviation and 15 degrees of ulnar deviation [, ]. During the follow-up visits, we recorded the patient’s range of motion including wrist flexion and extension, ulnar and radial deviation of the wrist, and anterior/posterior rotation of the forearm .

The symptoms got progressively worse to the point that she had difficulty with ambulation. She had associated burning dysesthesias of left thigh. The patient’s neurological examination was remarkable for hypertonia, decreased power (3/5), hyperreflexia along with sensory loss in the right upper and lower extremity and hyperesthesia in the entire left lower extremity. +Gadolinium contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head was normal but MRI of the cervico-thoracic spine revealed an enhancing intramedullary lesion from C2 to C4, centrally into the right of the midline with signal changes at the T1 level without enhancement or expansive appearance . Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis was abnormal for a mild lymphocytic pleocytosis, marked elevation of IgG and prominent oligoclonal bands . Comprehensive infectious workup including blood cultures for bacteria, polymerase chain reaction for varicella zoster, herpes simplex virus, and serologies for Lyme disease and syphilis were negative. Differentials for non-infectious inflammatory myelitis were considered; including paraneoplastic myelitis and myelitis with Sjogren’s syndrome. NMO antibodies were not obtained during this presentation. The patient was treated with 1 gram of intravenous (IV) methylprednisone and 800 mg of oral acyclovir for 5 days for presumptive diagnosis of transverse myelitis secondary to varicella zoster infection with improvement in her symptoms. She was discharged on oral prednisone with instructions to taper and discontinue the drug over the next 1 week. +Two months later, she developed left upper and lower extremity weakness, bilateral lower extremity dysesthesias and urinary incontinence. Examination confirmed 4/5 left hemiparesis with brisk reflexes, bilateral ankle clonus along with pinprick loss in both lower extremities. Repeat MRI of the spine revealed worsening enhancement at lower cervical cord region (C5-7) with extension to T1 level . Repeat CSF analysis showed a lymphocytic pleocytosis, increased IgG synthesis index and positive oligoclonal bands . Immunological work up was abnormal for NMO-IgG/AQP4 antibody . An ophthalmologic evaluation was negative for optic neuritis. The patient’s relapsing neurological illness was felt to represent NMOSD from underlying long standing SS. She was treated with 1 gram of IV methylprednisone and started on 1 gram of IV cyclophosphamide (CTX) therapy for worsening motor-sensory deficit. She was discharged on high dose oral prednisone and continuation of monthly CTX infusions. +After her second monthly CTX infusion, patient had a relapse with right upper and lower extremity weakness, dysesthesias in the parieto-occipital scalp region and right leg along with urinary incontinence. The patient was placed on 5 days of pulse IV steroids with improvement in her symptoms. She was discharged on 60 mg of daily prednisone which was slowly tapered over 6 months. She continued to show clinical improvement despite persistence of NMO-IgG antibodies. After 5 infusions of monthly CTX therapy, maintenance treatment with Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) was started. She has remained on MMF without recurrence of symptoms for over 18 months. She has no residual motor or sensory deficits.
