Nine years prior, she was diagnosed with polycythemia and an increased erythropoietin level , although she was asymptomatic. At that time, the erythropoietin level soon began decreasing slightly without medication, and thus, the follow-up was completed. However, at the time of admission to our hospital, the patient’s blood test results had worsened. Although she did not report any symptoms other than abdominal pain and her activity level was not impeded, blood tests showed a relatively high level of erythropoietin and a remarkably high level of hemoglobin. Levels of hemoglobin and erythropoietin were 21.9 g/dl (normal 11.5–15 g/dl) and 23.2 IU/ml (normal 4.2–23.7 IU/ml), respectively . Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large uterine myoma measuring 25 cm in diameter. Therefore, she was suspected to have an erythropoietin-producing uterine myoma. There were no apparent symptoms of arterial or venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, which were ruled out by contrast computed tomography. Platelet count, coagulation test results, fibrinogen levels, and D-dimer levels were within normal ranges. +Prior to abdominal total hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, phlebotomy was scheduled to treat polycythemia; this reduced the risk of arterial and venous thrombosis. The patient was phlebotomized, 300 ml once a week, for up to 3 weeks without any complications. Despite the phlebotomy, hemoglobin levels remained high ; thus, isovolemic hemodilution was planned to be performed immediately following anesthesia induction. +Following placement of an epidural catheter into the epidural space at Th12/L1, general anesthesia was induced with 120 mg propofol, 0.1 mg fentanyl, and 50 mg rocuronium; it was maintained with 1.5% sevoflurane, 0.25 μg/kg/min remifentanil, and 10 mg rocuronium per 30 min. Electrocardiogram, bispectral index, end-tidal CO2, body temperature, and SpO2 were monitored during the surgery. Following induction of general anesthesia, an arterial 22 G catheter was placed in the radial artery, from which approximately 800 ml of blood was collected over 45 min while an equal amount of third-generation 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4/9 was infused from a peripheral venous 18 G catheter. As a result, the hemoglobin level dropped to 13.9 g/dl . The surgery was performed with a total blood loss of 285 ml. During surgery, the infusion mainly comprised acetic acid Ringer’s solution and HES 130/0.4/9; the total infusion volume was 3600 ml. Determination of the infusion volume was based on cardiac and stroke volume indexes, measured with a FloTrac™/Vigileo™ system (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA; SVVFloTrac). The patient’s urine volume was 590 ml. At the end of the surgery, the hemoglobin level was within the normal range ; thus, transfusion of autologous blood was not needed.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a slightly high signal intensity in the left occipital lobe, with no apparent cerebral infarction . LEAP therapy was discontinued. Although there were no visual complaints or findings given the location of the MRI abnormalities and electroencephalogram was normal, her consciousness level gradually worsened, resulting in convulsions, which were suppressed by an intravenous injection of diazepam (5 mg). She was started on levetiracetam (200 mg) to prevent convulsions. For further investigation, additional blood tests and multiple lumbar taps were performed. While serum vitamin B1, TSH, FT4, and FT3 levels were normal, a slight increase was seen in the anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody levels . The blood glucose level was 110 mg/dL. Analysis of the cerebrospinal fluid found cells (5/µL), protein (154 mg/dL), and glucose (50 mg/dL) , suggesting that meningitis was unlikely.

The absence of markers of inflammation in the cerebrospinal fluid and a high signal intensity in the left occipital lobe on MRI suggested PRES, rather than encephalitis. Therefore, it was concluded that these symptoms were caused by lenvatinib, not pembrolizumab. She was resumed on treatment with pembrolizumab. Although no long-term sequalae of PRES were observed, unfortunately, CT showed multiple lymph node metastases after four cycles of pembrolizumab monotherapy, indicative of further disease progression.

His blood pressure was 140/85 mmHg whilst his electrocardiogram (ECG), upon presentation, showed normal sinus rhythm (98 b.p.m.) with widespread ST segment depression consistent with diffuse subendocardial ischaemia and a first troponin sample was below the limit of significance. Given the presentation with progressively worsening angina (unstable angina) and the ECG which suggested a large area of myocardium at jeopardy the patient was loaded with aspirin 300 mg and ticagrelor 180 mg and, following a new anginal episode at rest, a decision was made to undergo urgent invasive coronary angiography. The investigation highlighted a left dominant circulation with a severe mid-left anterior descending narrowing with reduced distal coronaryflow [thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 1] and a severe, large, first obtuse marginal (OM1) stenosis which were both treated with drug-eluting stents implantation with excellent angiographic result, no complications and resolution of ECG anomalies .

There were no recorded cryptococcal antigen tests from the previous year. +On admission, she was started on amphotericin B deoxycholate (0.8 mg/kg/day) and high dose oral fluconazole (12 mg/kg/day), as flucytosine is not readily available. Given ongoing neurologic symptoms (headache, vomiting), several therapeutic lumbar punctures were performed throughout admission (day 2 of hospitalization 8 mL was drained, day 6, 10 mL, day 10, 15 mL and day 18, 12 mL) with transient improvement in symptoms. Despite this, on day 16 of hospitalization she developed bilateral cranial nerve VI palsy (see Fig. ). CSF analysis showed a negative India ink stain and culture; CSF cell counts were not obtained due to a shortage of reagents. A CT head with/without contrast from day 17 showed mild parenchymal edema of left parietal lobe, otherwise normal. HIV viral load obtained at that time was 262 copies/milliliter.

After birth, the baby was found to have jaundice (lasting for 1 month), difficulties falling asleep and a small head circumference. At the age of 7 months, physical examination showed muscular hypertonia, hands often clenched, and global growth regression. The electroencephalogram showed bounded linearity. Cranial MRI showed that the volume of the bilateral cerebellar hemispheres was significantly decreased, especially in the lower part of cerebellar hemisphere, the cerebellar sulcus was widened and deepened, and the occipital cistern was widened (suspected cerebellar hemisphere dysplasia). Additionally, the signal of the bilateral globus pallidus changed slightly, the sulci of the bilateral cerebral hemispheres was slightly widened and deepened, the bilateral frontotemporal extracerebral space was slightly widened, and the bilateral lateral ventricles were slightly widened. At 11 months of age, the head circumference was 40 cm (< − 3 SD) (reference value: 41.9–47.3 cm) . The clinical diagnosis was primary microcephaly. There was no genetic history in the family, and the parents were not close relatives . We initially diagnosed the patient with intellectual developmental and microcephaly with pontine and cerebellar hypoplasia (MICPCH) based on the specific clinical characteristics. There were no phenotypic abnormalities observed in the parents of the patient. +We extracted DNA from the patient’s peripheral blood sample and performed WES. The results showed that the CASK gene had a heterozygous missense variant, specifically CASK: NM_003688.3: exon 7: c.638T>G: p.L213R. . +According to the bioinformatics analysis, this variant was not previous reported and was not found in most databases, including the ExAC browser, 1000 Genomes Project, and In-house Chinese-Control. The latest gnomAD database indicates that the frequency of this variant is 0.000005520 . In addition, this variant site is highly conserved in many species according to mutation taster . PhastCons and PhyloP were used to evaluate the scores of amino acid sequence conservation. The scores indicated that this variant site is highly conserved . Moreover, this mutation was predicted to be deleterious by the following bioinformatic tools: SIFT , PolyPhen-2 , and M-CAP . The above results indicate that this variant site is pathogenic and well conserved. +To further confirm the negative effect of this variant on CASK expression, wild-type and mutant plasmids were constructed and transfected into HEK-293T cells. We determined the mRNA and protein expression of both the wild type and the mutant and found that there was no significant difference in mRNA expression between the wild type and the mutant. However, compared with the wild type, the protein expression of the mutant was downregulated. +Finally, we predicted the structural pattern of the protein after the amino acid arginine (R) was substituted for leucine (L) by PSIPRED [–]. Importantly, the mutant protein showed decreased protein stability, which is represented by the increased Gibbs free energy (ΔΔGpred = 1.857). The results of the protein structure prediction showed that the nuclear charge of the protein increased (ΔCharge = 1) and the stability of the protein decreased (ΔΔGpred = 1.857) after the variant. Moreover, a random coil in the secondary structure is changed to a β-sheet, which also affects its spatial structure . Therefore, the decreased protein stability and the changed protein structure might contribute to the downregulation of CASK protein expression, further causing the loss of protein function. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1256_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1256_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..cd7e15a30eceee41dc5b9eb3c1bbab94d55676f2 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1256_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +An 80-year-old Asian woman with Alzheimer dementia was found lying unconscious at her house, which had no air conditioner and the windows were kept closed; the highest outside temperature was 36.1 °C.

Normal values: native T1 < 1000 ms, T2 < 50 ms. Analyses were made by cvi42 software (Circle, Canada). Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images were acquired after contrast administration (Gadobutrol 0.15 mmol/kg) using segmented inversion-recovery fast low angle shot (IR-FLASH). +Native T1-mapping demonstrated markedly elevated T1 values with preponderance in the inferoseptal wall (1068 ± 73 ms in the entire slice vs. 1122 ± 31 ms in the inferoseptal wall), also see Figs. and . Furthermore, T2-mapping revealed increased values (entire slice 52 ± 6 ms, inferoseptal wall 55 ± 6 ms), suggesting myocardial edema representing active myocardial inflammation by hantavirus infection. In contrast, the LGE image, potentially indicating irreversible myocardial damage if positive, in the corresponding slice was negative . Despite negative LGE, this patient was considered having hantavirus-induced myocarditis due to: 1) clinical symptoms, 2) increased cardiac biomarkers, 3) exclusion of CAD and 4) conspicuous native T1- and T2-mapping values detected by CMR. +In the next few weeks, the patient’s state of health rapidly improved and symptoms of chest pain and dyspnea disappeared. Five months later, the patient was followed up by the same CMR protocol: Substantial decrease of native T1 values (957 ± 58 ms in the entire slice vs. 971 ± 36 ms in the inferoseptal wall) and T2 values (entire slice 44 ± 5 ms, inferoseptal wall 45 ± 3 ms) in the mid-ventricular slice position could be observed, again LGE-negative, suggesting myocardial healing . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1298_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1298_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..fdf1423b6afdcba5b08a5110873d64dbb3088ebe --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1298_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 38-year-old woman in her 19th wk of pregnancy (G2P1) was referred to our clinic for a sudden persistent pain on the left side of the waist on July 28, 2017. +The patient’s physical examination revealed tenderness over the left kidney area.

The T2 FLAIR sequence demonstrated high signal intensity, but no enhancement was observed (as shown in ). The laboratory tests revealed that the patient had a NMDAR antibody IgG titer of 1:300 in peripheral blood and 1:100 in cerebrospinal fluid. Additionally, the CA19-9 level was elevated at 48.44 U/mL, while the CA125 level was within the normal range at 21.9 U/mL.

The result revealed an oval mixed echo group measuring 54 × 37 mm in the adnexal area. The lesion exhibited clear boundary, a thin cyst wall, and homogeneous, dense, punctate hyperechoic areas, as well as liquid anechoic areas within. These findings suggest a possible teratoma in the left adnexal area.

Both MRCP and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography showed focal bile duct compression without any biliary obstruction and dilatation . 18F-FDG accumulation was shown on PET after 5 months of the CT scan; the size of the tumor did not change during the interval , and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) was 5.0 and 6.5 in the early and late phases, respectively. Lymphadenopathy was not identified by any imaging methods. Because IgG4-related disease and portal hepatic malignancy, including malignant lymphoma and cholangiocarcinoma, were still of our concern, a needle biopsy via endoscopic ultrasonography was performed. Histological study showed the spindle cells close to the bile duct . The lymphocyte infiltration was not identified, but the small vessels had proliferated moderately. Immunohistological examinations showed that the tumor cells were strongly positive for S-100 but not for smooth muscle actin and c-Kit. Ki-67 staining was < 1% of the tumor cells. The diagnosis of portal hepatic schwannoma was made. Because of her age and possibly high invasiveness of the surgery for the portal benign tumor, we did not recommend the surgical procedures. She was followed up intensely in another institution. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1391_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1391_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..a07203cc91203945b0175fd96491f05b8f2c35f3 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1391_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 27-year-old Burkinabe woman from the north of Burkina Faso had consulted for a recurrent scalp nodule that had been evolving for 13 years.

He had normal physical findings with no clinical evidence of heart failure. He did not have any thrombotic or bleeding complications of ET. He underwent Holter monitoring, echocardiography, and coronary computed tomography (CT). Holter monitoring showed no sustained ventricular tachycardia, and the patient’s PVC burden was <20%. It was suspected that the PVCs had been induced by the anagrelide, and his palpitations gradually resolved without any changes to his medication. However, his shortness of breath persisted. Echocardiography showed normal left ventricular ejection function (70%), with no evidence of valve disease. Coronary CT showed severe stenosis of the left anterior descending artery (LAD), prompting coronary angiography (CAG) that revealed moderate stenosis of the left main trunk (LMT) and LAD . The instantaneous wave-free ratio value of the proximal LAD lesion was 0.88. To estimate the efficacy of the heparin, we checked the activated clotting time (ACT), which was 144 s, even after 8000 units of unfractionated heparin had been delivered intravenously. Therefore, heparin resistance was suspected. We did not measure fractional flow reserve because the patient had active asthma, PVCs, and an inadequate prolongation of ACT. The patient’s platelet factor 4, a protein in platelet α-granules released, was markedly increased (91.7 ng/mL; the normal range is <20 ng/mL), whereas he was negative for antithrombin (AT)-3 and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia platelet factor 4 antibody (HIT-Ab). Conventional anti-anginal therapy was implemented, but his shortness of breath persisted and a treadmill test showed significant ST depression in V4–V6. We planned to perform percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) only after the patient’s platelet count had fallen below 600 000/μL.

He presented with chest pain, dyspnea, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, recurrent respiratory infections, and episodes of significant hemoptysis. Medical history included pulmonary TB in 1995 , which was adequately treated with antitubercular medications for 6 months, resulting in a residual cavity in the left lower lobe. Hemoptysis first occurred a couple of years after initial TB treatment and symptoms had become aggravated since then. In 2007, the patient presented with a new episode of hemoptysis. His medical history and a CT scan of the chest lead to the differential diagnosis of pulmonary aspergillosis. The patient was hemodynamically stable and a hemoglobin of 155 g/L (reference value 135–168 g/L) was measured. Since bronchoscopy confirmed endobronchial bleeding from the segments where the lesion was located, partial resection of the left inferior lobe was performed in the same year. Aspergilloma was confirmed by histopathological examination of the resected lung tissue. A post-interventional CT scan of the chest, however, showed persistence of the aspergilloma. In addition, persistence was suggested microbiologically by positive Aspergillus cultures from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and sputum at different timepoints. In the following years, three attempts at endovascular embolization of pulmonary arteries, the first in 2008, were performed due to recurring hemoptysis, without achieving lasting hemostasis. Therefore, long-term antifungal therapy with itraconazole was initiated in 2009 and continued for 2.5 years. In addition to the aspergillosis, the patient was diagnosed with a pulmonary actinomycosis in 2015, a rare opportunistic bacterial infection of the lung. Actinomyces were also isolated from a bronchoscopic biopsy in the left lower lobe. Although Aspergillus cultures and Aspergillus precipitin could not reaffirm aspergilloma persistence at that time, these results did not definitely rule out a concomitant fungal and bacterial infection. The patient’s pulmonary function was further reduced after suffering multiple pulmonary emboli. The last complete pulmonary function testing prior to radiotherapy was performed in 2013. It revealed a vital capacity (VC) of 2.15 L (44% of reference value), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) of 1.55 L (41%), and a diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) of 7.4 mmol/min/kPa (71%), so that the patient was considered unfit for further surgical interventions. During the first consultation in our clinic, the patient reported recurrent episodes of hemoptysis causing blood loss of more than 100 ml per day. A CT of the chest showed a persistent, spiculated, partly cavernous lesion in the left lower lobe with a diameter of approximately 5 cm . Treatment planning also included an 18F‑FDG-PET/CT scan to localize the fungal manifestation and identified the metabolically active inflamed vascular lining of the cavity as the most likely cause of bleeding . SBRT with a total dose of 16 Gy was applied in two fractions of 8 Gy on consecutive days with a robotic arm-mounted linear accelerator equipped with an iris collimator (CyberKnife®, Accuray Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA; Fig. b). Dose was prescribed to the 80% isodose line and the ray-tracing algorithm was used for dose calculation. After acquisition of a 4D-planning CT to account for respiratory motion, the planning target volume (PTV) was generated from an internal target volume (ITV), adding a 2-mm margin. Despite an irregularly shaped PTV, the chosen irradiation technique allowed us to achieve a conformal dose distribution of the target volume and tolerable doses for relevant organs at risk (OAR) as shown in the dose–volume histogram (DVH; Fig. c). The treatment was well tolerated, and no side effects were reported by the patient. During the 6 years of follow-up at our department, the patient has reported a significant decrease in hemoptysis frequency and volume, and no new long-term medication or invasive treatments have been necessary since then. When he presented at the hospital’s emergency unit with dyspnea and small-volume hemoptysis in 2016, there were no signs of an active or older bleeding evident in CT or bronchoscopy. Hemoglobin level remained stable at around 140 g/L over the years and fell below 120 g/L only once during an episode of community-acquired pneumonia in 2016 not accompanied by hemoptysis. Regular CT scans of the chest confirmed a stable size of the pulmonary lesion after an initial pseudoprogression, which is often observed after SBRT for large target volumes . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1428_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1428_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..e20c64280bc3d2ec86a28eaf1a9e8116a34f828f --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1428_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 25-year-old man with paraphimosis was referred from another clinic.

On presentation, the penile glans and prepuce were hard and swollen, and the ring of preputial skin constricted the distal penis so tightly it was pale. These findings suggested an advanced ischemic condition. He did not complain of pain. The day after presentation, we tried surgical repair of his paraphimosis. During surgery, we first tried to correct blood congestion in the penile glans. We penetrated the glans penis with a sharp scalpel blade and removed blood from the glans; the glans was collapsed. We then circumcised the constricting ring of preputial skin that was already necrotic. We speculated that penile necrosis and failure of sutures would occur due to tissue necrosis. We informed the patient and his mother of this possibility.

An accurate cardiological evaluation, including electrocardiogram and echocardiography, excluded that the impairment of the symptoms was due to the cardiovascular alterations. Moreover, general hematologic tests, as well as the thyroid function resulted normal. +Clinical picture was negative, except for NYHA class II, whereas chest x-ray showed the presence of a very small nodule in the middle lobe of the right lung.

The masses displayed a right extension to the aorto-caval space, incorporating the renal vessels and imprinting the inferior vena cava . These radiological features were highly suspicious for primary adrenal tumor. Normal values of the urinary metanephrines ruled out the hypothesis of pheochromocytoma. Moreover, the diagnosis of adrenal carcinoma was unlikely, since circulating levels of androgens (testosterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone-sulfate, Delta4 androstenedione) were low or normal, except for an increase of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP). This finding was confirmed through two repeated measurements (2.88 mcg/L and 2.79; normal value between 0.13 and 0.51). The 17-OHP levels were assayed by radioimmunoassay. Assay sensitivity was 0.01 ng/dL, whereas intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were both 9.0%). The remaining hormonal assessment revealed very low levels of morning plasma cortisol and the 24-h urinary free cortisol in the lower range of normality, elevated ACTH levels with low plasma concentration of aldosterone, pointing to the diagnosis of PAI . +Radiological assessment ruled out the presence of adrenal haemorrhages that may occur during chronic anticoagulant therapy, particularly during dabigratan treatment.

His medical history revealed a previous hepatitis B infection, which resulted in hepatic failure 10 years ago. Additionally, he was diagnosed with HIV infection. However, he ceased taking antiviral treatment with the medications provided free of charge by the Chinese government for a period of three years. During this hospital visit, his CD4 + T-cell count was found to be 26/μL (normal range: 500–1612/μL), HIV-1 RNA was 1.1 × 105 copies/ml, and HBV-DNA was negative. Chest computed tomography (CT) scan revealed nodular and patchy lung lesions . The BALF shows positive acid-fast staining. Further assessment of the BALF using XpertMTB/RIF PCR revealed resistance to rifampicin, and the tuberculosis drug susceptibility test of the BALF (liquid culture, medium MGIT 960) indicated resistance to rifampicin, isoniazid, and streptomycin. Considering the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for drug-resistant tuberculosis, the patient’s drug susceptibility results, and the co-infection of HIV and HBV, an individualized treatment plan was tailored for him. The treatment plan included BIC/TAF/FTC (50 mg/25 mg/200 mg per day) for HBV and HIV antiviral therapy, as well as linezolid (0.6 g/day), cycloserine (0.5 g/day), moxifloxacin (0.4 g/day), pyrazinamide (1.5 g/day), and ethambutol (0.75 g/day) for anti-tuberculosis treatment, along with supportive care. +Unfortunately, after 3 months of follow-up, the patient discontinued all medications due to inaccessibility of the drugs. He returned to our hospital (Nov 12, 2022, day 0) after discontinuing medication for six months, with a complaint of poor appetite for the past 10 days. Elevated liver enzymes were observed, with an alanine aminotransferase level of 295 IU/L (normal range: 0–40 IU/L) and a total bilirubin(TBIL) level of 1.8 mg/dL (normal range: 0–1 mg/dL). His HBV viral load increased to 5.5 × 109 copies/ml. Considering the liver impairment, elevated HBV-DNA and the incomplete anti-tuberculosis treatment regimen , we discontinued pyrazinamide and initiated treatment with linezolid, cycloserine, levofloxacin, and ethambutol for anti-tuberculosis therapy, along with BIC/TAF/FTC for HIV and HBV antiviral treatment. Additionally, enhanced liver protection and supportive management were provided, involving hepatoprotective effects of medications such as glutathione, magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate, and bicyclol. However, the patient’s TBIL levels continued to rise progressively, reaching 4.4 mg/dL on day 10 . Suspecting drug-related factors, we discontinued all anti-tuberculosis medications while maintaining BIC/TAF/FTC for antiviral therapy, the patient’s TBIL levels continued to rise persistently. We ruled out other viral hepatitis and found no significant evidence of obstructive lesions on magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. Starting from the day 19, due to the patient’s elevated TBIL levels of 12.5 mg/dL, a decrease in prothrombin activity (PTA) to 52% , and the emergence of evident symptoms such as abdominal distension and poor appetite, we initiated aggressive treatment methods. Unfortunately, on day 38, his hemoglobin level dropped to 65 g/L (normal range: 120–170 g/L, Fig. A), and his platelet count decreased to 23 × 109/L (normal range: 125–300 × 109/L, Fig. C). Based on a score of 7 on the Naranjo Scale, it was highly suspected that “Linezolid” was the cause of these hematological abnormalities. Therefore, we had to discontinue Linezolid for the anti-tuberculosis treatment. Subsequently, on day 50, the patient developed recurrent fever, a follow-up chest CT scan revealed enlarged nodules in the lungs . The patient also reported mild dizziness and a worsening cough. On day 61, the previous blood culture results reported the growth of Cryptococcus. A lumbar puncture was performed on the same day, and the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) opening pressure was measured at 130 mmH2O. India ink staining of the CSF showed typical encapsulated yeast cells suggestive of Cryptococcus. Other CSF results indicated mild leukocytosis and mildly elevated protein levels, while chloride and glucose levels were within normal limits. Subsequently, the patient received a fungal treatment regimen consisting of liposomal amphotericin B (3 mg/kg·d−1) in combination with fluconazole(600 mg/d). After 5 days of antifungal therapy, the patient’s fever symptoms were well controlled. Despite experiencing bone marrow suppression, including thrombocytopenia and worsening anemia, during this period, proactive symptom management, such as the use of erythropoietin, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and thrombopoietin, along with high-calorie dietary management, even reducing the dosage of liposomal amphotericin B to 2 mg/kg/day for 10 days at the peak of severity, successfully controlled the bone marrow suppression. However, within the following week, the patient experienced fever again, accompanied by a worsened cough, increased sputum production, and dyspnea. Nevertheless, the bilirubin levels did not show a significant increase. On day 78 the patient’s lung CT revealed patchy infiltrates and an increased amount of pleural effusion . The CD4 + T-cell count was 89/μL (normal range: 500–700/μL), indicating a significant improvement in immune function compared to the previous stage, and C-reactive protein was significantly elevated, reflecting the inflammatory state, other inflammatory markers such as IL-6 and γ-IFN were also significantly elevated. On day 84, Considering the possibility of IRIS, the patient began taking methylprednisolone 30 mg once a day as part of an effort to control his excessive inflammation. Following the administration of methylprednisolone, the man experienced an immediate improvement in his fever. Additionally, symptoms such as cough, sputum production, dyspnea, and poor appetite gradually subsided over time. A follow-up lung CT showed significant improvement, indicating a positive response to the treatment. After 28 days of treatment with liposomal amphotericin B in combination with fluconazole, liposomal amphotericin B was discontinued, and the patient continued with fluconazole to consolidate the antifungal therapy for Cryptococcus. Considering the patient’s ongoing immunodeficiency, the dosage of methylprednisolone was gradually reduced by 4 mg every week. After improvement in liver function, the patient’s anti-tuberculosis treatment regimen was adjusted to include bedaquiline, contezolid, cycloserine, moxifloxacin, and ethambutol.

After 8 months of the crizotinib therapy, a CT scan confirmed the stable disease for all lesions but it showed the appearance of multilocular cysts in both kidneys, the biggest of 3 cm, and a multilocular cyst starting from the right kidney to the perirenal adipose tissue and the posterior renal fascia . The patient had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0; serum creatinine, C-reactive protein (CRP) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were within normal ranges; blood cultures were negative for both bacteria and fungi. Taking into account the clinical benefit, the patient continued the crizotinib treatment. In September 2018 a CT scan confirmed that the disease was stable, but it documented confluent cystic formations bounded by solid walls, extended posteriorly and bilaterally from the kidneys along the perirenal and pararenal spaces: a cyst of 8 cm infiltrated the diaphragm and another one of 12 cm invaded the left iliopsoas muscle; two cystic hepatic lesions with thick walls also appeared, the biggest of 3 cm . The patient reported abdominal pain. Thus, the therapy was changed from crizotinib to alectinib, a second generation of ALK inhibitor approved for the treatment of metastatic NSCLC. In December 2018, after 3 months of the alectinib therapy, a CT scan confirmed that the disease was stable for the metastases affecting the brain, the chest and the abdomen and it showed the regression of cystic lesions in the kidneys, in the perirenal space and in the liver with a relevant reduction in size of the cystic lesion of the left iliopsoas muscle (2.8 cm versus 12 cm) . \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1473_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1473_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..47a4e1c390d9ab3ed6797bddd3798d327d3fedf8 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1473_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +We present a 30-year-old male with selective anti-polysaccharide antibody deficiency (SPAD) and peripheral blood CD5+/CD19+ B-cell predominance (97%, control 52.5 ± 17.3%) diagnosed at 5 years old.

The ophthalmologist subsequently applied for anesthesia sedation surgery the next day and consulted the anesthesiology department. After consultation with the anesthesiology department, it was found that the patient had severe OSAS, and thus, the risk of adverse events surrounding surgery under sedation in the ophthalmic operating room was high. As a result, the patient’s safety could not be guaranteed, and general anesthesia surgery was recommended in the anesthesiology operating room.

He complained of a severe headache, throat obstruction, near suffocation, and an uncontrollable and desperate need to escape the operating room. Neither the nurse nor the doctor could comfort him effectively. Finally, the operation was canceled again.

After cannulating an upper extremity peripheral vein, intravenous midazolam (3 mg) and propofol (30 mg) were administered for induction, and the patient was quickly transferred to the operating room after he lost consciousness. He was administered high-flow oxygen via mask for FiO2 100%, oxygen flow 6 L/minutes, with routine monitoring of vital signs. Heart rate was 65 beats per minute, blood pressure 112/55 mm Hg, oxygen saturation 100%, temperature 36.5°C, and bispectral index 75. Intravenous injection of etomidate (20 mg), sufentanil (10 μg), and dexmedetomidine hydrochloride infusion (1 μg/kg during the first 10 minutes) were administered. After stabilization of the heart rate and blood pressure, intravenous injection of cis-atracurium (15 mg) was given to complete anesthesia induction. Oxygen was administered via a mask to assist with breathing, and mechanical ventilation was started after oral placement of a No. 4 laryngeal mask following muscle relaxation. Subsequently, intravenous targeted infusion of propofol (3.0–6.0 μg/mL) and remifentanil (2.0–8.0 ng/mL) and an intravenous dexmedetomidine pump were started for intraoperative maintenance of bispectral index 40 to 60. The surgery took 55 minutes. The operation went smoothly, and the intraoperative vital signs were stable.

Urine routine analysis along with microbiological tests was performed as well. A brief sedation window was performed, and neurological examination demonstrated a coma state with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 5 (Eye 1, Vocal 1T, Motor 3), with a decorticated response to pain, bilaterally myotic pupils with a torpid pupillary response, and a bilaterally positive Babinski sign. +Early fluid resuscitation began with a bolus of 30 ml/kg of crystalloid in 3 h, and norepinephrine infusion began at a rate of 0.2 µg/kg/minute [, ]. +Empirical antibiotic therapy with ceftazole/tazobactam (1 g/0.5 g every 8 hours), meropenem (1 g every 8 hours), and aciclovir (250 mg) was administered.

Pentaglobin® (immunoglobulin IgM-enriched; Biotest) is a plasma-derived solution with the following composition: 12% IgM, 76% IgG, 12% IgA. Although the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines advise against the use of IVIG in patients with sepsis or septic shock, given the lack of a statistical significance for survival benefits [, ], our recent positive outcome in treating septic shock with an IgM-enriched formulation as an adjuvant therapy and the Gram-negative etiology of the patient’s condition were a convincing rationale, as IgM-enriched IVIGs were found to have higher antibody levels against Escherichia +coli and other Gram-negative bacteria than did normal IVIG preparations . +After 24 hours of therapy, the patient showed an improvement in blood chemistry (CPR 8.3 mg/dl; PCT 7.7 ng/ml; lactate 4.1 nmol/l) and hemodynamic parameters (CO 3.2 l/minute; SVR 550 dyne seconds/cm5, MAP 70 mmHg). Her body temperature was 36.5 °C. GCS score remained 5 (E1, V1T, M3) when another sedation window was performed. Her hemodynamic stability allowed her to undergo a brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan . The MRI scan revealed an altered signal and post-contrast enhancement of the leptomeninges. Moreover, multiple T2 and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) hyperintense and sometimes confluent lesions were detected: in the thalamus, which appeared swollen; in the pons, in the cerebellar peduncles, and in cerebellar hemispheres, also appearing swollen; in the ventricles (mostly in the lateral ventricles and in the occipital horn bilaterally); and in the parahippocampal region bilaterally. All these lesions were also characterized by a reduced diffusivity in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) scans. +Finally, multiple comminute T2/FLAIR white-matter hyperintense lesions were demonstrated, located in the juxtacortical white matter, especially in frontal regions, in both the corona radiata, and in periventricular regions bilaterally. +After 48 hours from the start of Pentaglobin treatment, there was a remarkable improvement in hematochemical and hemodynamic parameters. In particular, the patient no longer needed inotropic support, and we therefore suspended continuous infusion of norepinephrine. Ventilation was switched to an assisted mode to wean the patient from the ventilator. Three days after admission, hemodynamic parameters of the patient were still improving, she was not febrile anymore, and lactate levels were dropping; on the other hand, her neurological condition was still severe, with a persistent altered mental state, bilateral miosis with a torpid papillary response, nystagmus, dyplegia with bilaterally positive Babinski sign and hyperelicitable osteotendinous reflexes. +96 hours after Pentagoblin introduction, there was an evident improvement in the patient's clinical condition. GCS score increased to 10 (E3, V1T, M6). The patient was also able to be extubated, breathing spontaneously. Blood chemistry values were CPR 5.18 mg/dl, PCT 1.2 ng/ml, and lactate 1.2 mmol/l. Hemodynamic values were CO 5.4 l/minute, SVR 1200 dynes second/cm5, MAP 90 mmHg final. Neurological examination showed normal pupils and pupillary response, dyplegia with bilaterally positive Babinski sign, and hyperelicitable osteotendinous reflexes. Other cerebellar signs besides nystagmus became evident, with dysarthria and dysmetria of the upper limbs. A mild cognitive impairment was also detected, as the patient showed apraxia and executive functioning deficits. As the patient was more responsive, both a physiatrist and speech therapist assessment were scheduled to evaluate her and commence rehabilitation. +Six days after admission, the patient underwent a control CT scan, which demonstrated a partial resolution of the renal alterations suggestive of pyelonephritis. She also underwent a control brain MRI on day 9 after admission. The MRI scan showed a reduction of all the previously detected lesions, with less swelling of the thalamus and cerebellum. On the other hand, the multiple juxtacortical and periventricular white-matter lesions remained substantially unchanged, also showing some microbleeding spots The patient remained in our department for the continuation of antimicrobial therapy and close monitoring. Twenty-one days after admission the patient was remarkably improved, showing only mild cerebellar signs (mostly dysarthria, along with dysmetria and a slight action tremor), slight hyposthenia of the four limbs, and mild apraxia on neurological examination.

There was no medical or family history of note. At that time, there had been extremely powerful earthquakes occurring in the Kumamoto area where she lived, and as a result, she had been forced to stay in an emergency shelter. When she arrived at our hospital, treatment with ritodrine hydrochloride, magnesium sulfate, betamethasone and hydroxyprogesterone was initiated, and her premature uterine contractions were successfully controlled. +Soon after her admission, considerable polyuria (3000–6000 mL/day), nocturia (5–6 times a night) and polydipsia gradually became obvious . Because she was restricted to bedrest to prevent premature labor, precise diagnosis and treatment of polyuria was necessary. From the 27th to the 28th week of gestation, the amount of urine increased from 4000 to 6000 mL/day . Fasting plasma glucose levels during hospitalization were around 78–88 mg/dL and the results from a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test indicated that she was not diabetic . Although she developed polyuria, serum sodium levels were constant at around 137–140 mEq/L during the clinical course . Serum osmolality was maintained at around 260–265 mOsm/L, while urine osmolality (191–293 mOsm/L) showed below the levels of serum osmolality, indicating that her urine concentration ability had deteriorated . The serum level of AVP was 1.7 pg/mL (0.3–3.5; Table ), which is inconsistent with central DI. At the time of admission, hepatic dysfunction was not observed . A water deprivation test would have been unsuitable for diagnosis in this case because dehydration can deteriorate the maternal-fetus environment. Although a precise diagnosis of GDI was not made at that time, we decided to use oral 1-deamino-8-D-AVP (DDAVP) tablets for diagnostic treatment to determine whether her urine would respond to DDAVP and treat DI, as well as to rule out nephrogenic DI. Thus, the patient was first given 120 μg of oral DDAVP tablets, and then the dose of DDAVP was gradually increased to 360 μg until the amount of urine was less than 2000 mL/day with a urine osmolality of 305–365 mOsm/L . At the 32nd week of gestation, fetal maturation was confirmed and medical support to prevent premature contractions was ceased. Soon after this decision, a male fetus weighing 1660 g and 45 cm was delivered with a one-minute Apgar score of 8/9. Immediately after the normal delivery, DDAVP tablets were no longer necessary to control her polyuria. Daily urine amount decreased to 1300–1600 mL/day . At this point, s-Osm was 268 mOsm/L and u-Osm increased to 540 mOsm/L without DDAVP treatment . Pituitary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed and confirmed that the normal bright spot in the posterior pituitary on the T1 image was present . After these observations, clinical diagnosis of GDI was confirmed. +At 2 weeks post-partum, the patient’s sodium, serum and urine osmolality were within normal range.

A VPS had been placed 21 years earlier to treat hydrocephalus secondary to spina bifida. Shunt revision was performed only once when he was 10 months old, and no other abdominal surgery was performed after this. He had no history of malignancy or pancreatic or liver disease. Physical examination revealed a large elastic palpable mass in the upper abdomen. No neurological change was observed. His white blood cell count and amylase serum levels were normal. The patient underwent supine abdominal radiography and unenhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT). +Supine abdominal radiography revealed the VPS in the left upper quadrant and a soft-tissue mass in the upper abdomen (Figure ). Abdominal CT revealed homogeneous low-density fluid collection. The VPS catheter tip was adjacent to the fluid collection, suggesting a giant cystic lesion around the shunt catheter (Figure A,B). The cystic mass was independent of the pancreas. +Thus, a peritoneal pseudocyst around the VPS causing stomach obstruction was suspected and emergency laparotomy was performed. The large mass was localized in the left upper abdomen between the stomach and transverse colon mesentery, exactly at the omental bursa (Figure ). After the diffuse abdominal adhesions were removed, the cystic mass was opened and 1500 ml of clear fluid was drained. A part of the pseudocyst wall, consisting of the posterior wall of the stomach and colonic mesentery, was resected completely to open the pseudocyst (Figure ). The distal end of the VPS was placed inside the mass. Thus, pseudocyst as a complication of VPS was diagnosed. After examination of the cerebrospinal fluid from the tip of VPS catheter, we replaced the VPS catheter to another position in the abdomen. Histopathological examination of the resected specimen revealed fibrous tissue with inflammatory cell infiltration. After surgery, his appetite recovered and was discharged on the 8th postoperative day in a good condition. The postoperative course has been uneventful for 4 months after his last surgery. +The findings of fluid analysis were similar to those of cerebrospinal fluid analysis, with negative cultures and absence of microbial flora. +VPS is the most common treatment procedure for hydrocephalus; however, it is not free of complication. Abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst is a rare, but potentially life-threatening complication of VPS placement. It is seen as a thin-walled cystic mass around the shunt tip, which is filled with cerebrospinal fluid. The wall is composed of fibrous tissue without epithelial lining. The underlying mechanisms involved in the formation of the cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst remain unknown; however, inflammation, either sterile or infectious, is usually regarded as the main causative factor +. In our case, there was diffuse abdominal adhesion, suggesting a history of previous abdominal infection. +The symptoms of abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocysts in adult patients are abdominal pain, distention, and a palpable abdominal mass. Thus, adults predominantly present with abdominal signs only. On the other hand, in pediatric patients, symptoms of shunt malfunction, such as headache, nausea, and vomiting are more common +. +CT indicates a definitive diagnosis of abdominal cerebrospinal fluid pseudocyst, revealing a large fluid-filled collection delimited by a thin wall adjacent to the catheter tip. Differential diagnoses of an abdominal cystic mass include abdominal abscess, lymphocele, seroma, cystic lymphangioma, cystic mesothelioma, mesenteric cyst, benign cystic teratoma, cystic spindle-cell tumor, pancreatic pseudocyst, and duplication cyst +. In our case, the absence of infectious symptoms and lack of any inflammatory changes in surrounding tissues makes the diagnosis of the abscess highly unlikely. Furthermore, the absence of a history of pancreatic disease makes diagnosis of pancreatic pseudocyst unlikely. The preoperative diagnosis of pseudocyst around the VPS was made considering the clinical setting and the relationship of the cyst with VPS. +The time between the last VPS surgery and collection of abdominal cerebrospinal fluid has been reported to range from 3 weeks to 10 years +. Recently, both Pernas et al. and Sena et al. reported a case of abdominal pseudocyst formation 15 years after VPS placement, both of which seem to be the longest period reported previously in the English literature. In our case, the last VPS surgery was performed 21 years before the beginning of current symptoms, and no other abdominal surgery was performed during that period. This appears to be the longest period reported until date in the English literature. +Treatment of abdominal cerebrospinal fluid seems controversial. Therefore, many treatment algorithms have been described, such as laparotomy with wide excision of cystic walls, paracentesis and aspiration of the cystic fluid, CT-guided or ultrasound-guided aspiration of the pseudocyst. In the present case, exploratory laparotomy and excision of the cystic walls with fluid drainage was performed. Recently, laparosopic management, which is a useful tool, has been reported +; however, in our case, it seemed impossible to use this tool because of diffuse abdominal adhesion. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1527_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1527_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..81431d1eb6989beb057040e5b6a8b46bc4413bda --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1527_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A man in his 50s was transferred by ambulance to a nearby physician because of rupture of gastric varices.

Laboratory test results indicated pancytopenia, a prolonged prothrombin time-international normalized ratio, hypoalbuminemia, and jaundice. The result of the indocyanine green retention test was as high as 36.5%. The alpha-fetoprotein level was within the normal range of 2.8 ng/mL, but the protein induced by vitamin K absence/antagonist-II (PIVKA-II) level was as high as 163 mAU/mL.

Moreover, prominent splenomegaly, collateral circulation, and a small amount of ascites in the pelvis were confirmed . In gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethilene-triamine-pentaacetic acid-enhanced dynamic magnetic resonance imaging, the 39-mm nodule, which was enhanced in the early phase and had a low signal in the hepatocyte phase, was also observed in segment 8 of the liver. Aside from this tumor, a small nodule measuring 9 mm in diameter showed the same contrast pattern in segment 8 of the liver . CT during arterial portography showed perfusion defects in the 2 HCCs, and CT during arteriography showed hypervascular tumors in the early phase and peripheral enhancement in the late phase, which was consistent with typical HCC contrast patterns . These HCCs were enhanced simultaneously during arteriography of A8, and obvious vascular invasion was not observed . No other lesions suspected of HCC were found in the liver. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed high-risk esophageal varices (Lm, F2, Cb, RC-sign [+]). +On the basis of these findings, we diagnosed the patient as having HCCs (cT3N0M0, clinical stage III) with severe liver damage. Regarding liver damage, the Child-Turcotte-Pugh classification was class C (11 points), and the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score was 16 points, suggesting that he was a candidate for liver transplantation. Although there were 2 HCCs, one of them had a diameter exceeding 3 cm, which deviated from the Milan criteria. When applying the HCC therapy algorithm in Japan to this patient's comprehensive disease condition, only palliative care was recommended. Therefore, to determine treatment other than palliative care, we consulted with a transplant surgeon. As both HCCs were perfused with A8, locoregional therapy could be conducted to downstage HCC and maintain the liver reserve. Moreover, since this patient was relatively young, and his performance status was good, we considered liver transplantation as a curative treatment for HCC and sever liver damage. After confirming the wishes of the patient and his family, we decided to perform TACE following radical liver transplantation. Before these treatments, endoscopic varicocele ligation was performed for the esophageal varices. After confirming the disappearance of varices, lipiodol TACE was performed in segment 8 of the liver with 20 mg of epirubicin and gelatin sponges. There were neither postoperative complications nor changes in the Child-Turcotte-Pugh score. The PIVKA-II level decreased from 163 to 33 mAU/mL after TACE. +Abdominal dynamic CT on day 60 after TACE showed sufficient lipiodol deposition in the 2 HCCs in segment 8, but a tiny lipiodol deposit-free area remained . On the basis of these findings, we determined that the progress of HCCs was successfully downstaged within the Milan criteria, and this patient underwent liver transplantation 110 days after TACE. Surgery was performed using a left lobe graft (graft weight, 298 g; graft-to-standard liver volume ratio, 25.8%). The operative time was 13 h and 53 min, and the bleeding volume was 7,885 mL. +Pathologically, most of the tumor was successfully treated by TACE, except for the small remaining HCC where lipiodol deposition was insufficient.

Electrocardiography revealed abnormal Q waves and slight ST elevation in the aVl, V1, V2, and V3 leads. However, laboratory findings demonstrated creatine kinase (CK) and CK-MB levels within the normal range. Echocardiography revealed aneurysmal enlargement in the anterior wall and moderate-to-massive pericardial effusion, and severely reduced wall motion of LV. Emergency coronary angiography demonstrated an occluded left anterior descending artery (LAD; Fig. ). Circulatory support with an intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) catheter was started because of unstable hemodynamics. Enhanced computed tomography showed extensive aneurysm formation on the anterior LV wall and contrast from the inner cavity to the LV myocardium, with moderately accumulated pericardial effusion . Emergency surgery was performed, and his blood pressure ranged 80 to 90 / 50 to 60 mmHg, with 40 mmHg for PA and 20 mmHg for CVP. After the median sternotomy, bloody pericardial effusion (400 ml) was drained, and cardiac tamponade was relieved. A large aneurysmal formation was noted on the anterior LV wall, slightly attached to the pericardium . Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established with an ascending aorta and bicaval cannulation. After dissecting the pericardium, a 5-mm, slit-like LV rupture site was found in the aneurysm, which caused cardiac tamponade . Following cardiac arrest by antegrade cardioplegia, the middle aneurysm portion was dissected parallel to the LAD. The anterior myocardium comprised intramyocardial heavy and flesh hematoma and necrotic myocardium . Of note, the anterior and posterior papillary muscles were not involved. After removing the hematoma and debriding the necrotic tissue, the anterior wall defect measured 10 × 7 cm. Traction sutures were placed at each anticipated closing line. Then, two sheets of bovine pericardial patch were tailored to the anterior wall defect shape, which was 5 cm × 10 cm. The LV defect was closed using the patch with transmural interrupted mattress sutures to avoid excessive reduction in the ventricular volume . Subsequently, the ventricular edge was closed with interrupted sutures using two Teflon felt strips to reinforce the suture from the outside . A second running suture was used to ensure a secure left ventriculotomy closure, and another Teflon felt strip was placed in the middle of the edge . Cardiopulmonary bypass was easily weaned. He was extubated the following day, and the IABP was smoothly removed. Postoperative echocardiography revealed an improvement in LV function (LVEF:40%), without mitral regurgitation. Postoperative cardiac magnetic resonance image revealed a well-reconstructed LV. He was discharged without any complication 3 weeks postoperatively.

Notably, when anlotinib was discontinued for 7 days, the symptoms regressed. Based on this response, a 1-week on/1-week off regimen was adopted (8 mg, once daily). The dose reduction and active management of toxicities resulted in the maintenance therapy being well-tolerated. A follow-up abdominal CT in August 2020 indicated continuous PR (according to the RECIST version 1.1). Treatment with anlotinib was continued without grade 3 or 4 TRAE.

The largest size of internal papillary excrescences was 3.0 × 1.4 × 1.7 cm. Doppler flow could be detected in the internal septation, cystic wall and papillary excrescences. The resistive index of the cyst wall was 0.9. The right ovary was visible. There was no ascites. Considering the appearance and features on TUS, a primary diagnosis of malignant neoplasm was made. To further clarify the nature of the lesion, the patient underwent a CEUS examination, during which 2.4 ml of ultrasound contrast agent (SonoVue; Bracco SpA, Milan, Italy) was injected from the peripheral vein by bolus injection. Hyperenhancement of cystic wall, septations, and papillary excrescences were observed in the arterial phase on CEUS. The mass becomes hypo-enhancement in the late phase. The mural-nodule-like solid component measured approximately 1.7 × 1.7 cm and the smaller one 0.5 × 0.5 cm . Based on the contrast ultrasound results, the diagnosis of cystadenocarcinoma was first considered. +Surgical resection of the retroperitoneal mass was performed. During the operation, a mass approximately 5 cm in diameter was found in the Douglas cul-de-sac. It was soft and had no obvious adhesion to surrounding tissues. The tumour was cystic and solid, the cyst wall was thick, and the cyst contained solid tissue. Both ovaries and fallopian tubes are normal. Frozen biopsy showed (pelvic) adenocarcinoma, mainly with papillary growth. Da Vinci robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic tumour resection was conducted. Expert pathologists with more than 10 years of experience determined the pathologic results. Grossly, the tumour was multi-cystic, well-encapsulated and filled with serous fluid. The inner surface contained several papillary nodules protruding into the cavity. Under microscopic examination, the tumour tissues were arranged in a papillary shape; a glandular tube, invasive growth, haemorrhage and necrosis were observed. The tumour cells were abnormally shaped, nuclear division was visible, and nucleoli were obvious. The immunohistochemistry results were as follows: CK20(−), CK7(−), p53(+), CA125(+), CDX2(−), PAX-8(+), ER (+), PR(−), WT(+), calretinin CR(−) and vimentin(+) . The final pathological finding was high-grade serous adenocarcinoma. The patient’s serum CA125 levels decreased after the operation, but the level was slightly higher than the normal range (< 35 U/ml). The patient was treated with a combination of adjuvant carboplatin and paclitaxel (544 mg carboplatin and 268 mg paclitaxel intravenously every 3 weeks) at 3-week intervals for eight cycles. After two cycles of chemotherapy, her serum CA125 level decreased to a normal level. The patient has completed all chemotherapy cycles and is now in good condition. Her serum CA125 level has remained within the normal range as of publication of this report. Written consent was obtained from the patient for publication of the case. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1775_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1775_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..61c63d616ff7afa7c529338ec370cadc2e6dd293 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1775_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 5-year-old girl initially presented to our department due to worsening pain in the left proximal thigh. Osteosarcoma was suspected radiographically . Open biopsy revealed a high-grade conventional osteosarcoma. The tumor was initially staged as IIB (T2b N0 M0), and neoadjuvant chemotherapy was commenced in accordance with the NECO-95J protocol . After three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the pain was alleviated, the extra-osseous mass was dramatically reduced, and limb-salvage surgery was planned. As the tumor had already invaded the epiphyseal plate and epiphysis of the left distal femur at initial presentation, osteo-articular resection was thought necessary so as to obtain a negative surgical margin. At 6 years and 2 months old, distal femoral resection and temporary spacer insertion was performed . Both medial and lateral meniscuses were preserved. The spacer was hand-made, using an intramedullary nail of 7 mm in diameter and molded polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Because there were no commercially available molds fitting the distal femur of such a young child, we made the spacer by hand, imitating the original distal femur of the patient that had been just removed. After surgery, the left leg was externally fixed in a cast for 4 weeks. Partial weight bearing on the affected leg, supported by a hinged knee brace, was thereafter commenced ; however, the spacer was dislocated at 7 months post-operatively, preventing the patient from bearing weight and leading to bone atrophy in the left leg . +At 7 years and 8 months old, secondary surgery was performed with the aim of enabling weight bearing on the affected leg. In order to stabilize the spacer against the tibia, a custom-made ceramic spacer (Kyocera Corp., Japan) with a smooth straight stem of 8 mm in diameter had been ordered 3 months prior to the surgery . Intra-operatively, after the removal of the initial spacer, a 1-cm length of the distal edge of the residual femur was removed, but the periosteum and reactive membrane around the molded PMMA was preserved. The junction between the residual femur and the ceramic spacer was fixed with PMMA, and then covered with the preserved periosteum and membrane . After surgery, the left leg was placed in a cast for 4 weeks, after which the patient re-started partial weight bearing using a hinged knee brace as with the first spacer. The bone atrophy in the left leg was gradually resolved. At 18 months after the second surgery, the cortexes of the femur and tibia had thickened sufficiently for expandable mega-prosthesis; however, loosening of the stem and varus deformity was observed . A third surgical intervention was, therefore, planned. +At 9 years and 7 months old, the second spacer was removed, and the knee joint was reconstructed using a custom-made growing femoral prosthesis (Stryker Corp., Germany) with a curved porous stem of 8.5 mm in diameter fixed to the residual femur with two screws . Intra-operatively, the PMMA around the junction was already loosened, and the stem was easily removed. The residual femur was carefully reamed, and the stem was inserted. Cancellous bone chips from the proximal tibial epiphysis were grafted around the bone-prosthesis junction and then wrapped with the preserved periosteum and pseudo-periosteum membrane. The proximal surface of the tibia was also replaced, but the growth plate was preserved. Immediately after surgery, range of motion (ROM) exercise was started. Six weeks after surgery, partial weight bearing was permitted. Ten months after the third surgery, the patient was able to walk unsupported, and a radiograph showed further thickening of the cortex of the residual femur . At 10 years and 7 months old, the growing femoral prosthesis was extended by 1.1 cm. At the latest follow-up, at 11 years and 1 month old, the patient was 143 cm in height with a limb length discrepancy (LLD) of 5 cm and was able to walk unsupported using a 2.5 cm shoe lift (Video ). The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) score was 24 out of 30 points . The muscle strength of quadriceps recovered to manual muscle test (MMT) level 3, and active straight leg raising became possible without extension lag. The ROM of the left knee was 0–90°.

Gradually, the headache worsened to a severe headache episodically associated with vertigo, nausea, and vomiting. These episodes lasted for two to three days and got resolved. She was treated with flunarizine for suspected basilar migraine but did not show any response. From the last year, she had monthly exacerbations of headache associated with distressing vertigo, unsteadiness of gait, and right-sided body numbness. In between these episodes, she had a significant dull diffuse headache not responding to simple analgesia.

Few months after this event, she got admitted with right hemisensory loss with hemiplegia, and a demyelination disease or hemiplegic migraine was suspected. Second MRI was performed at this admission, and no abnormalities were detected again. Eight years ago, she had developed a left lower motor type facial nerve palsy, which was attributed to Bell's palsy. Within the last year, she was diagnosed to have depression and anxiety for which she was treated for few months. Other than the first two instances, she was not treated with steroids thereafter.

CSF examination revealed an elevated protein level of 55 mg/dl with normal glucose and cells with negative oligoclonal bands or TB-PCR. Vasculitis investigations including ANA, ANCA (ELISA and Immunofluorescence), and RF were negative. Syphilis serology and HIV testing were also negative. Chest radiograph, ultrasound abdomen, and CT scan of chest and abdomen did not reveal any mediastinal lymphadenopathy or focal lesions in visceral organ or evidence of any malignancy. Serum ACE levels (19 µ/l) and ionized calcium levels were normal.

Therefore, she underwent a dural biopsy from the thickened dura, which revealed large areas of caseous necrosis surrounded by epithelioid histiocytes and lymphoid cells with a few isolated giant cells in the adjacent vicinity . There were no features of vasculitis or sarcoidosis. TB-PCR of tissue and acid-fast bacilli were negative. Final conclusion was necrotizing granulomatous inflammation suggestive of dural tuberculosis. This diagnosis was presumed by the presence of necrotizing granulomatous necrosis with caseation with a strongly positive Mantoux test of 25 mm , and later was supported by a marked response to antituberculous medication. +We initiated her on antituberculous therapy (all four drugs for 3 months and 9 months of rifampicin and isoniazid) without streptomycin as she is already having vestibular symptoms.

Blood calcium was reduced, and blood phosphorus was normal. Bone marrow aspiration was MM. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was normal . +The patient had symptoms of lumbar nerve compression, and surgery was the first choice in clinical practice to relieve the symptoms of nerve compression, but he had anemia. Before surgery, anemia must be corrected and immunotherapy and targeted systemic therapy must be performed. According to the above results, bone marrow aspiration and CT-guided vertebral biopsy were performed to make a definite diagnosis. Pathological examination showed the coexistence of myeloma with CCRCC in hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining . There were monomorphic cells with clear cytoplasm and an intricate network of capillary vasculature in the CCRCC site. The variegated areas of atypical plasma cells infiltrated in CCRCC. There was no clear distinction between the two components. The CCRCC cells were positive for carbonic anhydrase IX (CA-IX), cytokeratin-8, and paired box gene 8 (Pax8); however, the myeloma cells were positive for CD38, CD138, multiple myeloma oncogene 1 (MUM1), and kappa and negative for lambda. +He received radiotherapy and immunotherapy and acquired a satisfying outcome.

Concurrently, there were high levels of intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) (108 pg/mL) with normal renal function (creatinine 61.61 µmol/L, estimated glomerular function rate (eGFR)> 60 mL/min), which suggested hyperparathyroidism secondary to vitamin D deficiency . Cholecalciferol supplementation was started with an initial oral dose of 70,000 UI/day.

Quadripolar DBS electrodes (Vercise Cartesia Directional, Boston Scientific) were implanted bilaterally into the posteroventral lateral globus pallidus internus with CT stereotactic guidance supplemented by preoperative MR imaging and microelectrode recording as described in detail elsewhere [, ]. +Subsequently, the electrodes were connected to an implantable pulse generator (Vercise PC, Boston Scientific). Postoperative stereotactic CT-imaging demonstrated appropriate electrode placement in the target bilaterally . Pallidal stimulation was started directly after completion of the surgery with the following settings: amplitude 2 mA, frequency 130 Hz, and triple monopolar electrode montage on both sides. +The dystonic movements improved rapidly after weaning from general anesthesia. On the second day after implantation of the electrodes, the medication with midazolam, clonidine, and hydromorphone could be reduced and was completely stopped over the next few days. The stimulation amplitude was increased in parallel to 2.9 mA. The rhabdomyolysis ceased, and the colitis subsided. The patient was discharged from the hospital 17 days after DBS surgery. +At 3-month follow-up, there was sustained marked improvement. No further episodes of dystonic storm had occurred. The patient could participate in daily activities again. She lived at home with her parents who were very satisfied with the result.

At initial echocardiographic examination 4 years ago typical left ventricular wall thickening (19 mm) and ‘apical sparing’ with abnormal longitudinal function was stated, suspicion of CA was raised. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was normal (60%). Yet, no aortic or mitral dysfunction was stated. No additional cardiac diagnostic modalities were done because of potential contrast agent side effects in absence of expected further therapeutic consequences. The patient continued his regular visits at the nephrology department. Due to arterial hypertension and LVH, regular antihypertensive and heart insufficiency medication was initiated (ramipril 5 mg b.i.d.; lercanidipine 10 mg b.i.d.). Anti-inflammatory therapy for ankylosing spondylitis consisted of 15 mg Prednisolone daily.

Respiratory weaning was complicated by recurrent hospital-acquired pneumonia with proof of Citrobacter koseri and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in bronchoalveolar lavage. Weaning remained without progress despite surgical tracheotomy and anti-infective treatment (Tazobactam/Piperacillin/Ciprofloxacin). Furthermore, the patient suffered from retractory Clostridium difficile enteritis, treated with vancomycine/fidaxomicine. A rectoscopy in suspicion of gastrointestinal bleeding (decrease in haemoglobin, peranal haemorrhage) revealed a defect of distal rectum with tissue necrosis. Aetiology of the defect remained unclear. An endosponge was inserted by laparoscopy and a protective ileostomy was placed, local peritonitis was seen intraoperatively. Two days after bowel surgery, the patient’s condition worsened with increasing demand of catecholamines in suspicion of abdominal septic shock.

Given several failed antipsychotic medication trials before, and positive response to clozapine, Mr. L, his brother, and his psychiatrist agreed that the known benefits of clozapine to the patient outweighed the potential risks as long as close monitoring of blood parameters. Mr. L’s brother, who was his health care proxy, was involved in extensive discussions about the risks of clozapine, and Mr. L agreed to the trial. +The recommendation of the hematology service was to continue clozapine treatment with close monitoring of complete blood count with differential test to track his eosinophil count even with the current level of eosinophilia since the patient was not showing signs of end-organ involvement.

She also suffered some episodes of low-grade fever and fatigue and dyspnea on efforts. In March 2020, chest CT showed lung nodules characterized by net margins and oval shape, in peripheral or subpleural site, especially in the inferior lobes. The biggest nodule, 9 mm, with polygonal shape, was in the anterior basal segment of the righ inferior lobe . +Pulmonary function tests were in the normality range and revealed a normal diffusing capacity, albeit at the lower limits of the normal (DLCO/VA 73%); autoimmunity markers were in the normal range.

BAL differential cell count showed macrophages (79%), lymphocytes (18%), neutrophil granulocytes (3%), and a CD4/CD8 lymphocyte ratio of 7.8. In both BAL and BAS, several macrophages with numerous intracytoplasmic exogenous metallic material and reflective dust were seen at optical microscopy. Owing to the SARS-CoV2 pandemic, she was absent from workplace from March to August 2020 and in such period her symptoms ameliorated. At work, the woman was involved in milling and polishing monolithic zirconia structures, then layered with ceramic.

Apart from Co, the same elements could be detected, always by ICP-MS, on a paraffin-embedded BAS sample. On BAL cytocentrifugated slides, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled to Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX) showed numerous inorganic particles, containing Zr and Aluminum (Al), the latter probably as oxide, within the macrophages . In addition, a signal attributed to W was detected but not localized in a specific image detail. About a month after return at work, we investigated metal concentrations in urine (U) and in exhaled breath condensate (EBC), collected either at the beginning and at the end of a workweek, by ICP-MS. We could demonstrate a 6 times weekly increase of urinary concentrations of W (0.18 µg/L vs. 1.1 µg/L). We concluded for a diagnosis of early work-related pneumoconiosis due to abnormal occupational exposure to metals. We advised periodical chest CT and pulmonologist monitoring (the next after 6 months), along with the prescription to strictly wear respiratory personal protective equipment (PPE) at work. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_216_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_216_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..6827365b99be246986ec872a8724e7d598f5e14e --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_216_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A case of tuberculosis of the cervix presenting as cervical carcinoma is being reported for its rarity. +A 26-year-old P2L2 Indian lady, housewife by occupation, presented with chief complaints of pain abdomen, irregular bleeding and discharge per vaginum for three years.

There was no medical or family history of kidney disease. She had no infection in the last few months, and her vital signs were normal. Her height was 137 cm, and her weight was 37 kg, which was 7 kg heavier than usual. Physical examination showed that she had marked generalized edema. She had no cutaneous purpura, abdominal pain, or joint pain, suggesting that she did not have IgA vasculitis. Urinalysis and urine chemistry results were as follows: urinary protein, 2165 mg/dL; urinary protein-creatinine ratio, 22 g/gCr; urinary red blood cell count, > 100 /high power field; and urinary β2-microglobulin, 8579 μg/L.

Her physical and laboratory findings suggested no autoimmune diseases or infections. Hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis C antibody test results were also negative. Liver disease-related IgA nephropathy was ruled out because ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed ascites in the absence of portosystemic shunt and cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis was ruled out because blood tests were negative for cryoglobulin. Based on these results, nephrotic nephritis with hypocomplementemia was suspected, and a renal biopsy was thus performed. +Light microscopic studies showed mesangial cell proliferation and increased mesangial matrix with lobulation in almost all glomeruli. Endocapillary proliferation in the glomeruli and a few neutrophil infiltrations in the capillaries of the glomeruli were observed . Additionally, periodic acid-methenamine-silver staining showed some double contours of the glomerular basement membrane ; these are all characteristic findings of MPGN. The size of the glomeruli was within the normal range, and there were 2.6 glomeruli per square millimeter. The glomerular density of 13 minimal change nephrotic syndrome patients (mean 11.8 ± 3.6 years) with normal birth weight was 3.6 ± 1.1 / per square millimeter , indicating that the glomerular density of this patient was within the normal range or slightly lower. Immunofluorescent studies showed that deposits of IgA and C3 were dominantly detected in the mesangial regions, and were also slightly detected along the capillary walls. In addition, IgA deposits were stronger than those of C3 . IgA subclass staining revealed stronger staining for IgA2 stains than for IgA1 stains . Electron microscopic studies showed electron-dense deposits in the subendothelial, subepithelial, and paramesangial regions. Mesangial cell interposition was observed . The subepithelial deposits were not hump-like and podocytes were slightly sparse. No disease-specific glomerular deposit structures such as renal amyloidosis or monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease were observed on EM . Based on these aforementioned findings, we diagnosed this girl with IgA-dominant MPGN. Hypoalbuminemia was treated by intravenous infusion of albumin, and furosemide was also administered. After the biopsy, the patient was treated with three courses of methylprednisolone pulse therapy (MPT; one course; 30 mg/kg of methylprednisolone for three consecutive days), followed by oral prednisolone (1 mg/kg/day) and mizoribine (MZR). Lisinopril was used to treat hypertension and proteinuria. Although hypocomplementemia improved after the three courses of MPT, nephrotic-range proteinuria and hypoalbuminemia remained; therefore, two courses of MPT were additionally administered, and the immunosuppressant was changed from MZR to cyclosporine (CsA). The dose of CsA was initially started at 2 mg/kg/day. The CsA blood level target for single-point concentration 2 h post-dose was set at 600–700 ng/mL for approximately 2 months, after which the dosage was adjusted to 450–550 ng/mL. Subsequently, the urinary protein-creatinine ratio decreased from 4 to 0.8 g/gCr, and serum albumin tended to increase. She was discharged on the 155th day of hospitalization. The dose of prednisolone was changed every other day and gradually decreased. Decreased urinary protein was detected 13 months after the treatment . A second renal biopsy was performed 22 months after the start of treatment, and improvement in glomerular lesions was found . Cyclosporine nephropathy was not observed. On the second biopsy, positive deposits of IgA were detected mainly in the mesangial regions and also slightly along the capillary walls. Deposits of C3 and IgA1 were not detected, but very slight deposits of IgA2 were present in the mesangial regions and along the capillary walls. . No deterioration of kidney function was observed after almost 2 years of treatment. The levels of C3 improved after three courses of methylprednisolone pulse therapy, and has remained normal since then. Posterior subcapsular cataract was considered as an adverse effect of steroids because no deterioration in visual acuity was observed during the follow-up period. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2229_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2229_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3e13e98122e728ee831e049efe91e74dbb042789 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2229_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +A 44 year old Caucasian male was referred by his primary care physician for a recurrent asymptomatic left sided massive pleural effusion.

After a few minutes of manual CPR by her family and paramedics, mechanical CPR was initiated using the Lund University Cardiopulmonary Assist System-2 device (Physio-Control Inc.). The patient was defibrillated twice for ventricular fibrillation. She received multiple doses of epinephrine, and spontaneous circulation returned after 29 min of mechanical CPR. The device was used in its appropriate position. +However, as pulseless ventricular tachycardia was still observed, cardiac support with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) was initiated. Coronary angiography revealed no new lesions in the coronary arteries. A noncontrast CT scan was carried out to investigate the cause of cardiac arrest. This revealed multiple bilateral anterior rib fractures due to the chest compressions, with no evidence of other injuries . The cause of the arrest was considered to be hypokalemia (admission level K = 2.6 mmol/L) induced by multiple diuretic drugs. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit for continued resuscitation. Furthermore, she received continuous infusions of unfractionated heparin based on active coagulation time. She was given prasugrel and apixaban because of her atrial fibrillation and high risk of stent thrombosis. +On hospital day 3, her blood pressure gradually decreased, and ECMO flow could not be maintained the following day. The patient had already received more than 20 units of blood products and was on a high-dose vasopressor. Blood examination revealed progressive coagulation abnormalities . The results were as follows: activated partial thromboplastin time, 136 s; prothrombin time activity, 31%; and platelet count, 25 × 109/L. Abdominal ultrasound revealed an echo-free space around the liver and spleen. An emergency laparotomy was carried out due to the massive bloody ascites observed on contrast-enhanced CT . Intraoperatively, a grade 2 splenic injury (according to the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma) was observed with a capsular tear and a 2 cm laceration at the inferior pole. The spleen was adherent to the retroperitoneum and diaphragm. The abdomen was temporarily closed using an open negative-pressure therapy system, ABThera (KCI). The volume of blood loss was greater than 10 L. As the patient was hemodynamically stable the next day, VA-ECMO was discontinued. Her coagulation abnormalities were resolved after management with the interruption of antithrombotic agents, surgical hemostasis, and blood transfusions. Abdominal closure was achieved on day 6.

His clinical history revealed a progressive history of right flank pain, worsening right leg claudication and a persistently cold sensation in his right foot. He also complained of progressive breathlessness on exertion, clinically suggestive of deteriorating CCF. There was no history of trauma or previous surgery. Ankle-brachial pressure measurements revealed a reduced index of 0.76 on the right, and a normal index of 1.35 on the left with corresponding toe pressures of 55 mmHg and 143 mmHg respectively. A contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan showed an isolated right common iliac artery (CIA) to right common iliac vein AVF . His aorta was normal in caliber, measuring 19 mm at the aortic bifurcation. The aneurysmal segment began immediately distal to the aortic bifurcation at the origin of the right CIA, with no normal segment of CIA evident. The aneurysm measured 9.4 cm in maximal diameter and extended to within 17 mm of the right iliac bifurcation. It was impossible to differentiate the arterial wall from the venous wall in the aneurysmal segment on either ultrasound or CT scans. His inferior vena cava (IVC) was grossly distended with a uniform diameter of 36 mm in its full course. +Pre-operative discussions focused on finding an endovascular strategy to solve the problem. As no normal caliber proximal right CIA existed, an isolated iliac covered stent was impossible as no proximal sealing zone existed. This required sealing a proximal stent in his aorta. Bifurcated endografts have been used to seal ilio-iliac fistulae previously . The aortic bifurcation diameter was 19 mm in this case and although some devices have reported success negotiating smaller aortic bifurcations , we felt an aorto-bi-iliac graft would be in danger of being compressed at the bifurcation with a high risk of occlusion. As a result, a hybrid approach with deployment of an aorto-uni-iliac (AUI) device followed by a femoro-femoral bypass was planned. Our patient was operated upon in our endovascular suite (Siemens) under spinal anesthesia. Both common femoral arteries (CFA) were controlled and cannulated with 6Fr sheaths (Johnston & Johnston). His aorta was cannulated with a 0.035 wire Bentson wire (Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN, USA) via each CFA with the assistance of an angled catheter (Kumpe, Cook Medical). A diagnostic flush pigtail catheter was placed in his aorta via the contralateral limb. A stiff 0.035 Amplatz wire (Amplatz Super Stiff, Boston Scientific) was exchanged as access to the ipsilateral limb. Following an angiogram to confirm renal anatomy, an aorto-uni-iliac device (Zenith Renu, Cook Medical) was deployed from immediately below his renal arteries to his mid right external iliac artery, thus occluding his right internal iliac artery. A 14 × 10 mm Amplatzer occlusion device (AGA Medical Corp, MN, USA) was deployed via the contralateral limb to his proximal left CIA. A completion angiogram confirmed exclusion of the ilio-iliac AVF. A right to left femoro-femoral bypass with 8 mm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was performed to re-establish flow to his left leg as well as providing left internal iliac perfusion. +On the first postoperative day, the mass was no longer pulsatile and the machinery-like murmur in the right iliac fossa was absent. A CT scan on postoperative day two confirmed a patent AUI endovascular graft and patent femoro-femoral bypass, as well as confirming exclusion of contrast from the right iliocaval system . His right foot no longer felt cool and the postoperative ankle brachial index (ABI) confirmed an index of 1.05 on the right and 0.95 on the left, with corresponding toe pressures of 119 mmHg and 117 mmHg respectively. He was discharged after seven days without complication. At a clinic one month later, his claudication had resolved completely and he no longer had symptoms suggestive of CCF.

In contrast, the tumor marker levels of carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, and DUPAN-2 were within the normal range. +Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) revealed a circumscribed well-encapsulated cystic mass in the pancreas tail with protruding vascularity-rich components inside. A hypervascular area that appeared like collateral vessels was also observed on the surface of the tumor . Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT showed a heterogeneously enhancing mass beside the splenic hilum with a large non-enhancing portion inside. From the arterial to portal phase, strong enhancement was observed both in the rim and the edge of the protruding solid components with the hypoattenuating area inside the solid lesions. During the portal to delay phase, all of these were gradually isoattenuated compared to the surrounding pancreatic parenchyma except for the non-enhancing portion . Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed low signal intensity in the solid components on T1-weighted imaging and slightly higher signal intensity on T2-weighted imaging compared with the pancreas parenchyma. Additionally, the large non-enhancing portion on CT appeared as a bright signal on T2-weighted imaging, indicating cystic or necrotic change . +Based on these findings, we considered pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm, solid pseudopapillary neoplasm, and hemangioma in the differential diagnosis. Although its morphological structure is untypical, mucinous cystic neoplasm was also considered given the patient’s sex and tumor location. Invasive carcinoma of the pancreas was excluded from the differential diagnosis. EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNA) was not performed considering the risk of cystic puncture and bleeding. We performed distal pancreatectomy with regional lymph node dissection for this disease. The pancreatic parenchyma was resected above the left edge of the superior mesenteric artery.

Immunohistochemically, the specimen stained positively for CD34, a mesenchymal marker , but negatively for cytokeratin AE1/3, an epithelium marker (data not shown). Furthermore, CD99, Bcl-2, and STAT6 were diffusely positive , whereas beta-catenin, chromogranin, and synaptophysin were all negative (data not shown). Therefore, we diagnosed this tumor as SFT of the pancreas. Further, the tumor showed an increased mitotic rate (ten mitoses per ten high-power fields), indicating its malignant potential. +Considering the similarity of meningioma, which was the patient’s past disease, to intracranial SFT, we conducted a histopathological review of her brain tumor.

A subsequent abdominal enhancement CT revealed that the mass might be lymphoma . As the pathological result was critical for her diagnosis, we conducted a left inguinal lymph node puncture showing no abnormal lymphocytes. Consequently, a whole left inguinal (2 × 1 × 0.5 cm) lymph node was resected. The pathological morphology revealed that the lymph node structure was replaced with substantial amounts of lymphoid tissue and fibrosis. Thus, the diagnosis of Castleman’s disease was established according to the pathological exam . +Although hyponatremia was corrected, her hemoglobulin levels decreased from 109 g/L to 96 g/L. With her consent, we conducted a biopsy of the enlarged abdominal lymph node by using a celioscope. The pathological exam disclosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with an anaplastic subtype . +After the diagnosis of lymphoma was established, the patient was transferred to the Department of Hematology for further treatment. For the etiology treatment of B-cell lymphoma, the chemotherapy of cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin and prednisone (CHOP) with rituximab (a monoclonal antibody against the protein CD20) was administered. The patient’s serum sodium level stabilized without fluid restriction. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2348_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2348_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..e17d6e797615abe0ed71822f10a7760558de4c35 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2348_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +A 73-year-old male presented to the emergency department with complaints of fevers peaking at 104 °F, chills, and rigors for 4–5 days.

Results of serologic evaluation of metabolic (vitamin B12, thyroid stimulating hormone), infectious (human immunodeficiency virus, rapid plasma reagin), and autoimmune (anti-nuclear antibodies, anti-Ro/La, aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein) etiologies of transverse myelitis were normal. The patient was trialed on high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone (1000 mg daily for 5 days) for transverse myelitis.

A serum IL-6 level was normal. A serum TNF-alpha level was not obtained. MRI of the brain demonstrated two new intracranial metastases. MRI of the spine showed progression of transverse myelitis from T3 to T11 , now clearly outside the radiation field. Body PET/CT revealed worsening osseous metastatic lesions; therefore the patient began dabrafenib and trametinib. Given his ascending transverse myelitis despite optimal therapy other options including tocilizumab and infliximab were considered. Based on the low IL-6 level, the patient was started on infliximab. Spinal MRI 3 weeks after the first dose of infliximab showed a dramatic reduction of the level of the T2 cord signal abnormality back to T6 to T10 with corresponding improvement in sensory level and muscle spasms. Continued treatment with infliximab led to additional incremental gains on imaging but without further clinical improvement. He subsequently developed systemic progression on dabrafenib and tremetinib (but with stable central nervous system disease) and ultimately succumbed to his disease. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2397_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2397_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..4a39f0e7db9c6ea88f5243876096ccb8810caab9 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2397_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +A 20-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department with abdominal pain after hitting a tree while riding a sled 10 h ago. +The patient’s symptoms started after the trauma, and the abdominal pain worsened over time. +The patient had no previous medical history. +The patient did not smoke and had no relevant family history. +At the time of admission, the patient’s Glasgow Coma scale was 15/15, blood pressure was 120/70 mmHg, body temperature was 36.3 °C, heart rate was 94 bpm, respiratory rate was 20 breaths per minute, and oxygen saturation in room air was 98%.

The patient denied fever, nausea, vomiting, bowel changes, or signs of blood in his stool. Though a proper rectal exam could not be performed due to pain, a 6 mm mass with surrounding erythema was noticed adjacent to the rectum in the 4 o'clock position. A diagnosis of perirectal abscess was made and incision and drainage were performed. One week after the procedure, the patient described a “ripping” sensation during a large bowel movement that led to worsening of his rectal pain. He was referred to a colorectal surgeon for presumed anal fissure, but confirmatory rectal exam was not possible due to physical discomfort. A subsequently scheduled rectal exam under general anesthesia was cancelled by the patient, and he was lost to follow-up. +During an unrelated consult for weight-loss surgery three months later, the bariatric surgeon discovered that the patient had new onset pruritus ani for nearly one month. Evidence of anorectal pain, hemorrhoids, fissures, or fistulas were absent at this time. Patient was prescribed lidocaine 5% topical ointment for two weeks PRN. Four months later, at the patient's request, the bariatric surgeon rechecked for the possibility of an anal fissure. Between these office visits, patient continued to have rectal pain (though of diminishing severity), bright red blood on toilet paper, pruritus ani, blood in his semen, loose stools, and the onset of outright FI. Patient attempted self-treatment of his FI with stool-bulking agents, fiber, psyllium, lidocaine cream, and Sween Cream, but with no relief. As these conservative measures failed, it was determined that anorectal manometry was warranted, but this test showed no abnormalities. Both the physician and patient decided that DxHA injections were the next best option. One week later, 4 X 1 mL injections of DxHA were administered approximately 5 mm above the dentate line at the posterior, anterior, left lateral, and right lateral positions without complications. +One month following DxHA injections, the patient underwent a previously scheduled screening colonoscopy because of a significant family history of colon cancer in his mother (diagnosed at 58 years; died at 62 years). A 5 mm sessile serrated polyp in the ascending colon and a 3 mm hyperplastic polyp in the sigmoid colon were removed during this procedure, but it was also noted by the gastroenterologist that a 15 mm benign-appearing submucosal lesion was present in the distal rectum (~5 cm from the anus). Unsure of what this lesion could be, a flexible sigmoidoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound were ordered to be performed two weeks later. On flexible sigmoidoscopy, the bulging submucosal lesion was again noted ~6-7 cm from the anal verge and endoscopic ultrasound showed this mass to be a homogenous, hypoechoic lesion (0.79 cm X 2.98 cm) that was contiguous with the muscularis propria. Fine-needle aspiration of the rectal lesion was performed and sent to pathology. +Under microscopy, the hospital pathologist described the rectal FNA samples as having clusters of reactive macrophages, acute inflammation, giant cells, mucin, and multiple, spherically shaped dark microparticles . Though noted as clearly foreign by the pathologist, the presence and etiology of these particles were perplexing. After calling the gastroenterologist to describe these findings, additional history attained by the gastroenterologist from the patient revealed the recent history of DxHA injections. Thus, it was surmised that the rectal lesion and corresponding histopathology were both a result of the patient's FI treatment. +Unfortunately, though there was initial improvement with the DxHA injections, at the two-month follow-up appointment the patient described worsened FI (several episodes daily, especially after bowel movements).

On the initial examination at rest, the heart rate was 119 b.p.m., blood pressure at upper limb 93/54 mmHg, femoral artery pulses were weakly palpable and the pulse-oximetric measured oxygen saturation was 99%. Cardiovascular examination revealed a 3/6 systolic murmur at the lower-left sternal border, the lungs were clear. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a CoA with a vessel diameter of about 1 mm and an associated systolic peak pressure gradient of 66 mmHg and a low-velocity Doppler-flow pattern obtained from the coeliac trunk. The arterial duct was closed, the aortic valve normal. The hypertrophied left ventricle contracted well, but with a significant mitral regurgitation and associated restrictive interatrial communication of 2–3 mm with a turbulent left-to-right shunt . Considering the body weight (1.2 kg), vascular lesion, haemodynamics, and risk-benefit assessment, we decided on palliative treatment with a percutaneous transcatheter procedure using the AA access from the right arm. Following written informed consent of the parents, the baby was catheterized for interventional treatment of the CoA in balanced analgo-sedation, the right armpit was prepared in an aseptic condition . For positioning, the head was slightly turned to the left, the upper right limb was angled away from the chest by about 100–120°. After axillary artery puncture, a 0.014-inch Hi-Torque Balance Middleweight (BMW) guide wire (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, IL, USA) could easily be advanced to the descending aorta (DAO) and a 2.7 Fr arterial leader Cath (Vygon GmbH, Aachen, Germany) was launched over the wire within the DAO. The position was confirmed by injection of a small amount of contrast medium; the BMW guide wire was exchanged to a 0.021-inch guidewire for subsequent placement of a 4 Fr Glide-sheath Slender (Terumo Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) in the right subclavian artery. After removal of the sheath mandrill, a 0.014-inch Hi-Torque Extra S'port guide wire (Abbott Vascular, Abbott Park, IL, USA) was additionally positioned in the DAO for the interventional procedure and the 0.021-inch guide wire was removed. The invasively measured blood pressure was 160/54 mmHg despite sedation. Angiography through the 4 Fr sheath using 1-ml bolus injection of contrast medium revealed a bovine aortic arch and an extreme coarctation with a diameter of <1 mm and about 4 mm post-stenotic DAO . For stenting, the CoA, a 4 × 8 mm Xience Pro coronary stent (Abbott Vascular, Temecula, CA, USA) was advanced over the S’port guide wire through the 4 Fr sheath. After confirming the correct position, the stent was expanded to a diameter of about 4.3 mm. The angiography showed the desired result with a harmonically modelled stent on the vessel wall without pressure gradients . Immediately after placement of the stent, the left subclavian artery showed a temporarily decreased blood flow, which looked like a contrast agent-induced vasospasm or may be an air bubble, but without any sequalae. The single intravenous administration of 100 U heparin after placement of the sheath was supplemented with a second dose of 50 U heparin, followed by heparin in a continuous infusion of 300 U/day for further 3 days, before 2 mg/kg of body weight aspirin was administered orally.

CTP showed that cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the left hemisphere were lower than those in the right hemisphere, while time to peak (TTP) was significantly higher . +Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) revealed occlusion at the beginning of the left ICA and 75 % stenosis in the right ICA according to the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial criteria . The right ICA stent (XACT 6–8*40 mm, Abbott) implantation was performed after DSA . During the procedure, there was no significant decrease in blood pressure or heart rate, nor any neurological deterioration. Unfortunately, 8 h after CAS, the patient developed restlessness, accompanied by a marked increase in blood pressure (170/100 mmHg). After the exclusion of intracranial hemorrhage by CT, sedation and antihypertensive treatment were used, and the blood pressure was controlled below 120/80 mmHg. However, the patient developed left limb hemiplegia 24 h after the procedure. Then one-stop CTA/CTP was performed again. Intracranial vessels were comparable to that before CAS . CTP showed CBV and CBF in the left hemisphere were improved and TTP was reduced significantly. But CBV and CBF in the right hemisphere were not only lower than pre-operation, but also lower than that in the left hemisphere . Dynamic Transcranial Doppler (TCD) was also performed. Flow velocity of the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) decreased 24 h after CAS, while that of the right anterior cerebral artery (ACA) increased significantly . We supposed that hypoperfusion in the right hemisphere might be caused by left-to-right blood theft. Then hypervolemic treatment (intravenous infusion of saline 3000 ml per day) was accepted and the blood pressure was maintained above 140/90 mmHg. After 3 days, the patient’s restlessness and left limb hemiplegia were completely relieved. No recurrence of cerebral ischemia occurred during 3 months of telephone follow-up. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_251_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_251_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..0760502bedb00ad7f3f9a8475215d8657b3023c7 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_251_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ +A 33-year-old man without a previous medical or surgical history presented with chief complaints of abdominal pain and vomiting.

Laboratory data were unremarkable: C-reactive protein level, 0.16 mg/dL; white blood cell count, 9600 /μL; neutrophil count, 91.3%; and lymphocyte count, 5.4%. Ultrasonography and radiography revealed no findings that could cause abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a 45-mm-sized mass with partial calcification in the ileum , without any signs of invagination, obstruction, or volvulus. No other findings suggesting the cause of abdominal pain were observed on CT. The patient was diagnosed with an ileal tumor. After the examination, the patient’s condition improved spontaneously. Several weeks later, for detailed examination of the tumor, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed, which revealed a tumor with hypointense signal on both T1-weighted (T1WI) and T2-weighted images (T2WI), and isointense signal on gadolinium-enhanced T1WI . Based on these findings, the differential diagnoses were a gastrointestinal stromal tumor, chronic distending hematoma, leiomyoma, and CFT. +Laparoscopic surgery was performed for the pathological diagnosis and treatment. Two 5-mm ports were placed through a vertical 4-cm skin incision in the umbilicus using EZ access and Lap Protector (Hakko Medical, Nagano, Japan). Intraoperatively, a white-colored tumor was found in the ileum, 100 cm from the terminal ileum . Careful observation of the entire abdominal cavity did not detect any other tumors, lymph node metastasis, or dissemination. After careful observation, the tumor was lead extracorporeally through the umbilical incision and a partial resection of the ileum was performed. Reconstruction was performed with a functional end-to-end anastomosis. Macroscopic findings revealed that the tumor was pedunculated and located on the antimesenteric side. Microscopic findings revealed that the tumor extended from the muscularis propria to the subserosa. A few spindle cells and infiltration of lymphoplasmacytic cells were observed with dense hyalinized collagen and interspersed calcification in the background . Immunohistochemical findings revealed negative or nearly negative results for CD34, c-kit, DOG-1, desmin, S100, anaplastic lymphoma kinase, vimentin and smooth muscle actin. Factor-XIIIa was positive. The MIB-1 labeling index was less than 1%. Over 40% of the plasma cells in the stroma were IgG4 positive. The tumor was eventually diagnosed as a CFT.

During maintenance phase patient attended clinical observation once every 15 days. +SLIT with nPru p 3 was safe and well tolerated because it did not elicit any adverse reaction. The metabolic parameters namely cholesterol, albumin and triglycerides returned to normal values. During the build-up phase the first 3 doses induced oral pruritus and paresthesias of tongue and lips however, increasing the doses with no additional pharmacological treatment was decided. We also emphasize the excellent adaptation of the patient to treatment, and the full compliance with the schedule of allergen administration and clinical and laboratorial tests. +Regarding the allergologic study, a reduction of the mean diameter in the SPT to nPru p 3 was observed, whereas no relevant changes on serum specific IgE, IgG, IgG1 and IgG4 to nPru p 3 were detected . Besides the excellent clinical and SPT responses a non-expected maintenance of nPru p 3 IgE and IgG levels were observed after twelve months of treatment. +Regarding the clinical efficacy, DBPCFC was positive at the first dose (18.75 g) before SLIT, inducing SAO and rhinitis, and it was negative at a cumulative dose of 150 g (maximum dose, 93.75 g) since the first challenge tests within the treatment period (4 months). We stress that the clinical symptoms improved steadily after the first month of SLIT, and by the 3rd month she had no major vegetables dietary restrictions, except for nuts, fruits and pepper. The antihistamines consumption markedly reduced. She was advised to avoid any nuts and pepper. Nevertheless when accidental intake occurred she only reported slight SAO symptoms, the majority with no need for medication. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2755_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2755_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..a80194d2c4ec84476ce0b787a7f7cb0af83446b3 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2755_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +The 22-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital on August 25, 2021 with the chief complaint of “double knee joints pain for 10+ years, aggravation for 2+ months, accompanied by groin pain for 2+ weeks”. 10+ years ago, she had recurrent pain in both knees without obvious inducement, occasionally with knee valgus and knee dislocation. 2+ years ago, she developed low back pain which was relieved after rest, but the spine moved freely. 1+ years ago, she experienced severe pain in her low back and loss of mobility.

The study was performed with BIOTRONIK technology (Multicath study catheter), a non-deflectable 7F quadripolar catheter with 2 mm tip electrode to record the His electrogram, a non-deflectable decapolar catheter with 5 pairs of CS electrodes.

Mapping with the ablation catheter of the entire posteroseptal, posterior, posterolateral and lateral region of the mitral annulus, we never saw an AV shorter than those observed in the CS; the shorter AV into left chambers was observed on posteriorseptal región (delta-V of 5 ms), then we decided to apply radiofrecuency (RF) on there (temperature of 60 degrees, 55 watts and 60 s of application); finally it was not successful. +We returned to the right cavities decided to map in sinus rhythm the entire CS from its proximal to the most distal portion, observing AP recordings with very short AV along the CS, the shortest delta-V was − 20 ms, always on proximal CS (CS 9–10), Fig. B.

We could recognize the accessory pathway was ablated because during pacing from the right atrium a normal PR segment can be observed on the surface electrocardiogram, without the presence of a delta wave . If accessory pathway were still present, pacing from the atrium at a basic cycle higher than junctional rhythm would reveal the presence of the accessory pathway (delta wave on electrocardiogram). +The radiological projection suggests we were probably in the posterior coronary vein; however, a venography should have been performed to identify that site; there is a anatomical variation of the CS ostium.

The neurological examination findings were normal, and he had previously been in good health without any infectious diseases or immune disorders. Enhanced pituitary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple nodules in the suprasellar region with slightly shorter T1 signals, compression of the optic chiasma, and compression of the superior pituitary margin in a region of approximately 19 mm × 12 mm × 21 mm. The preoperative diagnosis was craniopharyngioma . The patient's routine laboratory results were normal. The tumor was removed by an endoscopic transnasal transsellar tubercle sphenoid platform approach. Intraoperatively, the tumor was located in the suprasellar suboptic space with cystic changes and was connected to the posterior part of the pituitary gland. Postoperative MRI showed a patchy mixed signal in the sellar region . Postoperative histopathology revealed hyperplasia, showing nests and a papillary arrangement of epithelial nests with a fenestrated arrangement of marginal cells in some areas; additionally, ghost cells were seen with calcification .

She reported a transient history of eye redness but no history of photophobia, floaters, flashes, or scotoma in her right eye. During the systemic review of the patient, no symptoms of oral ulcers, vitiligo, alopecia, headaches, or joint pain were revealed.

Specifically, the IL-10 level in the vitreous humour was 39.4 pg/mL, while the IL-6 level was 37.5 pg/mL. The vitreous humour was positive for Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) DNA as determined by the polymerase chain reaction (9.90E + 03 copy/mL), and the vitreous was negative for EBV-IgG. Genetic testing by next-generation sequencing of the vitreous humour revealed several oncogenic mutations, including TP53, JAK2, and FAS. Vitreoretinal lymphoma of the right eye was suspected. Subsequently, whole-body positron emission tomography (PET-CT) showed a hypermetabolic nodule in the retroperitoneal left adrenal area, suggesting a malignant tumour. A core-needle biopsy of the retroperitoneal mass revealed malignant morphological features, including an irregular karyotype, karyokinesis, and karyorrhexis . Further immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization (by a Nikon camera and software, × 400 magnification.

Doppler ultrasound on the neck revealed bilateral thyroid nodules and a substantive bump at the entrance of the thorax. Chest radiograph showed a tracheal shift . Enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan of the neck noted a large substantive mass below the right lower pole of the thyroid with calcification, and two lobes of the thyroid both had nodules without any hint of lymph nodes . Core needle biopsy and immunohistochemistry revealed papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). +The positron emission tomography-computed tomography indicated that the lump from the thoracic inlet area to upper mediastinum had high metabolism, and malignant neoplasm should be considered. Moreover, the tumor, along with surrounding invasion, caused the trachea to migrate to the left. However, the metabolic image of the mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes increased mildly, which was non-specific. Both sides of the thyroid might also favor nodular goiter. Laryngoscopy showed right vocal cord paralysis. The bronchoscopy and cytopathology of the brush fluid were normal . The tumor mark and thyroid function tests were almost normal. +After all the examinations, we still had no idea whether the mass metastasized to the substernum or originated there. We opted to diagnose after excision. During operation, we found multiple nodules in both sides of the thyroid, as well as the mass, which was right behind the sternum, outside of the trachea and inside of the right carotid artery. The mass was an observed invasion of the trachea, carotid artery, and the recurrent laryngeal nerve. And, it was so conglutinated with the right carotid artery that it could not be removed completely. Thus, we firstly took total thyroidectomy with cervical lymph dissection of the right VI area. Subsequently, we used sternotomy to excise more of the lump after separating it from the local (right carotid artery, trachea, and recurrent laryngeal nerve) gradually; silver clips were left to mark the residual cavity in preparation for radiotherapy. Postoperative pathology confirmed that the lump was primary ectopic substernal papillary thyroid cancer, and the eutopic thyroid was nodular goiter. After surgery, the patient had an excellent recovery. +However, she refused to use postoperative radioactive iodine (RAI) or take adjuvant external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT), which had been planned before surgery. Instead, she took Euthyrox (100 mg every morning) for relapse prevention. +Six months later, she complained of dyspnea. CT showed that the trachea narrowed in the level of the thoracic inlet, next to the silver clips . Bronchoscopy confirmed that it was blocked by something new, and pathological diagnosis revealed that it came from thyroid cancer but was poorly differentiated. Tracheal stent was inserted via bronchoscopy to reconstruct the airway for free respiration . After another 6 months of using Euthyrox, a second tracheal stent was inserted because of recurring dyspnea . +After diagnosis and treatment of this woman, the following points were obtained. +A patient with PTC usually has an exciting 5-year overall survival rate (OS) of 97.5 % . But, some risk factors for recurrence and death still exist. The most correlative factors affecting mortality are maximum tumor diameter (≥4), pre-operative neck gross metastasis, extrathyroidal invasion, and metastases [, ]. Postoperative RAI should generally be administered for these variants as they will generally be intermediate to advanced tumors . In addition, old age ≥45, surrounding invasion, distant metastases, and gross locoregional residual are indicators to perform adjuvant EBRT . EBRT will improve their survival and reduce the recurrent rate (51 % control group vs. 8 % EBRT group) . The toxicity-related side effects of EBRT, such as skin reaction, esophagitis, and laryngeal irritation, are limited and resolved during follow-up . +In our case, the patient is a 57-year-old woman, and the tumor invaded the surroundings, such as trachea, right carotid artery, and right recurrent laryngeal nerve. It became even worse while the tumor cannot be completely excised because of the severe invasion in the right carotid artery. Depending on all of the above, RAI and EBRT are necessary for the patient just after the surgery. +However, tracheal relapse was poorly differentiated, and the RAI therapy had lost the opportunity to benefit. +The excision of big arteries was taken into account when the tumor invaded the vessels so severely that it cannot be removed completely alone. Therefore, a better option should be selected between postoperative radiation therapy without excision of the carotid artery and replacement surgery of vessels. +The prognosis of those who have local invasion is worse than those who do not. Vessel invasion is a predictable index . Nevertheless, many complications peri-operatively and postoperatively are present for this index, such as neurologic sequelae, graft infection or occlusion, and cerebral ischemia. Embolization and hemorrhage also cannot be ignored . Hence, whether to reconstruct the invaded vessels or not is a dilemma. +We searched the PubMed database, but there are few literatures about the controversy, in addition to cases involving vessel reconstruction along with thyroid cancer. It is said that it is helpful to decrease patients’ long-term metastasis and locoregional recurrence with vascular invasion artery resection and reconstruction [, ]. +However, other studies show that patients with T4 tumors can also have a good 5-year OS after adjuvant RAI and EBRT therapies . Furthermore, locoregional failures all occur at the neck node area . OS is not significantly different from those re-operated within cervical lymph node metastasis . +In our case, the common carotid artery was invaded, but no obvious tumor-induced blockage was observed . Considering that the patient should take RAI and EBRT therapies, which depended on severe local invasion and old age (≥45), we opted for a milder surgery therapy after obtaining the family’s approval and consent. +Unfortunately, the patient refused the therapy after surgery. Nonetheless, the cervix condition was not too bad, and no distant metastasis was observed. +Tracheal invasion, one third of the extrathyroidal extension, is an independent predictor of death, followed by hemoptysis and dyspnea, in approximately 6 % of thyroid cancer . The status of trachea invasion can be divided into several stages. Stage A disease invades through the capsule of the thyroid gland and invades the external perichondrium of the trachea. Stage B disease invades between the rings of cartilage or causes minor cartilage destruction. Stage C disease invades through the cartilage or between the cartilaginous rings into the lamina propria of the tracheal mucosa or in the submucosal area. Stage D disease is a full-thickness invasion with the expansion of tracheal mucosa that is visible through a bronchoscope as a nodule or ulcerated mass . Generally, the patients without residual have the greatest prognosis . The patients with stage A invasion have an almost identical prognosis after shaving resection compared to segmental tracheal resection. +This woman with stage A trachea invasion in our case had shaving resection because of the granted adjuvant RAI and EBRT therapy. She refused the adjuvant therapy, and the gross relapsed through the trachea without having invaded the common carotid artery and other distant metastasis. Interestingly, the tumor invaded through the trachea faster than the artery, which had been invaded and had not been excised with all invasion tissues. Shaving resection may have destroyed the tracheal anatomy and made it easier to invade through than before. However, the survival period and disease-free survival period of having shaving resection, even the survival period of having palliative surgery, are much better than those without any airway operation in the patients of locally invaded thyroid cancer. Hence, trachea invasion might be a worse independent predictor of prognosis than any other local invasion. Therefore, aggressive procedures should be performed to protect the patient from relapsing. If tracheal relapse occurs, the stent might solve the respiration problem safely. Stent can be used a few times to release the patient’s dyspnea and fear. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3014_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3014_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3205471fefa448de392e13548fb9d41637749285 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3014_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,21 @@ +A 6-year-old boy presented with cervical enlargement and recurrent bouts of high fever.

ASD: atrial septal defect + + +Subsequently, the patient's heart failure proved to be refractory to the best-practice treatment with cardiotonic drugs [intravenous dobutamine (3.5 μg/kg/min)], high-dose diuretics [furosemide (20 mg/day) and tolvaptan (15 mg/day)], and of warfarin (2 mg/day). Further complicating the situation, the patient's renal function progressively deteriorated during this treatment, which negatively affected the hemodynamic control. In this case, the intractable heart failure was attributable to the combined hemodynamic disturbances, including an ostium secundum ASD with a large shunt burden, secondary tricuspid regurgitation, and atrial fibrillation with a slow ventricular response. The ASD was considered to play a central role in the condition of the patient. After a thorough discussion within the heart team, transcatheter closure was scheduled despite the fact that the patient was a nonagenarian with multiple comorbidities. On the 32nd hospital day, this procedure was performed under general anesthesia. Using an 18-mm balloon, a pre-procedural occlusion test was performed under right-sided catheter monitoring. This revealed the absence of a hemodynamic exacerbation. Because the measured defect size was 15.5 mm in diameter, to completely enclose the sinus of Valsalva, a Figulla Flex IIⓇ occluder device (21 mm, Occlutech, Jena, Germany) was finally selected and successfully deployed without any complications (Fig. 3C). After device implantation, only clopidogrel (75 mg/day) was prescribed on top of warfarin to avoid the hemorrhagic complications. + +Immediately after ASD closure, the patient's hemodynamics became controllable without the need for inotropic medication or intravenous diuretics, and his renal function gradually improved. The patient was discharged on the 9th day after ASD closure. + +Surprisingly, the patient's heart returned to sinus rhythm, and not only the cardiomegaly but also the bilateral pleural effusion showed significant improvement at one month after ASD closure. Moreover, despite the long-term volume overload, the right heart showed significant reverse remodeling, and the cardiac output markedly improved from 2.8 L/min to 4.4 L/min. At 10 months after ASD closure, his heart failure symptoms showed a marked improvement to NYHA functional class I. At present, he is caring for his sick wife in their own home. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3028_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3028_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d2c7d9f28a0723f3da8dde3f7f5bcac160cc8cc3 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3028_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 48-year-old man was admitted to the emergency department 2 hours after falling from a height of 15 m, On admission, physical examination revealed a body temperature of 36.2°C, heart rate of 150 beats per minute, weak radial pulse, respiratory rate of 35 breaths per minute, blood pressure of 70/35 mm Hg, oxygen saturation of 89%, restlessness, shortness of breath, multiple skin abrasions across the body, and significant neck pain.

Dialysate prescription: Ca: 2.5 mEq/L; K: 1 mEq/L; Na: 138 mEq/L; bicarbonate: 36 mmol/L; unfractionated heparin: 5000 IU/session. If the patient had attended his sessions as prescribed, his calculated standard Kt/V would have been 2.45. However, since he came to the clinic for only three or four sessions per week, his actual Kt/V was 1.5-2. + +The physical examination at admission showed the patient to be in poor general condition, pale and cyanotic. Pulmonary auscultation was normal. His respiratory rate was 16 bpm and his oxygen saturation was 88% in room air. Cardiac auscultation revealed hypophonic murmurs, no heart murmurs, a heart rate of 88 bpm, blood pressure of 50/30 mmHg with a prolonged capillary refill time and jugular venous stasis. His abdomen was normal and his legs showed no signs of oedema. He showed signs of confusion and slowness during the neurological examination. His electrocardiogram showed a sinus rhythm, low diffuse voltage of the QRS complex, and altered ventricular repolarization. + +The patient was anuric and in shock. Resuscitation was performed with 1,000 ml of crystalloid fluid, but his blood pressure did not recover to normal levels. Cultures were collected and vancomycin and ceftazidime were prescribed until the etiology of the shock was clarified. He was referred to the intensive care unit (ICU), where noradrenaline 0.2 mcg/kg/min was initiated. His clinical and neurological condition improved despite the presence of paradoxical pulse. + +The results of his examination were as follows: hemoglobin: 9.8 g/dL; hematocrit: 29.5%; leukocytes: 5,230/mm3; platelets: 98,000/mm3; C-reactive protein: 0.61 mg/dL; NUS: 66.82 mg/dL; creatinine: 7.94 mg/dL; Na: 134 mEq/L; K: 6.2 mEq/L; ionized calcium: 1.17 mmol/L; P: 7.8 mg/dL; ALT: 14 U/L; AST: 22 U/L; alkaline phosphatase: 81 U/L; total bilirubin: 0.51 mg/dL; albumin: 3.9 g/dL; INR: 1.3; and TAP: 1.29. The markers of myocardial ischemia and the subsequent blood cultures were negative. + +A transthoracic echocardiogram showed a mild enlargement of the left atrium. The ventricles had a systolic function with an ejection fraction of 67% despite abnormal septal motion. The patient had a thickened pericardium with no signs of effusion, along with areas of hyperechogenicity. His inferior vena cava (IVC) was dilated and showed no signs of inspiratory collapse. The association between the findings of tissue Doppler of the mitral annulus and the plethora of the IVC suggested constrictive pericarditis. A chest computed tomography showed a thickened pericardium with areas of coarse calcification. Cardiac catheterization showed equalization of diastolic pressures in all cardiac chambers and exhibited a square root signal, indicative of constrictive pericarditis. An echocardiogram performed ten months before admission showed no evidence of pericardial abnormalities. + +The individual underwent a pericardiectomy based on a diagnosis of constrictive pericarditis and cardiogenic shock. The cultures of pericardial fluid were negative for fungal and bacterial infection, and the adenosine deaminase (ADA) level was 23 U/L (normal range: <40U/L). The culture of pericardial fluid and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests were negative for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The histological analysis of the surgical specimen showed marked fibrosis, areas of dystrophic calcification and mild foci of mononuclear inflammation, with no signs of granuloma or infection. The investigation for neoplasms and autoimmune diseases, as well as tuberculin testing were negative. + +After ruling out additional secondary causes, the combination of findings of constrictive pericarditis led to the diagnosis of dialysis-induced constrictive pericarditis (DICP). The patient was prescribed a more intensive haemodialysis protocol and was discharged nine days later. Since then, he has been attending haemodialysis sessions rigorously and has been complying with his prescribed diet and fluid intake recommendations. diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3159_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3159_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..74c7aad02bfe38ff5fccf0458ff61caa8b690cd6 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3159_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 49-year-old male was referred for sudden onset of right-side weakness and aphasia for 55 minutes, with an initial National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score of 23 [(3 +2+2)+1+0+0+(0+4)+(0+4)+0+2+3+2+0] and a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score 3.

Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in the posterior–anterior projection showed the bilateral A2 segments ACAs originating from the left A1 segment, and both bilateral A2 segments ACAs were occluded. Consider this rare anatomical variation and the fact that the existing aspiration catheter hardly reaches the occlusive site, MT then was performed by using a 4×20 stent retriever (RECO; Minitech Medical, Wuxi, China) to revascularize the bilateral ACAs. After the respective first thrombectomy trial with the stent retriever, the bilateral ACAs were completely reperfused with modified thrombolysis in cerebral ischemia 3, but secondary thrombi were found in the MCA bifurcation. Most thrombi were removed in the MCA bifurcation after the use of direct aspiration technique. Imaging was performed within the following 24 h using magnetic resonance imaging.

Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia with hypotension frequently occurred, and the patient was readmitted in June (two years and 10 months after the reference date) for an electrophysiological study and right heart catheterization (RHC). RHC revealed mild PH, and right ventricular myocardial biopsies demonstrated drug-induced myocardial damage: the cardiomyocyte diameter was mildly enlarged, with noticeable anisokaryosis of the cardiomyocyte nuclei, some cardiomyocytes exhibited giant nuclei, and cytoplasmic vacuolar degeneration was observed. Mallory staining revealed fibrosis unrelated to the vascular structure between the cardiomyocytes, with the replacement of the myocardium by fibrous tissue. The 2DE in June (two years and 10 months after the reference date) revealed normalized LV diameter, a moderate reduction in LA enlargement, improved LVWM (52% LVEF), and a normalized TRmaxPG; however, the AVPG increased to 77 mmHg, with a Vmax of 4.4 m/s and aortic valve orifice area of 0.55 cm2, which was diagnosed as severe AS. The restricted openings of all calcified aortic valve leaflets were unchanged; however, all leaflets appeared slightly thickened and brightened. CT revealed that the aortic valve calcium score increased to 2,468 AU. Amlodipine was discontinued, and sacubitril/valsartan was tapered to mid-dose owing to persistent hypotensive symptoms. Spironolactone was discontinued due to hyperkalemia. The patient was stable at NYHA class II with a slight limitation of physical activity (NYHA class IIs) on sacubitril/valsartan at 200 mg/day, empagliflozin at 10 mg/day, carvedilol at 7.5 mg/day, azosemide at 30 mg/day, ivabradine at 15 mg/day, and vericiguat at 10 mg/day. An aortic valve replacement (AVR) for severe AS was successfully performed in September (three years and one month after the reference date), with good subsequent clinical outcomes. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3222_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3222_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..0b7833a9ae29702e04dd4ed556d0923899845b17 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3222_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 73-year-old male patient without any comorbidities presented with breathlessness for the last 12 h along with bipedal pitting edema and scrotal edema for the last 1 month with no features suggesting orthopnea or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.

No dyslipidemia was present. Ultrasonography of the whole abdomen revealed no evidence of chronic liver disease or any kidney disease. 2D echocardiography revealed an ejection fraction of 60% with right ventricular free wall hypokinesia without any pericardial effusion. Raising the suspicion of pulmonary thromboembolism, computed tomography of pulmonary angiography was performed where pulmonary thromboembolism was noted in bilateral lower lobe pulmonary arterial branches and right-sided upper lobe pulmonary arterial branches with dilated pulmonary trunk and both main pulmonary artery (MPA) [MPA 29 mm, right-22 mm, left-18 mm]. During the hospital stay, the patient was gradually developing asymmetrical right leg swelling for which an ultrasonography color doppler of bilateral lower limbs was performed where a long segment thrombus was noted extending from the popliteal vein to complete involvement of the external iliac vein. Antiphospholipid syndrome was ruled out. Protein, C, S, antithrombin III, and Serum homocysteine were within normal limits. Factor V mutation was not detected. Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) profile was negative. No Monoclonal protein band was detected on serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP). A computed tomography scan of the neck, thorax, and abdomen revealed no evidence of internal solid organ malignancy. Anticoagulation was started with low molecular weight Heparin (LMWH) and Warfarin and INR were monitored. To unveil the etiology of iron deficiency anemia and hypoproteinemia, stool examination, and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy were planned which revealed erythematous duodenal mucosa.

Histological examination showed a dermo-hypodermic multilobulated proliferation, poorly circumscribed, partially subdivided by fibrous septa, consisting of a vascularised myxoid matrix with the presence of stromal cells of spindle-shaped fibroblasts and some stellate cells. The vascular structures had a thin wall and formed a tree-like network in some areas. A mononuclear inflammatory infiltrate and isolated polymorphonuclear neutrophils were detected at the intra-lesional level. In addition, there were elongated epithelial cords located in the periphery, but no mitosis or atypia was observed. Complementary histochemical (periodic acid-Schiff PAS; alcian blue and mucicarmine) and immunohistochemical techniques were used. The first highlighted the myxoid stromal matrix rich in mucin. The immunomarking profile was positive for vimentin and CD34 in some stromal cells and blood vessels, and negative for pan-keratin, S-100 protein, desmin, smooth muscle actin and estrogen and progesterone receptors. Clinical and morphological findings allowed the diagnosis of AS to be made. The section margins contacted the lesion.

She also had moderate xerostomia, with a Clinical Oral Dryness Score of five [, ]. Upon examination, the patient was partially edentulous with no obvious facial swelling or palpable lymph nodes. Slight erythema was noted at the bilateral angle of her mouth, suggestive of angular cheilitis. A non-tender, non-indurated lump measuring 0.5 × 0.5 cm resembling an irritation fibroma, most likely caused by an ill-fitting denture, was observed on her lower right buccal sulcus over the premolar region. +An oral swab was collected from the bilateral angle of her mouth for Gram staining and cultured for Candida yeasts on Brilliance Candida agar™ (BCA) (Oxoid, UK). An expectorated oral rinse sample collected from gargling 20 ml of saline was also obtained and centrifuged at 9600 revolutions per minute at 4 ºC for 10 min. The pellet (100 μl) was cultured for isolation of Candida yeasts. Gram-stained smear of the oral swab showed presence of scanty Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and epithelial cells. Blastoconidia or hyphal filaments were not observed. Primary cultures from the oral swab and oral rinse samples grew dark blue colonies along the initial streak lines on BCA upon incubation at 37 °C after 48 h of incubation. The colonies were subcultured onto fresh BCA and Sabouraud’s dextrose agar (SDA) plates for incubation at room temperature and 37 °C. Smooth, mucoidal, and light orange or beige colonies were observed on SDA at both temperatures. Similar colonies were observed on BCA at room temperature; however, dark blue colonies were observed on BCA at 37 °C. The yeast growth was generally faster at room temperature compared to 37 ºC on both agar media. Gram stain examination of a pure culture showed round-to-oval yeast morphology. The yeast isolated was assigned as C. calyptogenae strain D1. +The yeast was identified to the species level through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and sequence determination of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) gene and D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (LSU) ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of the yeast. The freeze–thaw method as described by Silva et al. was used to extract yeast DNA. Two sets of primers, ITS1 (5ʹ-TCC GTA GGT GAA CCT GCG G-3ʹ) and ITS4 (5ʹ-TCC TCC GCT TAT TGA TAT GC-3ʹ) , and primer pair NL1 (5ʹ- GCA TAT CAA TAA GCG GAG GAA AAG-3ʹ) and NL4 (5ʹ-GGT CCG TGT TTC AAG ACG G-3ʹ) were used for species identification. The PCR reaction mixture (25 μl) contained 2 μl (16 ng) of DNA extract, 1 μM of each primer, 12.5 μl of exTen 2 × PCR Master Mix (1st Base, Singapore). The PCR amplification conditions included 5 min denaturation at 95 ºC for 1 cycle, followed by 35 cycles of 95 ºC for 1 min, 52 ºC for 1 min, 72 ºC for 1 min and one final extension step of 72 ºC for 10 min. The nucleotide sequences of the amplified products were determined by a commercial sequencing provider (Apical Scientific, Malaysia), using forward and reverse PCR primers. The sequences were assembled on the Biological Sequence Alignment Editing (Bioedit) software (RRID: SCR_007361) and searched for the highest sequence similarity using the GenBank Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLASTn) (RRID: SCR_004870) against the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) nucleotide database (RRID: SCR_004860). A phylogenetic tree was constructed on the Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis (MEGA) software (RRID: SCR_000667) using ITS gene sequences of C. calyptogenae strains retrieved from the GenBank database. Erythrobasidium hasegawianum strain CBS 8253 (AF444522) was used as an outgroup. +The yeast D1/D2 domain sequence (GenBank accession no. OK147747) was 100% (558/558 nucleotides) similar to the C. calyptogenae CBS 9125 type strain, which was first isolated from a giant white clam (AB025996) . Other strains demonstrating 100% sequence similarity include C. calyptogenae strain 4107 (EU669877) , which was isolated from seawater in Taiwan, and strain CBS 11058 from a culture collection . Meanwhile, the yeast ITS sequence (GenBank accession no. OK147742) exhibited 100% (463/463 nucleotides) similarity to C. calyptogenae strain 4107 (EU669877) , and CBS 11134 (KY103129) but 99.5% (2 nucleotide difference) to C. calyptogenae CBS 9125 type strain. Figure shows the phylogenetic tree constructed based on ITS sequences of various Cystobasidium reference strains. Strain D1 was clustered with C. calyptogenae CBS 9125 type strain, and other known C. calyptogenae strains in the same branch with high bootstrap value (100%). Based on phylogenetic analysis, the identity of strain D1 was thus confirmed as C. calyptogenae. +The patient was given topical treatment with 2% miconazole and fusidic acid, once daily, for the management of angular cheilitis. Mouthwash (Oral-7) was provided to improve oral dryness. The patient was also scheduled for the construction of a new lower denture to increase the vertical dimension of the mouth to prevent recurrence of angular cheilitis. The clinical condition of the patient improved during a follow-up visit 2 weeks later, with mild erythema observed on the affected area. Repeat oral swab and oral rinse cultures were negative for C. calyptogenae. However, a mixed growth of yeasts (Trichosporon asahii, Candida dubliniensis, and Candida parapsilosis) was noted in the oral rinse sample. Similar treatment was thus continued for another 2 weeks and the patient was placed on an open appointment that required her to come to the clinic only if the symptoms persisted. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_424_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_424_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f3e2763cfaf58175e21cf606e0f350d84357b924 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_424_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +An asymptomatic 23-month-old boy, weighed 10.5 kg, was incidentally diagnosed with congenital heart disease while presenting to the hospital for another illness. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed one 18-mm ASD located in the inferior portion of the atrial septum that resulted in an overriding inferior vena cava (IVC), and the right inferior pulmonary vein (RIPV) partially returned to the right atrium (RA) near the orifice of the IVC. TTE also showed a complete left-to-right atrial shunt, no tricuspid regurgitation, and right ventricular dilation (with a diameter of 15 mm). Cardiac catheterization confirmed a normal anatomy of coronary arteries and a pulmonary to systemic flow ratio (Qp/Qs) of 3.2:1. +The patient was placed in a supine position with the right side of the body elevated to 30°. Two arms were placed along the body and the patient was under general anesthesia with a single-lumen endotracheal tube. One 14F-arterial cannula (Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, Minn, USA) used as a superior vena cava (SVC) cannula was inserted through the right internal jugular vein with Seldinger technique. Four trocars were set up on the right chest wall, included the following: one 12 mm trocar in the 5th intercostal space (ICS) at the anterior axillary line as the main working port, one 5 mm trocar in the 4th ICS at the mid-axillary line as the secondary working port, one 5 mm trocar in the 5th ICS at the mid-axillary line as the camera port and one 5 mm trocar in the 6th ICS at the mid-axillary line for right heart sucker. +The ventilation volume was reduced to 50%–75% compared with conventional practice. The anesthetist continuously monitored the oxygen saturation with a finger pulse oximeter and maintained it ≥95% throughout the operation. With this ventilation technique, the lungs were collapsed enough for the surgeon to open and hang up the pericardium. The large right lobe of the thymus covered the majority of the pericardium surrounding the aorta and the SVC. Therefore, we dissected this lobe from the pericardium (while preserving the tissue and supplying vessels) and hung it on to the anterior chest wall with a suture. The pericardium was opened parallel to and at 1.5 cm away from the anterior chest wall. The inferior edge of the pericardium was hung up to the diaphragm (the caudal end) and through the trocar (the cephalic end) by some sutures to expose the surgical field (Video 1). At this stage, respiratory ventilation was continued as usual. +To expose the ascending aorta, the top of the right atrial appendage was sutured and pulled down through a trocar. A 2–0, 17 mm braided suture (ETHIBOND EXCEL® Polyester Suture, ETHICON, JOHNSON & JOHNSON, Shanghai, China) was used to make a purse-string suture on the anterior wall of the ascending aorta, right beneath the semicircular fat plica (A) (Video 2). A 12F-arterial cannula (Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, Minn, USA) was placed superiorly through right anterior chest wall in the 4th ICS, 1 cm away from the right border of the sternum. This process was performed from the outside combined with endoscopic visualization from inside to avoid injury to the internal thoracic artery and ensure that the cannula was best directed to the purse-string suture . We placed a piece of a 10 F rubber catheter (Red Rubber Latex All-Purpose Intermittent Catheters, Medline, USA) about 1.3 to 1.5 cm away from the tip of the arterial cannula to work as a brake. Subsequently, a surgical scalpel blade No.11 (Aesculap, Inc.) was used to open the ascending aorta inside the purse-string suture. The arterial cannula was then introduced via this ostium into the ascending aorta until the brake on the cannula reached the aortic wall (B, C) (Video 3). The arterial cannula was fixed and the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was started. +A CO2-pump line connecting to the camera port was used to fill the pericardial and pleural spaces with CO2. Initially, CO2 was pumped with a rate of 0.5 l/min, and then the pump rate was adjusted to maintain the partial pressure of CO2 in arterial blood ranging from 35 to 40 mmHg. Arterial line pressure was maintained >50 mmHg during the operation. +A loop was placed around the SVC to act as a tourniquet but not snaring. The patient was placed in the Trendelenburg position. The tourniquet on the SVC was tightened after opening the RA (Video 4). The blood returning to the RA from the IVC was drained by a stiff sucker, which also acted as an atrial retractor to expose the lesion. The edges of RA were hung to the pericardium by stitches to expose structures inside the RA. After determining the location, size of the ASD, as well as the anatomical correlation between the IVC and the RIPV, an artificial patch was used to close the ASD and form a canal to drain blood from the RIPV to the LA through the ASD (A, B) (Video 5). Right before completing the ASD closure, the lung was inflated to remove air from the left atrium. The RA was closed in a two-layer fashion using continuous stitches. The extracorporeal circulation was stopped and the surgery was finished uneventfully. The operative and cardiopulmonary bypass times were 259 and 133 min, respectively. The patient stayed in the intensive care unit for 18 h and was discharged on postoperative-day 7 without neurological complication or blood transfusion. TTE prior to discharge revealed a completely closed ASD, patent IVC, and RIPV ostia.

Following primary diagnosis, she underwent wide local excision with sentinel lymph node dissection that was negative for residual disease. She subsequently received adjuvant high dose interferon (5 days/week for 4 weeks), according to approved guidelines at the time. Three years later, whole body computerized tomography (CT) scanning revealed a lesion of 45 mm in the lower lobe of the left lung. Patient underwent lobectomy and histology confirmed metastatic melanoma, BRAF wild type on molecular analysis. At that point, no adjuvant treatment was provided. A year later, CT restaging revealed several pulmonary nodules scattered on both lungs, enlarged lymph nodes in the left hilum and gastroesophageal area. Given melanoma relapse, the patient received pembrolizumab intravenously (iv), 200 mg flat dose every 3 weeks, without any immune-related complications except of a mild elevation of transaminases. Three months post pembrolizumab initiation, lesions and lymphadenopathy were increased in size and therefore anti-PD1 was discontinued. The patient was scheduled to receive 4 cycles of iv ipilimumab, 3 mg/kg every 3 weeks, as second-line treatment. Approximately 2 weeks after the second administration of ipilimumab, she complained of nausea, persistent diarrhea and shivering fever and was admitted to our clinic for further evaluation and management. On physical examination, fever reached 38 °C and her abdomen was distended with hyperactive bowel sounds. The white blood cell count was 6.48 × 109/L with 71.3% neutrophils; C-reactive protein (135 mg/L, normal value < 5 mg/L) and lactate dehydrogenase (379U/L, normal range: 135–215 U/L) were increased while serum albumin was low (27.5 g/L, normal range: 35–50); transaminases and cholestatic enzymes were elevated (AST: 56 U/L, ALT: 45 U/L, GGT: 307 U/L, ALP: 170 U/L) with normal bilirubin (0.74 mg/dl, normal range: 0.3–1.2 mg/dl). Thyroid-stimulating hormone was increased (17.83 mU/L, normal range: 0.27–4.5 mU/L)] giving the suspicion for immune-mediated thyroiditis with the rest of serum endocrine parameters being normal [adrenocorticotropic hormone = 35 pg/ml (normal range: 10–65 pg/ml) and cortisol = 221.9 mmol/L (normal range: 173.6–505 mmol/L)]. Approaching her as an immunocompromised case, wide-range antibiotics were empirically delivered without resolution of her symptoms. Stool cultures for bacteria, ova and parasites, Clostridium difficile toxins (A and B), as well as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for cytomegalovirus (CMV) were all negative. Abdominal CT scan was negative for visceral metastasis showing thickening of the large bowel wall, a finding supportive of colonic inflammation. The patient underwent sigmoidoscopy that revealed mucosal edema, hyperemia and erosions of the rectum and sigmoid colon. Representative biopsies were obtained for histological evaluation. +Histological examination revealed multiple small, non-necrotizing epithelioid granulomas within the crypts with partial or complete destruction of the crypt epithelium and derangement but not total disruption of the basement membrane, depicted in Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS) histochemical stain. Some intracryptal granulomas were accompanied by rupture of the crypt wall and pericryptal expansion . Active inflammation was also present characterized by moderate lamina propria lymphoplasmacytic infiltrations, focal cryptitis and rare crypt abscesses. Basal plasmacytosis, intraepithelial lymphocytes or crypt architectural distortions were not apparent while neutrophils and eosinophils were scarce. Few apoptotic bodies were occasionally seen at the crypt base. Histochemical PAS and Ziehl–Neelsen stains were negative for fungi and acid-fast bacteria respectively. +Immunohistochemistry was performed on 4 μm-thick sections using Dako Envision Flex system (Dako, Glostrup, Denmark). The following antibodies were applied: CD20 (Dako, clone L26, mouse monoclonal, 1:700 dilution, Glostrup, Denmark), CD3 (Dako, rabbit polyclonal, 1:50 dilution), CD4 (Dako, clone 4B12, mouse monoclonal, 1:50), CD8 (Dako, clone C8/144B, mouse monoclonal, 1:200 dilution) and SMA (Dako, clone 1A4, mouse monoclonal, 1:800 dilution). Based on the above immunostains, the vast majority of lymphocytes were T cells (CD3 +) predominately CD4+. SMA highlighted the attenuation of the pericryptal myofibroblasts . +In view of the patient’s clinical history, the lesion was reported as granulomatous colitis probably induced by ipilimumab. +Anti-CTLA4 was discontinued and iv prednisone at a dose of 75 mg/d was initiated with immediate clinical improvement of the diarrheic syndrome. The patient was subsequently treated with chemotherapy with no reported serious adverse events till September 2019, when radiology showed new disease progression. A re-challenge with another anti-PD1 agent, namely nivolumab, was decided, and currently the patient is under immunotherapy with stable disease regarding melanoma status and without any sign of colitis recurrence. +Running through the literature on PubMed and using the following terms (CTLA4, PD1/PD-L1, ipilimumab, pembrolizumab, nivolumab, immune-related adverse events, granulomatous reactions, granulomatous colitis and colon granulomas), we ended up to 5 studies that described in total 14 cases with immunotherapy related colon granulomas. A flow diagram of the performed systematic review is illustrated in Fig. . In these cases, melanoma was commonly the underlying cancer treated with ICPIs, while the median time to colitis onset exceeded 30 days with one exception of ir-colitis presentation 27 days after the initiation of a combination immunotherapy. +Of the 14 reported cases of colitis with granuloma formation, 1 was associated with PD1 inhibitor , 2 with nivolumab/ipilimumab combination , 3 with an anti-PD1 regimen without being clearly mentioned if the patients were receiving also ipilimumab , and 5 with anti-CTLA4 treatment [, ]. For the remaining 3 cases it is not clear whether patients received ipilimumab alone or in combination with melanoma peptide vaccines to enhance host’s immunization , therefore granuloma formation could be related to ipilimumab, to vaccination or both. Table summarizes the data of the studies reporting colon granulomas in patients under ICPIs. +Apart from colon, granulomatous/sarcoid-like reactions (G/SLR) have also been described in different organs of cancer patients treated with ICPIs. Table presents a synopsis of published series with 3 or more patients under immunotherapy reporting at least one case of ICPIs-associated G/SLR in organs other than GI tract [–]. Lungs, lymph nodes and skin were the main tissues with granuloma formation, while melanoma was the main underlying malignancy. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_500_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_500_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..65410b13a56788a1bca71a812eba672f72794312 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_500_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our department for the treatment of right empyema. She had been complaining of fever and fatigue about 7 weeks ago and had been treated with antibiotics by her primary care physician. However, as her symptoms did not improve, computed tomography (CT) was performed. A chest drainage tube was inserted because the chest CT showed pleural effusion with pleural thickening in the right thoracic cavity. She was diagnosed with empyema because bacteria were detected in cloudy fluid from the thoracic drainage tube. Blood and biochemical findings at admission showed an elevated inflammatory response (white blood cell 11520/μL and C-reactive protein 11.19 mg/dL). Chest X-ray showed remaining pleural effusion and insufficient expansion of the lung, although a drainage tube had been inserted in the right thoracic cavity . Chest CT showed fluid collection in three independent spaces within the right thoracic cavity. The first empyema cavity was from the ventral side of the superior vena cava in the anterior mediastinum to the inferior pulmonary vein along the pericardium (cavity I: Fig. a–c). The second empyema cavity was present from outside of the right upper lobe to the interlobar space between upper and lower lobes, in which a chest drainage tube has been inserted (cavity II: Fig. a–c). The third empyema cavity was located from the outside of the right lower lobe to the diaphragm (cavity III: Fig. a–c). It was assumed that a firm adhesion between the lung and chest wall was developed because a long time had passed since the onset. Therefore, we decided to use CBCT to completely debride three empyema cavities separately by VATS. +Under general anesthesia, the patient is placed in the lateral decubitus position. A careful check is made if the C-arm of the CBCT can be adequately rotated around the operation table. We can obtain scanning images of 18.5 cm in longer axis (craniocaudal direction) by a single rotation of the C-arm, and the single rotation needs 6 s (6 s acquisition protocol (6s DynaCT Body)). The field of view of the scanned image (24 × 24 cm, DynaCT mode) provided by CBCT is smaller than that of the multidetector computed tomography (MDCT). Thus, two rotations of the C-arm are needed to obtain images of the hemithorax. Scanning was performed under inflation of the lungs with 20 cm H2O airway pressure. The amount of irradiation dose in one rotation was 60 to 70 mGy. We took the images before and after the surgical procedure in order to determine the site of skin incision and to confirm the presence or absence of an overlooked empyema cavity. Cavity I was only in a narrow range with the chest wall, and it was located on the back of cost rib cartilage. By clicking any intended anatomical structures on CBCT images, the position was readily depicted by lase projection on the body surface, which helped to place the best skin incision . In cavity II, CBCT after initial debridement showed insufficiently dissected cavity . Additional debridement resulted in successful shrinkage of the empyema cavity . For cavity III, the usual debridement by VATS was possible without using CBCT. This patient had three isolated empyema cavities requiring chest drainage tube insertion into the individual cavities followed by VATS debridement using cupped forceps. The operation time was 315 min and the amount of bleeding was 225 g. A total of only three small incisions was made in this patient for adequate debridement of the three cavities . The patient recovered uneventfully without additional interventional therapy. Chest X-ray before discharge showed a slight shadow due to atelectasis, but well expansion of the other part of the lung . +CBCT in the hybrid operating room is currently used in various fields, such as cardiology, neurosurgery, and vascular surgery. With regard to respiratory surgery, although some reports describe the usefulness in identifying the intrapulmonary small lesions , it remains controversial if CBCT is useful in surgical treatment of empyema. Decortication via open thoracotomy requires wide adehesiolysis in order to peel the fibrous capsule of each cavity via single thoracotomy incision, which can often result in lung injury, thereby development of bronchopleural fistulae. Therefore, for some patients who have multiple isolated empyema cavities by developing firm intrathoracic adhesion, it is better performing debridement and drainage, individually. For these cases, VATS is advantageous because it does not necessarily require adhesiolysis and wide skin incision. However, concern remains whether the debridement without intrathoracic adhesiolysis is adequate or not because of the possibility of residual or overlooked contaminated cavities. Although transthoracic echo may also be useful to identify the location of the empyema cavity, this modality is not helpful to know whether the debridement is adequately accomplished or not. If the debridement was incomplete as a result of worrying about an accidental injury of the surrounding organ, additional interventions may be required due to the persistent empyema cavity or insufficient expansion of the ipsilateral lung [, ]. In the present case, accurate and effective VATS debridement and drainage with small skin incision was accomplished by using CBCT. +With respect to the radiation exposure, Chao et al. reported based on their experience with preoperative or intraoperative localization of small intrapulmonary nodules. They reported that the amount of radiation exposure by intraoperative localization with CBCT was comparable to that by preoperative localization with MDCT . Because the amount of exposure by CBCT may depend on the times of C-arm rotation, we must attempt to restrict the times and extent of radiation exposure by CBCT. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_554_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_554_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..841e638f2f0586324c12f714d940422db19e3aec --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_554_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +We present the case of a 19-year-old Hispanic female previously healthy, whose relevant medical history only included smoking 4 cigarettes a day for one year.

Cystoscopy revealed intravesical clots and obstructive bilobar prostate. Following the procedure, the patient exhibited signs of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and pathologic urinalysis. Therefore, antibiotic therapy with ampicillin/sulbactam was initiated without improvement in the clinical features. The urine culture report showed the presence of carbapenem-sensitive Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter cloacae. Therefore, the therapy was subsequently escalated to meropenem (1 g every 8 h). The patient presented with clinical deterioration and ventilatory failure and was referred to the ICU for orotracheal intubation. He also developed cardiopulmonary arrest, which required basic and advanced resuscitation techniques for 11 min with subsequent sinus rhythm. On physical examination, the patient was under sedation, tachycardic, and hypothermic with evidence of purulent urethral discharge, and he required vasopressor support and sedoanalgesia. He had multiple organ dysfunctions due to urinary and pulmonary sepsis with the identification of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in the blood and lower respiratory tract secretions. The antibiotic therapy was adjusted to colistimethate (90,000 IU/kg) divided into three daily doses, doripenem (1 g every 8 h), and fosfomycin (4 g every 6 h). The patient initially progressed toward improvement, but 72 h later, he presented with new signs of inflammatory response. Therefore, a new blood culture was performed, revealing a carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii isolate (minimum inhibitory concentrations [MICs] ≥ 16, ≥ 16, and ≥ 8 μg/ml for imipenem, meropenem, and doripenem, respectively) that was also resistant to gentamicin (MIC ≥ 16 μg/ml), ciprofloxacin (MIC ≥ 4 μg/ml), and colistin (MIC 16 μg/ml) and sensitive only to tigecycline (MIC 1 μg/ml). Following this test, tigecycline administration was initiated (100 mg every 12 h), and colistimethate was suspended, with fosfomycin and doripenem continued until the completion of 14 days of treatment. Nevertheless, due to the persistent systemic inflammatory response on day 10, rifampicin (600 mg/day) and ertapenem (1 g every 12 h) were initiated for pharmacological synergism until day 14. With the prescribed antibiotic therapy, the patient improved in terms of infection, with an absence of fever and decreased leukocyte count. New blood and urine cultures were done, with negative results. +Molecular typing confirmed the genus and species of the isolate as A. baumannii (excluding other species of the Acinetobacter genus), as well as the presence of the blaOXA-23 gene (associated with carbapenem resistance). The isolate belonged to the sequence type (ST) 944, which has also been described in isolates identified in Russia, Italy, and the United States. Studies have identified intrahospital outbreaks of colistin-resistant bacteria with predominant genotype according to multilocus sequence typing was ST-258, ST11, ST273, and ST15 for K. pneumoniae; ISAba1 in P. aeruginosa, and pmrA1 and pmrB genotype ST94 for A. baumannii . There are few reports on the resistance mechanisms associated with resistance to colistin in A. baumannii, the most important one being that related to loss in the production of lipid A of lipopolysaccharide. This loss has been associated with mutations in the pmrAB and lpxACD operons, lpxK, or the ISAba11 insertion [, ]. The sequencing of these two operons in the A. baumannii isolate identified two nonsynonymous mutations (H31P and I215M) in the lpxC gene from the ATCC 19606 strain and another nonsynonymous mutation (A178G) in the pmrC gene from the ATCC 17978 strain [–]. None of these mutations has previously been reported in colistin-resistant strains. Although they have been found in the A. baumannii isolate, their possible association with resistance should be confirmed experimentally. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_72_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_72_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..271f7be7c5bd0c5ef3efb2a278a3cfacdcb5e174 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_72_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 75-year-old man presented to our hospital with dyspnea. +He was diagnosed with interstitial pneumonia 11 years ago.

Contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) showed inverted thoracic and abdominal organs and illustrated the wall thickness of the stomach body, which had no obvious metastasis . Furthermore, the aortic arch to the thoracic aorta was in the normal anatomical position ; hence, the case was diagnosed as SIP. The 3D angiography revealed a complete right–left reversal of the abdominal arteries . SI is known to be frequently associated with chronic sinusitis and bronchiectasis, and this clinical triad is called the Kartagener syndrome . However, chronic sinusitis and bronchiectasis were not seen in this patient. +Preoperative staging of GC was clinical Stage IIB (cT3N0M0) according to the tumor/node/metastasis (TNM) classification of malignant tumors 8th edition. +LDG with D2 lymph node dissection (LND) and modified delta-shaped Billroth-I reconstruction was performed. Although this case was SIP, the abdominal organs were completely inverted ; hence, this operation could be performed with the usual LDG symmetrically . Five trocars were placed in the left–right reversal of the usual LDG in our hospital. The surgeon and the assistant performed this operation by reversing the standing position and the roles of the left and right hands from the usual LDG. The surgeon had to operate the energy device with the non-dominant hand. However, the surgeon used the energy device with the dominant hand for supra-pancreatic LND. The problem encountered with this method was that the forceps of the left hand crossed the energy device; however, the supra-pancreatic LND could be safely performed without the energy device interfering with the pancreas. +In this operation, there were two problems that could not be solved by performing the operation symmetrically. One of the problems was the method of retracting the lateral segment of the liver. We usually use the Nathanson liver retractor in laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG), which was also used in this case. However, the tip of the liver retractor was oriented toward the hepatic hilar side due to its asymmetrical hook shape. Therefore, the retraction of the lateral segment of the liver was somewhat insufficient, and special care was required not to damage the liver . The second problem was intracorporeal suturing. We usually perform intracorporeal suturing with the surgeon in the paraxial position; however, in this operation, the surgeon performed the suturing in the co-axial position between the patient’s legs. By shifting to this standing position, the surgeon was able to suture with the dominant hand and the normal needle direction. +Operation time, including intraoperative frozen section histological analysis for the proximal resection margin, was 323 min, and blood loss was 10 ml. After an uneventful postoperative course, the patient was discharged on postoperative day 10. Postoperative staging of GC was pathological Stage IIIB (pT4aN3aM0) according to the TNM classification of malignant tumors 8th edition. The patient received S − 1 + docetaxel adjuvant chemotherapy for 1 year after surgery without any signs of recurrence. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_823_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_823_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..aad9326a6e7f7b9033682e650f0af25915916cf0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_823_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 72-year-old male patient, smoker (47 pack-years), with no known medical history was presented with symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath for the past 2 months (New York Heart Association functional Class III) and bilateral lower limb oedema since 2 weeks.

Onset was sudden and symptoms had already been present for approximately 4 hours. The patient’s medical history revealed long-standing arterial hypertension, ischaemic heart disease and nicotinism. +An examination performed after hospital admission revealed right progressive CNVII paresis, mixed aphasia and paresis of right limbs [2/5 in Medical Research Council Muscle strength scale]. Computed tomography (CT) of the head revealed an acute ischaemic focus in the left hemisphere and white matter lesions, a surrogate for cerebral small-vessel disease. The electrocardiogram recorded atrial fibrillation with a ventricular rate of 70 beats/min. Ultrasound examination and angio-CT scan (arterial and venous phase) of the head revealed a left-sided occlusion of the common carotid artery (CCA), external carotid artery, and the internal carotid artery (ICA) at the cavernous section (with an extended thrombus in the ICA above the embolism) . At this time, preserved blood flow was confirmed in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and anterior cerebral artery (ACA) on the left side . In the ultrasound duplex Doppler examination, the material occluding the CCA was hyperechogenic, with thrombus extension into the ICA, suggesting the presence of fibrous embolic material migration into the CCA, occlusion of the ICA and propagation of the thrombosis into the distal part of the carotid artery. The movement of the embolism in the CCA was visible during the ultrasound examination with distal CCA bulb occlusion and no signs of dissection or aneurysm. +Because of the duration of the symptoms, the unstable neurological condition of the patient, the extent and nature of lesions occluding the arteries, and the newly created cerebral ischaemia focus, a decision was made to undertake combined interventional treatment involving surgical and endovascular therapy. Because of the size and nature of the embolic material (mostly hyperechogenic, probably fibrous and non-compressible lesion), surgical embolectomy was undertaken in the first step of the procedure with the endovascular methods reserved for adjunct treatment if required. +The procedure was performed in a hybrid operating room under fluoroscopic control (started in the 6th hour from the start of symptoms). From the incision on the front edge of the left sternocleidomastoid muscle, the ICA and its division were dissected. A transverse cut on the CCA was made, just below the ostium of the ICA. Through arteriotomy, an extensive embolism of the CCA bulb was removed: 10 × 7 mm in size, hard, with fibrous structure. After removing the embolism, a good inflow and lack of back flow were recorded. Using a 3 F Fogarty catheter, a 10-cm thrombus was removed from the ICA; after removing the embolus, arteriography showed restored flow in the ICA, but lack of contrast in the cerebral circulation corresponding to the ACA and MCA . Based on the arteriographic image, a decision was made to implement thrombolytic treatment: 0.3 mg/kg of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA; Actylise, Boehringer Ingelheim, Germany) was administered through a catheter placed in the ICA. Follow-up angiography revealed blood flow in the ICA and the ACA . The arteriotomy was sutured using a vascular suture (Prolene 5–0). Because of parenchymatous bleeding from the wound caused by administering rt-PA and heparin (2500 U; as a routine surgical measure), haemostatic dressing and suturing were used, while closure was delayed until the next day to allow normalisation and prevent clotting abnormalities. +Systematic improvement of the neurological condition continued in the post-surgery period without complications. During anticoagulant therapy, unfractionated heparin was used at an initial daily dose of 15000 U/24 h, which was later changed to 25000 U/24 h based on the activated partial thromboplastin time. Through continuous heart rate monitoring, atrial fibrillation was observed. Follow-up ultrasound and angio-CT of the head (1st day following the intervention) revealed proper blood flow in the affected arteries, but a CT scan of the head revealed a marked ischaemic focus . On the 10th day from the onset of the symptoms, the patient left the ward in a neurologically good condition, with discrete aphasia, yet able to move independently. Based on the clinical course and results of additional tests (imaging and electrophysiological testing), it was determined that the stroke occurred in the patient as a result of cardiogenic embolism from atrial fibrillation (diagnosed de novo during hospitalisation). As a further prophylaxis against stroke, dabigatran in daily dose of 300 mg was introduced from the 10th day. The written informed consent of the patient was obtained for participation in this study and for publication of the results. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_887_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_887_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..7920084d7332ed80973b60688b791c86f8deab04 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_887_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 63-year-old man admitted to the stroke service at our center presented with the sudden onset of headache, vomiting, and right-sided hemiparesis followed by loss of consciousness (World Federation of Neurological Surgery grade IV).

Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging performed immediately after the onset of symptoms revealed no apparent ischemic findings , but subsequent technetium 99 m hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime single photon emission CT (Tc-99 m HMPAO SPECT) revealed a mild reduction in rCBF in the left anterior cerebral artery (ACA) and MCA territories ] indicative of clinical deterioration attributable to vasospasm. Hyperdynamic therapy with dobutamine (initial dose: 3 μg/kg/min; increased in 3 μg/kg/min increments every 4 hours to a level at which the deterioration resolved) combined with mild hypervolemia with supplemental low-molecular-weight dextran (500 mL/day) was initiated. +Cerebral digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed under local anesthesia via a transfemoral approach since there was no clinical improvement after 2 hours of maximal hemodynamic augmentation with dobutamine (12 μg/kg/min) to raise cardiac output to supranormal plateau level (cardiac index >5.0 L/min/m 2 ), assisted by radial artery waveform-based pulse contour cardiac output monitoring (FloTrac system version 3.02, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA, USA). Prior to DSA, transcranial rSO2 was measured by a NIRS cerebral oximetry device (INVOS 5100C, Somanetics, Troy, MI, USA), which was composed of a light-emitting diode and two detectors located 30 and 40 mm from the diode, allowing compensation for NIR absorption from the scalp and the skull to determine rSO2 in the underlying area of the brain.

Since focal severe vasospasm still existed in the distal potion of M3 (superior division), superselective infusion of fasudil (25 mg) into the MCA distribution was performed by directing the microcatheter into the distal portion of M1 [, arrow]. Although further dilation could not be obtained in the M3 segment, good angiographic results were obtained in the remaining spastic vessels .

Cardiac output (> 5.0 L/min/m 2 ), systolic blood pressure (< 180 mmHg), and heart rate (< 130 bpm) were also maintained within each target for hyperdynamic therapy by titration of dobutamine dose and intravenous calcium antagonists. No apparent periprocedural clinical/vital signs or radiological findings of increased intracranial pressure or hemorrhage associated with the intra-arterial fasudil therapy were observed. Follow-up MR angiography on day 14 (corresponding to 3 days after the second endovascular therapy) confirmed improvement of vasospasm .

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) revealed positive expression of CD21 (FDC), CD20, CD23, CD10, BCL-2 and BCL-6, as well as negative expression of cyclin D1. Ki-67 index was 20%. A positron emission tomography (PET)-computerized tomography (CT) scan demonstrated significant uptake (SUVmax 7.6) in the retroperitoneal LN, measuring 4.1 × 2.9 cm. Bilateral axillary, left parasternal, paravertebral, intraabdominal, intrapelvic, and bilateral inguinal LNs were also 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid. She remained in good performance status and asymptomatic under close surveillance by her hematologist for over a year. +The patient was immediately suggested an open biopsy or core biopsy to determine the nature of the right breast mass. However, she refused due to personal reasons. In October 2022, the patient presented with a large mass in her right breast with skin involvement. She also suffered from recurrent fevers with headache, chills, and joint pain since August 2022, followed by short of breath and rapid progression of the right breast mass. US showed an 8.3 × 3.6 × 4.1 cm mass in the right breast, with lymphadenopathy at all three levels of bilateral axillae. Whole-body PET-CT demonstrated a hypermetabolic mass in the right breast and hypermetabolic LNs on both sides of the diaphragm. Increased 18F-FDG activity was also detected in enlarged spleen and bone marrow . Biopsy of the right breast mass was then performed and the pathological examination revealed no special type, histological grade 3 TNBC with a Ki-67 index of 70% . Blood test revealed significantly high white blood cell (WBC 114.28×109/L) and lymphocyte counts (LY 106.73×109/L), low hemoglobin (HGB 97g/L), and an elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of 443 U/L. Abnormal serum tumor markers including CA19-9 of 189.2 U/mL, CA125 of 938.0 U/mL, and CA15-3 of 183.5 U/mL were also detected. Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy confirmed bone marrow infiltration by FL ( and ). Therefore, stage IV FL with a FLIPI score of 4 and locally advanced TNBC were confirmed and both were indicated for systemic therapy. +The patient subsequently underwent neoadjuvant therapy with R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and prednisone). After two cycles of R-CHOP, the right breast mass decreased from 8.5 × 6.7 cm to 4.9 × 5.6 cm based on CT examination ( and ), showing a partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. WBC, LY, and LDH decreased to normal limits. CA15-3 descended to 99.3 U/mL. However, the mass in the right breast increased rapidly after the completion of the third cycle of R-CHOP ( and ). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) performed on the breast tumor sample revealed a HRD score of 72 and pathogenic mutations in ARID1A, FBXW7, SLX4, and TP53 genes. According to the NGS results, the neoadjuvant regimen was changed to R-TP (rituximab, nab-paclitaxel, and cisplatin). The patient responded well to the R-TP regimen with a rapid reduction in tumor size, from 7.4 × 8.7 cm to 3.9 × 3.7 cm ( and ). After three cycles of R-TP, CA15-3 descended to 51.8 U/mL. PET-CT was performed again and showed that hypermetabolic LNs on both sides of the diaphragm decreased in size as well as 18F-FDG uptake. A significant decrease in size and 18F-FDG uptake was also detected in spleen . +The patient then underwent right modified radical mastectomy and right axillary LN dissection. The pathological examination of right axillary LNs demonstrated both LN metastases from TNBC (1/50) and FL infiltration (49/50) . The pathological staging of TNBC was T3N1M0, IIIA. After surgery, the patient continued to receive R-TP for 3 cycles and adjuvant radiotherapy for breast cancer. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_92_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_92_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ad18fae28b236f5caaff4ff6fae950d9e1815d43 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_92_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,10 @@ +A 33-year-old female, with a medical history of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, presented to our trauma center after being an unrestrained driver in a motor vehicle crash going approximately 50 miles/h.
