He was diagnosed with grade I tracheal stenosis above the tracheostomy site 2 years ago. Despite conservative treatment, dyspnea developed and the patient underwent endoscopic tracheal dilatation under general anesthesia. Baseline peripheral capillary O2 saturation (SpO2) was 94% and Cormack-Lehane grade was 3 at the time of intubation. Surgery was performed using the intermittent apnea technique with extubation, and a total of six apnea events occurred, with a mean duration of apnea was 147 s. The lowest SpO2 was 64%, and SpO2 recovered to 96–98% after manual ventilation via endotracheal tube. The patient had been treated conservatively after balloon dilatation with portable O2 at home. Dyspnea worsened again 1 year ago, despite O2 therapy, and serial fiberoptic steroid injections to the subglottic stenosis site were planned. In our hospital, fiberoptic steroid injections are usually performed according to the following steps. Topical anesthesia at nostrils is followed by sedation, applied by surgeon. The fiberscope is inserted through the nostril, and the glottis and lesion are sprayed with additional local anesthetics. Then, the lesion is injected with steroid. The otolaryngologist consulted us for safe sedation and monitoring due to the possibility of emergency caused by airway edema or airway obstruction. Considering the patient’s general condition, symptoms, and experience of previous surgery, we decided to perform the operation under general anesthesia with spontaneous breathing in preparation for airway manipulation, because general anesthesia using the intermittent apnea technique could limit the view of surgical field and damage the larynx and subglottic lesions. +On entering the operating room, the patient was placed in a 30° sitting position for the first steroid injection. Standard American Society of Anesthesiologists monitoring (non-invasive blood pressure [NIBP], electrocardiogram, and SpO2) and bispectral index (BIS) monitoring were applied. The baseline vital signs were as follows: BP, 105/52 mmHg; heart rate (HR), 66 beats per minute (beats/min); SpO2, 95%. Oxygenation was applied at 6 L/min O2 through a standard facial mask. End-tidal CO2 (EtCO2) was monitored continuously by capnography to confirm self-respiration. Dexmedetomidine was used for sedation. After delivering a loading dose of 1 μg/kg over 10 min, continuous infusion of 0.6 μg/kg/h was maintained. During infusion of the loading dose, the EtCO2 level decreased gradually until apnea was induced. An oral airway was inserted and the jaw-thrust maneuver was applied to maintain airway patency and support self-respiration. After confirming that the patient was unresponsive to verbal commands and tactile stimulus, the surgery was started while self-respiration was maintained. The surgeon requested lowering of the facial mask so that it would not interfere with the procedure and applied topical anesthesia by packing gauze soaked with Bosmin® (0.1% epinephrine) and Beracaine® (10% lidocaine) into both nostrils. The fiberscope was passed through the nostril to access the glottic and subglottic lesions, and additional 2% lidocaine was sprayed around glottis and lesions, and 3 ml of tamcetone® (Triamcinolone 40 mg/ml) was then injected. The procedure was interrupted by bag-valve-mask ventilation because SpO2 fell to 86%. After ventilator assistance for 117 s, SpO2 recovered to 96%. During surgery, HR remained within 20% of the baseline, but BP increased by more than 20% of the baseline. However, systolic BP remained below 160 mmHg, so no additional drug administration was necessary. The value of BIS was maintained between 55 and 80. The total surgery time was 20 min and the total anesthesia time was 40 min. The patient was discharged after 1 day of monitoring in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), without dyspnea or complications. +Dyspnea improved noticeably, but on physical examination, grade II subglottic stenosis and stridor remained, thus necessitating a second steroid injection 1 month later. Based on our previous experience, we considered that there was a need to improve oxygenation during the procedure, so we decided to apply Optiflow®. In the same manner as in the first operation, the patient was placed in the 30° sitting position, and standard American Society of Anesthesiologists and BIS monitoring were applied. Baseline vital signs were as follows: BP, 102/58 mmHg; HR, 70 beats/min; and SpO2, 94%. O2 (100% warmed, humidified) was supplied through a nasal cannula at a rate of 30 L/min for preoxygenation. The patient tolerated this well, without any complaints. Dexmedetomidine was used for sedation at the same dose as before. Once the patient was unconscious, the O2 flow rate was raised to 70 L/min. EtCO2 was monitored by placing the EtCO2 sampling line at the nostril next to the Optiflow® nasal cannula; however, a low value was obtained, so we could only confirm self-respiration by monitoring the shape of the waveform . Topical anesthesia was applied by packing gauze into both nostrils. This disturbed the O2 supply through the Optiflow® nasal cannula; therefore, we inserted an oral airway to maintain airway patency, and the Optiflow® nasal cannula was transferred to the opening of the oral airway. The EtCO2 line was also transferred to the opening of the oral airway, but it still showed a low value; thus, only the shape of waveform was monitored . SpO2 was maintained at 98–100%, and no intervention, such as mask ventilation or jet ventilation, was required during surgery. Despite self-respiration, there was a drop in SpO2 to 86% due to O2 leakage; the Optiflow® nasal cannula dislocated from the airway opening. After fixing the nasal cannula to the airway with plaster , SpO2 immediately recovered to 99% and no additional desaturation events occurred. The vital signs were stable within 20% of baseline. Additional bolus of midazolam was injected to prevent the event of awareness because the value of BIS was maintained between 70 and 79 when the procedure was performed; 1mg for oral airway insertion, 2 mg for gauze packing into both nostrils. During the operation, the value of BIS was well maintained between 35 and 50, and spontaneous breathing was generally maintained well. The patient endured the surgical stimuli without coughing and movement throughout entire operation. The total operation time was 15 min and total anesthesia time was 40 min. The surgeon had prepared jet ventilation because of the experience during the previous surgery, but ultimately did not use it; thus, the surgeon was highly satisfied with THRIVE. After the surgery, the patient was transferred to the ICU. Arterial Blood Gas Analysis (aBGA) was performed after arrival in the ICU; partial pressure of O2, 94 mmHg; partial pressure of CO2 (PaCO2), 49 mmHg; pH, 7.30; bicarbonate, 21.3 mEq/L.

At the age of 21, she started insulin therapy. A wound defect (trophic ulcer) in the area of the inner surface of the right thigh was diagnosed at the age of 35; after a few months, diabetic neuro-osteoarthropathy of the right foot was also diagnosed. For 3 months, the patient used a Total Contact Cast with positive effects. The patient had amenorrhea with 2 episodes of menorrhagia in her life between the ages of 18 and 19. Bilateral cataracts were first diagnosed at the age of 22, and were treated surgically 12 years later. Marked diffuse osteoporosis was diagnosed at the age of 28 by a multi-layer spiral CT (Computed Tomography) scan. +She had acromegaloid features, phlebomegaly and hypertrophy of the skeletal muscles in the upper and lower extremities, muscular hypotonia, generalized lipoatrophy, but no signs of hirsutism and clitoromegaly were found. Her height was 160 cm, weight 46.8 kg, BMI (Body mass index) 18.1 kg/m2. +Skin fold measurements, impedancemetry and “Total body” densitometry showed a significant decrease of subcutaneous fat tissue. The skin fold measurements were as following: supraclavicular skin fold, 4 mm; subscapular skin fold, 6 mm; triceps skin fold, 4 mm; anterior surface of the abdomen skin fold, 4 mm; hip skin fold, 6 mm; anterior surface of the thigh skin fold, 6 mm; posterior surface of the tibia skin fold, 3 mm. Impedancemetry showed 11.9% of body fat, and “Total body” densitometry demonstrated 7.8% of total fat . An abdominal ultrasound showed hepatosplenomegaly with severe hepatic steatosis. There was no cardiac pathology, except sinus tachycardia shown in the electrocardiogram. The densitometry showed severe osteoporosis of the lumbar spine (T-score L1-L4: − 5.6), osteoporosis of the proximal femur (T-score Neck: − 5.4). The laboratory data is presented in Table . +: a consanguineous marriage of grandparents (cousins) from the father’s side, type 2 diabetes (father and grandmother from the father’s side), breast cancer (father’s sister), acute myocardial infarction (2 father’s brothers), arterial hypertension (2 father’s brothers), bicornuate uterus and endometriosis (sister), Crohn’s disease (cousin from the father’s side), arterial hypertension and obesity (mother), death in early childhood from the unknown reason (mother’s brother and sister). The patient reported that the grandmother from the father’s side had a short stature. +The patient received insulin therapy (insulin glargine 20 U/day, insulin glulisine 40 U/day), nephroprotective therapy (enalapril 2.5 mg/day), bisoprolol 5 mg/day for tachycardia, antihyperuricemic therapy (allopurinol 150 mg/day), the native form of vitamin D, alfacalcidol and calcium for osteoporosis. The patient also receives symptomatic therapy for gastrointestinal pathology and nutritional therapy. +Based on typical clinical signs of generalized lipodystrophy (total lipoatrophy, muscular hypertrophy, phlebomegaly, acromegaloid features, hypertriglyceridemia, hepatosplenomegaly, steatohepatitis) and early onset of the disease, CGL was suspected. Taking into account muscular pathology, CGL type 4 appeared probable. Due to the variety of clinical features of different types of lipodystrophy syndromes and progeroid syndromes sequencing of 18 lipodystrophy candidate genes (AGPAT2, BSCL2, CAV1, CAVIN1, PSMB8, LMNA, PPARG, PLIN1, AKT2, CIDEC, LIPE, LMNB2, PIK3CA, PPP1R3A, POLD1, WRN, ZMPSTE24, BANF1) using a custom Ion Ampliseq panel and Personal Genome Machine (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) semiconductor sequencer (Ion Torrent) was performed. A novel pathogenic homozygous variant c.631G < T: p.E211X was detected in the CAVIN1 gene , confirming the diagnosis of CGL type 4. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1201_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1201_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..96a122f0c507e03e208f3939ebf4f0d25805f584 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1201_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +Our patient, a 64-year-old woman who was a non-smoker with a background history of epilepsy, presented to our respiratory clinic in May 2008 with a six-month history of productive cough with whitish sputum associated with three episodes of hemoptysis.

Postoperatively, the uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) of both eyes was 20/32. The corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was similar to the UDVA. +On examination, ICLs were in situ with anterior subcapsular cataracts in both eyes . Both eyes underwent anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT; CASIA SS-1000, Tomey Corp., Nagoya, Japan) imagining in the model of 3D. Then the ICL vault was manually measured from the back surface of the ICL to the front surface of crystalline lens, centered on the optic axis (shown as a white beam). The vault was shallow in the right eye and measured 72 μm through AS-OCT images. However, in the left eye, the ICL touched the anterior capsule, existing “0” vault .

Cavitation bubbles were trapped in the shallow space beneath the ICL around the capsulotomy area during the capsulotomy, developing from small bubbles into big ones .

Two weeks later, transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed progression of the epicardial effusion. Since there were no severe symptoms, we did not intervene. MRI showed a 25 × 28-mm mass in the right atrium exhibiting high signal intensity on T2-weighted images (C). Blood test results for tumor markers were negative. Coronary artery angiography revealed a feeding artery from the sinus node branch to the tumor. We investigated for embolization of the feeding artery, although we could not find any previous report of such embolization treatment of the feeding artery in the case of a cardiac tumor. These examinations were insufficient to make a definitive diagnosis. However, the tumor was resected to alleviate the persistent tamponade. +Preoperative transesophageal echocardiography, performed under general anesthesia, showed a mass measuring 28 × 41 mm originating from the free wall of the right atrium. It was not adherent to the tricuspid valve or septum and was thus resectable. Upon pericardiotomy, the tumor was visualized in the right atrium, adherent to the pericardium. The tumor was highly vascularized and had rough borders . Cardiopulmonary bypass was established between the ascending aorta and superior vena cava. A venous cannula was subsequently inserted into the right femoral artery, through the inferior vena cava, and into the front of the right atrium so as not to interfere with the tumor. We made an incision on the right atrium near the tumor and observed the presence of endocardium on the smooth surface of the mass. We biopsied a part of the tumor surface to obtain an intraoperative frozen section, which revealed the presence of a sarcoma. The tumor and adherent right atrial wall were removed with adequate margins to the greatest extent possible. The resected right atrial wall was reconstructed using a bovine pericardial patch. Pathological examination of the resected tumor revealed fusiform tumor cells in frequent mitosis and a rich blood supply with intraluminal red blood cells. Immunological staining was positive for CD34 expression . A pathological diagnosis of angiosarcoma was made; the resected end of the superior vena cava was tumor-free. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 12. Postoperative CT and echocardiography showed no residual tumor, while positron emission tomography revealed normal findings. Two months later, the patient received radiotherapy (heavy ion therapy) to the right atrium for a month at a dose of 64 Gy in 16 Fr. There was no local recurrence 6 months after surgery. However, metastasis to the lungs was identified. Although the patient received chemotherapy (paclitaxel and cisplatin), lung and liver metastases progressed . Unfortunately, the patient died of multiorgan failure due to multiple metastases 17 and 18 months after surgery and diagnosis, respectively. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1325_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1325_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..4a392ba23ede99161b63e774baa3da6aaec8e62c --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1325_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +An 84-year-old man with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) developed decompensated IOP in the right eye.

During the first year of follow-up at Ramathibodi Hospital, the patient was treated with 25 mg/week of etanercept [an anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agent], 25 mg/week of methotrexate, 2 g/day of sulfasalazine, and 5 mg/day of prednisolone. After 6 months of treatment with etanercept, she still had severe polyarthritis. Therefore, the etanercept was discontinued, and tocilizumab, a humanized anti-interleukin (IL)-6 receptor antibody, was started at that time. However, we could not use a standard dose of tocilizumab for SJIA (8 mg/kg every 2 weeks) in the early treatment period because of the patient’s socioeconomic situation. Therefore, she received tocilizumab at a dose of 8 mg/kg every 4 weeks. She partially responded to the tocilizumab; her IL-6 level slightly declined from 1105.0 to 574.2 pg/mL 5 months after starting the treatment. Her disease course still waxed and waned. Her arthritis relapsed while receiving the tocilizumab. Therefore, pulse methylprednisolone at 1 g/month, leflunomide at 20 mg/dose, and hydroxychloroquine at 200 mg/day were gradually added to the tocilizumab regimen. The rheumatologist noticed her first episode of albuminuria when her urine albumin dipstick result was 2+. This proteinuria showed evidence of progression at her 1-year follow-up, when her urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) exhibited deterioration from 0.87 to 3.00 (normal ratio, <0.2). A nephrologist was then consulted to diagnose the cause of the progressive proteinuria on the background of refractory SJIA. +On physical examination, her vital signs were normal. She was cachectic (body weight, <3rd percentile) and had a short stature (height, <10th percentile). Her wrists, knees, and ankles were stiff and inflamed. There were no signs or symptoms of edema. Other physical findings were unremarkable. Her urinalysis showed an inactive sediment. Significant proteinuria was confirmed by a 24-h urine collection method, which showed a total urine protein of 1295 mg/day (1792 mg/1.73m2/day). Blood chemistry analysis showed hypoalbuminemia (2.68 g/dL), a normal serum cholesterol level (152 mg/dL), and a normal serum creatinine level (0.47 mg/dL). Infectious screenings were negative for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and human immunodeficiency viral infection. Other diagnostic investigation results are listed in Table . +The renal tissue contained eight nonsclerotic glomeruli. The glomeruli were unremarkable. The mesangium showed focal expansion without hypercellularity. Depositions of acellular eosinophilic amorphous material were seen in the glomerular hilum, mesangium, arteriolar wall, and interstitium . The material demonstrated fuchsinophilic staining, and Congo red staining was positive with apple green birefringence under polarized microscopy. Mild tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis were also seen. An immunofluorescence study was negative for IgG, IgM, IgA, C3, C1q, fibrinogen, kappa, and lambda. Electron microscopy revealed randomly oriented fibrils of 8 to 10 nm in diameter in the mesangium, interstitium, and arteries . The glomerular basement membrane was unremarkable, but the podocytes showed partial foot process effacement under electron microscopy. These biopsy findings confirmed renal amyloidosis. +Because the amyloidosis was secondary to uncontrolled SJIA, the tocilizumab was increased from a dose of 8 mg/kg every 4 weeks to a dose of 8 mg/kg every 2 weeks. We also started enalapril at 5 mg/day (0.12 mg/kg/day) for an additional antiproteinuric effect. The other drugs were continued at their same dosages. Two months later, the patient’s Childhood Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index score decreased. Her UPCR had also decreased from 3.00 to 0.92, and her arthritis improved 3 months after the tocilizumab increment. At the 1-year follow-up, her UPCR had decreased to 0.23 and renal function remained stable, with a serum creatinine concentration of around 0.42 to 0.52 mg/dL. Her C-reactive protein concentration had returned to normal and her IL-6 concentration had slightly decreased. Other follow-up investigation results are listed in Table . +A 3-mL venous blood sample was collected from the patient for DNA extraction. Next-generation sequencing was performed by SureSelect V5 using the Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform. Sanger sequencing was performed for variant verification. Variants of the MEFV gene (NM#000243, transcript ID: ENST00000219596) were analyzed. A heterozygous c.442G > C (pE148Q) mutation in the MEFV gene was identified. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1381_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1381_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..eccbd12125d23999e2ed9f9e14b465a027df53e0 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1381_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,15 @@ +A 69-year-old lady presented to our hospital with a few days’ history of intermittent episodes of breathlessness, and reduced exercise tolerance to a few yards.

She was a current smoker of over 30 pack years and had been abstinent from alcohol for 3 years. +On arrival, our patient was alert and oriented. Her observations showed a pulse rate of 127bpm, blood pressure (BP) of 166/78 mmHg, respiratory rate of 34, oxygen saturation of 86% on 5 L oxygen, and temperature of 36.3°C. Auscultation of her chest revealed bilateral wheeze, with normal heart sounds. She had cold peripheries with a prolonged capillary refill time and no peripheral oedema. +Her first arterial blood gas (ABG) revealed acute decompensated type two respiratory failure (T2RF) . Given her background, she was treated initially as an infective exacerbation of likely underlying, undiagnosed COPD, and was started on antibiotics, nebulizers, and steroids. +Within a couple of hours, she became increasingly agitated and subsequently less responsive. A repeat ABG revealed worsening T2RF and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in the form of bi-level positive airway pressure was commenced. +Chest X-ray revealed hyperinflation with upper lobe diversion , and her ECG showed ST elevation in the anterior leads . Blood tests revealed an elevated white cell count, troponin, brain natriuretic peptide, and D-dimer . She was reviewed by intensive care, and the working diagnosis was ST-elevation myocardial infarction with LV failure resulting in T2RF. ACS treatment with aspirin, clopidogrel, and fondaparinux was commenced, and urgent cardiology opinion was requested. +Upon cardiology review, a bedside echocardiogram showed severe LV systolic dysfunction, with dyskinesis of the mid and apical septal and lateral walls, with preservation of basal function. The mid and apical segments of the RV free wall were dyskinetic with preservation of basal function. A possible diagnosis of BTC was proposed. However, based on the presence of Q waves across the chest leads on the ECG, and the fact that BTC is a diagnosis of exclusion, the differential diagnosis was that of a prior infarct with persistent ST elevation. +A computed tomography pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) ruled out pulmonary embolism, and the patient was responding well to NIV, with a repeat ABG 3 hours after initiating NIV showing resolution of acidosis and hypercapnia, but persistent hypoxaemia . +Her troponin increased to 2000 ng/L, and in view of the patient’s complex background and acute illness, she was managed in our intensive care department. She was deemed too unstable to undergo invasive coronary angiography. +On her second day in hospital, she became hypotensive with a BP of around 90/60 mmHg. Repeat ECG showed resolution of Q waves, and a new right bundle branch block with deep T-wave inversion. Her troponin had further risen to 3000 ng/L. Repeat bedside echocardiogram remained consistent with BTC . The systolic pulmonary pressure (SPAP) was elevated at 47–52 mmHg, estimated from the moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Metaraminol and subsequently dobutamine and noradrenaline were commenced for BP support. Our local tertiary centre advised switching these to a levosimendan infusion for 24 hours, and intra-aortic balloon pump support was felt unnecessary. Our patient haemodynamically stabilised with improved BP and urine output. +Over Days 4 and 5, following the cessation of levosimendan, our patient still required low dose inotropic support. +On Day 6, our patient developed rate-controlled atrial fibrillation (AF) with ST elevation in V1-V4 with biphasic T waves, although, she remained free of chest pain . In spite of her new AF, repeat echocardiogram ( revealed complete recovery of the LV systolic function with no evidence of regional wall motion abnormality. Her right ventricle continued to show basal wall preservation of function and mid to apical RV dilatation and dyskinesis, and SPAP of 54 mmHg. Troponin level had further fallen to 329 ng/L. Supportive management continued. +Over the next 48 hours, after clinical improvement, inotropic support was weaned. On Day 8, repeat echocardiography showed that in addition to the prior recovery of her LV function, her RV function had also fully recovered (, ). The previously documented SPAP remained >56 mmHg, which was interpreted as her baseline due to her COPD. Invasive coronary angiography confirmed no obstructive coronary artery disease , thus we could confirm that our patient had indeed suffered from BTC, as up until this point, we had been unable to rule out myocardial infarction. Her ECGs continued to show persistent anterior ST elevation with biphasic T-wave changes. +Our patient continued to improve and was stepped down to the coronary care unit and was engaging well with inpatient rehabilitation. Unfortunately, on the morning of Day 15, she developed another episode of T2RF, possibly due to aspiration following a choking episode on breakfast. Focused echocardiography ruled out the recurrence of TC, and she responded swiftly to NIV, requiring less than 24 hours. She was transferred to the respiratory ward for ongoing management of her airway disease and discharged 2 weeks later. +Co-incidentally, her thyroid function tests (TFT) on Day 6 showed raised T4 and undetectable thyroid-stimulating hormone level . After confirmation with repeated blood tests, the diagnosis of thyrotoxicosis was made. The endocrine review and subsequent thyroid-receptor antibody levels suggested autoimmune thyroiditis or Graves’ disease. At a later stage, carbimazole treatment was commenced and beta-blocker continued with regular endocrine follow-up. Our patient had a brief admission in September 2020 with mild shortness of breath.

The limb shaking was coarse, rhythmic and flapping wing-like, accompanied by neck torsion while sparing the face and trunk (Supp2.Video.). The first episode occurred 14 h before admission when the patient had arisen from supine position, and another episode also occurred when a similar postural change occurred soon after admission. Both episodes lasted 2–3 min and stopped 20 s after the patient changed back to the supine position. The patient had no consciousness disturbances, urinary incontinence, dystonia posture or tongue biting during the attacks. The patient reported a nonremarkable personal history and had no history of epilepsy, stroke, hypertension and other cerebrovascular disease risk factors, together with no report of any major trauma, surgery or any other events in the previous 6 months. Physical examination showed no neurological deficits except mild weakness in her left limb (Medical Research Council scale: 4). The neuropsychological evaluation was normal. Cardiological evaluations, including echocardiography, electrocardiography and cardiac biochemical markers (pro-brain natriuretic peptide, creatine kinase MB isoenzyme, troponin T), were without apparent abnormalities. Video-electroencephalogram and diffusion-weighted imaging were performed immediately after admission with no remarkable findings, whereas time-of-flight imaging magnetic resonance angiography (TOF-MRA) revealed multiple irregular stenoses of the right ICA accompanied by multiple filling defects . On native source TOF-MRA images, a "dual lumen sign" with an intimal flap was detected in the right ICA . Spontaneous right ICA dissection was suspected. Before further investigation, statin therapy with dual antiplatelet therapy (hydroclopidogrel, 75 mg per day, combined with aspirin, 100 mg per day) was administered for three days with no recurrence of limb shaking. More examinations were performed afterwards. On contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) and sagittal black-blood T1WI, an intravascular haematoma with irregular lumen stenosis was observed, which overall indicated right ICA dissection . The fact that TIA occurred in a relatively young female with no cerebrovascular risk factors led us to evaluate the cervical and cerebral vasculature more thoroughly and precisely. Thus, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed. The DSA further confirmed the dissection because a "line-like" change was observed , while the renal artery was normal. Meanwhile, in the left ICA, we detected a “string-of-beads” appearance , which led to a suspicion of FMD. Although the ICA dissection related to the limb shaking TIA was not at the same site as the “string-of-beads” appearance, we still highly suspected that the ICA dissection was probably secondary to FMD. Sustained dual anti-platelet therapy was prescribed after discharge, and we suggested that she measure her blood pressure daily. Three months later, the patient returned to our department with no recurrence of limb shaking or neurological deficits. High-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HRMR-VWI) was performed to detect pathological changes in the vessel wall. The previous dissection in the right ICA had been mostly resolved, and only a few spotted intramural haematomas were left . Notably, a characteristic "string-of-beads” appearance was observed on the right ICA at this time . Considering the overall clinical data, the patient was diagnosed with limb shaking TIA due to ICA dissection with FMD. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1554_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1554_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..cf1a0811b90f0ff34172382abd9d96da530688cb --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1554_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 46-year-old Brahmin woman with a history of a hormone receptor-negative invasive ductal type of adenocarcinoma of her left breast (stage pT3N3aM0) presented with pain and blurring of vision of her right eye. +Diagnosis of left-sided stage IIIc breast carcinoma was made 2 years ago when she developed pain in her left arm.

In June 2015, the patient presented to our hospital with symptoms of chest tightness and lower back discomfort. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a pseudoaneurysm of the thoracic aorta and recommended surgical intervention. However, the patient declined the surgery because he considered the risk, especially paraplegia, to be high. Six months later, follow-up CT examination revealed no improvement in the condition of the pseudoaneurysm, leading to the decision to seek further treatment at our hospital in Jan 2016. +Preoperative X-rays showed an abnormal bulging shadow in the descending aorta and a slightly enlarged aortic arch. CT scans revealed that a screw used in spinal surgery penetrated the wall of the descending aorta and locally formed a pseudoaneurysm, with the size of 27*42 mm, in the mid-segment of the descending aorta, with a significant amount of intraluminal thrombus and shell-like calcifications. The proximal landing diameter is approximately 23 mm, and the distal landing diameter is approximately 22 mm. +Under general anesthesia, the right femoral artery was accessed, and angiography confirmed the pseudoaneurysm in the mid-segment of the descending aorta, just located at the level of the spinal column fixation instruments. No significant AKA was identified during the procedure, and several pairs of intercostal arteries of similar sizes were visible. A 28–80 mm stent graft (Lifetech, Shenzhen, China) was placed via the right common femoral artery to seal the lesion. Subsequent angiography showed slight type Ia endoleak. Considering the risk of endoleak and the potential durability problems caused by friction between the stent graft and the screw, we decided to implant a second stent graft. Subsequently, a 28–140 mm stent graft (COOK, Bloomington, USA) was deployed just inside the first one. The second stent graft lengthened the proximal landing zone and strengthened the local abrasion resistance. The final angiography revealed complete exclusion of the pseudoaneurysm with no endoleak . Due to the orthopedic consultation determining that the removal would pose significant risks and the patient’s refusal of further open surgery, the screws were not extracted. Extubation was carried out in the operating room under general anesthesia, and assessment of lower limb function was performed. The operation was successful, the patient recovered well and was discharged from hospital 5 days later. There were no complications such as paraplegia, paresis or infection.

Autoimmune diagnostics returned negative and we did not find any signs of acute human parvovirus B-19 infection, mononucleosis, streptococcal infection, influenza, or rubella upon diagnostic work-up, which have to be considered as potential differential diagnoses in this case.

The overall left ventricular systolic function was low-normal with an ejection fraction between 50% and 55% and no regional wall motion abnormalities. A transoesophageal echocardiogram ruled out vegetations but corroborated findings from the patient’s cardiac catheterization including a dilated and tortuous LMCA and branches, as well as a dilated and tortuous vessel draining into the pulmonary artery. This vessel was felt to be likely the RCA. Overall, these findings were consistent with a diagnosis of ARCAPA (see and Video 2). +In the CVICU, the patient was maintained on inotropes and vasopressors. High-sensitivity troponin plateaued at 26 040 ng/L and this was felt to be consistent with an RV infarction. In the setting of concomitant volume overload and anuric acute kidney injury, continuous renal replacement therapy was initiated. She was subsequently found to be bacteremic with positive blood cultures for Streptococcus bovis but not stable enough to pursue a colonoscopy to rule out a gastrointestinal malignancy; management consisted of antimicrobial therapy (ceftriaxone/metronidazole) with consultation from infectious diseases. +The patient’s clinical status eventually stabilized enough to be extubated and transferred to the cardiology ward, although she remained dependent on intermittent haemodialysis without expected renal recovery. Potential therapeutic options for ARCAPA were discussed at interdisciplinary heart team rounds but unfortunately, she was felt not to be a surgical candidate in view of her age and clinical status. The patient decided to pursue comfort measures and requested cessation of dialysis. She was transferred to a hospice for palliative care and passed away just over a month later. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1789_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1789_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..86353db7f67f5a8d0d55785c27be16b36dbe6de9 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1789_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +A 23-year-old man of Chinese descent presented to the emergency department for dyspnoea and pain in the left upper back. He had initially presented to the emergency department after an episode of severe vomiting following alcohol consumption and mild back pain three days prior, and was treated symptomatically and discharged. The patient denied any recent trauma. He had no other past medical issues nor known congenital conditions. +Upon review, the patient was in severe respiratory distress and haemodynamically unstable with blood pressure of 95/70 mmHg, heart rate 162 beats per minute, respiratory rate of 40 breaths per minute and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) of 87% on 100% oxygen administered via non-rebreather mask. Although unable to lie still, he was oriented and able to speak in short phrases. His trachea was deviated and lung sounds were absent over his left chest. +A chest X-ray (CXR) performed was interpreted as a moderately large left-sided pneumothorax with herniation of bowel into the left hemithorax . Due to patient instability, no computer tomography (CT) scan was performed after the CXR. A 14-gauge intravenous cannula was inserted into the second intercostal space along the mid-clavicular line for needle decompression in the sitting position.. However, air, followed by approximately 900 ml of faecal fluid, was aspirated, with no improvement in the patient’s symptoms. A repeat CXR showed a slight improvement of tracheal deviation, but with further bowel herniation taking up most of the left lung field. There was still concern that the pneumothorax had not been completely relieved. +Arterial blood gas (ABG) indicated severe combined respiratory and metabolic acidosis (pH 7.212, PaCO2 34.6 mmHg, PaO2 282 mmHg, base excess -14 and serum bicarbonate 13.9 mmol L-1. Serum lactate levels were elevated at 3.2 mg dL-1). +The patient was immediately transferred to the operating theatre for surgical intervention of his left diaphragmatic rupture, complicated by visceral herniation and possible left tension pneumothorax, with iatrogenic puncture of the herniated bowel. After discussion with the surgeons, a repeated needle decompression or chest tube insertion prior to induction of anaesthesia was not attempted due to the high failure rate attributed to the herniated bowel’s position, uncertain anatomy and the patient’s inability to cooperate. +After adequate preoxygenation, rapid sequence induction was performed with cricoid pressure and intravenous propofol 150 mg, rocuronium 50 mg, and remifentanil target-controlled infusion at 1 ng ml-1. The SpO2 before induction was 92%, and the lowest SpO2 obtained while the airway was being secured was 80%. A left-sided double-lumen tube (DLT) was inserted and both the tracheal and bronchial cuffs were inflated immediately prior to the commencement of one lung ventilation. Rapid deflation of the left lung using a suction catheter was then carried out. Position of the left bronchial cuff was finally confirmed to be in the left main bronchus with a fiberoptic scope. Although the SpO2 improved to 100%, there was significant hypotension post-induction to lowest 63/45 mmHg, which was quickly addressed with boluses of phenylephrine and adrenaline to a total of 1000 μg and 30 μg respectively. An ABG obtained after induction showed pH 7.091, PaCO2 61.5 mmHg, PaO2 194 mmHg, base excess -11 and serum bicarbonate 18.7 mmol L-1. +Intraoperatively, a 10 cm by 6 cm Bochdalek diaphragmatic hernia defect with herniation of the greater curve of stomach, spleen and long loop of transverse colon into the left hemithorax was found. A large perforation with necrotic edges in the greater curve of the stomach was also noted, with feculent material in the pleural and peritoneal cavity. No other obvious defects of the small and large bowels were seen. +Simultaneous assessment and resuscitation of his persistent hypotension, tachycardia and hypoxia was carried out while surgery was ongoing. Based on the patient’s clinical history and operative findings, it was likely that he had a combination of obstructive, hypovolemic and distributive shocks due to tension pneumothorax, intravascular depletion and feculent peritonitis. He was aggressively fluid resuscitated with 1.8 litres of intravenous crystalloids and 2 litres of colloids. Noradrenaline and adrenaline infusions were commenced shortly after induction and maintained on 0.2 μg kg-1 min-1 for both infusions. His antibiotics were escalated from intravenous (IV) ceftriaxone and metronidazole to IV piperacillin-tazocin, and additional fungal coverage with IV anidulafungin was given. IV hydrocortisone was also administered. At the end of the surgery, he remained on noradrenaline 0.2 μg kg-1 min-1 and vasopressin 0.03 units kg-1 hr-1. +As the tension pneumothorax could not be surgically relieved until the herniated abdominal structures had been reduced, attempts were made to decompress the left pleural cavity with continued suction via the bronchial lumen of the left-sided DLT, to limited success. Eventually, a wedge gastrectomy of the stomach, diaphragmatic hernia reduction and left chest tube insertion was performed, followed by a temporary abdominal closure with the diaphragmatic defect being reinforced with surgical towels. Estimated blood loss was 800 ml and surgery lasted approximately 3 hours. +A repeat ABG at the conclusion of the surgery showed persistent combined respiratory and metabolic acidosis (pH 7.153, PaCO2 54.5 mmHg, PaO2 128 mmHg, base excess -10 and serum bicarbonate 19.1 mmol L-1). The double-lumen tube was exchanged for a single-lumen tracheal tube and the patient was sent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) for continued resuscitation. Postoperatively, a repeated CXR showed reduction of the left diaphragmatic hernia with re-expansion of the left lung . Dual vasopressor support was weaned off on Day 2 of admission and the patient did not have high ventilatory requirements. +The patient returned to the operating theatre for a relook surgery on Day 3 of admission. The hernia defect was repaired with a synthetic mesh and primary abdominal closure was performed uneventfully. The patient was extubated on Day 5 of admission and discharged from the ICU on Day 6 of admission. CXR on Day 6 of admission showed resolution of pneumothorax and reduction of diaphragmatic hernia .

High-throughput sequencing of exons of disease-causing genes were performed on the patient and her parents. Genomic DNA extraction and library preparation followed the standard Illumina protocols (Illumina, San Diego, USA) with minor adaptation provided by Joy Orient (Joy Orient Translational Medicine Research Center Co. Ltd., Beijing, China). Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies, USA) was used for quality control of DNA size distribution and enrichment. Target capturing was performed using Roche (Roche AG., Basel, Switzerland) product customized by Joy Orient, which uses 91,867 probes to capture total 7,465,978 bp of exons regions of 3372 genes that are potentially associated with 4213 known Mendelian genetic diseases. A HiSeq2500 sequencer was used to perform high-throughput sequencing. Exon-enriched DNA was sequenced by the Illumina hiseq2500 platform following the manufacturer’s instructions (Illumina). Raw image files were processed by the BclToFastq (Illumina) for base calling and generating the raw data. The low-quality variations were filtered out using the quality score ≥ 20 (Q20). The sequencing reads were aligned to the NCBI human reference genome version hg19 using BWA. Samtools and Pindel were used to screen SNP and indel of the sequence. All genetic variants were screened by pathogenicity, mode of inheritance and clinical phenotypes . +Importantly, a de novo heterozygous mutation c.3953A > G in SCN8A (the coverage of the variant (DP) is 174, allele frequency (AF) = 70/174 = 0.4) was identified and confirmed by Sanger Sequencing . The detailed information of this variant is as the followings: SCN8A (NM_014191.4), missense mutation, c.3953A > G (exon22), p.N1318S (de novo), location: chr12, 52,180,336. This missense mutation causes an amino acid substitution of an asparagine residue with a serine residue (p.N1318S) which occurs at a highly conserved LINKER position between the S4 and S5 segments in the third transmembrane domain (DIII) of SCN8A protein . This mutation site is absent from ClinVar and HGMD Public . It is neither recorded in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) , which contains exome sequencing data from 60,706 unrelated individuals, nor in our 100 in-house controls. The substitution p.N1318S is predicted to be highly deleterious by bioinformatic tools, which predict possible impact of an amino acid substitution on the structure and function of a human protein, such as Polyphen2 (HumDiv score = 1; HumVar score = 0.998), SIFT (score = 0), Mutation Taster (score = 1) and a comprehensive index CADD phred score (C score = 23.2) . +Since the probable causative gene mutation was found, levetiracetam was stopped, but her family reported more seizures. Accordingly, the therapeutic regimen of a sodium channel blocker, lamotrigine (5 mg/kg/day), valproic acid (24 mg/kg/day) and levetiracetam (10 mg/kg/day) were employed, then she had a second temporary seizure-resolved period of 5 months, even under high fever. +SCN8A is widely expressed in the central and peripheral nerve systems during the neuronal maturation [, ]. It is mapped to chromosome 12q13, encoding neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel α 8-subunit Nav1.6, which forms a complex combined with β subunits to modulate current conductance [, , ]. Nav1.6 consists of four transmembrane domains (DI-DIV), each containing six segments (S1-S6). Four S4 transmembrane segments are responsible for the voltage sense which contain positively charged arginine and histidine residues. There are fast and slow inactivation phases. Fast-inactivation phase is provided by internal DIII-DIV linkers to occlude the ion-conducting pores. Slow-inactivation phase is involved in a collapse of the pore, which is composed of S5-S6 segments of four domains . +Missense mutations of SCN8A accounting for 1% of EE are associated with a wide-spectrum phenotype of heterogenous epilepsy, and SCN8A missense mutations are recently recognized to be associated with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy type 13, ref. [–] which displays multiple seizure types, including focal seizures, generalized seizures (tonic, myoclonic, absence) and epileptic spasms. These patients may experience stormy epilepsies [, ]. Fever rarely triggers seizures [, , ]. Severity of psychomotor delay ranges widely after seizure onset [, ]. MRI studies are typically normal . There is no clear correlation between phenotypic severity and genetic mutations so far [, ]. SCN8A mutations lead to premature channel opening, impaired inactivation and increased persistent current. Stormy seizures are reported resulting from gain-of-function effects . It could explain that some patients respond well to sodium channel blockers in halting seizures [, , , ]. +As to our patient, she was categorized as the intermediate phenotype of EE, who manifested mild psychomotor retardation and infrequent seizure episodes, though developing stormy onset of generalized tonic and tonic-clonic seizures concomitant with normal EEG background activity [, , ]. Fever barely triggered seizures in our patient as previously reported [, , ]. MRI demonstrated no significant findings. She responds well to the sodium channel blockers. Targeted exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous missense mutation (c.3953A > G, p.N1318S) in SCN8A which is located in the internal S4-S5 linker of the DIII. This mutation could alter the function of the down-stream protein. Since SCN8A (c.3953A > G, p.N1318S) is a de novo missense mutation, it is necessary to further validate its function in the future. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1815_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1815_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..7dc0ea6248865b892f8f95bc458ea3f737a0c3b1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1815_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +The patient was a 46-year-old man who complained of painful numbness in the left little finger for 4 mo with no apparent cause. +The numbness and pain in his left little finger had gradually worsened over the past 4 mo but was not of serious concern. +The patient had a 13-year history of ANLL and a 20-year history of psoriasis; both diseases had been fully treated previously by systemic therapy. +Notably, there was no family history of the same disease. +Physical examination of the whole body revealed no palpable lymph nodes.

It was known from her medical history that her first psychotic episode (acute paranoid syndrome) occurred in 1990. The patient was hospitalized for a few weeks and was treated with antipsychotic drug (perazine) with a good result. Within the next 10 years the patient was hospitalized 4 times and diagnosed with depression and mania. The depressive episodes were treated with different antidepressant drugs (imipramine, perazine and venlafaxine) in combination with mood stabilizers (carbamazepine and/or lithium), whereas antipsychotic drugs were used to treat the mania. After the last hospitalization (in 2000) for depression, the patient continued her treatment (imipramine, perazine, lithium and carbamazepine) as an out-patient until 2008. The treatment of the patient was modified due to fluctuations in her mental state. Imipramine and carbamazepine were withdrawn and fluoxetine was commenced. In 2015, the patient was hospitalized owning to acute intoxication with lithium (> 1.2 mmol/l), renal failure and extrapyramidal symptoms. Lithium was withdrawn and gabapentine was initiated for the extrapyramidal symptoms. In addition, hypothyroidism was diagnosed and levothyroxine was prescribed, which patient took until 2016. Within the next 2 years the patient was taking fluoxetine (60 mg/d), perazine (150 mg/d) and gabapentine (800 mg/d). During that time carbamazepine was commenced (200 mg/d, max. to 800 mg/d) to stabilize the patient’s mood, but owing to severe deterioration of her mental state (intensification of both psychotic and depressive symptoms), the drug was withdrawn and lithium (max.1000 mg/d) was reintroduced. Additionally, olanzapine (5 mg/d) for psychotic symptoms and biperiden (4 mg/d) for muscle stiffness were added. Throughout the disease (since the first psychotic episode in 1990 until the last hospitalization in 2017), there were no psychiatric comorbidities diagnosed. Periodic hypothyroidism (in 2015) treated with levothyroxine and renal failure caused by acute intoxication with lithium were notable for the patient’s history. +The patient was admitted to the psychiatric clinic in September 2017 due to depressed mood, ideas of reference, delusions of persecution and anxiety. During her admission disturbances of consciousness were not observed and the patient was auto- and allopsychically orientated. The patient’s general condition was good (blood pressure: 115/70 mmHg, pulse 72, respiratory rate16/min and BMI 27,22). A regular systolic murmur was noted and lungs were clear bilaterally. The abdomen was symmetrical without distention and bowel sounds were normal in quality and intensity in all areas. The patient had dry skin and varicose veins of the lower extremities. Her laboratory results showed lithium levels of 1.48 mmol/l, GFR 35 ml/min, creatinine 1.56 mg/dl and WBC 10.42 × 10^3/ml. A urinary tract infection was diagnosed (leukocytosis 10.2 × 10^3/ml, positive result of urine inoculation-Klebsiella oxytoca) and antibiotic therapy was initiated (sulfamethoxazole with trimethoprim). After 5 days of treatment her physical state deteriorated, she developed a fever of 38.4 °C and her laboratory results revealed a toxic level of lithium carbonate 2.34 mmol/l, creatinine 2.05 mg/dl and GFR 25 ml/min. Acute renal failure was diagnosed by a nephrologist and as a result the lithium was withdrawn and the antibiotic therapy was replaced with ceftriaxone 2 g/d (lower nephrotoxicity). Normal saline was administered to the patient for two days in order to decrease the toxic level of lithium. The patient’s general condition and laboratory findings improved (level of lithium 1.34 mmol/l, creatinine 1.94 mg/l, GFR 27 ml/min), and 7 days later the antibiotic therapy was discontinued. Other laboratory results (biochemistry, hematology, lipidemia, ions and hormone levels- TSH, fT3, fT4) were found to be within normal range, so other somatic disorders, apart from renal failure, were excluded. +After stabilization of her somatic condition, and despite her treatment (the patient was continuing treatment with fluoxetine 60 mg/d, olanzapine 5 mg/d, gabapentin 800 mg/d, perazine 150 mg/d and biperiden 4 mg/d), the patient’s mental state deteriorated significantly (depressed mood, ideas of reference, aggravated delusions of persecution), so the treatment was changed accordingly. All drugs taken by the patient so far were gradually withdrawn (olanzapine and perazine over 6 days; fluoxetine over 4 weeks, gabapentine over 3 weeks and biperiden over 1 week) and lamotrigine (200 mg/d) and aripiprazole (30 mg/d) were initiated. Lamotrigine was used to replace lithium, as it is a good mood stabilizer without any nephrotoxic influence on the kidneys. Lamotrigine was commenced at a dose of 25 mg/d, which the patient took for 2 weeks. The dosage was then increased to 50 mg/d for a week, and then incrementally increased each week up to the final dose of 200 mg/d. Aripiprazole was initiated at a dose of 7.5 mg/d in order to reduce delusions and was uptitrated to the final dose of 30 mg/d over 2 weeks. As a result of the insufficient effectiveness of aripiprazole and lamotrigine treatment, which lasted 6 weeks, (ideas of reference, delusions of persecutions were maintained and problems with sleep), quetiapine was added (50 mg/d) in the 6th week. A partial good response to the treatment was observed after 7 days (partial reduction of delusions and mood stabilization), so the doctors decided to uptitrate the quetiapine dose to 400 mg/d, which took 9 days. Further treatment with aripirazole, lamotrigine and quetiapine resulted in NMS development. A description of NMS and its treatment is presented in Table . +To assess and quantify the causal role of antipsychotic drugs in the mediation of NMS, the Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR) Probability Scale was used. According to this scale each drug was assigned to a probability category on the basis of points, which were calculated as follows: aripiprazole 2, lamotrigine 3 and quetiapine 5.

At the time of initial referral for transplant evaluation in 2011, she had advanced chronic kidney disease but had not started dialysis. Medical records indicated that she had a slow rise in serum creatinine since 2006 but had never undergone a renal biopsy. No specific etiology had been ascribed to her kidney disease. Due to a history of 5 pregnancies that culminated in 3 live births and 2 miscarriages, she was broadly sensitized to human leukocyte antigens (HLA). Routine screening for anti-HLA antibodies with a Luminex-based solid-phase assay using single-antigen beads detected multiple class I and class II HLA antibodies in April 2016. Based on our institutional policy to denote HLA, to which antibodies of a strength greater than 4,000 mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) units are detected in the transplant candidate serum, as unacceptable, our patient's calculated panel reactive antibody (CPRA) level was 93%. +After an approximate wait-time of 5 years, she received an organ offer from a 46-year-old male deceased donor, who succumbed to a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The deceased donor had a terminal creatinine of 1.2 mg/dL, and the organ offered was assigned a kidney donor profile index of 38%. Pre-implantation biopsy of the transplanted kidney demonstrated glomerulosclerosis in 4 out of 78 sampled glomeruli. Fibrosis affecting up to 10% of the tubule interstitium, mild arteriosclerosis, and patchy areas of acute tubular necrosis were also noted. Donor and recipient were blood type compatible (ABO type A). Complement-dependent cytotoxicity and flow cytometry-based cross-match testing of the current recipient's serum with donor T and B lymphocytes were negative. However, donor-specific antibodies (DSA) to class I antigen-HLA B45 (MFI 3,182) and class II antigen-DQ6 (MFI 3,802) were detected by Luminex-based solid-phase assay in the serum sample from April 2016. We consider antibody strength of MFI 2,000 or greater to be clinically significant. Since this suggested prior sensitization to donor HLA, the risk of early antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) due to a memory B-cell response was predicted to be high. Transplant surgery was uneventful with minimal intra-operative blood loss, and the organ incurred a cold-ischemia time of 15 h. +Immunosuppressive therapy for induction consisted of 6 mg/kg of intravenous (IV) antithymocyte globulin given in divided doses over 4 days; tapering doses of IV methylprednisolone given on postoperative days (PODs) 0–4. In addition, 375 mg/m2 of rituximab was administered on POD 1 to suppress humoral alloimmune response. For maintenance immunosuppressive therapy, the patient began receiving 1,000 mg of oral mycophenolate mofetil twice daily from POD 0. Excellent urine output of 1.3 L was noted in the first 12 h after transplant, and tacrolimus was initiated on POD 1. Tapering doses of oral prednisone were started on POD 5. The serum creatinine levels declined steadily from 7.9 mg/dL (pre-transplant) to 1.9 mg/dL by POD 5, and the patient did not require dialysis. +However, the hemoglobin trended down to 6.8 g/dL (baseline: 9.8 g/dL), and the platelet count gradually decreased to 61,000/µL (baseline: 302,000/µL) by POD 6. Alarmingly, the patient's creatinine rose to 2.9 mg/dL and then to 3.3 mg/dL in the 24-h period between POD 5 and POD 6. Lactate dehydrogenase was elevated at 1,016 U/L (reference range: 313–618 U/L), and haptoglobin was <10 mg/dL (reference range: 30–200 mg/dL). The corresponding tacrolimus trough level was 5 ng/mL. Renal allograft ultrasound demonstrated mildly heterogeneous echotexture of the transplant kidney, and Doppler evaluation of the intraparenchymal vessels showed resistive indices ranging from 0.80 to 0.83. One unit of apheresis platelets was transfused, and the patient underwent an urgent ultrasound-guided renal allograft biopsy. In the 6 h preceding the biopsy, the patient's recorded urine output was 100 mL. The patient's blood pressure remained stable with a systolic blood pressure of approximately 140 mm Hg throughout the hospitalization leading up to the biopsy. +An adequate biopsy sample consisting of 2 cores of cortical tissue exhibiting 26 glomeruli and 4 interlobular arteries was obtained. No immediate biopsy-related complications occurred. The most prominent finding on light microscopic examination was the demonstration of fibrin thrombi involving 1 arteriole and capillary loops in 2 glomeruli . Isometric cytoplasmic vacuolization of tubular epithelial cells and arteriolar myocytes was also apparent. There was no evidence of microvascular or tubulointerstitial inflammation. C4d was negative by immunofluorescence microscopy. Electron microscopy revealed diffuse swelling of glomerular capillary endothelial cells and cytoplasmic vacuolization of tubular epithelial cells. Histologic correlates of acute AMR were striking in their absence. DSA that were scored positive in the pretransplant serum sample were not detectable in the serum sample tested on the day of the biopsy (HLA B45: pretransplant MFI 3,182 vs. POD 6 MFI 1,438; DQ6: pretransplant MFI 3,082 vs. POD 6 MFI 640). Histopathologic features noted on the renal allograft biopsy, taken together with clinical and laboratory findings, suggested that CNI-induced de novo post-transplant HUS was the most proximate cause of acute oliguric renal failure in this case . +Tacrolimus was discontinued. A reversal of the upward trend in creatinine was immediately apparent after withholding the CNI. Creatinine improved to 2.4, 1.8, and 1 mg/dL in the 3 succeeding days. The patient received a transfusion of 1 unit of packed red blood cells after the kidney biopsy following which hemoglobin improved from 6.8 to 8.6 g/dL and steadily improved to 10.1 g/dL in the following 2 weeks. In the same period, a significant improvement in platelet count occurred (61,000–348,000/µL). Substitution of tacrolimus with another CNI, cyclosporine (CsA), was considered, but we favored the introduction of maintenance immunosuppression with a costimulatory blocker, belatacept, instead, given emerging evidence of its efficacy in highly sensitized renal transplant recipients. The first dose of IV belatacept (5 mg/kg) was administered on POD 9 (3 days after the diagnosis of TMA). The patient received 5 mg/kg of IV belatacept every 2 weeks thereafter for 2 months and was then transitioned to a 5 mg/kg once monthly dosing regimen. Twelve months after transplant, she continues to have excellent renal allograft function with a serum creatinine of 0.7 mg/dL and has had no recurrence of hematologic abnormalities.

His Glasgow Coma Scale was 13/15, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain revealed giant left lateral sphenoid wing meningioma measuring 8 × 7 × 5 cm3 with no encasement of major blood vessels . Preoperative embolization was not feasible. Hence left external carotid artery (ECA) was exposed in the neck and kept occluded. Large fronto-temporal scalp flap was raised after adequate infiltration of local anesthetic with adrenaline, and use of Raney's clips. Large fronto-temporal free bone flap was raised with craniotome and temporal bone rongeured flush with middle cranial fossa. Profuse bleeding of bone edges was controlled with bone wax. Bipolar coagulation of middle meningeal artery and other vessels over the dura was carried out. Dura was opened just around the tumor, and reflected as a flap detaching it from the underlying tumor. The tumor surface was studded with blood vessels. Bipolar coagulation was performed all around the exposed tumor surface thereby devascularizing and shrinking the tumor. Gradually the tumor started to separate from the arachnoid plane and started to bulge in a pulsatile manner . Progressively deeper circumferential dissection carried out with placement of patties protecting the adjacent arachnoid layer. It appeared as if the brain pulsations were gently pushing the tumor out of the dural defect. No retractor or tumor manipulation was used throughout the procedure and finally, the whole tumor was delivered en bloc . The blood loss was around 500 ml, most of which occurred during craniotomy. Patch duraplasty was carried out using pericranium, and layered closure performed. Postoperatively the patient had improved remarkably, contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) showing no residual tumor, and was discharged in good functional status on fourth day . This ‘en bloc’ technique, as elaborated below, has been utilized in a series of seven more large meningiomas (>5 cm) safely with less blood loss. +Patients with meningioma were positioned intraoperatively so that tumor was more superficial than brain. Sufficiently large basal craniotomy was carried out. Meningiomas with suspected encasement of neurovascular structures and significant interposition of brain around the tumor attachment were considered for internal decompression before dissection of tumor capsule. However, meningiomas with no contraindication as above were taken up for surgery with the rule of 4 D's: Devascularization, Diminutive dural opening, Detachment, and either Debulking followed by dissection or Dissection without debulking. After extensive coagulation of dural surface vessels, dural opening was made just at the tumor margin, so that surrounding brain was not exposed. The decision on performing internal decompression was made following early severance of dural attachment. Whenever arachnoid plane appeared favorable, dissection was carried out without debulking, and nearly always the tumor was pushed gradually by the underlying brain pulsations and edema so that the tumor gets delivered en bloc. The main advantages of ‘en bloc’ removal appear to be lesser bleeding and shorter operative time. The limited dural opening cannot be overemphasized to avoid herniation of the edematous brain being pushed out by the tumor. Also if tumor cannot be freed of its attachment in the initial phase of surgery internal debulking becomes unavoidable. +Of the total 35 large meningiomas (>5 cm) operated by us in 2 years, 8 patients had en bloc removal while the rest had initial debulking. The mean blood loss in en bloc removal was around 400 ml, with no patient having new neurological deficit, new onset seizures, or postoperative hematomas. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1879_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1879_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..3c3fdb45919bda80e355b4176f1bf345eb6a7328 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_1879_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 61-year-old African American male with past medical history of hypertension and schizophrenia presented to the emergency room following 2 episodes of syncope. +He reported 3 month history of progressive neck mass.

The patient had mild anemia (hemoglobin, 10.3 g/dL). +A diagnosis of the pulmonary lesion using a bronchoscopic trans-bronchial lung biopsy showed no evidence of malignancy; therefore, a CT-guided percutaneous needle biopsy was performed. The pathological examination showed a non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that was suspected to be a pleomorphic carcinoma. The adrenal lesion was diagnosed as a nonfunctional tumor based on endocrine examinations and adrenal medulla scintigraphy (123I-MIBG). 18-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) showed the accumulation of FDG not only in the left lung nodule (SUVmax, 17.0) but also in the right adrenal one (SUVmax, 4.1) . Together, these results suggested a diagnosis of NSCLC and adrenal metastasis, and the clinical stage was classified as cT2bN0M1b, stage IV (TNM classification 7th edition). +Because there was a risk of rebleeding from adrenal metastasis, we performed a right adrenalectomy. We considered that a complete resection of the primary lung cancer would be possible since the adrenal metastasis was an oligometastasis. A pathological analysis of the lung tumor demonstrated areas of atypical cells with eosinophilic cytoplasms as well as sarcomatous component, with extensive necrosis . Immunohistochemistry revealed that the tumor cells were positive for cytokeratin AE1/3, CAM5.2, CK7, and p63 (partial) but negative for 34βE12, CK20, TTF-1, calretinin, and D2-40. The adrenal tumor was similar in pathologic and immunohistochemical analyses . Thus, the final diagnosis was pleomorphic carcinoma of the lung with an adrenal metastasis, pT2bN0M1b, stage IV (TNM classification 7th edition). +The patient received chemotherapy as stage IV NSCLC (60 mg/m2 of cisplatin on day 1 and 40 mg/m2 of TS-1 twice a day on days 1 to 14, repeated every 4 weeks). After two courses, he decided to quit the intravenous chemotherapy because of adverse events, general malaise, and anorexia. We suggested to receive oral chemotherapy, but he refused to take TS-1 because he feared adverse events. Consequently, he began taking UFT (600 mg/day) and continued this treatment for 2 years. He has survived without any recurrences for 6 years since the surgery. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2072_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2072_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..ac3d5dd4a160e7f0a212e51bb24880fcd030418e --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2072_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 63-year-old female (149 cm, 57 kg) was scheduled for elective laparoscopic distal gastrectomy under general anesthesia for gastric cancer.

Whole-body stiffness worsened, and double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) was performed four times per year to treat the symptoms. +The patient had previously received a surgical arteriovenous shunt in the left forearm, a subcutaneously fixed superficial artery, and an arteriovenous graft in the upper left arm; however, all had occluded within 1 year. Additionally, she had received a thrombectomy of the right femoral vein. As her blood vessels were easily occluded due to frequent vasospasms, a temporary cervical catheter had been used when providing DFPP treatment. The patient orally received tacrolimus (3 mg/day) to suppress the symptoms of Isaacs’ syndrome; dantrolene (150 mg/day), carbamazepine (600 mg/day), and gabapentin (900 mg/day) to relieve the muscle symptoms; dabigatran etexilate methanesulfonate (320 mg/day) as an anticoagulant; cilostazol (150 mg/day) to prevent cerebral infarction; and nicorandil (10 mg/day) as a vasodilator to suppress vasospasms. +The results of preoperative examinations were not remarkable except hemoglobin of 10.8 g/dL. The patient had myokymia of the bilateral upper extremities, neuromyotonia of the bilateral thumb, and left ptosis. We classified her physical status as American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status III. She was admitted to the hospital a month prior to the operation to receive DFPP four times. +When she arrived at the operating room, she was hemodynamically stable and treated with dantrolene (50 mg), carbamazepine (200 mg), gabapentin (300 mg), and nicorandil (5 mg) as premedications. We performed preoperative monitoring, including standard monitoring, neuromuscular monitor (TOF-Watch®), and electroencephalogram using the Bispectral Index monitor. +General anesthesia was induced with 100 μg fentanyl, target-controlled infusion of 2.5 μg/mL propofol, and 50 mg lidocaine after pre-oxygenation with 100% oxygen. After induction, we confirmed that T4/T1 was 100% using the TOF; we then administered 20 mg rocuronium. The time to get a TOF ratio of 0% was 4 min, and endotracheal intubation was carefully performed without complications. Anesthesia was maintained with oxygen, air, propofol (TCI concentration, 2.3 μg/mL), remifentanil (0.15–0.3 μg/kg/min), and intermittent intravenous administration of fentanyl. We also used the minimum amount of muscle relaxant. Rocuronium (10 mg) was administered when the TOF ratio increased to 50%. The total dose of rocuronium was 90 mg. Surgery proceeded uneventfully. For postoperative analgesia, infiltration anesthesia was performed at the rectus sheath with levobupivacaine (0.25%, 20 mL) and an intravenous fentanyl pump (0.5 μg/kg/h) started 1 h before the end of surgery. At the end of the procedure, we confirmed that the TOF ratio had recovered to > 90%. The residual neuromuscular block was antagonized using sugammadex (2 mg/kg), and propofol and remifentanil were discontinued. Shortly afterward, the TOF ratio recovered completely and spontaneous respiration resumed. The patient followed our commands and showed spontaneous breathing, and tracheal extubation was performed. The total operative time was 225 min and the anesthetic duration was 355 min. Subsequent to confirming stable vital signs and neuromuscular symptoms after extubation, the patient was moved to an intensive care unit. +After transfer, she complained about abdominal pain, so the infusion rate of fentanyl was increased to 1.0 μg/kg/h, and dexmedetomidine (0.4 μg/kg/h) was added to control pain. She was discharged to the general ward the day after surgery; however, the abdominal pain worsened because myokymia frequently occurs in the rectus abdominis muscle. The patient complained about severe pain (numerical rating scale, 8/10), so the infusion rate of fentanyl was increased to 2.0 μg/kg/h, which was effective for controlling pain. Afterward, she often experienced vomiting 8 days after surgery. The clinical course seemed to originate from postoperative pyloric stenosis. She received gastric bougie procedures two times after the surgery. The symptoms of Isaacs’ syndrome were stable after the postoperative pain was relieved, and she was discharged on postoperative day 66. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2123_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2123_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..e61001c6cc13f3f6ede857b69c00ddfff9646225 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2123_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 76 year old ‘never smoker’ female with no past medical history was diagnosed with locally advanced NSCLC during investigations for a community-acquired lower respiratory tract infection.

Multiple sub-centimetre lung nodules were noted throughout the right lung. Histological and immunohistochemical assessment of core biopsies from the primary lesion via bronchoscopy favoured the adenocarcinoma subtype of NSCLC (see Table ). The molecular analysis revealed ALK fusion protein overexpression along with ALK rearrangement. This result is in keeping with an ALK rearranged adenocarcinoma. The main lesion had an SUVmax of 16 on 18fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission topography-CT (PET-CT) imaging and no other lesions were avid. Following a review of the imaging at the multidisciplinary meeting (MDM), staging was offered at T2 N0 M0 (TNM 8 ), and in light of the patient’s fitness, radical treatment was recommended. +During the assessment period for a primary lobectomy, the patient developed symptomatic atrial fibrillation. She underwent a successful direct current (DC) cardioversion and was discharged on edoxaban. Three weeks later the patient was noted to be in atrial fibrillation once more during an inpatient admission for the management of chest sepsis, for which she was discharged on digoxin. She was electively admitted to the Cardiology ward 6 weeks later for a second DC cardioversion procedure. Under conscious sedation, the patient received one synchronised shock of 120 J delivered via anterior-posterior paddles ie one placed at the left parasternal edge, one at the corresponding position on the patient’s back. One week post-procedure the patient attended the Emergency Department complaining of dysarthria and left-sided hemiparesis. CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain confirmed the presence of a dense right-sided middle cerebral artery territory infarction (see Fig. ). The patient was in sinus rhythm, transthoracic echocardiography was unremarkable and mild bilateral carotid atheroma only was noted on ultrasonography (< 50% stenosis), suggestive for a stroke secondary to a delayed cardiogenic embolus related to atrial fibrillation, despite anticoagulation. +Five days later, haemorrhagic transformation of the stoke was detected on MRI following clinical deterioration. A 3.5 cm intracerebral haematoma was identified within the right basal ganglia, causing effacement of the right lateral ventricle frontal horn, which was managed conservatively. The clinical condition stabilised and both her speech and weakness improved with rehabilitation from the department of Stroke Medicine. +As the patient’s ECOG PS recovered to 2 and her breathlessness resolved, work-up for radical treatment resumed, given her ongoing determination to gain control over the cancer. Updated cross-sectional imaging demonstrated complete regression of the left upper lobe lesion and a reduction of the previously documented mediastinal lymph node. Remaining atelectasis had a maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) 2.7 on repeat PET-CT imaging (8 months since first PET). A review of the patient’s medications was undertaken searching for possible effects on FDG uptake, which was negative. The merits and risks of radical radiotherapy versus active surveillance were explored with the patient who elected to proceed with the latter. +Clinical review after 6 months of active surveillance, dry cough and mild dyspnoea were reported by the patient. Corresponding with the imaging findings, thoracic imaging with CT showed increased patchy parenchymal changes at the site of the previous left upper lobe lesion without associated hilar or mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Repeat PET-CT imaging demonstrated increased uptake (SUVmax 10.2) in a sub-pleural 4 cm mass in keeping with local relapse (see Fig. ), and no additional sites of disease. +As the pulmonary function tests (FEV1 90% predicted; TLCO 80% predicted) were favourable and physical fitness had stabilised (ECOG PS 2) the patient was consented for a course of radical thoracic radiotherapy without chemotherapy.

Around this time, the first radiological follow-up scan demonstrated radiation pneumonitis focally in left upper lobe. At 1 year the patient returned to ECOG PS 1 and the imaging demonstrated stable disease locally and no evidence of distant relapse. At 18 months post-radiotherapy there was radiologic progression in the lungs with new pulmonary nodules and effusion and new bone metastases correlating with new symptoms of dyspnoea, cough and back pain.

Selective angiogram with the balloon inflated showed no opacification of the fistula and the accurate site of the communication was documented and type I RAVF was confirmed. A 2,6 F microcatheter (Asahi Intecc) was advanced at the venous pouch at the site of the fistula and multiple electrically detachable metallic coils (Optima/OptiMAX/BALT) were simultaneously deployed through the transarterial and transvenous microcatheter into the fistula initially with the balloon inflated . In particular, there were used three coils 18 × 20 mm, one 14 × 47 mm, one 13 × 43 mm, one 12 × 40 mm, two 10 × 30 mm, one 10 × 17 mm and one 10 × 13 mm. Balloon inflation prevents coil migration and protrusion of the coils into the feeding artery. +The final result was total occlusion of the fistula with preservation of feeding artery and the renal parenchyma . +There were no minor or major complications. Patient was discharged the following day in good condition, with the instruction of a new contrast enhanced computed tomography after 6 months. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2242_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2242_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..681c471fae77d84d75ec21efd6035000a1594be5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2242_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +A 31-year-old Japanese woman who presented with upper abdominal pain was admitted to a local hospital.

The morning after admission, her fasting serum glucose, insulin and C-peptide level were within normal ranges: 101 mg/dL, 2.2 μIU/L and 0.8 ng/mL, respectively. At 4 days after admission, she complained of nausea and low back pain, and fell to consciousness disturbance (Japan Coma Scale II-10: drowsiness) with hyperglycemia (861 mg/dL) and metabolic acidosis. She was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis and transferred to our hospital. +This patient’s clinical course in our hospital is presented in Fig. . On admission to our hospital, she showed confusion (Japan Coma Scale I-2) and the upper abdominal symptom of nausea. Laboratory findings showed metabolic acidosis (pH, HCO3, and the anion gap in arterial blood were 7.07, 2.7 mmol/L, and 27.7 mmol/L, respectively), hyperketonemia (serum total ketone bodies 13,179 μmol/L) and hyperglycemia (612 mg/dL). Hemoglobin A1c (5.7%) was within the normal range, and anti-GAD and anti-IA-2 antibodies were undetectable. In addition, neither her serum C-peptide after a glucagon test nor 24-h urinary C-peptide excretion was detectable. These findings met the criteria for FT1D with diabetic ketoacidosis, and the patient was immediately given intravenous insulin infusion therapy. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing indicated DRB1*0401-DQB1*0301, and DRB1*1302-DQB10604 class II gene. +Although serum amylase (1800 U/L, Fig. ), lipase and trypsin (320 U/L and 3040 ng/mL respectively) were elevated, reexamination with CT scanning showed amelioration of the pancreatic swelling and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) imaging depicted no abnormalities, even in the pancreas (data not shown). On the second day in our hospital, her symptoms showed improvement, and the serum glucose level had fallen below 200 mg/dL.

The mother was offered additional confirmatory genetic testing, which she declined. After extensive counseling and discussion of options, which included termination of pregnancy, early induction of labor for provision of comfort care, or continuation of pregnancy to term, the mother opted to continue the pregnancy.

At that time, he had an ulcerative lesion with a reddish and rough surface in the buccal mucosa including the corner of the mouth . The patient was a plasterer, and asbestos exposure was not apparent. He had no relevant medical history, including no history of smoking and alcohol consumption. The lesion was diagnosed as moderately differentiated SCC following a biopsy . Radiological examinations suggested a cancer metastasis in the left submandibular lymph node, and he received chemotherapy with cisplatin (total 110 mg) and 5-fluorouracil (total 2925 mg) via peripheral venous route and concomitant radiotherapy: the primary tumor and neck were irradiated at the dose of 70 Gy, performed in the hospital for 4 months. The treatment resulted in a complete clinical remission of the primary tumor and a complete remission of the neck lesion, which was pathologically confirmed as metastasis composed of nonviable SCC cells (data not shown). No recurrence was detected in subsequent years; however, he developed mandibular osteonecrosis 6 years after chemoradiotherapy and was treated with oral roxithromycin. +On examination at the age of 69 years, his vital signs were within normal ranges. He developed Parkinson’s disease a year before this consultation, and the disease was well controlled with oral levodopa (300 mg/day) and benserazide hydrochloride (85.5 mg/day). He showed trismus; however, he had no other abnormal physical and neurological findings. On intraoral inspection, a polypoid mass measuring 10 mm in diameter was found in the left molar region of the lower gingiva . Its surface was rough and covered by a whitish pseudomembrane. Panoramic radiography showed bone resorption, exhibiting a moth-eaten appearance that involved the base of the mandible . Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a soft-tissue mass lesion accompanied by extensive bone resorption of the mandible . +A malignant tumor was suspected, and a biopsy specimen from the polypoid lesion was obtained. The polypoid mass was composed mainly of loose granulation tissue , where atypical spindle or pleomorphic cells were scattered in the fibrin-rich edematous or pale stroma together with neutrophils, lymphocytes, and capillary endothelial cells . The surface of the lesion was mostly ulcerated but partially covered by squamous epithelium with no obvious atypia; only slight nuclear enlargement and disordered basal cell polarity were noted . In the subepithelial tissue, atypical spindle cells were arranged haphazardly and exhibited large, basophilic cytoplasm and bizarre nuclei . Some of them exhibited mitotic figures, some of which were atypical . Neutrophils were frequently incorporated within their cytoplasm , some of which appeared to be degraded with missing nuclei . +Immunohistochemistry revealed that atypical spindle cells were positive for vimentin and α-smooth muscle actin , but not for pan-cytokeratin . No epithelial markers other than p63 were detected . The spindle cells were partially positive for p63 , and most were positive for p53 . Ki-67 staining was observed in approximately half of the cells (data not shown). Furthermore, granular CD68 staining was observed in the cytoplasm . These findings were highly suggestive of a malignancy, and SCSCC and post-irradiation sarcoma were considered in the differential diagnosis, given that the patient had a history of chemoradiotherapy for treating SCC of the buccal mucosa 15 years before. +Although the final diagnosis had not been determined, the patient was admitted to our hospital for surgery. On admission, his height and body weight were 145 cm and 45.7 kg, respectively, and vital signs were within normal range (blood pressure 127/79 mmHg, pulse 68 beats/minute, and body temperature 36.0 °C). Complete blood count showed mild anemia (red blood cells 4.07 × 1012/L, hemoglobin 128 g/L, hematocrit 36.0%, mean corpuscular volume 90.4 fL, mean corpuscular hemoglobin 31.4 pg, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration 348 g/L, white blood cells 5.49 × 109/L, and platelets 130 × 109/L). The biochemical test results of blood and urine were within normal ranges with the exception of a mild elevation in C-reactive protein (8.7 mg/L), which was presumably caused by the gingival tumor. He underwent hemimandibulectomy pursuant to a clinical diagnosis of a malignant tumor. The postoperative course was uneventful. +The hemimandibulectomy specimen had a protruding tumor that exhibited an ulcerated surface and that measured 23 × 15 mm from the gingiva to buccal mucosa . The location of this tumor was not the same site of the previous tumor. On the cut surface, there was a whitish and solid lesion invading the mandibular bone . Histologically, most of the lesion was composed of conventional SCC, measured 45 × 25 × 15 mm in size, and invaded the mandibular bone extensively . The spindle cells were distributed near the SCC foci, mostly in the remaining polypoid segment . Because the atypical spindle cells were concomitant with the conventional SCC component, we finally diagnosed the lesion as SCSCC. The tumorous spindle cells frequently contained neutrophils within the cytoplasmic vacuoles , forming cell-in-cell figures. Such figures were much rarer in the conventional SCC cells. Intense staining for lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) and cathepsin B, which are both lysosomal markers, were observed around the vacuoles containing the neutrophils . This suggested that such cell-in-cell figures may result from the phagocytosis of neutrophils rather than from emperipolesis.

(See , and ) The dystonic-like episodes were spontaneous or triggered by everyday activities such as talking, chewing, and yawning. The severity of these motor contractions tended to be exacerbated by emotional stress and nervousness produced by these uncontrollable movements. During these episodes, some typical features of oromandibular dystonia were noticed, such as some sensory tricks (gentle pressure on the inferior incisors would milden the jaw-deviating dystonia as the placement of a tongue depressor between the molars for jaw-closing dystonia), and phenomena (e.g., oromandibular dystonia overflowing the right eyelid, resulting in right blepharospasm). +A video examination protocol suggested by Yoshida was carried out to assess the type and magnitude of involuntary movements . In addition, a complete haematological and biochemical blood examination was required and all the parameters were within normal range.

The authors, in agreement with her treating physician, suggested performing a slow taper until complete discontinuation of Trazodone was achieved. +A progressive dose reduction of 25 mg of Trazodone was scheduled every two weeks. In the meantime, an inferior occlusal splint was prescribed, considering that mild contact in the inferior incisor tended to ease the intensity of the dystonic-like movements. +During the progressive discontinuation of Trazodone, the authors noticed an immediate attenuation of the dystonic symptoms.

In 2020, her ECG showed complete left bundle branch block (LBBB), and in January 2021 the patient experienced dizziness with no apparent cardiac cause. In October 2021, the patient was seen in the outpatient clinic because of dizziness and shortness of breath. ECG and Holter monitoring revealed a 2:1 AV-block, high-degree AV-block, and complete AV-block. A trans-thoracic echo showed normal cardiac function, except for the abnormal septal movement typically seen in LBBB. Subsequently, the patient was referred to our center for brady-pacing and due to the prospect of chronic RV pacing, she was accepted for CSP. +Upon admission for CSP implantation in October 2021, the patient had complete AV-block with a ventricular escape rhythm of 33 beats per minute. The CSP implantation was successfully performed under local anesthesia with the device placement location being subcutaneous and left-sided. The right atrial lead was successfully positioned within the right atrial appendage. Consistent with the 2021 ESC pacing and CRT guidelines (Class IIa recommendation), the operator proceeded to insert an RV backup lead at the RV apex in the context of His-pacing. +Thereafter, a ventriculogram was performed to visualize the His-region for CSP lead placement (Medtronic SelectSecure Model 3830 lumen less lead, Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN). His capture could be achieved at several sites, but pacing at high output only resulted in partial correction of the LBBB. After three unsuccessful attempts to correct the LBBB completely at the His, the decision was made to proceed with conversion to the LBBA. The CSP lead was then placed in the ventricular septum until sufficient (non-selective) LBBA pacing was achieved, with satisfying sense and threshold values. During pacing, specific observations were made; a modest R’ in V1 and a stimulus to LV activation time of less than 80ms. The inter-peak time measured was 24ms (interval between peak R-wave in V6 and R’ in V1) . Achievement of more selective LV capture was hindered by the challenge of reaching deeper into the septum. Following lead implantation, a fluoroscopic image revealed the fulcrum sign, demonstrating the placement of the CSP lead tip within the RV septal wall . Finally, a cardiac resynchronization therapy pulse generator (Medtronic Solara CRT-P, Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN) with the CSP lead connected to the LV port was implanted subcutaneously. The LBBA pacing threshold at implant was 0.5 V and the pacing settings were eventually programmed to 2.5 V/0.4ms for the LBBA lead. +The day after the procedure, a chest X-ray confirmed the lead position and a threshold test was performed to ensure stable pacing values . Two months after implant, during the routine device checkup, it was discovered that the LBBA pacing threshold had increased slightly to 1.25 V. +During the routine device follow-up at one year, it was observed that the LBBA pacing threshold had risen to 3 V, which was above the pacing output of 2.5 V. Consequently, the patient was receiving RV only pacing from the backup lead . Attempts to increase the output led to pocket stimulation, prompting a change in the pacing configuration to LVtip – RVring at 4 V/0.7ms. Subsequent follow-up two months later revealed an even higher LBBA pacing threshold. At increased pacing output, anodal capture at the lead ring was observed, and battery life expectancy decreased drastically. As a result, RV pacing was established as the default mode, and LBBA pacing was deactivated. +Subsequently, a CMR scan (1.5T scanner, Sola, Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany) was performed to investigate the possible cause of the increasing LBBA pacing threshold. To ensure safety during the procedure, the device was programmed in the MR safe mode. The following imaging techniques were applied: cine imaging, T1 and T2 mapping, and wideband late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging (to reduce cardiac implantable electronic device–induced artefacts) as presented in Fig. . The cine imaging showed a normal LVEF of 58% and normal cardiac dimensions. Proximal LV septum thickening (14 mm) was present with hypokinesia in the same area. T1 mapping demonstrated focal high T1 values in the proximal LV septum of 1263 ± 51ms (site-specific normal myocardial T1 values: 950–1050ms) indicative of myocardial fibrosis, edema or infiltration. On T2 maps, a slightly increased T2 value was present in the same area (54.6 ± 2.7ms) as compared to the site-specific normal myocardial T2 values (42–50ms), compatible with focal edema/inflammation. LGE images revealed non-ischemic patchy mid-myocardial high signal intensity in the same proximal LV septum, suggestive of focal fibrosis. Fibrosis was not limited to the insertion point of the CSP lead tip; instead, it extended in both the basal-apical and inferoseptal-inferolateral directions. The combination of findings, including basal septal thickening with mid-myocardial focal LGE and evidence of inflammation with concomitant diffuse myocardial edema is suggestive of cardiac sarcoidosis. Therefore, further lab tests and a PET-CT scan were performed. Lab results showed an increased serum angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and normal soluble Interleukin2-receptor antagonist levels. PET-CT findings did not support the diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis (no lymphadenopathy or avid lymph nodes within the imaged region) or the presence of active myocarditis. Alternative causes for basal septal thickening with mid-wall focal LGE could be an infiltrative cardiomyopathy, systemic disease, or a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2503_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2503_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..5a4378b879210fc1ddef804513533a26cb3e8242 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2503_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +A 53-year-old previously healthy woman was diagnosed with a calvarial lesion on a brain checkup and was referred to the hospital.

It was a lobular mass 11 × 14 × 12 mm, presented isointensity on T1- and hyperintensity on T2-weighted sequences, and was inhomogeneously enhanced with intense enhancement of the surrounding dura mater. The inner table and dura underlying the tumor appeared intact. There was no identifiable peritumoral brain edema . On computed tomography (CT), the tumor was accompanied by a well-demarcated calvarial erosion at the site of the tumor, extending more predominantly into the inner side compared to the outer side. In addition, sclerotic changes were observed in the surrounding bone . The patient was requested to undergo a tumor resection. Intraoperatively, the tumor was reflected with the surrounding bone that presented sclerotic changes and removed en bloc. The inner table compressed by the tumor was partially defective and the underlying dura mater was erosive, which was circumferentially resected and replaced by an artificial substitute . Eventually, a Simpson Grade I resection was achieved. Adhesions between the tumor and surrounding dura mater were not found in the intact underlying cerebral cortex. Microscopically, the tumor comprised cells with oval-shaped nuclei and intervening vasculature of varying sizes. There were a few mitotic figures.

The patient had been experiencing right lower quadrant abdominal pain for almost three years, but she had ignored the symptoms until the abdominal pain intensified with a radiating ache in the waist. During physical examination, a large, fixed mass with a diameter of 10 cm could be felt in the right upper abdomen without obvious haphalgesia. The patient presented with normal blood pressure and no swelling in either lower extremity. General laboratory work-up results were within normal limits (Blood routine test: white blood cells, 7,000/L, hemoglobin, 11.1 g/dl; serum creatinine, 0.48 mg/dl; urine routine test: white blood cells: 9.9/µl, red blood cells:19.40/µl; neurone specific enolase: 50.20 ng/ml). The tumor was further diagnosed by following imaging studies, including computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), which were performed to investigate the abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced CT scans revealed a large (7.8 cm * 5.5 cm * 5.0 cm) irregular hypodense retroperitoneal mass with heterogeneous enhancement and invasion of the IVC, and the right ureter was compressed with proximal ureteral dilatation and hydrops . EUS revealed a hypoechoic mass outside the distal wall of the descending duodenum. EUS-guided biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of a mesenchymal tumor with low malignancy potential. Dimensional CT of the IVC was performed to investigate the relationship between the tumor and the vessel. CT revealed that the IVC was encircled by the tumor with moderate invasion . To further investigate whether the left and right renal veins had been invaded by the tumor, IVC angiography was suggested, revealing that the IVC was compressed and narrowed . The right renal vein presented with normal imaging findings and no tumor invasion. Due to the lack of essential tools, left renal vein angiography was not performed successfully. To prevent pulmonary embolism resulting from the abscission of the tumor during the operation, an IVC filter was placed prior to the surgery. According to preoperative imaging, the right kidney needed to be resected due to invasion by the tumor. Preoperative emission tomographic imaging of the kidneys indicated that the left glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was 49.8 ml/min, the right GFR was 34.8 ml/min, and the total GFR was 84.6 ml/min. Given that the retroperitoneal tumor with the IVC and adjacent viscera was resectable en bloc, the patient underwent surgical resection. +During the operation, we found that a 6 cm segment of the IVC, the right kidney with ureter, the descending duodenum seromuscular layer and the origin of the left renal vein had been invaded by the tumor , therefore, the tumor was resected en bloc with the IVC (from the suprarenal to infrarenal segment), the right kidney with ureter, and the duodenum seromuscular layer. As the left renal vein was involved, it was ligated and resected to the proximal part of the left renal vein ahead of the genital vein drainage point. IVC reconstruction was performed with the interposition of a 20 mm diameter polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) prosthesis . The proximal and distal IVCs were occluded for 70 min during the operation.There was a high risk of renal insufficiency after surgery for this patient, since a single left kidney without a left vein can not provide sufficient function. After checking the specimen from the right kidney, we found that the right renal vein was not involved. Therefore, we used the resected right vein as a bridge between the reconstructed IVC and the left renal vein. After the right renal vein was trimmed, it was anastomosed between the left renal vein and the reconstructed IVC . When the vascular occlusion was lifted, left renal vein blood smoothly flowed through the interposed right vein. showed the resection of tumor carrying the kidney with ureter. Since the procedure is a little complicated, showed the drawing of the procedure to visually describe the operation steps. The patient had an uneventful recovery process with normal renal function (serum creatinine 0.71 mg/dl) after the operation, and urine routine test showed normal number of white blood cells (2.5/µl). However, follow-up CT indicated that the left vein was blocked two weeks after the operation, her renal function is still normal(serum creatinine 0.81 mg/dl). Pathological examination verified the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma. The patient was discharged two weeks after the operation. She continues well with normal renal function (serum creatinine 0.89 mg/dl) and has no evidence of disease eight months after surgery. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2537_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2537_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f2325ca542ec12fc9dc8d7b6d73ddd872552b741 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2537_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +A 53-year-old woman presented with bilateral visual loss.

An arginine growth hormone-releasing hormone test confirmed growth hormone (GH) deficiency, and after further laboratory analysis, a central hypothyroidism and hypercortisolism was diagnosed. Substitutional therapy with levothyroxine and hydrocortisone was initiated, which improved the patient’s headache and fatigue. Ophthalmologic examination revealed bitemporal hemianopia. Further work-up with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a 3 × 3 × 2.5 cm cystic space-occupying lesion in the sellar and suprasellar compartment with compression of the optic chiasm, with partial calcifications in computed tomography (CT), highly suspicious of a craniopharyngioma (CP) . Hydrocephalus was not present at the time of presentation. Due to the compression of the chiasm causing clinical hemianopia, the indication for surgical decompression was given. We weighed the possibilities of a neuroendoscopic transventricular (NET) cyst fenestration and partial tumor resection versus an endonasal endoscopic approach (EEA) or an open transcranial approach. The advantage for the transventricular neuroendoscopic approach is its minimal-invasive nature and straight-forward decompression of the cyst, which is causing compression of the optic chiasm. However, the patient presented with very small ventricles, making neuroendoscopy cumbersome, and the neuroendoscopic approach would only allow a partial tumor resection. EEA shares the advantage of being minimal-invasive. However, due to her age and the concomitant diagnosis of CF, known to be associated with hypoplasia and markedly reduced pneumatization of the paranasal sinuses, a non-pneumatized (conchal type) sphenoid was present , making the AAE more challenging . In addition, gross total resection (GTR) was not considered achievable through an EEA, due to a supra-chiasmatic tumor extension. Still, both an NET or EEA seemed superior to an open approach (e.g. subfrontal or interhemispheric) given the invasiveness and associated morbidity of such approaches, while similar to the EEA and NET approach, GTR would most probably not be achieved either [–]. We ultimately decided to perform an EEA together with our colleagues from ENT. The conchal configuration of the sphenoid sinus required meticulous drilling of squamous intrasphenoidal bone, exposure of the harder sellar bone, and a superior trans-chiasmatic sulcus extension to achieve satisfactory exposure of the suprasellar tumor cyst . Intraoperatively, crystals and cystic fluid, suspicious of CP, were drained from the cyst, and the cyst was dissected from the cavernous sinus walls, the sellar diaphragm, and the dorsum sellae without risking injury of adjacent structures. At the end of the operation, a symmetrical diaphragmal descent was achieved as indirect sign for the decompression of the optic chiasm . Postoperative MRI showed the expected near total tumor removal. While the cyst was completely drained, tumor remnants extending posteriorly to the superiorly displaced chiasm remained as expected . Postoperatively, the patient developed diabetes insipidus (DI) for which she received desmopressin under the supervision of the pediatric endocrinologists. During her inpatient stay, she recovered from her DI with stable sodium levels but required vasopressin substitution. Overall recovery was good, while the hemianopia persisted. No signs of rhinorrhea resulting from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistula were noted. We were able to discharge the patient to her home 11 days after surgery. Unexpectedly, the histopathologic analysis found conspicuous areas of skin with formation of hairs and squamous epithelia, compatible with a mature teratoma . The cytokeratin staining was positive for epithelial cells consistent with the finding in a mature teratoma . These findings led to the diagnosis of a rare case of infantile mature teratoma originating from the sellar region After discussion in our interdisciplinary pediatric neuro-tumor-board, no further treatments (e.g. chemotherapy, radiation therapy) were indicated and a clinical and radiological follow up was initiated. +At her first postoperative follow-up appointment after 6 weeks the patient was back in school, without any complaints.

Enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed a left retroperitoneal hematoma and a large, ruptured Crawford type IV TAAA. The aneurysm was 80 mm in diameter. Furthermore, a tear in the left renal artery resulted from a ruptured aneurysm in the anterior wall . The CT showed a heavily calcified visceral and infrarenal aorta, and the aneurysm was localized to the visceral segment, suggesting a mycotic penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer. The patient had not taken antibiotics. The preoperative evaluation revealed renal dysfunction (serum creatine, 1.21 mg/dL; estimated glomerular filtration rate, 46 mL/min) and no other comorbidities. +The patient’s level of consciousness suddenly deteriorated and his systolic blood pressure fell to 50 mmHg. Therefore, we performed endotracheal intubation and rushed the patient to the operating room. We chose open emergency surgery owing to uncontrollable hemorrhage, and we initially considered graft placement. A left thoracoabdominal incision is the standard approach; however, the patient’s hemodynamic status was exceedingly unstable. We expected this procedure, including arranging the operative position, to require more time than median laparotomy. Controlling the hemorrhage and stabilizing vital signs were of primary importance. +The patient was brought to a hybrid operating room and an occlusion balloon was inserted from the right femoral artery through the abdominal aorta under the diaphragmatic level. A median abdominal incision was made and intra-abdominal bleeding was observed. Even with balloon occlusion, bleeding was difficult to control and the surgical field was difficult to secure. Heparin was not administered. During dissection of the anterior wall of the aneurysm, bleeding was observed from the perforation, and without manual hemostasis, the patient’s blood pressure decreased to an undetectable level. The position of the central balloon occlusion was guided just above the aneurysm, and the rupture tear site was closed using 7 needles with 4 − 0 nonabsorbable monofilament, reinforced by pledget stitches (Bard polytetrafluoroethylene) to secure the operative field. This allowed the release of balloon occlusion, and the systolic blood pressure increased to 80 mmHg. Dissecting the proximal site of the aneurysm was impossible owing to the likelihood of hemorrhage. We considered open and patch closure of the aneurysm rupture site under balloon occlusion; however, considering the difficulty of maintaining an operative field and the risk of occluding the left renal artery, we elected to close the perforation site only and instead perform a 2-stage graft replacement after life salvage . Intraoperative findings revealed no evidence of infectious aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm. +Because the aneurysm remained after the first surgery, the patient’s blood pressure was strictly controlled using medication. He remained hospitalized until the second surgery, ensuring urgent treatment if the aneurysm ruptured in the interim. Hemoglobin level and hematocrit were frequently measured (more than 3 days per week) and the TAAA was evaluated by CT once weekly. Stabilization of the patient’s condition required a full month, and the second surgery was then performed. He had no cardiac dysfunction (ejection fraction: 84%) or coronary artery disease according to the preoperative examination. +Under general anesthesia, the patient was placed in the left lateral position and a spiral skin incision was made. The aneurysm was approached by a left lateral thoracotomy through the seventh intercostal space, a diaphragm incision, and a pararectal approach. Severe adhesions were observed along the descending aorta from the celiac artery to the terminal abdominal aorta. A partial cardiopulmonary bypass was established by cannulation of the left femoral artery and vein. The descending aorta was cross-clamped under the diaphragm proximally and the left common iliac artery was controlled distally. The aneurysm was opened and the terminal aorta was clamped using an occlusion balloon. The thoracoabdominal aorta was replaced with the abdominal aorta under the celiac trunk immediately proximal to the aortic bifurcation. The superior mesenteric artery and the bilateral renal arteries were reconstructed with the interposition of a Carrel patch from small graft branches (24-mm Gelweave Coselli Thoracoabdominal Graft; Terumo Medical Corporation, Tokyo, Japan). +Weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass and postoperative recovery were uneventful.

Physical examination revealed multiple hyperpigmented macules on her lips, buccal mucosa, fingertips, and toes . She was diagnosed with mild anemia at 10 years of age; genetic screening for thalassemia reported no abnormalities. At 15, she underwent a laparotomy to treat an “intestinal obstruction.” Since the age of 21 years, she has experienced a prolonged menstrual period (50–60 days) and hypermenorrhea, accompanied by a clean and odorless vaginal discharge. The US examination showed an enlarged cervix with multicystic lesions, the largest of which measured 1.9 cm×3.4 cm×2.2 cm. The patient has since experienced occasional hematochezia and was referred to several medical institutions to treat abnormal uterine bleeding. At 23 years of age, she underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy, revealing chronic non-atrophic gastritis and multiple polyps in the stomach, duodenum, and rectum. The pathological diagnosis of the resected polyp specimen from the mid-ileum revealed chronic active inflammation involving the superficial mucosa . During this period, the medical imaging examination revealed a growing cervical mass. Serum gynecological tumor markers, including alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen (CA) 199 (CA199), CA153, and CA125, were within normal levels. The human papillomavirus screening test results for cervical secretions were negative. The patient’s father and younger brothers had similar black mucocutaneous macules, and her grandfather died of gastrointestinal bleeding. Except for her father, who was also diagnosed with leukoderma, the patient and her family denied the presence of other familial diseases. +After admission to the inpatient department, the patient underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and multimodal US . Transrectal US revealed an enlarged, barrel-shaped cervix (6.4 cm×5.7 cm×6.0 cm) containing multilocular lesions of various sizes comprising a few solid components. The cervical lesions occupied almost the entire cervix, with the upper rim reaching the internal cervical os and the lower rim 0.7 cm above the external cervical os. No cervical myometrial echo was found. Some solid components were found in the septae between neighboring cysts, which altogether measure 4.0 cm×3.0 cm×3.3 cm; the cystic-solid echoes were encompassed by relatively larger cystic echoes. The cystic echoes, with diameters of 0.1–1.0 cm, were honeycomb-shaped with a slightly higher solid echo. The solid echo and septae showed strip-like rich blood flow signals with an arterial spectrum resistive index of 0.57. The cervical canal had a 0.4 cm separation, making the line of the cervical mucosa invisible. No abnormal echoes were observed in the anterior or posterior vaginal fornix or in the endometrium and myometrium of the uterus. No space-occupying lesions were observed in the uterine parametrium. An anechoic cyst, measuring 3.4 cm×2.3 cm×2.8 cm, was found in the left ovary. The ovarian cyst had a thin wall and was surrounded by a few short, strip-like blood flow signals. No lesions were observed in the right adnexa. The three-dimensional reconstructed view using 3D realisticVue (W10 EV3-10B, Samsung Medical, Seoul, South Korea) displayed multilocular lesions resembling the “cosmos pattern” in MRI examination, nearly occupying the whole cervix . Three-dimensional power Doppler US revealed an increased blood supply with irregular ramifications, parts of which multiplied and formed clump-like patterns. Three-dimensional tomographic US imaging of the blood flow of the cervical lesion indicated that its blood supply was located in the intercyst septae and solid components. The blood flow histograms revealed the following results: vascularization index, 4.567; flow index, 35.374; vascularization-flow index (VFI), 1.615. Using the VOCAL software (Voluson TM E10 BT19, General Electric Company, Boston, Massachusetts, the United States), the volume of the mass measured was 80.65 cm.3 Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) (PHILIPS EPIQ7, Philips Healthcare, Seattle, WA, the United States) using intravenous SonoVue (Bracco, Milan, Italia) revealed that solid components of the cervical mixed echo begun to develop at 7 s and peaked at 22.14 s, which gradually faded and presented a slightly increased signal in the final stage, exhibiting a “quick-up and slow-down” pattern of the time-intensity curve. CEUS also displayed a local density random walk wash-in/wash-out curve type with a wash-in slope of 1.62 dB/s, peak intensity of 19.03 dB, time from peak to 1/2 of 39.67 s, and mean transit time of 26.63 s. The cervical serous layer displayed continuous echoes of the signal, which did not increase simultaneously with the solid components of the cervical masses. The MRI revealed an enlarged cervix with multilocular space-occupying lesions of various sizes involving the entire muscular layer. +Subsequently, a hysteroscopic biopsy revealed multiple polyp-like neoplasms in the uterine cavity and multilocular lesions in the cervix . Pathological examination of the biopsy specimen revealed LEGH and aLEGH. Whole-exome and Sanger sequencing confirmed the STK11 gene mutation in the patient and her family . +Based on the evidence mentioned above, the patient was diagnosed with PJS and recommended undergoing laparoscopic exploration and cervicectomy according to clinical guidelines [, ]. The lesion-penetrated parts of the lower uterus, cervix, and ovarian cyst were resected and subjected to pathological examinations, revealing that the cervix and lower part of the uterus were both invaded by glandular lesions . Immunohistochemistry revealed Polyclonal Antibody to Mucin 6 (MUC6)-positivity. Simple gastric metaplasia (SGM) and LEGH in the cervix were also documented, suggesting the presence of gastric-type glandular epithelium. Alcian-blue/Periodic acid Schiff reagent (AB/PAS) staining revealed the presence of neutral mucus in the gastric-type cells. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2645_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2645_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..0018a066a9803b6b161cefbac96376d39a2eca70 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_2645_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1 @@ +The patient was a 40-year-old female, gravida 6, para 1, with a history of cesarean section.

The largest leiomyoma in the posterior wall measured approximately 3.5 × 4.0 × 2.7 cm . On September 3, 2019, the ultrasound results confirmed an early intrauterine pregnancy. Multiple medium-to-low echogenicity lesions were observed in the myometrium, including a larger one in the posterior wall measuring approximately 5.5 × 3.5 cm. A cesarean section was performed on April 1, 2020 (36 + 4 weeks of gestation) due to premature rupture of membranes and a history of previous cesarean section.

The time taken between injury and evacuation was less than 60 min; thus, the principle of the “golden hour” was achieved. +To receive basic surgical aid, the patient was transported to the Military Medical Hospital #66 at Pokrovsk of the Donetsk oblast. At this level, the patient was diagnosed with having a penetrating thoracic wound. The blood loss was approximately 1500 ml, indicating hemorrhagic shock.

Taking into consideration the absence of an exit wound, it was not possible to be sure about the path of the wound channel; therefore, penetrating thoraco-abdominal injury was suspected and laparocentesis was performed. A hemorrhagic content was received at the laparocentesis; thus, laparotomy was performed. At the revision of the abdominal cavity, we detected a rapture of the right dome of the diaphragm as well as the ruptures of 3–6 segments (S3–6) of the liver. The entrance wound was detected only in chest area, whereas the exit wound was not identified neither in chest, nor in abdomen wall. Therefore, a conclusion was made that damage of the liver was in result of “hydrodynamic shock”. Considering the severity of the patient, minimal surgical treatment was applied, which included suturing of liver ruptures as well as excision of necrotic tissues and suturing of gunshot wounds of limbs. However, in an early post-operative period, a hemorrhage and bile were detected on drainage. Relaparotomy was performed and liver damage within the area of gallbladder fossa was detected. Given the doubts about the viability of the liver S3–6, the question was whether or not liver resection should be applied for possibly ischemic segments. However, the severity of the patient and principles of DC tactic were taken into consideration. Thus, cholecystectomy was performed to get access to damaged liver in the area of gallbladder fossa (coagulation and suturing), and patch of omentum was used to fill the gap in injured S3–6 of liver . +For further treatment, the patient was transported to the Mechnikov Regional Clinical Hospital in Dnipro, where further resuscitation was continued.

In order to eliminate biliary hypertension (sixth day after the combat injury), the following intervention was performed: endoscopic papillosphincterotomy, endoscopic retrograde cholecystopancreatography, and stenting of the common bile duct. To provide enteral nutrition, the feeding tube was placed behind the Treitz ligament. Implementation of endoscopic decompression of the bile duct had resulted in gradual reduction of bile volume from the subhepatic drainage from up to 50 ml per day as compared to 300 ml before the decompression. +At post-operative period, a computed tomography (CT) scan of the abdomen was performed. At CT analyses showed the liver to demonstrate zones with ischemic lesions . Considering liver CT data, a liver resection of the affected segment was planned to prevent further necrosis and abscess formation according to DC tactic. However, on the 16th day after the injury, intra-abdominal bleeding was diagnosed and urgent laparotomy was performed. At revision, erosion of the right hepatic artery was detected as a result of the chronic inflammation of the artery wall and continuous contact to the bile. Erosive defect was sutured and stable hemostasis was achieved . At revision of sutured areas of the liver, we found it to be covered with fibrin, partial failure of sutures and bile leakage were observed. Furthermore, tissue softening and color changes of liver S5–6 parenchyma were detected, indicating ischemic failure . In order to stop bile leakage and to prevent liver failure, a decision was made to perform anatomic resection of the liver S5–6 .

This was a classical splicing variant, which may lead to loss of amino acids but might not destroy the reading frame. The heterozygous frameshift variant c.393del (p.C132Afs*3) of the PMFBP1 gene caused the replacement of cysteine by alanine at position 132, followed by a frameshift and a premature stop codon, resulting in the early termination of protein coding.

Although he achieved an appropriate hematologic response within 3 months of imatinib treatment, on 21 March 2017 he demonstrated a suboptimal molecular response with a BCR-ABL/ABL ratio of 17%. Subsequently, he was switched to 300 mg orally administered nilotinib (a second-generation TKI) twice daily. After 3 months of nilotinib treatment, the BCR-ABL/ABL ratio dropped to 0.093%. +To screen for hepatocellular carcinoma, an abdominal CT scan was done in March 2017 and it revealed multiple hypoechoic liver lesions .

Compared to baseline values prior to hospitalization (serum creatinine: 139μmol/L, estimated glomerular filtration rate +: 43.2μmol/L/1.73m2), serum creatinine was elevated on admission (Table ). Glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (0.64), gamma-glutamyltransferase (2.46), and international normalized ratio (1.13) were slightly elevated; serum albumin (31g/L) was decreased. Other laboratory values including inflammation parameters (leukocyte count, C-reactive protein), total serum protein, bilirubin, glutamate-pyruvate transaminase, and alkaline phosphatase were within normal range. Partial respiratory insufficiency and metabolic acidosis (pH: 7.326, oxygen partial pressure: 55.8mmHg, carbon dioxide partial pressure: 29.0mmHg, bicarbonate: 14.7mmol/L, base excess: -9.7) were found on admission.

Physical examination showed no abnormalities other than a regular tachycardia at 190 b.p.m., and blood pressure was 137/78 mmHg. The ECG on presentation in the emergency ward is presented in . +The ECG on presentation showed a regular narrow QRS tachycardia with a ventricular rate of 192 b.p.m. The presence of a retrograde p-wave in or at the end of the QRS-complex is the hallmark of typical slow/fast AVNRT. Other tachycardias that should be considered in the differential diagnosis are orthodromic atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT) over an accessory pathway, focal atrial tachycardia, and atrial flutter. In orthodromic AVRT, the retrograde p-waves are typically identified later (80–120 ms) after the end of the QRS-complex as the atria are only activated retrogradely over the accessory pathway after the ventricular myocardium has been depolarized. In focal atrial tachycardia, the p-waves are not retrograde and typically present not after, but just before the QRS-complex, with a PR-interval depending on antegrade conduction properties. In atrial flutter, flutter waves with a typical sawtooth pattern can be regarded as the main hallmark of common clockwise isthmus-dependent atrial flutter. +When confronted with patients with haemodynamically stable narrow QRS tachycardia, vagal manoeuvres can be used as a first-line attempt to achieve reconversion to sinus rhythm. In patients with AVNRT and AVRT, carotid sinus massage and Valsalva manoeuvres are often used successfully to terminate the tachycardia by slowing conduction over the atrioventricular (AV) node, which is a critical part of the circuit. +In 2015, it was shown that the modified Valsalva manoeuvre, combining Valsalva with a postural modification (leg elevation and supine positioning at the end), was more efficient in terminating episodes of supraventricular tachycardia than the standard Valsalva manoeuvre (43% vs. 17% restoration of sinus rhythm, P < 0.0001). Therefore, this method is currently recommended as a first-line over other vagal manoeuvres to achieve sinus rhythm in the acute phase. +When vagal manoeuvres fail to restore sinus rhythm, intravenous adenosine can be administered as second-line therapy. Although adenosine blocks AV nodal conduction and therefore is mainly used to terminate AVNRT and AVRT, it may also terminate some forms of focal atrial tachycardia that are based on triggered activity. When adenosine fails to terminate AVNRT, or when there is rapid recurrence after cardioversion, intravenous administration of calcium channel blockers (verapamil/diltiazem) or beta-blockers may be used to restore sinus rhythm. +In patients with recurrent symptomatic episodes of AVNRT, there is a good and clear indication for catheter ablation, which can be performed with a high success rate (97%) and a very low risk of complications. By avoiding ablation in the mid-septal area and the roof of the coronary sinus, targeting the inferior nodal extensions of the AV node for ablation, the risk of periprocedural AV block can be reduced to a minimum. Special consideration should be given to older patients with a baseline first-degree atrioventricular block, as the risk of iatrogenic AV block after ablation has been reported to be considerably higher in this group. +Our patient consented to an ablation procedure which was performed under general anaesthesia with propofol and mechanical ventilation, as is the standard in our centre.

The procedure was performed under X-ray fluoroscopic guidance without the use of a three-dimensional (3D) mapping system, as is usually the case for such procedures. With incremental atrial pacing, a clear jump from antegrade conduction over the fast pathway to the slow pathway was observed, with initiation of typical slow/fast AVNRT, as represented by the intracardiac recordings in . +Ablation was then performed in the slow pathway region, corresponding to the rightward inferior extension of the AV node. Before ablation, a 3D reconstruction of right atrial anatomy was performed using 3D rotational angiography, as part of a study protocol on the anatomical evaluation of Koch’s triangle in patients with AVNRT. A oesophageal temperature probe was used as part of this study protocol to improve image integration accuracy; not to monitor temperature as there is no oesophageal temperature rise during ablation in the slow pathway region. Using dedicated software, the position of the ablation catheter could be projected on the 3D model during ablation, demonstrating the site of successful slow pathway ablation . +During ablation in this region, accelerated nodal rhythm occurred indicating heating of the rightward inferior nodal extension, as is typically seen during successful radiofrequency applications in this region.

The TSH coefficient of variation intra-assay and inter-assay in Advia Centaur Platform were < 2.8% and < 4.28%, respectively. Both Roche Cobas “e” and Advia Centaur are competitive one-step immunoassay for FT4 quantification but differ in reagents labeling. In Advia Centaur, the labeling is an analogue of T4 hormone, labelled with acrydinium-ester, which compete with the patient’s FT4 for a little quantity of polyclonal rabbit antibody bound to a solid phase. However, in Roche, the labeling is a polyclonal sheep antibody (immunometric one-step assay) labelled with sulfonyl-Rhutenium; the solid phase bound T4 analogue and the patient’s FT4 patient hormone compete for a little quantity of polyclonal sheep antibody labeled with suffonyl-Rhutenium. The results obtained by both methods are shown in . After confirming an under-treated hypothyroidism, the dose of levothyroxine was increased to the initial of 75 micrograms. +Autoantibodies anti-T4 presence was confirmed using PEG precipitation and dilution methods, following an in house protocol based in the radioactivity measurement of the precipitant after addition of Polyethylene glycol solution 20% w/v in water to the serum patient and serum negative control previously incubated with I-125 radiolabeled -Thyroxine in the same run. Serum patient was found to be positive with a percentage of 77.4% of fixation (positive if higher than 10%). Control negative serum showed a percentage of 5% of fixation. Auto-antibodies anti-T3 were negative following the same in house protocol. The patient sample was PEG-precipitated in order to confirm the autoantibodies anti-T4 interference in FT4 Advia Centaur assay with a validated in-house protocol in an Advia centaur platform. We selected a patient control specimen with a very low FT4 concentration like Blank and another patient control specimen with very high FT4 concentration. To compare both, the matrix effect by PEG in Advia centaur acrydinium-ester label and the behaviour of a sample in the same patient range after PEG precipitation. The antibody interference gave a very discordant result before and after PEG precipitation in the patient’s problem specimen. No relevant disagreement was found in the control specimens before and after PEG precipitation. +To further evaluate the antibody interference, we performed a double-dilution test in order to confirm the T4-autoantibodies interference in the Advia centaur platform. We did this by using a very low FT4 level pool from hypothyroid patients as a zero diluent and patient´s control specimens without FT4 test interference as well as a very high FT4 level. All of them were analyzed at the same run. The patient sample showed a non-linear increase in the FT4 level due to the decreasing title of high avidity interfering T4-autoantibodies after double-dilution test . Finally, total T4 and T3 levels were also analyzed in Advia centaur platform in order to detect interference in total thyroid hormones. No relevant discordance was detected after the total T4 and total T3 quantification in Advia centaur platform respect the FT4 and FT3 hormones in the same platform and patient’ specimen. The total T4 level was 67.9 µg/dL (4.5 - 10.9) and the total T3 was 1.43 ng/mL (0.6 - 1.81). PEG precipitation and dilution tests were performed . Patient specimen showed a very low PEG precipitated recovery, which accounted for the PEG eliminated interference probably owing to the antiT4-autoantibodies. We speculate that the high title and high avidity patient index anti T4 autoantibodies were quenching the T4 coated paramagnetic solid phase beads, displacing the low title monoclonal mouse anti T4 from the binding site in the T4 molecule. After washing the monoclonal acrydinium labeled mouse, antiT4-antibodies were discarded and no signal was detected in the competitive assay, which explained the high Total T4 concentration observed in the patient sample in the Advia centaur platform total T4 assay. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3001_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3001_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..f31c6c872675857fe4608515e0dfe4d9c7f3a2a5 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3001_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +8-year-old boy with no personal or family history of interest, who presented to the paediatric emergency department with abnormal ocular movements of a year's duration.

Blood picture showed high total white cell count with severe eosinophilia with no abnormal cells. Her erythrocyte sedimentation rate was 60 mm in 1st h in the presence of normal C-reactive protein. Sinus tachycardia with wide spread ST depression was evident on electrocardiogram. Chest X-ray was normal other than the evidence of heart failure. 2D-echocardiogram showed global left ventricular hypokinesia with 40% ejection fraction and thin layer of pericardial effusion.

Coronary angiogram and other non invasive cardiac imaging were not performed due to the practical problems of getting them done as they were not freely available. Clinically detected heart failure was confirmed by 2D ECHO and biochemical markers. The presence of global left ventricular dysfunction was better explained with myocarditis than myocardial infarction as there should be multi territory ischaemia to explain it which was less likely in our patient given that she was young and did not had any cardiovascular risk factors.

Myeloproliferative hypereosinophilic syndrome can give rise to chronic eosinophilic leukaemia. The possibility of this was excluded by negative FIP1L1–PDGFRA and BCR–ABL gene transcription. Secondary causes for hypereosinophilia were excluded and the diagnosis of idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome and eosinophilic myocarditis was made depending on the available investigations. Normal thyroid function test, negative ANA, DsDNA, negative antibody tires of common viral infection were used to exclude other differential diagnosis. This young female was given supportive care and treatment for heart failure and monitored in the high dependency unit to observe for possible deterioration. Her blood pressure dropped to 80/60 mmHg on day four of the admission requiring inotropic support.

His father, elder brother, and nephew had the same history of chronic massive unilateral leg swelling starting in the teenage years. All of them were diagnosed as having lymphedema praecox. + +During physical examination, the patient’s vital signs were blood pressure of 140/100 mm Hg, a regular pulse of 90 beats per min, oxygen saturation of 97% on room air, and a temperature of 36.7°C. The patient’s body mass index was 31.6 kg/ m2. He had jugular venous distension. The lungs were clear to auscultate, and no additional sounds were heard on cardiovascular examination. The left leg showed non-pitting edema with indurated, woody skin and lichenification, while the right leg had mild pitting edema. There were numerous verrucous folds and cobblestone-like nodules, and plaques and a painless ulcer on the left leg. The Kaposi-Stemmer sign (inability to tent the dorsal aspect of the skin at the base of the second toe) was positive. The temperature of both legs was the same. + +The results of the laboratory evaluation, including blood count, cardiac enzymes, D-dimer, C-reactive protein, metabolic profile, and thyroid function test were normal. Abnormal values included B-type natriuretic peptide levels of 467 pg/mL (reference range, up to 100). Blood cultures showed no organisms. Chest radiograph images showed scattered pulmonary infiltrate with prominent hilar markings, and the electrocardiogram showed a partial left bundle branch block. Echocardiography showed an ejection fraction of 20% and dilated left and right chambers. There was also global hypokinesia with a thinned left ventricle and mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. Doppler sonography did not show any arterial or venous clots. Computed tomography angiography showed normal coronary arteries. The patient was admitted as a working diagnosis for dilated cardiomyopathy and presumed elephantiasis of the left leg. A skin biopsy was consistent with stasis dermatitis, and a diagnosis of ENV superimposed on lymphedema praecox with congestive cardiac failure was confirmed. + +The patient began guideline-directed medical therapy for cardiac failure with high dose diuretics including eplerenone 25 mg once daily and furosemide 40 mg every 6 h, and intravenous amoxicillin/clavulanic acid 1.2 g 3 times daily as empirical therapy for cellulitis. His leg was treated with the help of compression stockings and inelastic multi-layer bandaging. The physiotherapist started the patient on limb decongestive therapy. After a week of guideline-directed medical therapy and physiotherapy, his swelling improved and there was a slight reduction of edema. He was prescribed oral amoxicillin 500 mg (twice per day for 7 days) and a retinoid cream. At the 1-week follow-up visit, the patient was satisfied, despite the treatment showing only a slight improvement. His shortness of breath and orthopnea had subsided. He was referred to a specialized dermatology center for further management. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3230_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3230_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..b5bb1e466fd8df502f6102725273c2075bdbbb4f --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3230_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,5 @@ +The patient was a 76-year-old woman.

Successful BiVAD explant occurred, 141 days after initial implant with SF 163 μg/L and TS <1% 12 days prior. Left ventricular biopsy at this time demonstrated less intracytoplasmic iron deposition compared with the initial biopsy. Post BiVAD explant, desferrioxamine was ceased as a potential cause of worsening renal tubular acidosis. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) completed 2 weeks post BiVAD explant demonstrated normal biventricular systolic function but a myocardial T2* time of 12.3 milliseconds (normal > 20 milliseconds) consistent with residual myocardial iron loading.

Following alignment of the sequencing with the Human Genome version 19 (HG19), our patient’s heterozygosity for the HFE H63D was confirmed, and no other mutation were present in the HFE gene. Variant analysis identified homozygosity for a variant c.G959T (NM_213653) in exon four of the HFE2 gene (aka HJV) resulting in a p.G320V mutation (rs74315323). This DNA change was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. The G320V mutation has previously been reported in multiple cases of juvenile onset hereditary hemochromatosis [3]. No other mutations known to be associated with iron overload were identified in our patient, nor were there any other novel or rare single nucleotide polymorphisms in the coding regions of sequenced genes. + +At follow-up 12 months after his presentation with severe biventricular heart failure the patient has made a near-complete recovery and had returned to work.

He was diagnosed with acute decompensated heart failure due to ischemic cardiomyopathy. The patient had a history of severe coronary heart disease and chronic kidney disease (CKD Stage II-III). During his last hospitalization in 2017, Coronary angiography showed severe triple vessel coronary artery disease, he refuse revascularization therapy. Holter revealed paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia and frequent ventricular premature beats, so he received implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) treatment. Aspirin, atorvastatin, furosemide, spirolactone, perindopril and metoprolol were taken regularly at home. On the current admission, his blood pressure and heart rate were 135/82mmHg and 75beats/min respectively. A S3 and systolic murmur were identified alone with inspiratory moist rales in the bilateral lung fields with slight edema of both lower limbs. The first laboratory values were as follows: white blood cells, 8.060/uL; hemoglobin, 14.6 g/dL; serum creatinine, 160 umol/L (estimated glomerular filtration rate 38 ml/min/1.73 m2);blood urea nitrogen 12.0 mol/L, serum sodium, 137mmol/L; serum potassium, 3.84 mmol/L; amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), 25,000 pg/mL; cardiac troponin 0.11 ng/mL. Electrocardiogram revealed a sinus rhythm with a heart rate of 75 beats per minutes, ventricular premature beats, non-specific ST-T changes. + +Chest X-ray showed cardiomegaly, left small pleural effusion and pulmonary congestion. Echocardiography demonstrated a sever left ventricular enlargement with decreased systolic function (left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, 65 mm; left ventricular ejection fraction, 28%), diffuse ventricular wall motion decrease, severe mitral regurgitation and moderate tricuspid regurgitation. The estimated pulmonary arterial pressure was 52 mmHg. The patient was diagnosed with acute decompensated heart failure caused by volume overload. In the initial treatment, intravenous loop diuretics and nesiritide were administrated as well as traditionally prescribed drugs. Because the patient was critically ill with heart failure and he was insensitive to intravenous diuretics, the patient's clinical symptoms did not improve significantly and his urine volume did not increase either. Therefore, diuretic resistance could be considered. In order to improve fluid retention and relieve his dyspnea, low-dose TLV (7.5 mg qd) was performed on day 3. The administration of TLV dramatically relieved dyspnea and increased urinary output. Cardiac rehabilitation was started gradually. Unfortunately after 3 days treatment of TLV, we observed that he became delirious and his limbs shook uncontrollably. High serum sodium 173 mmol/L was noted compared to the results of the first examination (137 mmol/L). Severe hypernatremia was diagnosed. Because no other medications were changed, we did not strictly require patient to control the fluid intake, and no other medication could cause elevation of serum sodium, we suspected a high sensitivity to the side effect of TLV. Hence, we stopped the use of TLV and encouraged patient to drink plenty of water, gastric tube was inserted orally to increase the intake of fresh water. After intensive rescue, serum sodium was restored to normal (135 mol/L) on day 10. The clinical data was as follows: white blood cells, 4, 010/uL; hemoglobin, 14.2 g/dL; serum creatinine, 104 umol/L (estimated glomerular filtration rate 62 ml/min/1.73 m2); blood urea nitrogen 10.7 mmol/L, serum sodium, 135 mmol/L; serum potassium, 4.01 mmol/L; amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), 3280 pg/mL; Although the patient's laboratory results and clinical symptoms improved, he still needed intravenous diuretics to maintain liquid output. But he remained insensitive to them. Later, when the patient refused continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), we tried again to use a lower dose of TLV (3.75 mg qd) to improve diuretic resistance. 2 days later, Serum sodium rose again (162 mmol/L). We had confirmed that hypernatremia was caused by TLV. After the suspension of TLV, his serum sodium decreased to 138 mmol/L gradually, psychiatric symptom recovered. In order to maintain the patient's urine volume, We had to give the patient a larger dose of intravenous loop diuresis and nesiritide . During this period, the patient's overall condition was stable. He was discharged on the 21st day after admission. After hospital discharge, patient eventually died of cardiac arrest due to critically ill heart failure. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3355_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3355_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..69773f513927e1aff7352209c4133a6334b78977 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_3355_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +We report here a 6-year-old girl came to the outpatient department of Mogadishu Somali Turkey Hospital complaining of voice changes (deepening), extensive overweight, excessive hair growth over the body and clitoromegaly for one year.

Cefazolin was discontinued due to hepatoxicity associated with it. After two days without active antibiotic treatment, an improvement in the hepatic panel was observed (GOT = 171 U/L, GPT = 180 U/L) and, due to clinical stability, the patient was discharged with a cotrimoxazole 160/800 mg indication every 8 hours orally as an outpatient treatment and control by external consultations with the objective of completing 8 effective weeks of antibiotic treatment. After 12 days of discharge and still on active antibiotic treatment, the patient attended the hospital after falling from her own height with a traumatic encephalocranium, without loss of consciousness.

Family’s medical history revealed that the patient’s sister had implanted a pacemaker due to sick-sinus syndrome, at the age of 22 years. Plasma electrolyte levels, including potassium and calcium, were within normal ranges. Toxicological screening was negative. The ECG at presentation showed sinus rhythm and an ER pattern with substantial J-point elevation in most of the ECG-leads with notching of the terminal part of the QRS complex in the lateral leads and slurring in the inferior leads . Coronary angiography revealed an anomalous origin of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery arising from a separate ostium of the right sinus of Valsalva without any other concomitant congenital anomaly. In the absence of neurological recovery or purposeful movements, a targeted temperature management protocol with a goal temperature of 36 °C was started in the intensive care unit . Three hours later, the patient began to experience very frequent episodes of spontaneous VF. The episodes of VF were induced by short-coupled monomorphic premature ventricular complexes (PVC) falling into the vulnerable descending part of the T-wave . The PVCs showed a right bundle block morphology in V1 and a right-inferior axis in the limb leads, suggesting an origin in the left anterior fascicle. The patient was shocked for more than 10 VF episodes, but the PVC kept reoccurring, sometimes just a few beats after cardioversion .

According to the significant reduction of the tumor, the bilateral mesial temporal lobes returned to medial position. Further, a hyperintense area in left frontal lobe appeared on T2 -weighted images . Because of the possibility that the epileptic seizures were induced by the rapid shrinkage of the tumor, we suspended DA therapy until the seizures were under control with the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam 2000 mg/day. General anesthetic therapy was required for the control of seizures for 2 weeks. After 4 weeks, we resumed DA therapy with extremely low doses of CAB.

Histopathology identified an invasive ductal carcinoma with a tumor diameter of 0.9 cm and a nuclear grade of 2; one of 23 lymph nodes showed metastasis. Tissue profiling revealed the following: estrogen receptor (ER), positive; progesterone receptor (PgR), negative; and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), undetermined.

Chest X-ray showed right midlung consolidation, and patchy left lower lung opacities, concerning for multifocal pneumonia. Rapid influenza antigen test was positive for influenza A; viral subtypes were not specified. A nasopharyngeal swab specimen was sent for real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test (NEcov19 assay) at the Nebraska Medical Center Clinical Lab to rule out COVID-19 infection. He was placed on contact and airborne isolation precautions with eye protection for concerns of probable COVID-19 as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations. +Lab workup was significant for elevated procalcitonin and lymphopenia .

He had a history of recurrent intermittent posterior calf pain. He endorsed having recently trained for and completed a marathon two weeks before the presentation. His initial management was for a presumptive Achilles rupture; he was placed in a boot and advised to be weight-bearing as tolerated. He then presented to an orthopedic foot and ankle clinic for follow-up. His examination was notable for a palpable defect in the Achilles tendon, about 3 cm proximal to the insertion. There was asymmetry in the resting position of his feet when prone with his knees flexed, and Thompson’s test was abnormal. He was also noted to have a prominent bony mass in his posterior calf. The bony prominence was in close proximity to the Achilles rupture site. He was aware of the prominence and told during adolescence that it was a benign bony growth. The bone mass had previously caused irritation in his calf with restrictive shoe wear, the donning of boots, and activities requiring significant pushoff and forced dorsiflexion. The aforementioned irritants lead to a history of well-established symptoms of discomfort near the site of the current injury. The patient noted a “pulling” sensation at his Achilles tendon during symptomatic periods. Despite having known symptoms, he had not experienced discomfort or functional limitations significant enough to consider specialist care. The patient did not have a history of bony lesions at other sites and denied familial or hereditary genetic conditions associated with multiple bony lesions. We believe this solitary lesion was sporadic in nature. +Radiographic evaluation at presentation was significant for posterior bony prominence in the distal tibia with soft tissue irregularity at the Achilles tendon proximal to the insertion . The patient sustained an acute traumatic Achilles tendon rupture in the setting of a longstanding osteochondroma in the posterior tibia. On exam, the rupture site was very close to the site of the osteochondroma. We discussed treatment options, both operative and nonoperative, and ultimately, he elected to proceed with surgery. The surgical plan included Achilles tendon repair and excision of the posterior tibial osteochondroma to prevent future mechanical irritation at the repair site. +A posterior open incision was made and carried down through skin and subcutaneous tissue to the paratenon . The tendon rupture was identified . The edges were cleaned, and any nonviable portions were debrided. Next, we found the bony mass was immediately palpable and in contact with the tendon. The lesion had eroded through the anterior paratenon, and the posterior tip was visible through the rupture site . Therefore, we elected to proceed with the excision of the osteochondroma. We opened the deep compartment, mobilized the FHL tendon laterally, and dissected between the neurovascular bundle and the muscle belly. We exposed the bony mass, isolated it from all surrounding tissue, and then used an osteotome to remove it. Once the mass was no longer prominent, we used a rasp to smooth any sharp edges . We confirmed appropriate resection both clinically and fluoroscopically, irrigated the site, and placed bone wax on open areas to prevent regrowth and augment hemostasis from bleeding bone. The ruptured tendon was repaired using Suture Tape (Arthrex, Inc., Naples, FL) with a running Krakow proximal and distal. The tendon edges were approximated, and sutures were tied together to complete the Achilles tendon repair. This was then augmented with a running-peritendinous repair. The wound was closed in layers and splinted in resting plantarflexion. He was made non-weightbearing for 2 weeks, followed by the initiation of our usual functional rehabilitation protocol . The resected lesion was evaluated by pathology. The gross specimen was found to be partially surfaced with roughened cartilage. Histologic exam findings were consistent with exostosis with fatty marrow and focal partially acellular trabeculae . +At his first post-operative evaluation, 2 weeks post-surgery, his wound was well healed, radiographs were obtained, and he started physical therapy (PT) . He continued to do well with minimal pain and had made progress regarding range of motion with PT. He noted some subjective stiffness in the great toe range of motion, which was resolved by the final follow-up. At 3 months post-operatively, he was participating in PT and continued to do well. He has returned to work without issue and is resuming athletic activities. At the final follow-up, he reported no pain with activities and that he had returned to running 4 miles a day as well as playing basketball recreationally.

The ICD was successfully inserted. +After six months, the patient returned to the heart center complaining of an awkward and unpleasant sensation from the moments the ICD sensed the tachyarrhythmia and shocked her. Following is the patient's drug history: Mexiletine, diabezide, aspirin, amlodipine, metohexital, metformin, atorvastatin, valsartan, and empagliflozin. Stellate ganglion block was done twice in the center, aiming to modulate the pulse rate and ICD shock number. Aspirin was discontinued four days before each block. +The first session of SGB was done six months after the insertion of the ICD. The block was performed unilaterally under fluoroscopy guidance with 40 mg triamcinolone and 6cc ropivacaine 0.25%, first on the right side and the next day on the left side in two successive days with the same method and the same drugs. Generation of horner's syndrome and unilateral block side change in the temperature of the upper limb was determined as block success (, -). +After these successful blocks, the patient was symptom-free for about two months. Symptom-free means there was no activity or shocking ICD due to tachyarrythmias. After this time, another event of ICD's shock happened. The patient was admitted, and another session of unilateral SGB was done with the same method and drugs. At this time, such as the previous time, the symptom-free period was also about two months. +Finally, it was decided to perform radiofrequency SGB to increase the duration of the effect. Before initiating the procedure, we consulted with a cardiologist. He visited the patient a few days earlier and came to the operating room at the beginning of the procedure initiation. Monitoring vital signs, including heart rate, blood pressure, and electrocardiogram (six leads) was performed in the operation room, and the cardiologist deactivated the ICD with a magnet before initiating the block. Furthermore, the cardiologist stayed in the operating room all over the time of block until the end and then reactivated the ICD again. +Patient preparation with neck extension and slight head rotation to the opposite side was done in the supine position. The skin was sterilized with betadine and alcohol. By linear ultrasound transducer, 5 - 12 MHz (Sonosite, EDGE2, USA), the anterior tubercle of the transverse process of C6 and, after moving caudally, the C7 transverse was confirmed. Then under the guidance of sonography with a short axial view, the internal jugular vein, the longus colli muscle, and the carotid artery were identified . For better screening of the vessels through the needle course, color Doppler mode was used. After skin infiltration, with a real-time ultrasound guide, an RF sharp needle 22-gauge with a 5 cm length and 5 mm active tip (Cosman, USA) from the lateral side of the probe was introduced in-plane (from the left direction for doing unilateral RF neurolysis). As we first performed PRF, which had no significant pain and irritation, we did not inject any local anesthetic before doing PRF. The needle tip was placed on the longus Colli muscle and under the prevertebral fascia. Aspiration for cerebrospinal fluid, air, or blood was negative, and 1 mL of saline was injected. A neuro-term RF electrode with a 50 mm length was inserted and connected to the generator. The RF needle was positioned perpendicular to the ganglion for performing PRF, and for thermal RF, the needle was placed alongside the SG. In the next step, sensory stimulation was performed with 50 Hz, 0.1 - 0.5 V, with no neural numbness to the upper limbs or other areas. We checked the proximity to recurrent laryngeal nerves, phrenic or the segmental nerve, which are crucial. +For motor stimulation, at 2 Hz, 0.4 - 1.0 V exercise test, no corresponding segmental muscle tremors, and the jumping sensation was observed. Motor stimulation was performed by asking the patient to say "ee" to check for preservation of the motor function and exclude needle malposition. After the negative sensory and motor test, high voltage (60 V) PRF at 42°C for 360 s, 20 ms pulse width, and 2 Hz frequency started. Then before starting RF at 80ºC, we injected 1cc lidocaine 2% to prevent irritation and pain that may result from neurolysis at high temperatures. At 80ºC for 60 seconds, thermal left unilateral RF neurolysis was performed and repeated four times after needle-tip rotation and directed to the most medial site and most ventral aspect of the C6 and C7 transverse process under US guidance, with repeated sensory and motor stimulation before RF lesioning. Thirty minutes after the procedure's termination, a follow-up ultrasound screening was done to exclude any hematoma formation. +From pre- to post-block, there was an increase in the forehead and hands temperature, as recorded by a skin thermometer, which was used as a surrogate for a successful block. +After doing RF neurolysis in multiple time intervals, we visited the patient 1, 3, 6, 12, and 14 months later, and observed no signs of ventricular tachycardia. The patient did not complain about the unpleasant sensation of ICD activity and shock. At this time, she did not have the problem up to 14 months after the procedure and showed no sign of recurrence of the cardiac tachyarrhythmia. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_73_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_73_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1e9817f797c9f28bd0e6d0f3022948f6afe9f1f1 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_73_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 48-year-old man was admitted to Jinhua People's Hospital on June 29, 2021 due to change in stool habit for 5 d. +His symptoms started 5 d previously and were accompanied by a change in stool habit (yellow, thin, pasty stools 3-5 times a day, without mucus and blood).

Abdominal CT scan revealed ascites around the liver and the spleen, small bowel extension, sausage-shaped sign from the transverse colon to the rectum, and a mass (40 mm in diameter) in the rectum . Based on these findings, we diagnosed the patient with a strangulated bowel obstruction induced by intussusception associated with the intra-rectal mass and subsequently performed emergency surgery. +Laparotomy was performed with the patient in the lithotomy position under general anesthesia. We found bloody ascites and intussusception. The mass served as a lead point and was moved to the anal side by peritoneal reflection. We were unable to relieve this invagination by the Hutchinson maneuver alone. Therefore, we performed the trans-anal procedure to push the mass gently through the anus to the oral side. Subsequently, we released the invagination using the Hutchinson maneuver . Although the bowel was not necrotic, we found a potentially malignant tumor in the cecum with mobile cecum, which was considered to be the lead point of this intussusception . We found that the regional lymph nodes were not swollen and that the tumor moved well against the intestinal wall, indicating that it had not invaded the muscularis propria. There was no right colic artery and vein arising from the superior mesenteric artery or vein. We cut the roots of the ileocecal artery and vein and resected the ascending colon and the ileocecal portion with D2 lymph node dissection as the formal oncologic treatment. The intestine was then reconstructed by functional end-to-end anastomosis. All the procedures were successfully performed without any adverse events. +The resected mass was reddish, round, elastic, and soft, with a granular surface measuring 45 mm in length and 40 mm in width in the cecum . Histopathological examination of the specimen revealed a moderately to well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma in the tubulovillous adenoma . The cancerous lesion was found superficially in the mucosal layer with no regional lymph node metastasis. +The cecorectal intussusception seemed to have occurred secondary to the cecum cancer with mobile cecum based on the intraoperative and histopathological findings. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course, except postoperative pneumonia, and was discharged from the hospital on the 25th postoperative day after an antibiotic infusion therapy. No recurrence of cecum cancer was identified 3 years after the surgery. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_855_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_855_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..a9eae4b230a3f4bd489e0e06054e5383e29b630c --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_855_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,8 @@ +A 14-year-old male patient came to our clinic presenting a traumatic crown fracture of the permanent, maxillary right central incisor . +The patient had preserved the broken fragment in saline solution and it was checked for goodness of adaptation to the tooth . +To lessen the ordeal for the already traumatized young patient, we decided to treat him using Er:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers we had at hand at our practice (Fidelis III Plus; Fotona, Ljubljana, Slovenia).

The left second costovertebral joint and the second rib head were also resected. Transpedicular curettage was performed to ensure sufficient neural decompression of the tumor, providing a safe target volume for radiation. +The body gamma knife was used as a radical treatment for iliac tumor and as an adjuvant treatment for thoracic disease. Body gamma knife planning and delivery were similar to those reported in previous studies (, , ). The patient was placed in a supine position and immobilized using a vacuum negative pressure bag and a body frame bed, allowing to breathe naturally. Markings were made on the four areas of the body that will receive the radiation to ensure reproducible body position. The CT images were transferred to the OPEN body gamma knife treatment planning system. A local bone destruction lesion was found at the posterior lower edge of the left ilium (near the sacroiliac joint) with clear boundaries and soft tissue density. The treatment target area was determined in the bone window on the CT image using the body gamma knife treatment planning system (window width, 1,000 HU; window level, 300 HU). The gross target volume (GTV) was delineated according to the lesion identified in the bone window. The clinical target volume (CTV) was generated by extending the GTV by 5 mm in all directions. The planning target volume (PTV) was generated by extending the CTV by 5 mm in all directions. The 50% radiation dose covered 100% of the PTV, the 60% dose covered 100% of the CTV, and the 70% dose covered 100% of the GTV.

A lengthy discussion was had regarding hip resurfacing versus hip replacement; however, based on the patient’s age and activity level, conservative hip resurfacing with metal-on-metal (MoM) parts was deemed an appropriate option. The patient agreed, given his desire to run at least 5 miles twice per week, competed in triathlons, and work. Risks and benefits were discussed in detail with the patient. We discussed surgical approaches to the hip joint and the rationale for a posterior approach. +The patient was brought to the operating room and was placed on the hip table in the lateral decubitus position. The patient’s surgical area was prepped and draped in the standard, sterile fashion. Two threaded pins for a minioptical navigation tool (Intellijoint HIP®, Intellijoint Surgical Inc., Waterloo, ON, Canada; off-label use) were placed into the iliac crest, approximately 2 cm posterior to the ASIS. The navigation system camera was then attached, and registration was performed. Next, a standard posterolateral incision was made through the skin and dissection was carried down through subcutaneous tissue to the underlying fascia achieving hemostasis where necessary. The posterior short external rotators were identified, and the piriformis, conjoined tendons, and quadratus femoris were detached and tagged. Following elevation of the gluteus minimus, a 360° circumferential capsulotomy was performed. The femoral disc for navigational leg length measurements was impacted onto the greater trochanter, and registration of the hip center of rotation was performed. Once the hip was dislocated, the femoral head and neck were exposed. Osteophytes from the anterior superior aspect of the femoral neck were now removed, restoring the anterior head-neck offset. The femoral head was then measured as to its diameter. The head-neck templates were placed along the posterior aspect of the femoral neck to measure the sizing. Lines were marked along the midpoint of the femoral neck in both the coronal and sagittal planes. At this point, attention was turned toward the acetabulum. The labrum, as well as the tissues from the acetabular fossa, was removed. Reaming was begun, with the plan for a 1 mm press-fit. Reaming was first directed medially and then in the desired alignment of the acetabular implant. A trial implant was impacted into place and marked as to its depth of insertion using electrocautery. The actual implant (58mm M2a-Magnum cup; Biomet Inc., Warsaw, IN, USA) was then placed on its insertion handle and impacted into place. The alignment was checked using external alignment guides, bony landmarks, and corroboration with pre-operative templating. The navigation unit was then used to confirm final acetabular component position, measuring 14° of anteversion and 39° of inclination as selected by the surgeon intraoperatively. Following femoral preparation, the trial femoral implant was passed around the prepared bone to ensure adequate bone preparation and contact. With the trial femoral implant in place, the hip was reduced and the navigation device used to confirm the restoration of leg lengths, measuring 4 mm of lengthening . The hip was again dislocated and the trial head removed. It was then decided that the bone was sufficiently supportive to allow for uncemented fixation and the actual implant was impacted. The head was relocated into the acetabulum, after ensuring that there was no debris or soft tissue interposed. The capsule and short external rotators were reattached through a bony bridge in the greater trochanter. The quadratus femoris and gluteus maximus tendon insertion were also repaired. The navigation hardware was then removed. We returned the patient to the supine position. We verified that all lower extremity compartments were soft and compressible and that we had intact distal pulses. The patient was then transferred to the recovery room in stable condition. +Standard, pre- and post-operative AP pelvic radiographs were obtained and analyzed using TraumaCad (Brainlab, Chicago, USA). Final values for cup position and leg length were measured in triplicate and averaged. Radiographic analysis revealed a final post-operative cup position of 14.3° anteversion and 38.3° inclination on the post-operative radiograph , as well as a lengthened operative leg of 5 mm between pre- and post-operative images. +At 1-year post-operative, the patient was doing extremely well, demonstrating range of motion in the operative hip of 0°–120° flexion, 40° external rotation, 10° internal rotation, 40° abduction, and 10° adduction. Harris Hip Score was 91.8, with no instability in the joint and both neuromuscular and vascular examinations normal. The patient was able to walk unlimited distances, run, cycle and swim with no physical limitations. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_94_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_94_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..73c6747c199b791d6c26b68f3f680fa17bb97949 --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_94_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +A 29 years old female proband experienced an episode of venous thrombosis at the age of 18. The thrombosis of left deep femoral vein occurred at the background of oral contraceptives. She also had a family history of thrombosis - father and grandmother had had thromboembolic events . The proband was diagnosed with primary AT deficiency type I based on coagulation profile. Her main concern was to determine the hereditary nature of AT deficiency; she was highly interested in prospective and reproductive genetic counseling and planning for pregnancy. No DNA testing had been performed prior to our counseling. +The proband’s phenotype was unremarkable, no findings specific for syndromic or metabolic diseases were made. The level of antithrombin was measured routinely by colorimetric method (CS-5100i, Sysmex, “Berichrom Antithrombin III” kit). Mutation screening in the coding and adjacent intronic areas of the SERPINC1 gene was performed by PCR-based bi-directional Sanger sequencing: oligoprimer design was performed in the Laboratory of medical genetics with PrimerQuest and NCBI Primer Blast tools; Sanger sequencing was performed on Applied Biosystems™ 3730xl DNA Analyzer, followed by sequence analysis with Chromas DNA Sequencing Software. Bioinformatic resources PolyPhen2, SIFT, Mutation Taster, NetGene2, and NetNGlyc 1.0 Server were used for in silico analysis of genetic variants. Databases “1000 Genomes”, “dbSNP”, and “Exome Variant Server” were used to evaluate the frequency of detected variant. Assessment of clinical significance of the detected variant was evaluated according to Joint Consensus Recommendation of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology . SWISS-MODEL integrated service was used for SERPINC1-W221S protein modeling [–]. We also used NGlycPred Server to evaluate the probability of glycosylation occurring at a newly created site. +In the proband the residual antithrombin level was found to be significantly decreased down to 44–48% (AT deficiency type I) in independent repetitive measurements. Repetitive measurements were performed in order to confirm the low level of antithrombin in our patient and to rule out the artificially low results. A new genetic variant c.662G > C (p.W221S) in 4 exon of the SERPINC1 gene was detected in the proband. Cascade family screening was performed; genetic variant c.662G > C (p.W221S) was found in the symptomatic father of the proband and was absent in the healthy sister. Variant c.662G > C (p.W221S) had not previously described in the literature and was absent in the “1000 Genomes” and other available databases. PolyPhen2, Mutation Taster and SIFT resources characterize c.662 G > C (p.W221S) as probably damaging; no possible splicing effect was detected. +To improve the predictive value of the variant we proceeded with in silico analysis. Loss and acquisition of the glycosylation sites were both described in AT deficiency. Consequently, we analyzed glycosylation pattern in wt-AT and in W221S-AT using NetNGlyc 1.0 resource. According to NetNGlyc 1.0 Server prediction, p.W221S could create an additional glycosylation site . +To evaluate the possibility of glycosylation occurring at a 219–221 site in the mutated SERPINC1 protein we built a model of it using a SWISS-MODEL service and analyzed it with NGlycPred Server. Both protein models with and without ligands were analyzed. According to NGlycPred Server prediction, the newly created 219–221 glycosylation site will not be glycosylated . +Our classification of the c.662 G > C (p.W221S) variant was based on familial screening, population data from open-access databases (Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes, ExAC) and in silico analysis. We also assume that a PP4 criterion is applicable to our case, because clinical findings in our patient are specific for hereditary AT deficiency which is a monogenic disorder. No functional studies are available for this variant. +The proband was diagnosed with AT I deficiency, which is highly likely to be of hereditary nature. Based on all the evidence we classify the c.662 G > C (p.W221S) variant as a variant of unknown clinical significance. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_976_en.txt b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_976_en.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..d497e678a7b7491d79ff399e02b92bac748c5e6d --- /dev/null +++ b/data/test_raw_data/en_test/multiclinsum_test_en/fulltext/multiclinsum_test_976_en.txt @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +A 69-year-old Hispanic male with no documented past medical history presented to the emergency department with a 3-week history of shortness of breath, intermittent chest pain, and lower extremity edema. Initial vital signs were notable for an elevated blood pressure of 150/86 mmHg and a heart rate of 73 bpm. Jugular venous distention was markedly elevated to 12 cm of water (cm H2O), alongside sparse bibasilar crackles on pulmonary exam and 1 + pitting pedal oedema. Brain natriuretic peptide was as high as 881 pg/mL [reference range (RR): 0–100 pg/mL] with a high sensitivity troponin I of 16 ng/L [RR: 0–20 ng/L], which peaked to 18 ng/L 2 h later. Chest radiograph revealed trace pulmonary vascular congestion and cardiomegaly. Electrocardiogram demonstrated sinus rhythm with non-specific T-wave abnormalities . Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) demonstrated a left ventricular systolic ejection fraction (EF) of 68%. Left ventricular diastolic function was found to include an E/A ratio of 2.91, E/e′ ratio of 11.15, and deceleration time of 151 msec. Additional findings included a dilated left and right atrium with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR), moderate mitral regurgitation (MR), malcoaptation of the tricuspid valve leaflets, and a myxomatous mitral valve (, , ). There was a moderately enlarged right ventricle with moderately reduced systolic function and evidence of pulmonary hypertension (see , ). The patient was subsequently hospitalized for newly diagnosed acute decompensated right heart failure with preserved left ventricular EF. +Two days after the initiation of aggressive diuresis with intravenous furosemide, a right heart catheterization demonstrated mildly elevated right heart pressures (mean right atrial 8 mmHg, right ventricle 31/8 mmHg, pulmonary artery 31/12 mmHg, and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure of 10 mmHg). A coronary angiogram revealed normal coronary arteries. The aetiology of this patient’s heart failure remained unclear. Given the significant valvular abnormalities, thyroid studies were sent for further workup. Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was significantly low at <0.010 uIU/mL (RR: 0.45–4.12 uIU/mL), along with an elevated free T4 of 1.96 ng/dL (RR: 0.60–1.12 ng/dL). +Subsequent serological data revealed slightly elevated thyroid peroxidase antibody of 11 IU/mL [RR: <9 IU/mL], negative thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI index <1.0), and negative thyroglobulin antibody (<1 IU/mL). Thyroid ultrasound showed a 4.9 cm lesion in the left thyroid lobe . The patient’s thyrotoxicosis was believed to likely be attributed to toxic adenoma. It was determined that the patient’s heart failure and valve abnormalities were likely consistent with thyrotoxic heart disease. Methimazole 10 mg once daily was initiated for treatment in addition to furosemide for diuresis and carvedilol and losartan for hypertension. The patient was discharged to a shelter, but unfortunately, he was lost to follow-up and did not obtain a TTE after completion of treatment due to social circumstances. \ No newline at end of file
