Article Abstract
A 49-year-old man presented with symptoms of hypercalcemia that had been present for 3 months. An initial chest x-ray showed a large anterior mediastinal mass. Subsequent computed tomography also demonstrated a calcified lesion in the uncinate process of the pancreas, and a neck ultrasound showed parathyroid lesions. The combination of symptoms and tumors raised the possibility of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 as the diagnosis. The lesions were later biopsy-proven to be atypical carcinoid neuroendocrine tumors. The patient underwent simultaneous neck dissection for bilateral subtotal parathyroidectomy and midline sternotomy for thymectomy of the large mediastinal mass.

Background: The susceptibility values of the basal ganglia reflect the health status of these nuclei. We aimed to explore the associations between various demographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, and biological factors that have the potential to contribute to magnetic susceptibility and investigate the comprehensive impact of these multiple factors on basal ganglia susceptibility values.
Methods: We included 25,980 participants from the UK Biobank.

Binge drinking (BD) is a widespread pattern of excessive alcohol consumption among adolescents and young adults with detrimental consequences for brain development. Animal models are essential for investigating the neurobiological mechanisms underlying BD, but selecting an appropriate model is critical to ensure relevance to human behavior. This study aims to validate a murine model of (BD) using Swiss Webster mice.

Environmental phenols are widely used in consumer products and are of increasing concern due to their potential endocrine-disrupting effects. Physiologically based toxicokinetic (PBTK) models offer a powerful tool for estimating human exposure by translating biomonitoring data into external intake values. However, conventional PBTK models are typically chemical-specific and resource-intensive.

Cell type-specific regulatory programs that drive type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the pancreas are poorly understood. Here, we performed single-nucleus multiomics and spatial transcriptomics in up to 32 nondiabetic (ND), autoantibody-positive (AAB), and T1D pancreas donors. Genomic profiles from 853,005 cells mapped to 12 pancreatic cell types, including multiple exocrine subtypes.

Objective: We identified a novel mutation in the protein kinase cAMP-dependent type I regulatory subunit α () gene in a Chinese patient presenting with multiple recurrent cardiac myxomas, confirming a diagnosis of Carney complex (CNC). By reviewing the relevant literature, we aimed to enhance our understanding of this condition.
Case Presentation: A 12-year-old girl was referred to the Department of Cardiac Surgery at our hospital due to multiple cardiac myxomas.
