Article Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) is a clinically indolent lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by accumulation of mature B-cell lymphocytes. Given the common CD5 co-expression, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is one of the most important entities in the differential diagnosis. MCL and CLL/SLL might exhibit overlapping morphologic and immunohistochemical features, making diagnosis particularly difficult in cases of composite lymphomas. Here, we present a unique case of composite lymphoma in an 86-year-old male, along with a literature review on the immunophenotypic variability of both MCL and CLL, which should always be confirmed with additional ancillary cytogenetic and molecular studies.

Myoepithelial carcinoma (MECA) is a malignant neoplasm composed exclusively of myoepithelial cells and accounts for less than 1% of all salivary gland tumors. Its diagnosis is often challenging due to histologic overlaps with benign lesions and its variable morphologic presentation. Although molecular profiling has emerged as a valuable tool in salivary gland tumor classification, the genetic landscape of MECA remains incompletely defined.

Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) further elevate this risk, potentially through a heightened prothrombotic state. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the levels of select prothrombotic biomarkers - fibrinogen, C-reactive protein (CRP), D-dimer, von Willebrand Factor (vWF), homocysteine, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) - in patients with stable COPD and AECOPD, and to assess their diagnostic and prognostic significance.

Introduction: The advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has changed infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from an acute disease to a manageable chronic condition; however, pulmonary complications continue to affect patient quality of life. The goal of this research was to examine the link between CD4+ levels, viral load, and respiratory function in patients infected with HIV.
Methods: Patients were grouped as HIV-infected and non-infected (1:2 ratio).
Integrated neurobehavioral and organ-specific safety profiling of baicalin: acute/subacute toxicity studies.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Baicalin, an extract derived from the dried root of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi (Huang Qin), has demonstrated neuroprotective properties. Nonetheless, the safety profile of baicalin has not yet been fully elucidated.
Aim Of The Study: The objective was to characterize the acute and subacute toxicity profiles of baicalin across various organ systems, thereby establishing safe therapeutic windows for its clinical application in the treatment of chronic neurodegenerative disorders.
