Clinicopathological and prognostic value of calcification morphology descriptors in ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast: a systematic review and meta-analysis
BackgroundCalcifications on mammography can be indicative of breast cancer, but the prognostic value of their appearance remains unclear. This...

Inhibition of Slc39a14/Slc39a8 reduce vascular calcification via alleviating iron overload induced ferroptosis in vascular smooth muscle cells
BackgroundVascular calcification (VC) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Recently, ferroptosis has been recognised as a novel...

CT features of calcified micro-gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors: a case series
BackgroundDue to the lack of corresponding clinical symptoms, small calcified gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are often overlooked in...
-
Advances in positron emission tomography tracers related to vascular calcification
Microcalcification, a type of vascular calcification, increases the instability of plaque and easily leads to acute clinical events. Positron...

Abdominal aortic calcification is independently associated with lumbar endplate degeneration
BackgroundAbdominal aortic calcification (AAC) is associated with lower back pain, reduced bone mineral density of the spine. Vascular changes could...

YKL-40 (chitinase-3-like protein 1) serum levels are associated with abdominal aortic calcification in hemodialysis patients
BackgroundVascular calcification (VC) is highly prevalent and predicts cardiovascular mortality in dialysis patients. The mechanisms are still...

Association between triglyceride glucose index, coronary artery calcification and multivessel coronary disease in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome
BackgroundMultivessel coronary disease (MVCD) is the common type of coronary artery disease in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Coronary artery...
