    Abstract The iliac vein is an extremely rare site of metastasis for extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (ESMC). Involvement of the veins usually leads to an extremely dismal prognosis. Here, we report a 50-year-old patient with retroperitoneal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma and initial metastasis to the iliac bone, which further progressed to involve the iliac vein. In this study, we reviewed the major characteristics of ESMC and the previously reported cases, considering the rarity of these tumors.

    Abstract Background: Prior studies have reported that curcumin is inversely associated with reduced markers of atherosclerosis risk, including carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT). This study was designed to assess the effects of curcumin on CIMT and pulse wave velocity (PWV) in diabetic hemodialysis (HD) patients.
    Methods: This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial was conducted on 39 diabetic HD patients. People were assigned to receive curcumin or placebo (starch) for 24 weeks. Individuals in the curcumin group (
    Results: After 24 weeks of intervention, curcumin intake did not affect mean levels of left (
    Conclusions: Curcumin intake did not affect mean levels of left and right CIMT and maximum levels of left and right CIMT, PWV, and CRP levels compared to the placebo. Additionally, within-group difference demonstrated a significant reduction in mean levels of PWV in the curcumin group.This trial was registered at www.irct.ir as http://www.irct.ir: IRCT20200527047584N1.

    Abstract Spreading swiftly across the borders and over the seas, severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2), as causative pathogen of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is currently the main global public health concern. "Cannonball appearance," as a rare and yet underrated CT feature of COVID-19 pneumonia, has been typically linked to certain hematogenous pulmonary metastases and some inflammatory/infection conditions, including tuberculosis, but no other viral or atypical pneumonia. Cannonball appearance can bring diagnostic dilemmas and difficulties in monitoring treatment response in patients with or suspicious for hematogenous pulmonary metastasis. Hereby, we report two cases of COVID-19 delta variant-induced pneumonia manifesting unusually in chest CT scan with cannonball appearance.

    Abstract Purpose: This study aimed at evaluating the value of uterine biophysical profile (UBP) scoring to predict the pregnancy rate after IUI.
    Methods: This prospective study was carried out on 85 women who were referred to our tertiary teaching center with infertility of male factor or unknown etiology infertility in 2018. To measure the uterine biophysical criteria, transvaginal ultrasonography (TVS) was performed on the day of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (B-hCG) injection, and the results were evaluated based on positive B-hCG.
    Results: 85 patients were included with a mean age of 30 years; of those 12 (14.1%) were able to conceive. UBP (p = 0.151) and it's parameters (including endometrial thickness, number of endometrial layers, myometrial echogenicity, uterine artery pulsatility index, myometrial blood flow internal to arcuate vessels, endometrial blood flow in the third zone of endometrium, myometrial contraction frequency, and ovarian follicle (OF) size [p = 0.05, 0.89, 0.59, 0.79, 1, 1, 0.59, and 0.77, respectively]) were not significantly associated with pregnancy rate. 91.7% of the cases with positive pregnancy test results, had a UBP score of > 13; however, UBP score was not meaningfully associated with IUI treatment success rate (p = 0.15).
    Conclusions: UBP scoring system seems to need more data for external validation, or it might require modifications before implementation, as it may cause false reassurance.

    Abstract Plasma cell dyscrasias are estimated to newly affect almost 40,000 people in 2022. They fall on a spectrum of diseases ranging from relatively benign to malignant, the malignant end of the spectrum being multiple myeloma (MM). The International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) has traditionally outlined the diagnostic criteria and therapeutic management of MM. In the last two decades, novel imaging techniques have been employed for MM to provide more information that can guide not only diagnosis and staging, but also treatment efficacy. These imaging techniques, due to their low invasiveness and high reliability, have gained significant clinical attention and have already changed the clinical practice. The development of functional MRI sequences such as diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) or intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) has made the functional assessment of lesions feasible. Moreover, the growing availability of positron emission tomography (PET)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners is leading to the potential combination of sensitive anatomical and functional information in a single step. This paper provides an organized framework for evaluating the benefits and challenges of novel and more functional imaging techniques used for the management of patients with plasma cell dyscrasias, notably MM.

    Abstract Purpose: This study aimed to assess the correlation between lung ultrasound (LUS) and computed tomography (CT) findings and the predictability of LUS scores to anticipate disease characteristics, lab data, clinical severity, and mortality in patients with COVID-19.
    Material and methods: Fifty consecutive hospitalized PCR-confirmed COVID-19 patients who underwent chest CT scan and LUS on the first day of admission were enrolled. The LUS score was calculated based on the presence, severity, and distribution of parenchymal abnormalities in 14 regions.
    Results: The participants' mean age was 54.60 ± 19.93 years, and 26 (52%) were female. All patients had CT and LUS findings typical of COVID-19. The mean value of CT and LUS severity scores were 11.80 ± 3.89 (ranging from 2 to 20) and 13.74 ± 6.43 (ranging from 1 to 29), respectively. The LUS score was significantly higher in females (
    Conclusions: Our results suggested that LUS can be used as a valuable tool for detecting COVID-19 pneumonia and determining high-risk hospitalized patients, helping to triage and stratify high-risk patients, which waives the need to undertake irradiating chest CT and reduces the burden of overworked CT department staff.

    Abstract Aim of the work: To assess the clinical manifestations, imaging findings and outcomes of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in patients with rheumatic diseases.
    Patients and methods: In a three-center study, patients with rheumatic diseases who developed COVID-19 were included. Patients were classified into two groups, i) inflammatory arthritis including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA) and undifferentiated arthritis, ii) connective tissue diseases (CTDs) including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), vasculitis and others. COVID-19 outcomes were assessed based on chest computed tomography severity score (CT-ss), the level of care, the number of patients who died and flare of underlying rheumatic disease.
    Results: One hundred ninety-six patients with a mean age of 47.9 ± 15.1 years, 73.5% female, were included. Underlying rheumatic diseases were RA (57.7%), SLE and other CTDs (17.9%), SpA (11.2%), vasculitis (11.2%) and undifferentiated arthritis (2%). Myalgia, malaise and fever were the most common clinical manifestations of COVID-19. Pneumonia on computerized tomography (CT), hospitalization, admission in intensive care unit and need to mechanical ventilation were observed in 75.5, 37.2%, 10.7% and 6.6% of patients, respectively. Treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticoids, diabetes and underlying pulmonary disease were predictors of moderate to severe pneumonia and hospitalization. Fifteen (7.6%) patients died. Flare of underlying rheumatic disease occurred in 16.3% of patients. Flare of disease in patients with CTDs was significantly more than other rheumatic diseases.
    Conclusions: In rheumatic patients, treatment with NSAIDs or prednisolone, diabetes and pulmonary disease are risk factors of moderate to high CT-ss and hospitalization during COVID-19.
