Pulmonary Hypertension: Classification and Pathogenesis01:30

Pulmonary Hypertension: Classification and Pathogenesis

669
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe health condition in which the mean pulmonary arterial pressure increases to 25 mmHg or more, even when the body is at rest. This high pressure in the blood vessels that transport blood from the heart to the lungs can cause various symptoms, including shortness of breath, can lead to right heart failure, and significantly affect the overall quality of life.
There are various classifications for PH, each relating to different underlying causes and also...

Force Classification01:22

Force Classification

2.5K
Forces play a crucial role in the study of physics and engineering. They are essential in describing the motion, behavior, and equilibrium of objects in the physical world. Forces can be classified based on their origin, type, and direction of action.
Contact and non-contact forces are two of the most widely used categories of forces. As the name suggests, contact forces require physical contact between two objects to act upon each other. Examples of contact forces include frictional,...

Classification of Neurotransmitters01:30

Classification of Neurotransmitters

5.4K
Neurotransmitters play a crucial role in the communication between neurons in the autonomic nervous system. Neurons in the autonomic nervous system can be cholinergic or adrenergic depending on the neurotransmitters synthesized. Cholinergic neurons use acetylcholine as their primary neurotransmitter. This includes all the preganglionic fibers of the sympathetic and pre- and postganglionic fibers of the parasympathetic nervous systems. In addition, neurons of the somatic nervous system also use...

Classification of Leukocytes01:30

Classification of Leukocytes

6.1K
Leukocytes are classified into two groups based on the presence or absence of cytoplasmic granules. Granular leukocytes, which contain granules, belong to the myeloid lineage and are divided into three subtypes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. These cells are roughly spherical and characterized by the granules in their cytoplasm.
Neutrophils are the most abundant type of granular leukocytes, comprising 50-70% of all leukocytes. They feature small, evenly distributed granules and a...

Classification of Illness01:17

Classification of Illness

8.9K
The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

Classification of Bones01:18

Classification of Bones

10.1K
The bones of the human skeletal system are of varied shapes, sizes, and functions. They can be classified based on their shape and function into four major classes: long bones, short bones, flat bones, and irregular bones. Some classifications include a fifth type, the sesamoid bones, as a separate class, whereas others categorize them under short bones.
Long and Short Bones
The appendicular skeleton, particularly the upper and lower limbs, is primarily made of long and short bones. The...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Pulmonary Medicine
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Current classifications for pulmonary metastases vary between Russian and international literature.
  • Standardized staging is crucial for consistent research and treatment evaluation in oncology.
  • Accurate classification aids in understanding the extent of metastatic disease in the lungs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and analyze existing pulmonary metastases classification systems.
  • To propose a novel staging variant for pulmonary metastases.
  • To facilitate objective evaluation of treatment efficacy for lung metastases.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of current Russian and foreign literature on pulmonary metastases classification.
  • Development of a proposed staging system for pulmonary metastases.
  • Classification based on quantitative and regional spread of metastatic disease.

Main Results:

  • The study highlights the need for a refined classification system for pulmonary metastases.
  • A proposed staging variant considers both the amount and location of lung metastases.
  • This classification aims to create homogeneous patient subgroups for clinical trials.

Conclusions:

  • Developing a standardized pulmonary metastases classification is essential for clinical research.
  • The proposed classification can improve the objectivity of results from surgical and local treatments.
  • Homogeneous patient stratification will enhance the reliability of data from prospective randomized trials.
