When a curable cancer becomes an emergency: understanding early death in metastatic germ cell tumours.
Metastatic testicular germ cell tumours are highly curable, yet a small subgroup of patients deteriorates within days of treatment initiation. Our study focuses on these “super-high-risk” patients, in whom early recognition and rapid supportive care may determine survival.
A Journey Through Birth Defects: From Trainee to Pediatrician’s Perspective
In our context, lack of consistent documentation makes it difficult to fully understand the true burden of birth defects. This realization, together with my early clinical experiences in neonatology, motivated me to explore this field more deeply, not only as a clinician but also as a researcher.
The Greatest Icon of Palaeontology: In Deconstruction
The aim of the article published in Human Arenas is not to “dethrone” T. rex, but to expose some of the complex processes that, in a particular case, sustained its “coronation”.
Why Are There Fewer Tropical Cyclones in the Southern Hemisphere?
