TUMOR-INDUCED OSTEOMALACIA IN A PATIENT WITH FGF23-AMPLIFIED LUNG ADENOCARCINOMA AND FGF23-DELETED SCLC: CASE REPORT

Tumor-Induced Osteomalacia in a Patient With FGF23-Amplified Lung Adenocarcinoma and FGF23-Deleted SCLC: Case Report

Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by ectopic fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23) production.We report a unique case of a 78-year-old female patient with refractory hypophosphatemia, ultimately diagnosed as TIO, in the context of two metastatic primary lung cancers: adenocarcinoma and SCLC.Molecular ana

Collapse of an axion scalar field

Abstract The manuscript deals with an interacting scalar field that mimics the evolution of the so-called axion scalar dark matter or axion like particles with ultra-light masses.It is discussed that such a scalar along with an ordinary fluid description can collapse under strong gravity.The end state of the collapse depends on how the axion intera
