Abstract Intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumors (IMMT) carrying an EWSR1-CREB gene family fusion are extremely rare and have only been identified in ten relatively recent reported cases. There is some question as to whether this is a novel entity, or a myxoid variant of angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH), given certain histopathological similarities. Despite these similarities, the increasing number of cases reported appear to demonstrate clear histological differences that indicate IMMTs are a distinct and novel entity. Previous reports have focused on histological analysis but have lacked detailed long-term clinical follow-up and recommendations regarding treatment approach. In this case, we describe a 48-year-old female who presented with a left intraventricular mass that was identified histologically as an IMMT with an EWSR1-ATF1 gene fusion. Following initial resection, the tumor demonstrated local recurrence. Repeat resection was performed followed by immediate demonstration of local, as well as distant, tumor recurrence. Subsequent histological analysis of the tumor demonstrated a myxoid mesenchymal tumor clearly distinct from AFH. Fractionated stereotactic radiation therapy was administered following the second resection and tumor control was achieved at 1 year. This case is particularly remarkable as it is only the second reported IMMT case to occur in a middle-aged adult, with all other cases occurring in children or young adults. The two middle-aged adult cases share striking similarities in clinical presentation, including a history of breast cancer. Our findings indicate that an intracranial myxoid mesenchymal tumor is a novel and rare entity that may demonstrate rapid local and distant recurrence. Given the aggressive recurrence seen with the presented case, we recommend the treatment plan to be surgical resection followed by adjuvant radiation therapy to maintain tumor control.

This work examined the effects of age on salt appetite measured in the form of daily saline (i.e., 0.3 M NaCl) drinking in response to administration of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA; 5 mg/kg body wt) using young (4 mo), “middle-aged” adult (12 mo), and old (30 mo) male Brown Norway rats. Water and sodium intakes, excretions, and balances were determined daily. The salt appetite response was age dependent with “middle-aged” rats ingesting the most saline solution followed in order by young and then old rats. While old rats drank the least saline solution, the amounts of saline ingested still were copious and comprise an unambiguous demonstration of salt appetite in old rats. Middle-aged rats had the highest saline preference ratios of the groups under baseline conditions and throughout testing consistent with an increased avidity for sodium taste. There were age differences in renal handling of water and sodium that were consistent with a renal contribution to the greater saline intakes by middle-aged rats. There was evidence of impaired renal function in old rats, but this did not account for the reduced saline intakes of the oldest rats.

Contact and relationship quality between adult children and aging parents are two widely used indicators of intergenerational solidarity and are often assumed to be positively correlated. However, the association between the two may depend on characteristics of the parent involved. Using Family Exchanges Study Wave 1, this study assessed whether parental difficulties—measured as functional limitations and life problems—and gender moderated the associations between middle-aged adults’ contact and relationship quality with their parents. We found that more frequent email or phone contact was associated with worse relationship quality for fathers who had functional limitations. For life problems, however, more contact was not related to relationship quality for fathers with life problems. The associations did not differ by mother’s difficulties. These results suggest that frequent contact between middle-aged adult children and aging parents does not uniformly reflect better relationship quality but rather depends on parents’ characteristics.
