Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a connective tissue disease that affects arteries, causing necrotizing inflammation that can weaken the arterial walls, dilatation into aneurysms, and rupture in some cases. We present a case of a male with acute abdomen from aneurysmal rupture. The 48-year-old patient with a history of polysubstance use including cocaine and methamphetamines was admitted for acute hypoxic respiratory failure secondary to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia and treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics and steroids...

The increased concentration of lead (Pb) in soils is a serious threat to human beings and plants all over the world. Salinity stress is also a major issue across the globe, which limits crop productivity. The use of allelochemicals has become an effective strategy to mitigate the toxic effects of abiotic stresses. Sorghum is an important crop grown across the globe, and it also possesses an appreciably allelopathic potential. Therefore, this study was planned to determine the impacts of the sorghum water extract (SWE) on improving maize growth under Pb and salinity stress...

INTRODUCTION: The outcomes in advanced NSCLC have improved owing to the availability of more effective systemic and improved supportive care. This has increased the number of patients who seek treatment in the third line and beyond setting. We conducted this study to compare the quality of life (QoL), toxicity, and outcomes in patients receiving chemotherapy and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in this setting. METHODS: In this phase 3, randomized, open-label study, patients with stage III or IV NSCLC with disease progression on at least two prior lines of chemotherapy, with a life expectancy of at least 3 months, without prior EGFR TKI exposure, and stable brain metastases (if any) were included...

Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) occurs when latent varicella zoster virus reactivates in the ophthalmic division of the fifth cranial nerve (CNV1). HZO commonly affects elderly and immunocompromised patients. This disease is considered an ophthalmic emergency due to a wide range of associated ocular symptoms, including severe chronic pain and vision loss. HZO is typically a clinical diagnosis due to its classic presentation of a unilateral vesicular rash in the dermatomes corresponding to CNV1. Timely treatment is imperative to minimize ocular morbidity in HZO, given that ocular involvement is present in fifty percent of affected patients...

Hydralazine, a commonly prescribed medication for hypertension, has been associated, albeit rarely, with the development of vasculitis. The case presentation involves a 51-year-old female with diabetes and hypertension who presented with a distinctive rash, pancytopenia, and positive findings for various antibodies. A collaborative approach involving rheumatology, hematology, and dermatology was crucial in diagnosing leukocytoclastic vasculitis attributed to hydralazine. Prompt discontinuation of hydralazine and the initiation of a tailored treatment plan led to favorable outcomes...

PURPOSE: Varicoceles can be a source of elevated seminal oxidative stress (OS) and sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF). However, it remains unclear whether varicocele repair (VR) could reduce these parameters. This systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA) aims to investigate the impact of VR on SDF and seminal malondialdehyde (MDA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A literature search was performed in Scopus, PubMed, Ovid, Embase, and Cochrane databases. This SRMA included randomized controlled trials and observational studies reporting the pre- and postoperative levels of SDF and seminal OS in infertile men with clinical varicocele that underwent VR...

Measles, a member of the Paramyxoviridae family and the Morbillivirus genus, is an infectious disease caused by the measles virus that is extremely contagious and can be prevented through vaccination. When a person with the measles coughs or sneezes, the virus is disseminated by respiratory droplets. Normally, the appearance of measles symptoms takes 10-14 d following viral exposure. Conjunctivitis, a high temperature, a cough, a runny nose, and a distinctive rash are some of the symptoms. Despite the measles vaccination being available, it is still widespread worldwide...

Dengue fever is a prevalent viral disease caused by a single-stranded positive RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family, genus flavivirus. It is characterized by fever, headache, myalgias, leukopenia, rash, and plasma leakage, which may progress to compensated or uncompensated shock and multi-organ failure. Liver involvement is a common feature of Dengue fever and is usually manifested by nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, anorexia, hepatomegaly, and elevated serum transaminase levels. Severe disease is associated with laboratory parameters such as mean Platelet count < 20,000/mm, Aspartate Transaminase Levels >45 IU, and lymphocytes <1500...

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare disorder caused by a somatic mutation of PIGA (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class A) gene that leads to the destruction of blood cells. Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is a treatment option for PHN, but it can cause graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Long-term immunosuppression as a treatment of GVHD increases the risk for invasive fungal infections such as Candida krusei pneumonia...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common malignancy and the third primary cause of cancer-related mortalities caused by unhealthy diet, hectic lifestyle, and genetic damage. People aged ≥ 50 are more at risk for CRC. Nowadays, bioactive compounds from plants have been widely studied in preventing CRC because of their anticancer and antioxidant properties. Herein, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was used to extract the bioactive compounds of Pluchea indica (L.) leaves. The resultant total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) of P...

INTRODUCTION: Periprosthetic fractures (PPFs) around the hip joint are increasing in prevalence. In this collaborative study, we aimed to investigate the impact of patient demographics, fracture characteristics, and modes of management on in-hospital mortality of PPFs involving the hip. METHODS: Using a multi-centre cohort study design, we retrospectively identified adults presenting with a PPF around the hip over a 10-year period. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to study the independent correlation between patient, fracture, and treatment factors on mortality...
