A Death for Guillain-Barrè Syndrome After Receiving a COVID-19 Vaccine: A Case Report.

The virus SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) causes COVID-19, a potentially fatal disease. The COVID-19 vaccine is indicated for active immunization to prevent COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2. We reported the case of a 66-year-old woman with a medical history of hypertension and anxious-depressive syndrome who developed Guillain Barré Syndrome (GBS) 4 weeks after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.

A Randomized Comparison of Postprandial Glucose Excursion Using Inhaled Insulin Versus Rapid-Acting Analog Insulin in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Using Multiple Daily Injections of Insulin or Automated Insulin Delivery.

Objective: To compare postprandial glucose excursions following a bolus with inhaled technosphere insulin (TI) or subcutaneous rapid-acting analog (RAA) insulin.

Research Design And Methods: A meal challenge was completed by 122 adults with type 1 diabetes who were using multiple daily injections (MDI), a nonautomated pump, or automated insulin delivery (AID) and who were randomized to bolus with their usual RAA insulin (n = 61) or TI (n = 61).

Results: The primary outcome, the treatment group difference in area under the curve for glucose >180 mg/dL over 2 h, was less with TI versus RAA (adjusted difference -12 mg/dL, 95% CI -22 to -2, P = 0.

Preoperative Echocardiographic Unknown Valvopathy Evaluation in Elderly Patients Undergoing Neuraxial Anesthesia during Major Orthopedic Surgery: A Mono-Centric Retrospective Study.

The assessment of cardiac risk is challenging for elderly patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery with preoperative functional limitations. Currently, no specific cardiac risk scores are available for these critical patients. Echocardiography may be a reliable and safe instrument for assessing cardiac risks in this population.

Videolaryngoscopy versus Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy for Awake Tracheal Intubation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

: In recent years, videolaryngoscopy has increasingly been utilized as an alternative to fiberoptic bronchoscopy in awake intubation. Nonetheless, it remains uncertain whether videolaryngoscopy represents a viable substitute for fiberoptic bronchoscopy. We conducted this systematic review with a meta-analysis to compare videolaryngoscopy and fiberoptic bronchoscopy for awake intubation.

Out-of-Pocket Costs among Commercially Insured Individuals with type 2 Diabetes and Obesity: Comparison between Ozempic and Sleeve Gastrectomy.

Objective: Determine out-of-pocket (OOP) costs two years after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or initiating Ozempic for patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity.

Summary Background Data: Individuals with obesity and T2D have a variety of treatment options. Risks and benefits of these treatment options are becoming more well documented; however, the real-world patient costs of these options are not known.
