Colchicine: A Dual Therapeutic Target for Trichinellosis.

Purpose: Trichinellosis affects around 11 million people globally. Treatments for this medical condition are limited by adverse effects and resistance, emphasising the importance of effective and safe therapies. Consequentially, we sought to study colchicine's synergistic effects with atorvastatin or acetazolamide in the treatment of Trichinella spiralis (T.

Functional neurological disorder treated with psychoeducation: A case report.

Rationale: Psychogenic tremor (PT) is the most common subtype of psychogenic movement disorder, characterized by involuntary movement, and is usually related to occupational injuries or accidents. Psychogenic movement disorder falls under the category of functional neurological disorders, which are diagnosed based on the criteria outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.

Patient Concerns: A 25-year-old Saudi male with a history of recurrent superior ventricular tachycardia presented to the emergency department with tremors affecting all his extremities for 8 days.

Severe Left Main Coronary Artery Stenosis as the First Finding in Newly Diagnosed Chronic Coronary Syndrome: Incidence and Clinical Predictors.

Severe left main coronary artery (LMCA) lesions (≥50% stenosis) portend a poor prognosis and require urgent revascularization. In this study, we identified the incidence and clinical predictors of severe LMCA stenosis in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who had undergone coronary angiography for the first time. Using a nationwide database registry, all the patients with CCS who had undergone coronary angiography were included.

Infectious keratitis following photorefractive keratectomy: a 13-year study at a tertiary center.

Introduction: Infectious keratitis is a rare but devastating complication following photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) that may lead to visual impairment. This study assessed the clinical features, treatment strategies, and outcomes of post-PRK infectious keratitis.

Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on patients with post-PRK infectious keratitis presenting to Khalili Hospital, Shiraz, Iran, from June 2011 to March 2024.

Photochemical Formation of Trifluoroacetic Acid: Mechanistic Insights into a Fluoxetine-Related Aryl-CF Compound.

Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a ubiquitous environmental contaminant; however, its sources are poorly constrained. One understudied source is from the photochemical reactions of aromatic compounds containing -CF moieties (aryl-CF) including many pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Here, we studied the aqueous photochemistry of 4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (4-TFMP), a known transformation product of the pharmaceutical fluoxetine.
