Inhalation Pneumonitis Caused by Nebulized Hydrogen Peroxide.

Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical commonly used as a household antiseptic for cleaning and disinfecting. No cases of acute hydrogen peroxide inhalation-induced lung injury are previously described. We present a case of acute chemical pneumonitis caused by mixing hydrogen peroxide in a nighttime continuous positive airway pressure device's humidifier used for obstructive sleep apnea to prevent COVID-19 infection.

Factors associated with improved outcome of inhaled corticosteroid use in COVID-19: A single institutional study.

Asthmatics seem less prone to adverse outcomes in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and some data shows that inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are protective. We gathered data on anecdotal ICS and outcomes of patients hospitalized with COVID-19, given there is literature supporting ICS may reduce risk of severe infection. In addition, we fill gaps in current literature evaluating Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) as a risk assessment tool for COVID-19.

Oculomotor Nerve Palsy as a Manifestation of Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura: A Case Report.

Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is caused by alterations in the immune system resulting in platelet destruction. It often manifests clinically with bleeding or on routine lab work revealing thrombocytopenia in asymptomatic individuals. Neurologic manifestations of this condition are sparsely documented in the literature.
