"For us, whatever we do is wrong, until we do something really good": a qualitative study of the lived experiences of doctors from minority ethnic backgrounds in Scotland.

Objectives: To evaluate the lived experiences of doctors from minority ethnic (ME) backgrounds during postgraduate medical training, in particular their experiences of discrimination (if any); any impact of intersectionality and perceptions on how ME doctors may be better supported in their learning and working environments.

Design: This was a qualitative study grounded in social constructivism, using semi-structured online individual interviews as the data collection method and an exploratory thematic analysis process.

Setting: Participants were recruited from postgraduate specialist medical training programmes within one Deanery (Scotland Deanery) in the UK.

Punctate inner choroidopathy in common variable immunodeficiency associated with a pathogenic variant in the tumour necrosis factor receptor superfamily 13b (TNFRSF13B) gene - Case report and review of the literature.

Background: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) has been recognised as the most common primary immunodeficiency in adulthood, and is characterised by increased susceptibility to infection, autoimmunity and increased risk of malignancies. Although ocular manifestations are not common in CVID, rare associated inflammatory eye conditions have been reported including submacular choroiditis.

Objective: To report a case of punctate inner choroidopathy in a patient with common variable immunodeficiency.

Resistant Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria - A Case Series Narrative Review of Treatment Options.

Background: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) can be extremely debilitating to the patient and challenging for the treating clinician. The National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) in the United Kingdom (UK) recommendation of omalizumab for patients who fail to respond to high-dose anti-histamines has improved treatment options and quality of life. However, there is still lack of clear guidelines for treatment of patients resistant to standard and anti-IgE therapies.

Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 antibody point of care devices in the laboratory and clinical setting.

SARS-CoV-2 antibody tests have been marketed to diagnose previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and as a test of immune status. There is a lack of evidence on the performance and clinical utility of these tests. We aimed to carry out an evaluation of 14 point of care (POC) SARS-CoV-2 antibody tests.

T-cell immunodeficiency in CHARGE syndrome.

Unlabelled: CHARGE syndrome comprises coloboma of the eye, heart defects, choanal atresia, growth and developmental retardation, genitourinary anomalies and ear and hearing defects. The association between CHARGE syndrome and T-cell immunodeficiency is recognized, but has not been reported widely in the literature. We report four patients meeting the diagnostic criteria for CHARGE syndrome, who had moderate or severe T-cell lymphopenia complicated by infections.
