Article Synopsis
- - Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is an emergency caused by rapid breakdown of cancer cells from treatment, leading to release of harmful substances into the bloodstream, but spontaneous TLS (STLS) can occur without clear triggers.
- - A case study of a 74-year-old man showed STLS with complications like hypercalcemia and hyperuricemia after being diagnosed with multiple myeloma, illustrated by his symptoms and imaging findings.
- - The report emphasizes the importance of identifying high-risk patients for STLS, recognizing potential associated factors, and highlights necessary diagnostic and treatment strategies for clinicians to prevent severe complications.
: The lactate/pyruvate (LP) ratio has been studied as an alternative to serum lactate to determine clinical prognosis. Despite its clinical utility, there is a paucity of evidence evaluating the role of the L/P ratio in patients with sepsis. : We assessed the clinical utility of the L/P ratio in patients with sepsis.

However, few studies have quantitatively summarized the effect of botulinum toxin as well as its clinical significance. We aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy (based on pain and grip strength) and adverse events of botulinum toxin on lateral elbow tendinopathy.

Background: While second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) revolutionized treatment for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who developed a suboptimal response to imatinib, many patients in developing countries are fixed to the latter due to socioeconomic barriers. Despite this scenario, scarce information is available to evaluate the clinical prognosis of these patients.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis to compare the overall mortality of patients with CML who developed a suboptimal response to a standard dose of imatinib and were treated with either high-dose imatinib or a second-generation TKI.
Context: Polymorphisms in the gene encoding the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) are associated with type 2 diabetes but their effects on incretin levels remain unclear.
Objective: We evaluated the physiologic and hormonal effects of GLP1R genotypes before and after interventions that influence glucose physiology.
Design: Pharmacogenetic study conducted at 3 academic centers in Boston, Massachusetts.
