Article Synopsis
- * A patient with a family history of prion disease showed early signs of FFI, like sleep issues and cognitive problems, yet standard diagnostic tests (MRI, CSF analysis, EEG) did not reveal typical changes associated with prion diseases.
- * Genetic testing confirmed the presence of a harmful mutation linked to FFI, leading to a swift decline in health and eventual death, highlighting the need for awareness among healthcare providers to enhance patient management and emotional support for those affected.
Importance: It is unclear whether cannabis use is associated with adverse health outcomes in patients with COVID-19 when accounting for known risk factors, including tobacco use.
Objective: To examine whether cannabis and tobacco use are associated with adverse health outcomes from COVID-19 in the context of other known risk factors.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective cohort study used electronic health record data from February 1, 2020, to January 31, 2022.
Background: Smartphone-based thermal imaging (SBTI) has been reported in the literature to be an easy-to-use, contactless, cost-friendly alternative to standard imaging modalities in identifying flap perforators, monitoring flap perfusion, and detecting flap failure. Our systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate SBTI's accuracy in perforator identification and secondarily evaluate SBTI's utility in flap perfusion monitoring as well as ability to predict flap compromise, failure, and survival.
Methods: Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines, a systematic review was performed using PubMed from inception to 2021.
