In Southeast Asia, the higher prevalence of Intestinal tuberculosis (TB) challenges the diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) due to their overlapping symptoms. This case involves a 25-year-old male misdiagnosed with Intestinal tuberculosis presenting with abdominal pain, weight loss, and bowel ulceration. Recurrence after anti-tubercular therapy led to further investigation paving to right hemicolectomy and histopathological analysis confirming Crohn's disease.

- Humidity significantly affects the behavior of terrestrial organisms, but how they sense and respond to it is not well understood.
- A new dynamic humidity arena tracks the movements of insects and adjusts humidity in real-time, allowing for the study of their preferences under different conditions.
- Research using this arena reveals that thirsty, hungry fruit flies prefer higher humidity levels, while flies that are well-fed show no preference, demonstrating how hydration status influences behavior and opening the door for more studies on how insects sense humidity.

Bullous systemic lupus erythematous (BSLE) is a very rare autoimmune disease characterized by vesiculobullous lesions on mostly sun-exposed areas of skin. We present a case of a 36-year-old female who developed vesiculobullous lesions after previously having poorly controlled lupus. Dapsone was added to her treatment plan, and the lesions healed in a few weeks without scarring or pigmentation.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus rarely occurs without coexisting diseases. With an increasing elder population and longevity, elder adults have a higher prevalence of chronic morbidity, thus increasing the chances of experiencing more than one non-communicable chronic condition, where the impact of multimorbidity is greater than the cumulative effect of the single condition.
