A Rare Case of Primary Anorectal Hodgkin Lymphoma in an HIV-Positive Patient: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Lymphoma is a well-known complication related to HIV infection; of these, non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is the most common subtype with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) occurring less frequently. We present a rare case of a 35-year-old male with a history of HIV/AIDS well-controlled on antiretroviral therapy (ART) with an atypical HL presentation. He arrived at the emergency department with rectal bleeding, 30-pound unintentional weight loss, and subjective fever.

Improving social cognition in schizophrenia: a pilot intervention combining computerized social cognition training with cognitive remediation.

Background: Social cognition is significantly impaired in schizophrenia and contributes to poor community functioning. This study examined whether cognitive remediation (CR; COGPACK), shown to improve neurocognition, improves an integral component of social cognition, emotion perception, compared with CR combined with a computerized Emotion Perception intervention (Mind Reading: Interactive Guide to Emotions [MRIGE]).

Methods: 59 stable schizophrenia or schizoaffective predominantly inpatients were randomized to either CR (N=27) alone or CR+MRIGE (N=32) for 12 weeks.

Relationship between metabolic syndrome and cognition in patients with schizophrenia.

Background: The metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cognitive impairments are common in schizophrenia. Both are associated with poor outcomes, which have received increasing medical and mental health attention. Whether MetS is associated with impaired cognitive functions in schizophrenia has not been thoroughly addressed.
