Transformation of a long-standing phosphaturic tumor-inducing osteomalacia into malignancy.

Key Clinical Message: Tumor-induced osteomalacia is a paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by renal phosphate wasting and deranged bone turnover. Clinicians should consider tumor-induced osteomalacia in unexplained hypophosphatemia and investigate for underlying tumors.

Abstract: Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by renal phosphate wasting, which leads to deranged bone turnover.

A novel mutation c.457C > T p.Q153 in the HMBS gene in a Mexican woman with acute intermittent porphyria.

Key Clinical Message: The detection of a novel HMBS gene mutation (c.457C > T) in a Mexican woman with acute intermittent porphyria underscores the importance of expanding genetic analyses in diverse populations to improve diagnosis, management, and knowledge of the disease's clinical implications.

Abstract: Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a deficiency in the enzymatic activity of porphobilinogen deaminase (HMBS), resulting in the accumulation of toxic heme metabolites.

Failing in reverse: a case report of reverse Takotsubo syndrome complicating peripartum.

Background: Pregnancy and the peripartum are states of stress for the cardiovascular system. These conditions can trigger different cardiomyopathies. Among these, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) has been increasingly recognized as a cause of transient left ventricular dysfunction associated with pregnancy.

Echocardiographic manifestations during the first 3 months after an episode of COVID-19 and their relationship with disease severity and persistence of symptoms.

Background: Cardiovascular manifestations in patients with COVID-19 are associated with dire outcomes. Long COVID syndrome is the persistence of symptoms after acute disease and is found in up to 40% of subjects. There is little information regarding subacute echocardiographic manifestations after COVID-19, and no study has included a Mexican mestizo population.

Spotted Fever: An Undercover Cause of Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in the Immediate Postpartum.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is characterized by a dysregulated activation of the immune system that causes fever, cytopenias, organomegalies, and hemophagocytosis. There are infectious, neoplastic, rheumatologic, and miscellaneous causes. Rickettsioses are a neglected cause of HLH.

Effect of Antiviral Agents on Atherosclerosis in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C.

Background: Chronic hepatitis C is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis and is associated with cardiovascular events. Mechanisms include inflammatory cytokines, endothelial dysfunction, and increased oxidative stress.

Aim Of The Study: The objective was to evaluate the response of carotid atherosclerosis to treatment with direct-antiviral agents.

Sacroilitis paraneoplásica: presentación inusual de leucemia linfoblástica aguda.

La sacroilitis es una manifestación poco común de neoplasias hematológicas. Reportamos el caso de una mujer de 40 años que presentó un cuadro de 1 mes de evolución con fiebre y sacroilitis simulando espondiloartritis, acompañado de anemia, hepatomegalia y elevación de marcadores inflamatorios. El abordaje descartó infecciones y causas inflamatorias de dolor sacroilíaco.

Case Report: Rhabdomyolysis in a Patient with COVID-19: A Proposed Diagnostic-Therapeutic Algorithm.

COVID-19 represents the greatest health challenge of modern years. The spectrum of illness comprises respiratory and non-respiratory manifestations. We report the case of an adult man with COVID-19 who presented with rhabdomyolysis as a principal extrapulmonary manifestation.

Neurosarcoidosis Presentation as Adipsic Diabetes Insipidus Secondary to a Pituitary Stalk Lesion and Association with Anti-NMDA Receptor Antibodies.

Sarcoidosis is a multisystemic inflammatory disease of unknown cause. It is characterized by the presence of noncaseating granuloma on a biopsy specimen. Clinical presentation varies across case report series with myriad of symptoms ranging from fever, respiratory symptoms, and skin lesions, or atypical symptoms like heart block or neurological symptoms.

[Prevalence of intraepithelial lesion in cervical screening cytology in a First-level Care Unit].

Background: Cervical cancer represents the second leading cause of malignant neoplasm mortality in women globally. Cervical cytology is the most important screening study. It is therefore of interest to know the prevalence of cytological alterations in the Mexican population.
