Methods: In a randomized crossover design, 14 MetS patients were assigned to two graded exercise tests conditions performed in the morning (between 7:00 and 9:00 a.m) and in the afternoon (between 4:00 and 5:00 p.
Article Synopsis
- Boerhaave's syndrome is a rare but serious condition characterized by the spontaneous rupture of the esophagus, often requiring early diagnosis for better patient outcomes.
- In a recent case, a 67-year-old woman with vomiting and hypertension developed septic shock, leading to the discovery of a 3-cm esophageal perforation; she ultimately died from multiorgan failure despite surgical attempts.
- Accurate diagnosis is challenging due to varied symptoms, but recognizing warning signs like thoracic pain and vomiting, as well as hydro-pneumothorax in imaging, is crucial for timely intervention to improve survival rates.
Introduction: Jejunogastric intussusception (JGI) is a rare but potentially lethal complication following gastrectomy or gastrojejunostomy surgeries. Diagnosis of this condition can be challenging due to its rarity and non-specific symptoms. This article presents a case report of a 60-year-old male with a history of trans mesocolic gastrojejunostomy who developed acute symptoms of JGI.
