Article Synopsis
- Primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia (PBMAH) is a rare condition that causes Cushing syndrome (CS) and can be challenging to diagnose, making up less than 2% of CS cases.
- The case involves a 52-year-old woman experiencing multiple symptoms including fever, fatigue, and bruising, leading to an eventual diagnosis of PBMAH after lab tests and an abdominal CT scan showed increased cortisol levels and adrenal masses.
- Although the patient underwent surgery to remove one adrenal gland and her symptoms improved, she continues to rely on glucocorticoid therapy a year later, highlighting the need for more research on effective treatment options for PBMAH.
Background: Limb ischemia is a severe vascular condition that can lead to critical complications, endangering both limbs and lives. The goal of this research was to explore the role of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in limb ischemia.
Methods: From inception to June 8, 2022, PubMed/MEDLINE, Institute for Scientific Information Web of Science, and Scopus were searched for articles comparing NLR in limb ischemia to healthy individuals.
