Paraneoplastic movement disorder due to suspected metastatic Leiomyosarcoma of tongue: A case report.

Paraneoplastic movement disorders, though rare, can be the initial symptoms of malignancies like leiomyosarcoma, as in our case. Clinicians should keep malignancies in their differential diagnosis in cases of unexplained movement abnormalities.

Hypokalemic Paralysis Revealing Primary Sjogren's Syndrome: A Case Report.

Unlabelled: Sjogren's syndrome is a rare chronic autoimmune disease characterised by dry eyes and dry mouth due to autoimmune destruction of the lacrimal and salivary glands, which can occur concurrently with other autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, or thyroiditis. It can lead to renal complications such as interstitial nephritis and glomerulonephritis, with distal/ type 1 renal tubular acidosis which may result in life-threatening electrolyte imbalance. We present a case of a 35-year-old female who presented with complaints of multiple episodes of muscle weakness.

Danazol for the Treatment of Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Systematic Review.

Purpose To study the potential utility of danazol for treating patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, with a focus on efficacy and adverse effects (AEs). Methods MEDLINE In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Scopus were searched for relevant publications from inception June 1, 1950, until June 28, 2022. The studies were screened by title and abstract, followed by full-text screening.

The association of multiple sclerosis with thyroid disease: A meta-analysis.

Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease with T-cell-mediated inflammation showing different clinical and pathological phenotypes. The relationship between MS and thyroid diseases has been debated, with varying research outcomes. This meta-analysis aims to clarify the association between different thyroid diseases and MS.

Teenager with acute psychosis due to non-paraneoplastic anti-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor encephalitis with a successful recovery: A case report.

Introduction: Anti NMDAR encephalitis is a neuropsychiatric syndromic disease caused by an immunological response. Acute behavioral changes, psychosis, and catatonia are common clinical manifestations, are seizures, amnesia, speech difficulties, dyskinesia, and autonomic dysregulation.

Case Presentation: We discuss the case of a 14-year-old girl who had psychotic symptoms and tested positive for anti-NMDAR antibodies.

Antisynthetase syndrome and interstitial lung disease: A case report.

Introduction: Myositis, Raynaud's phenomenon, fever, interstitial lung disease, mechanic's hands, and arthropathy are symptoms of Antisynthetase Syndrome (ASS), which is defined by the development of antibodies against t-ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthetase, particularly anti-Jo-1.

Case Presentation: The case is about 29 years female with 1 month history of non-productive cough and dyspnea on exertion which was later diagnosed as ASS.

Discussion: The diagnosis of an inflammatory myopathy is based on clinical findings such as subacute development of symmetrical muscle weakness and signs such as laboratory investigations revealing skeletal muscle inflammation.

Endothelium, Platelets, and Coagulation Factors as the Three Vital Components for Diagnosing Bleeding Disorders: A Simplified Perspective with Clinical Relevance.

Bleeding disorders are a major group of hematological disorders, which are highly prevalent in the world. Excessive bleeding can result in serious consequences including hypoperfusion and cardiac arrest. The body has its selfmechanism to control excessive bleeding which is termed hemostasis.

Ataxia due to vitamin E deficiency: A case report and updated review.

Ataxia with vitamin E deficiency (AVED) is a rare cause of hereditary ataxia in developing countries with unknown prevalence. AVED is an autosomal-recessive disorder, which is characterized by ataxia, areflexia, and proprioceptive and vibratory sensory loss. The disease is characterized clinically by symptoms with often resembling to those of Friedreich ataxia (FRDA).

CT-IGFBP-4 as a Predictive Novel Biomarker of Ischemic Cardiovascular Events and Mortality: A Systematic Review.

Methods: The electronic databases PubMed, medRxiv, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar were searched for relevant literature from inception to the 10 of December, 2021. Thus, retrieved literature was screened by title and abstract, followed by full-text screening based on the eligibility criteria. The risk of bias was accessed using the quality in prognostic studies (QUIPSs) tool.

Impact of hospital pharmacist-delivered individualised pharmaceutical service intervention on clinical and patient-reported outcomes in patients with hypertension: a randomised controlled trial.

Objectives: Patients with hypertension in Nepal are often known to have poor medication adherence and quality of life. This randomised controlled trial aimed to evaluate the impact of a hospital pharmacist-delivered individualised pharmaceutical service (P-DIPS) intervention on blood pressure, medication adherence and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among patients with hypertension in a hospital setting in Nepal.

Methods: In an open trial, 56 adult patients with hypertension who had been receiving antihypertensive medication for ≥6 months were randomly allocated to a control group (n=28) which received the usual care and an intervention group (n=28) which received a P-DIPS along with the usual care.

Antimalarial and anticancer properties of artesunate and other artemisinins: current development.

This review provides a recent perspective of artesunate and other artemisinins as antimalarial drugs and their uses in cancer therapy. Artesunate is an artemisinin derivative. Artemisinin is extracted from the plant Artemisinin and its derivatives have been the most useful drug for malarial treatment in human history.
