Tuberculosis treatment spills the beans on Wilson's disease and more.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is an unwarranted problem and has been a scourge in the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) infection in general and children in particular. Usually, when the Antituberculosis treatment (ATT) regime is temporarily interrupted and modified, DILI subsides, and the whole treatment can be completed under supervision. We report a case of ATT-induced DILI not improving despite modification in the ATT regime, which ultimately led to the revealing of a yet unreported constellation of syndromes that included Wilson Disease, 46 XX gonadal dysgenesis, and Mayer Rokitansky Kuster Hauser (MRKH) Syndrome.

Auto-immune thyroiditis in SARS-CoV-2 exposed twins.

Objective: In the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, a spectrum of sequelae affecting different organs has been reported. Of these, the ones affecting the thyroid gland have been reported, especially in the adults.

Case Report: We present previously healthy twin adolescents with no history of thyroid disease, presenting with signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism after recovery from mild COVID-19 infection.

Role of Lipid Indices in the Assessment of Microvascular Risk in Type 2 Diabetic Retinopathy Patients.

Introduction: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains the leading cause of blindness and visual impairment in diabetic patients worldwide. Lipid indices (LI) such as atherogenic coefficient (AC), atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), and Castelli risk index (CRI) I and II may be associated with bio-physiological changes of DR even when traditional lipids are within normal limit. Hence, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the LI and examine the LI predictive role in assessing the microvascular risk in diabetes patients with and without retinopathy.
