Post-Coronavirus Disease Autoimmunity-associated Morvan's Syndrome.

A lot of autoimmune conditions have been found to be associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). There are multiple cases of autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases reported after the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Autoimmune neurological presentations have also been reported but are very rare.

A Study of Neurological Involvement in Dengue and Chikungunya Infection.

Introduction: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and dengue fever have been reported for recent epidemics worldwide, with varied clinical involvement. Chikungunya was first reported to affect the nervous system in the 1960s. The clinical profile of dengue with multi-organ involvement is varied with reported involvement of the central nervous system in some.

Fault in Our Genes: A Case of Pulmonary Thromboembolism in Young.

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) enzyme is one of the key enzymes involved in the metabolism of folate. Mutations in this enzyme can lead to a procoagulant state. We present a case of a 20-year-old male with no known comorbidities, who presented with fever and hemoptysis and was diagnosed as a case of pulmonary embolism.

Study the relationship between left atrial (LA) volume and left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction and LV hypertrophy: Correlate LA volume with cardiovascular risk factors.

Heart failure (HF) with normal ejection fraction - the isolated diastolic heart failure, depicts increasing prevalence and health care burden in recent times. Having less mortality rate compared to systolic heart failure but high morbidity, it is evolving as a major cardiac concern. With increasing clinical use of Left atrial volume (LAV) quantitation in clinical settings, LAV has emerged as an important independent predictor of cardiovascular outcome in HF with normal ejection fraction.

Glucose Monitoring in Critically Ill: Is Absence of "Stress Hyperglycemia" a Cause for Concern?

Aim: To study variations in glucose levels over 48 hours in critically ill patients by capillary blood glucose done on glucometer and compare the same in different categories of patients based on various diseases, as well as their correlation with sepsis and diabetes mellitus. To compare the same results in a subset of patients with the readings of continuous glucose monitoring.

Material And Methods: We studied 50 critically-ill patients (Age≥18 years), admitted in medical ICU (on mechanical ventilation/ionotropic supports/in sepsis) in a teaching hospital in semi-urban Maharashtra.
