Quadriceps Muscle Layer Thickness and its association with frailty in critically ill patients: A prospective observational study.

Background: Frailty is a well-recognized clinical entity known to influence the outcomes of critically ill patients. Muscle ultrasound, particularly Quadriceps Muscle Layer Thickness (QMLT), assesses muscle mass, which is a key component determining frailty. However, no studies have assessed the association between frailty and QMLT.

Unusual presentation of Sjogren's syndrome during pregnancy: a case report.

Background: Pregnancy imposes significant physiological changes, including alterations in electrolyte balance and renal function. This is especially important because certain disorders might worsen and make people more susceptible to electrolyte abnormalities. One such condition is Sjogren's syndrome (SS), an autoimmune disease that can cause distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA).
