A nonsense mutation in the Tripartite motif containing 8 (TRIM8) gene, mimicking collagenopathy.

Tripartite motif-containing 8 (TRIM8) gene mutations are associated with autosomal dominantly inherited neurorenal syndrome. The kidney manifestations range from nephrotic range proteinuria to nephrotic syndrome and kidney failure. The histopathology has been focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) in all reported cases.

Preoperative ultrasound mapping of the suprascapular and spinal accessory nerves: A surgeon's guide to precision.

Background: The aim of the study was to evaluate the accessibility and localization of spinal accessory and suprascapular nerves in the suprascapular region in healthy volunteers using ultrasonography.

Methods: One hundred healthy volunteers were included and the location of the spinal accessory nerve (SAN) and suprascapular nerve (SSN) was assessed in the right suprascapular region.

Findings: Seventy men and 30 women, (mean age 40.

"An Atypical Presentation of Tuberculosis Elbow" - A Case Report.

Introduction: Elbow joint is the most common affliction in upper limb tuberculosis (TB). A review of literature shows varying clinical presentations of TB in the elbow, with and without detectable primary foci.

Case Report: We report a rare case of post-traumatic reactivation of latent TB of elbow which mimicked septic arthritis, in a healthy adult who suffered an elbow contusion injury following an road traffic accident.

Exploring the Connections: Autophagy, Gut Microbiota, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Pathogenesis.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, represents a complex and growing global health issue with a multifaceted origin. This review delves into the intricate relationship between gut microbiota, autophagy, and the development of IBD. The gut microbiota, a diverse community of microorganisms, plays a vital role in maintaining gut health, while imbalances in this microbial community, known as dysbiosis, are linked to IBD.

A Paradigm Shift in Renal Cell Carcinoma: Recognizing Hypoglycaemia as a Significant Paraneoplastic Syndrome.

Recurrent hypoglycaemia is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome associated with several cancers, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Here we present a curious case of a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who had numerous hospitalisations due to recurrent hypoglycaemia. A well-defined lesion at the lower pole of the right kidney and bilateral pyelonephritis were found during imaging investigations.
