A Rare Case of Severe Burns in a Pregnant Woman.
Cureus
December 2024
Department of Gynecology, Division of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Ljubljana University Medical Centre, Ljubljana, SVN.
Although burns are an extremely rare injury during pregnancy, they place a significant additional burden on the body, which is physiologically adapted to pregnancy and therefore limited in its ability to respond effectively to stress. Due to the low incidence of burns during pregnancy, the existing literature is scarce. Case reports are mostly from third-world countries, and there are no official guidelines or recommendations.

Department of Vascular Surgery, Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands.
Foot ulceration is a significant and growing health problem worldwide, particularly due to rises in diabetes mellitus (DM) and peripheral artery disease. The prediction of ulcer healing remains a major challenge. In patients with foot ulcers, medial arterial calcification (MAC) can be present as a result of concomitant DM or chronic kidney disease and is a prognostic factor for unfavorable outcome.

Department of Community Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Khartoum, Khartoum, Sudan.
Background: On April 15th, 2023, intense clashes involving heavy weapons and airstrikes occurred between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, leading to the displacement of almost 8.1 million people. The ongoing armed conflict in Sudan has led to a worsening humanitarian catastrophe, posing serious challenges to the country's health-care system and even its collapse.

BMC Infect Dis
January 2025
Medical Microbiology, Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust, Leeds, UK.
Background: Guidelines suggest treating fully penicillin-susceptible Enterococcus faecalis strains causing infective endocarditis with amoxicillin combined with gentamicin or ceftriaxone, but clinical evidence to support this practice is limited and monotherapy cohorts were excluded from studies. We describe antibiotic treatment, complications, and outcomes in patients with Enterococcus faecalis infective endocarditis, specifically comparing monotherapy versus combination therapy.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected cohort of patients with definite or possible infective endocarditis from 2 English centres between 2006 and 2021.
Performance of the pooled cohort equations and D:A:D risk scores among individuals with HIV in a global cardiovascular disease prevention trial: a cohort study leveraging data from REPRIEVE.
Lancet HIV
January 2025
Division of Cardiology, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, USA.
Background: Risk estimation is an essential component of cardiovascular disease prevention among people with HIV. We aimed to characterise how well atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk scores used in clinical guidelines perform among people with HIV globally.
Methods: In this prospective cohort study leveraging REPRIEVE data, we included participants aged 40-75 years, with low-to-moderate traditional cardiovascular risk, not taking statin therapy.
