Rhabdomyolysis can occur after overuse of or injury to any muscle. This results in cell membrane compromise and the escape of cellular contents into the extracellular fluid. After strenuous exercise, a small amount of rhabdomyolysis normally occurs but is usually self-limited and does not progress to compartment syndrome. Two cases diagnosed as supraspinatus compartment syndrome have been reported in the literature; however, the clinical presentation was similar to the two cases with rhabdomyolysis presented here.

Bacillus cereus is a common pathogen responsible for gastrointestinal and other complicated disorders, yet epidemiological data and public health measures remain scarce. To bridge these gaps, a bilingual search spaning 50 years identified 266 relevant studies on global B. cereus infection, encompassing 6,135 cases.

We present a rare case of a patient with co-occurring exercise-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) and rhabdomyolysis. A 67-year-old man was referred to our department with AKI. Five days before referral, the patient had sudden-onset loin pain while banging and kicking on a door in a holding cell at a police station.

Objectives: This study focuses on mild-to-moderate severity cases to examine the triggers initiating kidney injury.
Materials: Patients aged ≥18 years with suspected heat-related illnesses at the Juntendo University Hospital Emergency and Primary Care Center between July and September 2020 and June and August 2022 were included.
Methods: Blood samples were obtained during their visit, and the patients were categorized into two groups based on their cystatin-based estimated GFR (eGFRcys) values: a kidney injury group (eGFRcys < 60 mL/min/1.
Rosuvastatin, a commonly prescribed lipid-lowering medication for primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease, is generally considered safe with associated mortality benefits. Despite its overall safety profile, the drug is not without side effects. Statin-induced myopathy, a known complication, can manifest in 10-25% of cases, while more uncommon complications such as rhabdomyolysis occur in less than 0.

: Bupropion, an atypical antidepressant and smoking cessation aid, is known for its potential to cause seizures, cardiotoxicity and neurotoxicity in overdose scenarios. However, overdoses may present variably, and muscular and renal complications, such as rhabdomyolysis and acute kidney injury (AKI), can emerge in unexpected ways. Previous reports have shown that severe overdoses can lead to a spectrum of complications, but the precise mechanisms linking bupropion overdose with rhabdomyolysis remain poorly understood.
