Rhabdomyolysis Following Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole Therapy: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Curr Drug Saf
January 2025
National Center Chalbi Belkahia of Pharmacovigilance, Department of Collection and Analysis of Adverse Effects, Tunis, Tunisia, University of Tunis El Manar, Faculty of Medicine, Research unit: UR17ES12, Tunis, Tunisia.
Background: Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) is a commonly used antibiotic for the treatment of several infections, such as urinary tract infections, respiratory infections, and in certain cases, septic arthritis. Rhabdomyolysis (RM) is very rare and less than 20 cases have been reported, so far, in the literature, in particular in immunocompromised patients. Here, we report a case of TMP-SMX-induced RM in an immunocompetent patient, adding to the limited data on this association.

December 2023
Faculty of Medicine and Health, The University of Sydney, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
Objectives: Non-mortality benefits of breast cancer screening are rarely considered in assessments of benefits versus harms. This study aims to estimate the rate of overdiagnosis in women with screen-detected breast cancer (SDBC) by allocating cases to either possibly overdiagnosed (POD) or not overdiagnosed categories and to compare treatment recommendations for surgery and adjuvant treatments by category, age at diagnosis and cancer stage.
Methods And Analysis: Retrospective secondary analysis of 10 191 women diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia and New Zealand in 2018.
Cancer incidence and competing mortality risk following 15 presenting symptoms in primary care: a population-based cohort study using electronic healthcare records.
BMJ Oncol
November 2024
Department of Behavioural Science and Health, Institute of Epidemiology and Healthcare, University College London, London, UK.
Objectives: Assessment of age, sex and smoking-specific risk of cancer diagnosis and non-cancer mortality following primary care consultation for 15 new-onset symptoms.
Methods And Analysis: Data on patients aged 30-99 in 2007-2017 were extracted from a UK primary care database (CPRD Gold), comprising a randomly selected reference group and a symptomatic cohort of patients presenting with one of 15 new onset symptoms (abdominal pain, abdominal bloating, rectal bleed, change in bowel habit, dyspepsia, dysphagia, dyspnoea, haemoptysis, haematuria, fatigue, night sweats, weight loss, jaundice, breast lump and post-menopausal bleed).Time-to-event models were used to estimate outcome-specific hazards for site-specific cancer diagnosis and non-cancer mortality and to estimate cumulative incidence up to 12 months following index consultation.
Late presentation of Coats disease in a 12-year-old boy: a case report.

Department of Ophthalmology, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Airlangga, Dr Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia.
Coats disease is a rare abnormality characterized with retinal telangiectasia and aneurysms with retinal exudation, most often seen in young males and usually affecting only one eye. A 12-year-old boy came in with a three-month history of vision loss and pain in his right eye, alongside progressively worsening blurred vision over the last year. His visual acuity was reduced to only light perception in the right eye, while his left eye maintained 5/5 vision.

Curr Dev Nutr
January 2025
Department of Exercise Physiology, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, Iran.
Background: Caffeine is a well-established ergogenic aid that enhances physical performance and recovery. However, its dose-dependent effects on key performance metrics in combat sports like kickboxing remain insufficiently explored.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of varied doses of acute caffeine supplementation on performance indices and perceived muscle pain in kickboxing athletes.
