A Rare Case of Steroid-Induced Hypothermia in a Patient With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Pharmacy, Methodist University Hospital, Memphis, USA.
A 75-year-old woman with a history of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presented with isolate ocular symptoms, including a left scleral hematoma, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and C-reactive protein (CRP). Initial evaluation combined with isolated ocular symptoms raised concerns for giant cell arteritis rather than an SLE flare. Thus, prompt initiation of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone (250 mg every six hours) was warranted.

Objectives: Patients with SLE take multiple medications. Within a large prospective longitudinal SLE cohort, we characterised medication-related hospitalisations and their preventability.
Methods: We identified consecutive admissions to our tertiary hospitals between 2015 and 2020.
Clinical presentation, outcomes and risk of relapses of lupus podocytopathy in a multicentre Italian cohort.

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Humanitas University, Via Rita Levi Montalcini 4, Pieve Emanuele, 20072, Milan, Italy.
Background: In an Italian cohort of lupus podocytopathy patients, we aimed to characterize the presenting features, therapy, and outcomes, and explore differences between relapsing and non-relapsing patients.
Methods: We identified 29 patients with lupus podocytopathy from 1994 to 2023 in 11 Italian Nephrology/Rheumatology Units, and divided them into two groups: relapsing and non-relapsing. Given the limited sample size, a p-value ≤ 0.
Tracking changes in autonomic function by coupled analysis of wavelet-based dispersion of heart rate variability and gastrointestinal symptom severity in individuals with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.

ARID Laboratory, Department of Pediatrics, College of Medicine, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, United States.
Introduction: People with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) experience multisystemic dysfunction with varying severity and unpredictability of flare occurrence. Cohort studies suggest that individuals with hEDS have a higher risk for autonomic dysfunction. The gold standard for assessing autonomic function, clinically, is the heart rate variability (HRV) assessment from 24-h Holter monitor electrocardiogram data, but this is expensive and can only be performed in short durations.

Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a hereditary autoinflammatory disease characterized by recurrent fever and systemic inflammation, most prevalent in Eastern Mediterranean populations. Rare in regions like Romania, FMF presents diagnostic challenges and risks severe complications if untreated. We report a 7-year-old Romanian girl, from a non-classical ethnic background, with recurrent febrile episodes and elevated inflammatory markers.
