Blind nasoenteric tube placement risks: A case report of misplacement into the pleural cavity.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Critical Care Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, Zunyi, Guizhou, People's Republic of China.
Rationale: Enteral nutrition is a critical component of care for critically ill patients. However, the blind insertion of a nasoenteric tube, despite being a simple procedure, carries inherent risks that necessitate a reevaluation of the technique.
Patient Concerns: A case of a 60-year-old female experienced the rare yet critical complication of a misplaced nasoenteric tube entering the thoracic cavity during a blind insertion procedure for enteral nutrition following a liver transplant.
Electrical Diuretics: Lateral Epidural Stimulation of Dorsal Roots to Increase Diuresis.

Bakken Research Center, Maastricht, The Netherlands. Electronic address:
Background: Stimulating diuresis is crucial in heart failure (HF) treatment. Diuretic resistance develops in approximately 30% to 45% of patients with HF.
Objective: We investigated the feasibility and safety of lateral epidural stimulation (LES) to enhance diuresis by stimulating renal afferent sensory nerves.

From the Department of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, UKSH Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany (J.S., M.M., L.B., Y.E., J.B., M.M.S.); Institute of Medical Informatics, University of Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany (L.H., M.P.H.); Philips Research Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany (A.S., H.S.); and Institute of Interventional Radiology, UKSH Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany (M.M.S.).
Purpose: Accurate detection of central venous catheter (CVC) misplacement is crucial for patient safety and effective treatment. Existing artificial intelligence (AI) often grapple with the limitations of label inaccuracies and output interpretations that lack clinician-friendly comprehensibility. This study aims to introduce an approach that employs segmentation of support material and anatomy to enhance the precision and comprehensibility of CVC misplacement detection.

Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs) are a measure of temporary sterilization. Misplacement of IUCD is fairly common and most of these women remain asymptomatic. We report a clustered case series of misplaced, mal-positioned, and transmigrated IUCDs with serious complications and their management by minimally invasive surgery in a newly established medical school in North India.

A 72-year-old man with progressive memory loss and confusion presented to a neurology clinic for evaluation. He initially had difficulty remembering names and misplaced objects; however, his memory deficits had progressed, and more recently he had numerous car accidents and difficulty managing his own medications and finances. Cognitive testing revealed significant memory deficits reflecting moderate-stage dementia, and his brain MRI showed several cortical microbleeds and an area of siderosis consistent with the diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).
