Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma which can present with B symptoms, rash, and neurological deterioration. Up to 10% of cases of IVLBCL are associated with other hematological neoplasms, including this extremely rare presentation of IVLBCL as Richter's transformation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Residual hyperglycemia after successful treatment of a patient with severe copper sulfate poisoning.

J Zhejiang Univ Sci B

December 2024

Department of Emergency Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou 310003, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Copper sulfate is commonly used in labs, with rare cases of poisoning; only 140 exposures were reported in a year, and five were intentional (Gummin et al., 2023).
  • Severe copper sulfate poisoning can lead to gastrointestinal injury, hemolysis, and muscle damage, but no long-term hyperglycemia has been previously reported.
  • This case study examines the treatment of a patient who ingested a large dose of copper sulfate, resulting in prolonged uncontrolled hyperglycemia and multiple organ dysfunction, stressing the need for careful monitoring and management post-poisoning.

Background: The role of Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) is still unclear in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI in the current second-generation DES era.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the trends and outcomes of IVUS-guided PCI in patients with STEMI.

Methods: We used the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2016 to 2021.

Antiplatelets before or during endovascular therapy after intravenous thrombolysis for atherothrombotic large vessel occlusion.

J Clin Neurosci

December 2024

Department of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, University of Tsukuba Hospital, Tsukuba, Japan; Department of Neurosurgery, Institute of Medicine, University of Tsukuba, Tsukuba, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • Re-occlusion and thrombus formation after mechanical thrombectomy in stroke patients can lead to worse outcomes, but early antiplatelet therapy (APT) may help prevent these issues.
  • Current guidelines recommend waiting to use APT after intravenous thrombolysis, which complicates treatment for large vessel occlusion strokes.
  • A study of 164 patients in Japan suggests that starting APT early post-thrombolysis is safe, with no significant differences in hemorrhagic events or mortality compared to those who started APT later or not at all.

Intravascular accumulation of atypical large lymphoid cells is a rare condition that necessitates a differential diagnosis of intravascular lymphoma (IVL). Recently, a non-neoplastic condition known as benign atypical intravascular CD30+ T-cell proliferation (BAITP) has been identified. This condition is characterized by CD30+ and CD3+ or CD4+ atypical T-cells and is often associated with trauma and chronic inflammation.
