A Rare Case of Erythromycin-Induced Rhabdomyolysis.
Cureus
December 2024
Internal Medicine, Staten Island University Hospital, Staten Island, USA.
Rhabdomyolysis (RML) arises from the breakdown of muscle tissue, leading to the release of intracellular components into the bloodstream and potentially causing multi-organ failure. Multiple drugs have been reported to cause RML. We present here a rare instance of erythromycin-triggered RML in a patient who was not on any other potential RML-inducing medications.

The present investigation examined the influence of age and pubertal transition on magnitude of muscle damage and inflammatory response following high intensity incremental treadmill running till volitional exhaustion in sixty-four sedentary prepubertal ( = 32) and postpubertal ( = 32) boys who were randomly recruited in the study. Muscle damage and inflammatory markers like creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotranferase (AST), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) were estimated before and after exercise. Serum CK, LDH, AST, ALT, CRP and IL-6 levels significantly increased after exercise in both the groups in comparison to respective pre-exercise values.

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIMs) are a group of autoimmune disorders characterized by immune cell infiltration of muscle tissue accompanied by inflammation. Treatment of IIMs is challenging, with few effective therapeutic options due to the lack of appropriate models that successfully recapitulate the features of IIMs observed in humans. In the present study, we demonstrate that immunodeficient mice transplanted with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMCs) exhibit the key pathologic features of myositis observed in humans and develop graft-versus-host disease.

Background: Both quantitative and qualitative aspects of muscle status significantly impact clinical outcomes in critically ill patients. Comprehensive monitoring of baseline muscle status and its changes is crucial for risk stratification and management optimization. However, repeatable and accessible indicators are lacking.

We aimed to test whether angiotensin II infusion during intermittent hemodialysis is safe, feasible, and effective in the attenuation of muscle cramps.
Methods: We performed a pilot, single-blinded, randomized crossover trial of patients receiving intermittent hemodialysis who frequently experience intradialytic muscle cramps.
