Hamman Syndrome in Diabetic Ketoacidosis: Unveiling a Rare and Life-Threatening Complication.

Hamman syndrome, or spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is a rare condition characterized by the presence of free air in the mediastinum, often triggered by increased intrathoracic pressure from vomiting, coughing, or intense physical exertion. Its association with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is extremely uncommon. We report a case of an 18-year-old male with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes who developed DKA complicated by pneumomediastinum, subcutaneous emphysema, and a small pneumothorax.

Rare Association of Dermatitis Herpetiformis and Chronic Plaque Psoriasis.

Dermatologists should consider investigating for coexisting autoimmune conditions such as dermatitis herpetiformis and/or coeliac disease, in patients with psoriasis presenting clinical signs and symptoms, in order to ensure an accurate diagnosis and improve patients' long-term management.

Characterization of mammographic markers of inflammatory breast cancer (IBC).

Purpose: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare and aggressive type of breast cancer, as many physicians may not be aware of it in terms of symptoms and diagnosis. Mammography is the first choice in breast screenings and diagnosis. Because of a lack of expertise and imaging datasets, IBC portrayal and machine learning-based diagnosis systems have not yet been studied thoroughly.

Tuberculous meningitis associated with the absence of pleocytosis in cerebrospinal fluid in an immunocompetent patient: A case report.

We report a case of tuberculous meningitis without pleocytosis of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in a 27-year-old patient admitted for a meningeal syndrome with signs of basilar involvement and an infectious syndrome associated with a hacking cough with whitish sputum and night sweats, evolving for 15 days before her admission, in a context of weight loss of 2 kg, asthenia, and anorexia. Cytobacteriological and chemical analysis of the CSF revealed less than 3 cells/mm white blood cells, high protein levels of 2.54 g/l, and low glucose levels of 0.

Evaluation of Glycemic Control in Patients With Diabetes by a Continuous Glucose Monitoring System During the Month of Ramadan.

Introduction: Ramadan presents challenges for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who choose to fast. Maintaining good glycemic control through regular monitoring during fasting is crucial. This study aims to evaluate and compare glycemic fluctuations in fasting and non-fasting T2DM patients during Ramadan.

ZFYVE19 gene mutation: A novel variant of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis.

A recent nonsyndromic phenotype, newly linked to mutations in the ZFYVE19 gene, is characterized by the appearance of cholestasis accompanied by an increase in serum gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT) from infancy or early childhood. Affected individuals generally present with hepatosplenomegaly and may develop portal hypertension. The disease is thought to be the result of cholangiocyte-specific ciliary dysfunction, indicating a ciliopathy that appears to be limited to the liver.

Phenotype-genotype correlation in children with familial Mediterranean fever in Morocco.

Background: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the MEFV gene and is characterized by recurrent febrile episodes of abdominal pain, chest pain, and joint involvement. We aim to study the clinical and genetic features of FMF in Moroccan children and to establish a phenotype-genotype correlation in this group of patients.

Methods: A total of 35 patients were included in this study.

Comparative study of cutaneous malignant melanoma according to anatomical site: plantar versus non-plantar melanoma.

Plantar melanomas have more aggressive clinicopathological characteristics and higher mortality rates than melanomas in other anatomical regions. To compare clinicopathological features and define prognostic factors between melanoma in the plantar region and melanoma at other anatomical sites. A retrospective comparative analysis was conducted on all cutaneous melanoma patients seen at a tertiary referral center over 20 years.

Giant intracranial tuberculomas in children: An unexpected diagnosis and difficult management - About two cases and review of the literature.

Background: Giant intracranial tuberculomas are rare space-occupying lesions in the brain parenchyma, with a diameter >2.5 cm. They can mimic gliomas, meningiomas, and metastases.

Prevalence of metronidazole resistance and infection in Moroccan children: a cross-sectional study.

Introduction: the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in children is very high in Morocco. Eradication rates of H.

Psychological impact of peri-implant fractures: A cross-sectional study.

Introduction: Peri-implant fractures (PIFs) are uncommon yet critical complications following orthopedic surgery. These complications can significantly impact a patient's psychological well-being and overall quality of life.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the psychological effects of PIFs.

Global radiotherapy demands and corresponding radiotherapy-professional workforce requirements in 2022 and predicted to 2050: a population-based study.

Background: Addressing the challenge of cancer control requires a comprehensive, integrated, and global health-system response. We aimed to estimate global radiotherapy demands and requirements for radiotherapy professionals from 2022 to 2050.

Methods: We conducted a population-based study using data from the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN) 2022 and predicted global radiotherapy demands and workforce requirements in 2050.

Irreducible posterior fracture-dislocation of the hip associated with an ipsilateral femoral shaft fracture: A case report and review of the literature.

Introduction: Ipsilateral fractures of the shaft of the femur combined with hip dislocations are extremely rare injuries, presenting a difficult diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Diagnosis of hip dislocation is often delayed, due to the focus on femoral fracture.

Case Presentation: This article presents a case never described before of a 19-year-old patient who sustained this unusual combination of injuries as a result of a road traffic accident.
