Longitudinal symptom network patterns in cancer patients during the end of life.

Patients with cancer at the end of life experience a wide range of distressing physical and psychological symptoms, which often interact and intensify each other. Understanding how these symptoms are connected is essential for improving quality of life and providing effective palliative care. This study analyzed data from 26,318 medical visits of 8,026 patients receiving palliative care, focusing on symptom interactions during the final months of life. Symptom networks were estimated using the Ising Model across six time periods prior to death, with centrality measures used to identify key sym

Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) for the treatment of Raynaud's phenomenon.

BACKGROUND: Raynaud's phenomenon is a vasodilatory phenomenon characterised by digital pallor, cyanosis, and pain of the extremities. Primary Raynaud's phenomenon has no underlying disease associated with it, while secondary Raynaud's phenomenon is associated with connective tissue disorders such as systemic sclerosis. Systemic sclerosis causes fibrosis and commonly affects the skin and internal organs such as the gastrointestinal tract, lungs, kidney, and heart. Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) are a class of drugs that increases blood flow to the extremities and may be beneficial in th…

ВВЕДЕНИЕ: Пациенты с наследственной оптической нейропатией Лебера (LHON) имеют более высокий риск развития множественного склероза (MS), чем население в целом. Сосуществование LHON и MS, также известного как синдром Хардинга, осложняет диагностику оптической нейропатии, особенно когда лежащая в основе генетическая мутация является редкой причиной LHON, как ДНКJC30.

Risk factors and time to symptomatic presentation in leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma.

BackgroundUK policy aims to improve cancer outcomes by promoting early diagnosis, which for many haematological malignancies is particularly challenging as the pathways leading to diagnosis can be difficult and prolonged.MethodsA survey about symptoms was sent to patients in England with acute leukaemia, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), myeloma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Symptoms and barriers to first help seeking were examined for each subtype, along with the relative risk of waiting >3 months' time from symptom onset to first presentation to a doctor

Osteolytic Bone Lesions - A Rare Presentation of AML M6.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) M6 is a rare form of AML accounting for < 5 % of all AML. Extramedullary involvement is very rarely seen in this entity. Skeletal lesion has not been described in AML M6 before. We discuss the case of a 17 year old boy with AML M6, who presented with osteolytic lesion of right humerus. He was treated with induction and consolidation chemotherapy. The present case is the first report in literature of AML M6 presenting with skeletal lesions.

Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome: A Case Report With Contemporary Literature Review and Neuropathological Evidence From Autopsy.

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a neuro-radiological condition characterized by vasogenic edema in the parieto-occipital brain regions. Although typically reversible, some cases result in irreversible damage, particularly with delayed treatment. This study reviews 12 autopsy-confirmed cases and presents a novel case, emphasizing neuropathological findings that challenge the assumption of reversibility. Common pathological features include white matter edema, axonal swelling, and fibrinoid necrosis. Risk factors for PRES include hypertension (HTN), autoimmune diseases, re

A Complex Presentation of Multiple Myeloma With Renal Complications in a Young Female: Diagnostic Challenges and Treatment Approach.

A previously healthy 30-year-old woman experienced worsening back pain, fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, and facial puffiness. After 18 months of these symptoms, she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, which was also damaging her kidneys. The treatment involved a combination of medications and blood transfusions, leading to improved kidney function. Despite the challenges of managing her condition as a mother of young children, she remains hopeful. This case emphasizes the need for awareness of multiple myeloma in younger patients and the importance of early diagnosis and multidisciplinar

Missed Until Critical: Unravelling the Mystery of Persistent Hemolysis With a Definitive Diagnosis of Babesiosis.

Babesiosis is a parasitic protozoan infection caused primarily by Babesia microti in the United States. Its presentation can imitate that of malaria, which often leads to misdiagnosis. We present here a case of a 54-year-old female with multiple comorbidities, such as hypertension and hyperlipidemia, who was initially diagnosed with malaria but, with further investigation, was found to have babesiosis. The patient initially presented with anemia and thrombocytopenia, prompting an extensive and meticulous workup including a peripheral blood smear and autoimmune studies. From these tests, we wer

Plasma Cell Leukemia: A Review of 3 Cases Managed in Kenya.

Plasma Cell Leukemia (PCL) is a rare and aggressive form of plasma cell dyscrasia that can arise either de novo (primary plasma cell leukemia) or evolve from previously diagnosed and treated multiple myeloma (secondary PCL). We highlight three clinical cases with very different presentations as a reminder of this diagnosis. The cases also highlight the diversity and variability that cover a patient's journey that is highly dependent on accessibility based on financial capability and social support. The clinical presentation is more aggressive due to the higher tumour burden and more proliferat
