Acupuncture Induced Multiorgan Failure

Nageswar Bandla, Andreea Mihai and Stephen Lord

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: December 10, 2021

Dating back to 100 BC, acupuncture has been performed safely for centuries for a wide range of medical conditions. Although a technically invasive procedure, reports of adverse incidents in the medical literature are thankfully very rare. We present a case of acupuncture induced multisensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) bacteraemia and septic shock, resulting in multiorgan failure and a prolonged intensive care stay. This case report serves to remind clinicians that although the overall risk o...

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to millions of deaths throughout the world. Several randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that steroids reduce mortality in severe COVID-19 infection. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention has recommended dexamethasone as the first line of treatment. However, methylprednisolone is being used as the steroid of choice in many countries worldwide. We sought to perform a systematic review and metaanalysis to compare the outcomes with the use of these tw...

Coagulation Abnormalities in Pregnant Women with COVID-19

Vladimir Y Khryshchanovich, MD and Natalia Y Skobeleva, BS

Article Type: Letter to Editorial | First Published: December 18, 2021

Late pregnancy and the early postpartum period are characterized by the so-called physiological hypercoagulation: The concentration of blood clotting factors I, II, VIII, IX, X increases twice, the functional activity of platelets increases, and the fibrinolytic activity of serum decreases. On the one hand, the prothrombotic status reduces the risk of massive blood loss in childbirth, and on the other - creates prerequisites for the development of venous thromboembolism. In the context of assess...

Orellana Dávila Bernardo, MD, Fresilli Mauro, MD, Oddi Fabio Massimo, MD, Diotallevi Nicolò, MD, Ascoli Marchetti Andrea and Ippoliti Arnaldo

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: December 13, 2021

True atherosclerotic aneurysms of the common femoral artery (CFA) are rare and often associated with other peripheral or aortic aneurysms. Degenerative aneurysms of the lower extremity most commonly involve the popliteal artery, while they are rarely detected in the femoral region. In this region, aneurysms most frequently involve the common femoral artery (CFA), whereas true aneurysms of the superficial femoral artery (SFA) represent only 15% to 25% of femoral arterial aneurysms. We report a ca...

The antibiotic prophylaxis for prostate biopsy is not well established, usually is based on fluoroquinolones, but there is an increase of resistance. We explore the efficacy of Fosfomycin trometamol in comparison with ciprofloxacin plus cefoxitin as prophilaxis of this procedure. A total of 432 transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsies were performed: 241 patients received prophylaxis with cefoxitin 2 g i.v. 1 hour before the procedure combined with ciprofloxacin 750 mg p.o. 1 hour before ...

External Multicenter Validation of the Mehran Risk Score for Contrast Induced Acute Kidney Injury

Nashwa Abdulsalam

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: December 16, 2021

Contrast induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is a known complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Mehran Risk Score (MR score) has been previously shown to predict CIAKI, renal replacement therapy (RRT), and one-year mortality in patients undergoing PCI. The purpose of our study was to externally validate the MR score. To examine the utility of the MR score we reviewed records of 931 adult patients who underwent PCI in 2005 at 3 academic medical centers. Patients with acute myoca...

Altered Mental Status as the Primary Presentation of Stercoral Colitis

Himax Patel, MD, Anna Madia, BS and Idris F Ali Amghaiab, MS

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: December 01, 2021

Constipation is prevalent in the elderly. Rarely, severe constipation leads to stercoral colitis, a condition which results from fecal impaction in the colon causing increased intraluminal pressure, ulcer formation, and perforation of the colonic tissue. This condition can be fatal if it is not recognized early and promptly treated. Early detection is often difficult as this disease primarily affects elderly patients with history of dementia, stroke, or other neurologic disorders, and can cause ...
