Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a highly prevalent condition defined by the presence of at least three out of five risk factors including central obesity, increased fasting glucose, high blood pressure, and dyslipidaemia. Metabolic syndrome is associated with a 2-fold increase in cardiovascular outcomes and a 1.5-fold increase in all-cause mortality. Excess energy intake and Western dietary pattern may influence the development of metabolic syndrome. By contrast, both Mediterranean diet (Med-diet) and Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, with or without calorie restriction, have positive effects...

Ultrasound is used more and more in determining acute blood loss. This study is to compare tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE) measurement to determine volume loss pre and post blood donation in healthy volunteers. The systolic, diastolic and mean arterial blood pressures and pulses of the donors were measured in the standing and supine position by the attending physician, then, inferior vena cava (IVC), TAPSE and MAPSE measurements were made pre and post blood donation...

AF patients with history of thromboembolic events are at higher risk of thromboembolic recurrences, despite appropriate antithrombotic treatment. We aimed to evaluate the effect of mobile health (mHealth) technology-implemented 'Atrial fibrillation Better Care' (ABC) pathway approach (mAFA intervention) in secondary prevention AF patients. The Mobile Health Technology for Improved Screening and Optimized Integrated Care in AF (mAFA-II) cluster randomized trial enrolled adult AF patients across 40 centers in China...

With the aging population, improving technology, and expanding indications for diagnosing and treating arrhythmias and heart failure, many patients are receiving cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) such as pacemakers and implantable cardioverter defibrillators. Consequently, patients with CIEDs are frequently encountered in the emergency department and in the wards. It is imperative that emergency physicians and internists have a strong foundation on CIEDs and their potential complications. This review aims to help physicians develop a framework in approaching CIEDs and to recognize and manage clinical scenarios that may arise from CIED complications...

Pancreatic encephalopathy (PE) is a lethal complication of acute pancreatitis (AP), but its clinical characteristics and prognosis remain obscure. Herein, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of PE in AP patients. PubMed, EMBASE, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched. Based on the data from cohort studies, the incidence and mortality of PE in AP patients were pooled. Based on the individual data from case reports, logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for death in PE patients...

CASE PRESENTATION: A 63-year-old man presented with fever, thoracalgia, weight loss, diffuse lymphadenopathy, and a massive pleural effusion. Extensive laboratory and radiologic investigations for possible autoimmune, infectious, hematologic, and neoplastic conditions all resulted negative. A lymph node biopsy showed a granulomatous necrotizing lymphadenitis, suspicious for tuberculosis. Although mycobacterium tuberculosis (MT) was never isolated and tuberculin skin test resulted negative, diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis was made and anti-tubercular therapy was started...

Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD) is an ultra-rare disease, and several gaps of knowledge on various issues remain, particularly at a regional/national level. Expert opinions collected through well-defined consensus methodologies are increasingly used to make available reliable information in the context of rare/ultra-rare diseases. With the aim to provide indications on infantile neurovisceral ASMD (also formerly known as Niemann-Pick disease type A), chronic neurovisceral ASMD (formerly known as Niemann-Pick disease type A/B) and chronic visceral ASMD (formerly known as Niemann-Pick disease type B) in Italy, we conducted a Delphi consensus of experts focused on five main areas: (i) patients and disease characteristics; (ii) unmet needs and quality of life; (iii) diagnostic issues; (iv) treatment-related aspects; and (v) patient journey...

This study aims to describe musculoskeletal manifestations (MSM) in children with Behçet's syndrome (BS), their association with other disease manifestations, response to therapy, and long-term prognosis. Data were retrieved from the AIDA Network Behçet's Syndrome Registry. Out of a total of 141 patients with juvenile BS, 37 had MSM at disease onset (26.2%). The median age at onset was 10.0 years (IQR 7.7). The median follow-up duration was 21.8 years (IQR 23.3). Recurrent oral (100%) and genital ulcers (67...

Currently, all patients, regardless of the type of head injury, should undergo a head computerized tomography (CT) if on oral anticoagulant therapy. The aim of the study was to assess the different incidences of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) between patients with minor head injury (mHI) and patients with mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) and whether there were differences in the risk of death at 30 days as a result of trauma or neurosurgery. A retrospective multicenter observational study was conducted from January 1, 2016, to February 1, 2020...
