    Abstract Abstract Background Malaria is still major problem in developing countries, such as Pakistan. Besides fever, body ache and vomiting it can present with acute kidney injury, proteinuria, hematuria and cerebral manifestations which are more common with falciparum malaria. Neurological manifestations are rare presentation of malaria and should be consider in patients who are admitting with features of neuropathy and stroke. Case presentation We describe an unusual case of falciparum malaria, complicated by acute kidney injury who developed Polyneuropathy and intra-arterial thrombosis in middle cerebral artery territory. Our patient recovered his renal functions during admission and recovered his power and sensation in his limbs as well after 1 month. Conclusion Malaria cause neurological manifestations including axonal and sensory neuropathy, cerebral venous and arterial thrombosis, PMNS, cerebellar signs and symptoms, psychosis, etc. With prompt diagnosis and early treatment they can be cure and regain their motor and sensory functions to normal level.

    Abstract Introduction: Relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has a poor prognosis. Several novel therapies have gained regulatory approval for treatment of DLBCL, however there is still a need for additional therapies to be added to the armamentarium. Loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl (ADC Therapeutics), an anti-CD19 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), was recently approved for the treatment of relapsed, refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
    Areas covered: We review the design and pharmacologic characteristics of loncastuximab tesirine-lpyl, emphasizing on the significance of CD19 as an effective target as well as pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) as an effective payload. We review the key findings of the phase 1 LOTIS-1 and Phase 2 LOTIS-2 trials of loncastuximab in DLBCL, including efficacy and toxicity profile.
    Expert opinion: Key findings in the early-phase trial support the efficacy of Loncastuximab in DLBCL, including in high-risk subgroups. The side effects have been tolerable even in elderly patients (≥75 years). Several ongoing clinical trials are currently evaluating the safety and efficacy of loncastuximab tesirine in a variety of NHL subtypes, as well as the study of combination strategies.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the factors associated with persistent sputum positivity at the end of 2 months of treatment in patients presenting with (drug-susceptible) pulmonary tuberculosis at a tertiary care hospital in Karachi. A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Chest Medicine (Ward 12), Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center (JPMC), Karachi, over 6 months. A sample of 73 consenting, newly diagnosed, smear-positive drug-susceptible pulmonary tuberculosis patients was studied. Demographic (age, gender, height, weight and duration of tuberculosis, BMI, socioeconomic, occupational, marital, educational and residential statuses) and clinical factors (chest X-ray extent and cavities, initial smear results, diabetic and smoking statuses) which may be associated with sputum non-conversion were entered in a proforma. Patients were followed up at 2 months of treatment with a sputum smear. Data analysis was done on SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences-version 20.0). Rate of sputum positivity after 2 months of anti-tubercular drug treatment was 17.8%. None of the above-mentioned demographic and clinical factors was associated with persistence of sputum positivity except for the presence of CXR cavities, which made it 5.5 times more likely that the patient would remain smear-positive at 2 months (

    Abstract Although Fluorine-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is routinely used in oncological imaging, the F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) avidity is not tumor-specific. Numerous benign infective and inflammatory processes may also show increased radiotracer activity. Similarly, abnormal 18F-FDG uptake in an inflamed appendix can pose a diagnostic challenge for the interpreter of oncologic 18F-FDG PET/CT. We present the case of an 18-year-old female with classic Hodgkin's lymphoma who had 18F-FDG PET/CT while undergoing chemoradiotherapy. The scan demonstrated a complete metabolic response to treatment. However, there was increased 18F-FDG uptake in the right iliac region, projecting over the appendix, which, if interpreted as a lymphomatous involvement, would have upscaled the treatment response to progressive disease. The patient was called for additional workup, which included an ultrasound abdomen. The scan revealed classic features of acute appendicitis. However, there was no appendicolith or luminal obstruction. Upon additional questioning, the patient mentioned mild intermittent abdominal pain and anorexia eased by pain relievers for the preceding few days. On deep palpation of her abdomen, there was rebound tenderness in the right iliac region. According to the Alvarado score, it was graded 7 points suggesting probable/likely appendicitis. After collective evaluation of the clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings, the appendicular 18F-FDG uptake was deemed secondary to uncomplicated acute appendicitis rather than a lymphomatous lesion. Our patient refused surgery as she did not have severe abdominal pain. She was hemodynamically stable without signs of luminal obstruction. She was non-operatively managed with broad-spectrum antibiotics for six days. The results of the follow-up complete blood counts and ultrasound examination were negative. Our patient was symptom-free and recovering normally at a two-week follow-up appointment. We present a follow-up case of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma with incidental uptake in the appendix, which resembled submucosal lymphomatous cell infiltration of the appendix. Careful scrutiny, clinical correlation, physical examination, blood tests, and additional imaging offered helpful insight and led to the correct, benign diagnosis of the 18F-FDG avid appendix.
