    Abstract Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, or transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome, is characterized by acute left ventricular dysfunction caused by transient wall-motion abnormalities of the left ventricular apex and mid ventricle in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Recurrent episodes are rare but have been reported, and several cases of takotsubo cardiomyopathy have been described in the presence of hyperthyroidism. We report the case of a 55-year-old woman who had recurrent takotsubo cardiomyopathy, documented by repeat coronary angiography and evaluations of left ventricular function, in the presence of recurrent hyperthyroidism related to Graves disease. After both episodes, the patient's left ventricular function returned to normal when her thyroid function normalized. These findings suggest a possible role of thyroid-hormone excess in the pathophysiology of some patients who have takotsubo cardiomyopathy.

    Abstract The primary objective of this study was to examine the short-term effects of escitalopram on symptoms of night eating syndrome (NES) in a randomized controlled clinical trial. A total of 40 patients with NES were randomly assigned to double-blind treatment with escitalopram 20 mg (n = 20) or placebo (n = 20) for 12 weeks. Escitalopram was started at 10 mg/d with a dosage increase to 20 mg/d after 4 weeks; placebo dosing was identical. The primary end point was a mean change in total score of the Night Eating Questionnaire (NEQ). At 12 weeks, mean (SE) change in NEQ total score was -13.0 (1.6) and -10.6 (2.2) in the escitalopram and placebo groups, respectively (F(1,37) = 2.5, P = 0.124). There was a marginal interaction effect between response to escitalopram and race (F(1,34) = 4.0, P = 0.052), with a favorable effect for white patients (F(1,20) = 6.0, P = 0.024) but not for black patients (F(1,13) = 0.6, P = 0.453). Seven patients in the escitalopram group, compared with 6 patients in the placebo group, showed a 50% NEQ score reduction (P = 0.736). Sixteen patients in the escitalopram group and 12 patients in the placebo group no longer met NES criteria (P = 0.168). Twelve patients in the escitalopram group were classified as responders according to the Clinical Global Impression Improvement scale compared with 7 patients in the placebo group (P = 0.113). No significant between-group differences were found for weight, mood ratings, or adverse events. We conclude that escitalopram treatment for 12 weeks was not superior to placebo in reducing NES symptoms as measured by the NEQ.

  10. Article ; Online: "Hyper-warburgism," a cause of asymptomatic hypoglycemia with lactic acidosis in a patient with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

    Abstract: ... categories of B- and T-cell lymphoma. There was no difference in the mortality rate in those with (75%) or ...

    Abstract Context: In cancer cells, the Warburg effect is defined as the avid consumption of glucose through the glycolytic pathway with concomitant lactate production, even under aerobic conditions.
    Case: We report a 64-yr-old woman who was referred to our institution for pancytopenia and hypoglycemia. Physical examination demonstrated hepatosplenomegaly and petechiae. She had no clinical manifestation of neuroglycopenia, despite serum glucose of 26 mg/dl (1.4 mmol/liter) and serum lactate of 28.5 mmol/liter (normal range, 0.5-3.4 mmol/liter). Bone marrow biopsy demonstrated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Staging (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed increased FDG avidity in an enlarged spleen and absent FDG uptake in the brain. Despite dextrose infusions up to 30 g/h, there was no increase in serum glucose, but there was a paradoxical increase in serum lactate. Immunochemotherapy improved the hematological and metabolic abnormalities. Follow-up FDG-positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed a decrease in splenic avidity and an increase in brain FDG avidity. The patient refused further chemotherapy and died 1 wk after discharge.
    Methods: Literature review of cases of lymphoma with lactic acidosis, with and without hypoglycemia, demonstrated that these combinations occurred in multiple categories of B- and T-cell lymphoma. There was no difference in the mortality rate in those with (75%) or without (74%) concomitant hypoglycemia.
    Conclusion: This case represents an exaggerated Warburg effect, or "hyper-warburgism," characterized by excessive lactate production and overwhelming glucose consumption. We speculate that the decreased brain FDG uptake, despite the lack of neuroglycopenic symptoms, supports the hypothesis that lactate served as a fuel for the brain, thus protecting against hypoglycemia.
