    Abstract Background: The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a global crisis, as the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a global pandemic. Complete heart block, resulting from an abnormal heart rhythm, is a rare presentation of this infection, which can be life-threatening due to possible progression into ventricular tachycardia.
    Case presentation: We report a critical case of COVID-19 in a young woman without any medical history. She was admitted to the hospital with a rare, but serious presentation of temporary complete heart block with a skin rash after three weeks of treatment with an antiviral agent and hydroxychloroquine. The result of cardiac monitoring, using a Holter monitor, was normal, and her sinus rhythm returned to normal without any interventions.
    Conclusion: This case emphasized the importance of regular follow-ups for patients with COVID-19 and highlighted the need for attention to unusual presentations, such as brief episodes of unconsciousness and chest pain.

    Abstract Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by the neoplastic proliferation of plasma cells, leading to the production of monoclonal immunoglobulins. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant has been used in the treatment of patients with MM (1). Melphalan (L-phenylalanine nitrogen mustard) is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic drugs in the treatment of MM (2). The side effects of melphalan include anemia, nausea, vomiting, allergic reactions, oral ulcers, nephrotoxicity, and arrhythmia at high doses (3). The effect of this drug on cardiac mechanics and heart damage is not well established, as previous studies have only focused on the electrocardiographic and metabolic effects of this drug.

    Abstract Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophic factor expressed in several tissues, including the brain, gut, and pancreas. Activation of the BDNF/TrkB/CREB reduces hepatic gluconeogenesis, induces hepatic insulin signal transduction, and protects against pancreatic beta-cell loss in diabetes mellitus (DM). Several studies have investigated the possible association between BDNF and DM and its complications, but the results have been conflicting.
    Aim: In the present study, we aimed at systematically reviewing the literature on the serum and plasma levels of BDNF in DM and its subgroups such as T2DM, DM patients with depression, and patients with retinopathy.
    Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. We identified 28 eligible studies and calculated the standardized mean difference (SMD) of outcomes as an effect measure.
    Results: The meta-analysis included 2734 patients with DM and 6004 controls. Serum BDNF levels were significantly lower in patients with DM vs. controls (SMD = -1.00, P<0.001). Plasma BDNF levels were not different in patients with DM compared with controls. When conducting subgroup analysis, serum BDNF levels were lower among patients with T2DM (SMD = -1.26, P<0.001), DM and depression (SMD = -1.69, P<0.001), and patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR) vs. controls (SMD = -1.03, P = 0.01).
    Conclusions: Serum BDNF levels were lower in patients with DM, T2DM, DM with depression, and DM and DR than the controls. Our findings are in line with the hypothesis that decreased BDNF levels might impair glucose metabolism and contribute to the pathogenesis of DM and its complications.

    Abstract Background: Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is one of the obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCD) which is very common in populations. However, the diagnosis rate is lower than the reality. BDD may lead to loneliness, jobless, avoidance of daily life and public activities. The Body Dysmorphic Disorder Questionnaire-Aesthetic Surgery (BDDQ-AS) is the validated questionnaire used to screen the BBD in patients seeking cosmetic surgeries. This study aimed to translate and validate a Persian version of the BDDQ-AS.
    Methods: This analytical-descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Firoozgar Hospital, Tehran, Iran to validate the BDDQ-AS in Iranian society in 2020. A standard forward and back-translation procedure was followed. Overall, 79 Persian-speaking patients of both sexes referred to rhinoplasty surgery department at Firoozgar hospital were recruited. The control group consisted of 70 patients who also completed the final questionnaire. The BDDQ-AS was translated into Farsi. The final version was tested for reliability and validity in both groups.
    Results: The internal consistency and split-half test were 89.2% and 92% respectively in rhinoplasty group. The spearman`s correlation coefficient between the scores obtained in BDD-YBOCS and BDDQ-AS was 0.757 (
    Conclusion: The Persian version of the BDDQ-AS questionnaire consist of 6 short yes/no questions which is less time-consuming and reliable for interpreting and screening. The sensitivity and specificity of this version are 85.71% and 81% respectively, which are adequate for screening.
