    Abstract Rationale: Lemierre-like syndrome (LLS) is characterized by bacteremia, septic thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein, and metastatic abscesses. In contrast to classic Lemierre syndrome, sources of infection are not related to oropharyngeal infections, as are frequent soft tissue infections. In recent years, Staphylococcus aureus has been identified as an emergent pathogen that causes this syndrome. The mortality rate of LLS caused by this pathogen is approximately 16%. Timely diagnosis, antibiotic treatment, and infection control are the cornerstones to treat LLS. Anticoagulant therapy as adjuvant treatment remains controversial.
    Patient concerns: A 31-year-old woman from California, United States (US), was admitted to the emergency room with a history of 2 days of fever and severe throbbing pain in the left cervical region. Thorax and neck CT tomography revealed confluent cavities suggestive of septic embolism in the lungs and a filiform thrombus in the lumen of the left internal jugular vein, with moderate swelling of the soft and muscular tissues. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was isolated from the blood culture.
    Diagnosis: The thrombus in the internal jugular vein associated with cellulitis in the neck and multiple cavitary lesions in the lungs support the diagnosis of LLS caused by MRSA with septic embolization.
    Interventions: During treatment, the patient received vancomycin IV for 25 days and returned to the US with linezolid orally. In addition, assisted video-thoracoscopy and bilateral mini-thoracotomy with pleural decortication were performed for infectious source control, where 1700cc of purulent pleural fluid was drained.
    Outcomes: The patient was discharged with optimal evolution.
    Lessons: LLS should be suspected in patients with skin and soft tissue infections who develop thrombosis or metastatic infections. MRSA infections should be considered in patients from areas where this pathogen is prevalent.

    Abstract Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among men who have sex with men (MSM) has been recognized as a public health problem in Miami-Dade County, Florida, USA. This was found to be a significant problem in our need assessment as evidenced by the HIV incidence rate of 28.4 per 100,000 population, which is higher than the average incidence reported for the state of Florida. MSM account for the mostly affected group, reaching 59% of all the new cases. A review of the HIV determinants was conducted using an ecological framework. At the individual level, sexual abuse, alcohol, and drug consumption were identified as determinants of HIV infection in this population. Family rejection was recognized as a determinant at the interpersonal level. Connection to the gay community can function as a protective factor but it can also be possible predictor of HIV infection. Among structural factors, poverty was found to be positively associated with HIV prevalence. Additionally, we highlighted the importance of sexual health education and especially pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) as protective factors. By using systems thinking tools, we designed a causal loop diagram that illustrates visually the recognized determinants of public health. Finally, we presented several studies that evaluate evidence-based interventions to improve the uptake and retention in care of PrEP in MSM. We also described existing interventions implemented in Miami-Dade County, and reported studies that may contribute to the development of new HIV preventive strategies in the future.

    Title translation Tratamiento exitoso con Remdesivir y corticoides en un paciente con neumonía asociada a COVID-19: reporte de un caso.
    Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has rapidly spread throughout the world causing significant mortality in high risk patients with severe manifestations. To date, Remdesivir has been the only antiviral authorized by FDA as therapy for emergency use. One of the potential complications of this infection is cytokine storm, which optimal treatment remains unknown. We present the case of a 48-year-old man with no past medical history who presented to the hospital with dyspnea, cough, subjective fever, and diarrhea for 10 days. Nasopharyngeal PCR was positive for SARS-CoV-2. His respiratory status rapidly worsened to the point of requiring supplemental oxygen by high flow nasal cannula with FiO2 of 80%. Chest computed tomography showed confluent ground glass opacities in upper lobes accompanied by patchy airspace opacities in lower lobes bilaterally. He was started on hydroxychloroquine, which was switched to Remdesivir when it became available. Then, methylprednisolone was initiated for suspected cytokine storm. The patients oxygenation improved significantly over the following days and he was discharged home with no oxygen supplementation and saturating 96% on room air. Our case illustrates the role of Remdesivir for the treatment of severe COVID-19 pneumonia. We also observed a possible clinical benefit of corticosteroids in the context of suspected cytokine storm. Further studies are needed to evaluate this therapeutic strategy.

    Abstract Neisseria gonorrhoeae is an uncommon present-day cause of septic arthritis. It is generally seen in the younger patient population and is often difficult to isolate in the lab. Blood cultures performed as routine work are usually negative, and when positive tend to be seen in the classic form of disseminated gonococcal infection. Here we report a case of acute septic monoarthritis, associated with N. gonorrhoea bacteraemia, in a 67-year-old male patient with multiple chronic comorbidities, who presented with acute pain and swelling at his left elbow, and no associated skin changes. Arthrocentesis findings were consistent with septic arthritis. Blood cultures drawn on admission grew N. gonorrhoeae. Synovial fluid culture was sterile but did exhibit Gram-negative cocci on Gram stain. The patient was started on IV antibiotics, and later underwent incision and drainage with subsequent improvement in symptoms. We thus present an unusual form of disseminated gonococcal infection in the setting of: epidemiology, physical presentation, as well as microbiologic findings. Although less common, DGI should be considered in the differential for septic join in the older adult population, and a sexual history should be obtained in all patients. This patient ultimately had an excellent outcome given his prompt presentation after symptom onset and immediate initiation of medical therapy.
