    Abstract Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) is histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, a rare immune-mediated disorder presenting with lymphadenopathy, leukopenia, and occasionally fever. Herein we report a case of KFD who presented with anorexia, fever, and cervical lymphadenopathy. Lymph node biopsy and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of KFD. She was treated with prednisolone and paracetamol, and her condition improved gradually on subsequent follow-up. A patient presenting with fever and lymphadenopathy leads to prompt investigations for common diseases such as tuberculosis and lymphoma. However, rare diseases like KFD must be kept in mind, and a lymph node biopsy followed by histopathologic examination and immunohistochemistry should be done to confirm the diagnosis.

    Abstract Neurologic complications are a hallmark of infective endocarditis (IE). IE leading to intracranial abscess has an unfavorable prognosis. A 17-year-old boy with a past medical history of aortic valve replacement presented with fever and seizure. On examination, he had tachycardia, systolic murmur, slurred speech, meningeal signs, and right homonymous hemianopia. His laboratory analysis revealed an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein. The brain's magnetic resonance imaging revealed multiple ring-enhancing lesions in the frontal, occipital lobe, and occipitotemporal lobe, consistent with intracranial abscess. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a mobile mass adjacent to aortic value, consistent with possible infective vegetation. He was diagnosed with multiple cerebral septic emboli leading to intracranial abscess due to IE. Blood and cerebrospinal fluid culture revealed methicillin-sensitive

    Abstract A dermoid cyst, also called a mature teratoma, is a benign tumor of the ovary derived from pluripotent germ cells. It is often asymptomatic; however, it can be expressed by several complications, including infection, adnexal torsion, and rupture. Rarely ovarian dermoid cysts can also transform into malignant degeneration. A ruptured teratoma is a rare and life-threatening complication and may arise spontaneously. However, cystic rupture is often secondary to surgical procedures such as ovarian cystectomy, leading to acute peritonitis and surgical emergency. Herein, we report a case of acute peritonitis in a female resulting from ovarian dermoid cyst spillage. Her clinical picture and radiological imaging were consistent with a ruptured ovarian cyst leading to chemical peritonitis, and a histopathological examination confirmed an ovarian dermoid cyst.

    Abstract The primary aim of this study was to evaluate epidemiological characteristics and prevalence of lung disease among e-cigarettes users in the United States. A population-based, cross-sectional survey was performed using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) of 2015-2018. Adults using e-cigarettes (SMQ900), traditional smoking (SMQ020: > 100 cigarettes in lifetime or SMQ040: current cigarettes use), and dual smoking (e-cigarettes and traditional smoking) were identified and compared in their sociodemographic characteristics and prevalence of lung diseases (Asthma: MCQ010 and COPD: MCQ160O). We used the chi square test (categorical variables) and Mann-Whitney test and unpaired-student

    Abstract Daratumumab (dara) belongs to a class of monoclonal antibodies that target CD38 receptors expressed on multiple myeloma (MM) cells. It was first approved for MM treatment in 2015. The efficacy and safety of dara have been reported in many studies. In this analysis, we assessed the outcome of dara addition to standard of care for transplant-eligible newly diagnosed (ND) MM. We conducted a comprehensive search using PubMed, ClinicalTrial.gov, and Embase. Out of 435 articles, we included two randomized clinical trials. We computed the odds ratio (OR) of response rates and risk ratio (RR) of adverse effects using Cochrane RevMan version 5.4. A total of 1,292 patients were enrolled in both trials. The patients were randomized into the control group and the dara group. The dara group included 647 patients and the control group included 645 patients. The CASSIOPEIA trial reported the outcomes using dara, bortezomib (V), thalidomide (T), and dexamethasone (d) versus VTd. The GRIFFIN trial underlined the efficacy of dara, lenalidomide (R), and Vd in the dara group versus RVd in the control group. A pooled analysis of included studies showed an increased overall response rate (OR: 1.60; 95% CI: 1.06-2.41;
