Survival Analysis of Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients after Frontline Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in a Real-Life Setting
CONCLUSION: ASCT is a feasible, safe, and potent strategy that provides a prolonged median OS and PFS in NDMM patients. This approach can be implemented in low-income countries.PMID:38511422 | DOI:10.14712/18059694.2024.4 (Source: Acta Medica: Hradec Kralove)

Gait Disturbance … of Red Herrings, Oranges, and Lemons - A Case of Missed Vitamin C Deficiency and Lessons Learnt
Acta Medica (Hradec Kralove). 2023;66(3):122-127. doi: 10.14712/18059694.2024.5.ABSTRACTVitamin C deficiency resulting in scurvy, is considered to be a rare nutritional disorder in developed countries, thus leading to underdiagnosis with exposure to unnecessary investigations and delay in appropriate treatment. The wide myriad of clinical signs and symptoms with which vitamin C deficiency can present (including haematological, musculoskeletal and vague constitutional symptoms that overlap with other common medical conditions), also contributes to this diagnostic challenge. Despite scurvy being habitually thought to be pres...

Triple Combination with Direct Acting Antivirals in the Treatment of Hepatitis C Does not Prolong the QT Interval
CONCLUSION: The study demonstrates that a combination therapy of 3 antiviral drugs does not significantly prolong the QTc interval and does not cause severe pathological changes on the ECG. Patients undergoing this treatment are not at risk of developing heart disease as an undesirable side effect.PMID:38511419 | DOI:10.14712/18059694.2024.1 (Source: Acta Medica: Hradec Kralove)

The Role of Frailty Scores to Predict the Outcomes in Non Operative Treatment of Valgus Impacted Neck of Femur Fractures
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that CFS, AMTS and NHFS can be used as predictors when considering non-operative treatment for the valgus-impacted neck of femur fracture. Patients who are frail, demented and high risk based on the NHFS have higher success rates with non-operative treatment.PMID:38511421 | DOI:10.14712/18059694.2024.3 (Source: Acta Medica: Hradec Kralove)
