Beh & #231;et & #39;s disease-induced massive small intestinal bleeding successfully treated with adalimumab
PH Liu, TH Tsai, KJ Yeo, JW ChouJournal of Postgraduate Medicine 2023 69(3):176-178
We herein report a case of Behçet's disease in a 27-year-old female who suffered from generalized skin rashes for one week. After hospitalization, massive bloody stools accompanying hypovolemic shock occurred. Emergency abdominal computed tomography-angiography failed to detect the bleeding source. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy also demonstrated no definite bleeding points. Ileocolonoscopy showed multiple large and deep ulcers with some blood coating and mild oozing in the terminal ileum. We initially performed epinephr...

Delayed immune-mediated hepatitis after three cycles of pembrolizumab for the treatment of sinonasal melanoma
S Kang, HJ Lee, HJ LeeJournal of Postgraduate Medicine 2023 69(3):172-175
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are monoclonal antibodies that induce the anti-tumor effects of T cells by targeting co-inhibitory immune checkpoints. The development of ICIs has revolutionized the clinical practice of oncology, leading to significant improvements in outcomes; therefore, ICIs are now standard care for various types of solid cancers. Immune-related adverse events, the unique toxicity profiles of ICIs, usually develop 4–12 weeks after initiation of ICI treatment; however, some cases can occur >3 months afte...

Porphyrias: Uncommon disorders masquerading as common childhood diseases
A Chakraborty, M Muranjan, S Karande, V KharkarJournal of Postgraduate Medicine 2023 69(3):164-171
Porphyrias are a rare group of inborn errors of metabolism due to defects in the heme biosynthetic pathway. The biochemical hallmark is the overproduction of porphyrin precursors and porphyrin species. Afflicted patients present with a myriad of symptoms causing a diagnostic odyssey. Symptoms often overlap with those of common diseases and may be overlooked unless there is heightened clinical suspicion. We are reporting clinical features and diagnostic challenges in four pediatric patients having variegate porphyria, congeni...

Total creatine concentration in the skeletal muscle and brain of long COVID patients were significantly lower when compared to the reference values for the general population, as measured with proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 1.5-T in vastus medialis muscle, thalamus, and three bilateral cerebral locations across the white and gray matter.

Evaluation of antiglaucoma drug treatment awareness and patient-reported medication adherence: Determinants of glaucoma management
Conclusion: POAG patients did have adequate treatment awareness with good self-reported medication adherence and performance of eye drop instillation technique. Around 25% patients lacked awareness; hence, reinforcement education programs on medication regimens need to be implemented. (Source: Journal of Postgraduate Medicine)
