Correlation Between Carotid Intima Media Thickness and Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
CONCLUSION: CIMT is increased in NAFLD patients. Increase in CIMT is significantly correlated with increasing grades of NAFLD. Hence CIMT can be used as screening tests in NALFD patients to assess cardiovascular risks.PMID:35443534

Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid-associated severe neutropenia
A 72-year-old man presented with an abnormal blood count and was admitted. His history included hypertension and hyperlipidaemia with an old myocardial infarction and mild stroke; liver cirrhosis due to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with hypersplenism and oesophageal varices but no ascites, oedema or bleeding; and benign prostatic hypertrophy. His medications (unchanged for years) included furosemide, spironolactone, bisoprolol, rosuvastatin, alfuzosin and omeprazole. Two weeks prior, he was discharged from our department after left leg cellulitis and Streptococcus pyogenes bacteraemia responsive to parenteral clind...

Prestroke physical activity and outcomes after intracerebral haemorrhage in comparison to ischaemic stroke: protocol for a matched cohort study (part of PAPSIGOT)
Introduction Piling evidence suggests that a higher level of prestroke physical activity can decrease stroke severity, and reduce the risk of poststroke mortality. However, prior studies have only included ischaemic stroke cases, or a majority of such. We aim to investigate how premorbid physical activity influences admission stroke severity and poststroke mortality in patients with intracerebral haemorrhage, compared with ischaemic stroke. A prespecified analysis plan counteract some inherent biases in observational studies, and promotes transparency. Methods and analysis This is a statistical analysis protocol for a mat...
