Genotype and Phenotype of Adenosine Deaminase 2 Deficiency: a Report from Saudi Arabia
AbstractAdenosine deaminase 2 deficiency (DADA2), a rare and potentially fatal systemic autoinflammatory disease, is characterized by low or lack of ADA2 activity due toADA2 mutations. DADA2 symptoms are variable and include vasculitis, immunodeficiency, and cytopenia. Minimal data are available from Saudi Arabia. This retrospective study conducted at seven major tertiary medical centers examined the phenotypic and genotypic variabilities, clinical and diagnostic findings, and treatment outcomes among 20 Saudi patients with DADA2 from 14 families. The median age of the study cohort was 9.5  years (4–26 years). The clin...

Hepatitis C Infection as a Risk Factor for Hypertension and Cardiovascular Diseases: An EpiTer Multicenter Study
J Clin Med. 2022 Sep 1;11(17):5193. doi: 10.3390/jcm11175193.ABSTRACTHepatitis C infection is one of the main reasons for liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. In recent years, more and more is being heard about extrahepatic manifestations of the hepatitis C infection including its possible influence on the development of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. In the given work, the frequency analysis of the incidence of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases among 2898 HCV-infected patients treated in Poland and the assessment of their relevance to the HCV genotype and the progression of liver fibrosis can be...

Neurosarcoidosis Presenting with Prominent Periventricular White-Matter Lesions during Steroid Treatment for Autoimmune Hepatitis
A 63-year-old woman under treatment of autoimmune hepatitis presented with headache, memory loss, and somnolence. Three months before admission, the patient experienced liver inflammation relapse after prednisolone (PSL) cessation. Consequently, PSL was resumed and then tapered. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination showed lymphocytic pleocytosis with remarkably reduced glucose and elevated angiotensin-converting enzyme and soluble interleukin-2 receptor levels. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed prominent bilateral periventricular white-matter lesions, hydrocephalus, ischemic stroke with gadolinium enhancement of f...

Liver Transplant in Hemoglobin SC Disease and Autoimmune Hepatitis: A Case Report
We report a case of a 50-year-old man with sickle cell disease genotype SC (HbSC) and cirrhosis secondary to autoimmune hepatitis who underwent liver transplant. His postoperative course included upper extremity deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus, stroke via a patent foramen ovale after a line removal, and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. Fortunately, he is alive with a functioning graft at 10 months after liver transplant. This case highlights the feasibility of liver transplant in sickle cell disease given the support of meticulous multidisciplinary care and the unique aspects of autoimmune hepatitis an...

Mini-Review on SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Neurological Manifestations: A Perspective
CNS Neurol Disord Drug Targets. 2021 Jul 6. doi: 10.2174/1871527320666210706103422. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe coronavirus, also known as SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-19), with its rapid rate of transmission, has progressed with a great impact on respiratory function and mortality worldwide. The nasal cavity is the promising gateway of SARS-CoV-2 to reach the brain via systemic circulatory distribution. Recent reports have revealed that the loss of involuntary process of breathing control into the brainstem that results in death is a signal of neurological involvement. Early neurologica...
