A Case of Infective Endocarditis Caused by Streptococcus sanguinis Resulting in Stroke, Ruptured Infected Pseudoaneurysm of Superior Mesenteric Artery, and Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis
Intern Med. 2023 Jun 21. doi: 10.2169/internalmedicine.2017-23. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 71-year-old-man was admitted to our hospital with a cerebral embolism and diagnosed with infective endocarditis (IE) caused by Streptococcus sanguinis. Mitral valve replacement was performed. About one month later, he experienced sudden abdominal pain and shock due to a ruptured infected mesenteric artery pseudoaneurysm. Forty-four days after abdominal surgery, he presented with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies.

A Patient with a History of Right-Sided Stroke and Hemiplegia, in a Wheelchair, Presents with a Complaint of Upper Left Tooth Pain
Patients with a history of stroke often present with numerous neurologic deficits and varying degrees of disability. Ambulation problems requiring the use of a wheelchair can make accessing and receiving dental care difficult for these patients. Side effects from medications can compromise their oral health and complicate care. Possible dexterity limitations decrease their ability to maintain their oral health. Innovative care plans and adaptations may be needed to accommodate the needs of these patients but care generally can be provided safely and effectively in the outpatient dental setting.

Septic Shock From Pan-Spinal Epidural Abscess Attributed to Recent Acupuncture and Trigger Point Injections for Acute Lower Back Pain in a Previously Undiagnosed Diabetic Patient: A Case Report
We report the case of a 60-year-old woman with undiagnosed diabetes mellitus who presented to the hospital with a complaint of progressive altered mental status for the past two days. Eight days prior to presentation, the patient tripped over a pillow at home and developed mildly nagging, acute lower back pain. Upon the recommendation of her friends, she underwent two sessions of acupuncture around the lumbar area on days six and five prior to being brought to the hospital. She also saw her primary care physician on day three prior to presentation, who performed a history and physical examination and, after feeling that sh...

Feasibility of a serious game system including a tangible object for post stroke upper limb rehabilitation: a pilot randomized clinical study
ConclusionThe Ergotact system for upper limb rehabilitation was well accepted and induced participant satisfaction. It complies with current recommendations for people with stroke to autonomously perform intensive active exercises in a fun context, in addition to conventional rehabilitation sessions with therapists.Clinical trial registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03166020?term=NCT03166020&draw=2&rank=1, identifier NCT03166020.

Effects of community ambulation training with 3D-printed ankle –foot orthosis on gait and functional improvements: a case series of three stroke survivors
IntroductionMany of the patients using ankle–foot orthoses (AFOs) experience poor fit, pain, discomfort, dislike of the aesthetics of the device, and excessive range of motion restrictions, which diminish the use of AFOs. Although 3D-printed ankle–foot orthoses (3D-AFOs) affect patient satisfaction and overall gait functions such as ankle moment, joint range of motion (ROM), and temporal-spatial parameters, the material properties and manufacturing process of 3D-AFOs are still diverse; the clinical effects of community ambulation using 3D-AFOs and satisfaction in patients with stroke are poorly understood.Case descript...

COVID-19 Can Cause New Cholesterol Problems. What to Know
Not long after the start of the global coronavirus pandemic, it was apparent that many people infected with SARS-CoV-2 were developing persistent and, in some cases, debilitating health problems. Now known widely as post-Covid syndrome or Long COVID, the most common symptoms of this condition are fatigue, attention problems, headaches, muscle or joint pain, and weakness. But those are just the start. Medical researchers have also linked SARS-CoV-2 to lingering complications in multiple organs and systems, and some recent work has found that new-onset cholesterol problems may be an under-recognized but common complication o...

A measurement for chronic pain is a scientific holy grail – and we’re getting closer | Abdul-Ghaaliq Lalkhen
People who have chronic pain without a visible injury are often not believed, but new research can help visualise that painMost people, including doctors, do not appreciate that the organ that produces pain is the brain. A broken bone, damaged tissue or a bleeding wound is often the focus, but the experience of pain is the sum total of more than just the physical injury – it is the result of information sent from our nerves being filtered through an individual’s unique psychological makeup, genetics, gender, beliefs, expectations, motivations and emotional context. Pain is therefore an individual experience, and often ...

Brain study offers new treatment hope for chronic pain
Researchers have identified an area of the brain linked to chronic pain in a study that could lead the way for the discovery of new pain treatments. This is the first time that scientists have been able to record pain-related data from inside the brains of individuals with chronic pain disorders caused by stroke or...
