IGNAZ PHILIPP SEMMELWEIS ON COMMEMORATIVE MEDALS | Author : Dr. Konstantin Anatolyevich Bugaevsky | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Annotation
The article presents new materials of the study, dedicated to the reflection in the media of medal art and numismatics of the memory of the famous obstetrician Igna Philipp Semmelweis. This article is a logical continuation of the author’s earlier articles, which presented the history of life, professional and scientific feats of life, which lived in the era of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and made a global contribution to asepsis and antiseptic, as well as the prevention of postpartum septic complications in pregnant women and puerpera. |
| Rituximab-Induced Vasculitis: A Case Report and Literature Review | Author : Dr. Layth Al-Karaja | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Abstract
Introduction
Rituximab is an anti-CD20 chimeric human-murine monoclonal antibody that is effective in the treatment of some autoimmune diseases. Cutaneous vasculitis is an unusual side effect of rituximab, with only a few reported cases worldwide.
Case presentation
A 51-year-old male presented with constitutional symptoms and symmetrical palpable erythematous lesions mainly on the lower extremities after one month of using rituximab. This scenario was very impressive because of the scarcity of this type of drug side effect. However, full investigations including histopathology were done, and after the exclusion of all other causes, a diagnosis of cutaneous vasculitis was made. Fortunately, the symptoms were relieved after drug discontinuation.
Conclusion
Cutaneous vasculitis is rare but a real side effect of rituximab, which usually subsides after stopping the drug. |
| Generative Transformer Model for LLPS-Positive DNA/RNA Design | Author : Dr. Alireza Heidari | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Abstract
DNA/RNA are awesome and thrilling molecules visible as incredible mechanical residences which include power, extensibility, and light seriousness. But, to this point, restricted fashions are to be had to absolutely discover sequence belongings relationships for evaluation and design. Here a custom generative large language version is proposed to enable the layout of new DNA/RNA sequences to satisfy complex combinations of target mechanical residences. The model, pre-trained on a massive set of DNA/RNA sequences, is fine-tuned on 1,000 main DNA/RNA sequences for which related fiber degree mechanical houses exist, to provide an end a give up forward and inverse generative approach this is carried out in a multi-agent (achievement plan(s)/way(s) of attaining desires). Performance is tested/evaluated through (i) An (quiet, less expensive toy / new, unexpected high-quality) evaluation and DNA/RNA kind class for created DNA/RNA sequences through primary nearby matching up in an instant line search device (BLAST) search. (ii) Belongings (method of figuring out the well worth, quantity, or nice of something) and evaluation with almost identical sequences. (iii) Evaluation of resulting molecular structures. (iv) A defined/explained series repeating concept evaluation. This work creates DNA/RNA sequences with asset combinations that dont exist in nature and develops deeper expertise of the mechanistic roles of collection styles in (accomplishing or gaining with attempt) (something that hangs over, affects, and consists of each part of something) key mechanical houses (elastic modulus (E), power, longevity, failure pressure). The model provides a (producing lots with little or no waste) method to enlarge the DNA/RNA dataset, assisting in additional sequence shape analyses of DNA/RNA, and establishes a foundation for (produced through humans/not clearly occurring) DNA/RNA layout and optimization. |
| Acute Coronary Syndrome Secondary to Intraoperative Cocaine Use: A Case Study | Author : Dr. Vikram Anumakonda | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Abstract
Background
Topical cocaine remains a common choice in ENT surgeries despite known cardiovascular risks, including myocardial infarction (MI). We present a case of acute coronary syndrome following intraoperative cocaine use during a functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
Case Presentation
A 55-year-old female, with no significant medical history, underwent FESS under general anesthesia. Shortly after the cocaine administration, she developed a profound cardiovascular collapse, necessitating resuscitative measures. Diagnostic workup revealed ST-segment changes, elevated troponin levels, and severe left ventricular dysfunction consistent with stress cardiomyopathy. Subsequent imaging showed no coronary artery disease, supporting the diagnosis of cocaine-induced MI.
Discussion
Cocaines sympathomimetic effects precipitate MI by increasing myocardial oxygen demand and causing coronary vasoconstriction. Genetic variations affecting cocaine metabolism may influence individual susceptibility to toxicity. Despite guidelines, adverse reactions can occur unpredictably, necessitating vigilance and personalized risk assessment.
Conclusion
This case highlights the serious cardiac risks associated with medical cocaine use and underscores the need for careful patient selection, monitoring, and consideration of alternative agents in sinonasal surgeries. Genetic screening for metabolic variants may aid in optimizing safety. Further research is crucial to refine protocols and enhance safety in cocaine use for medical purposes. |
| Demystifying Mast Cell Activation Syndrome: A Comprehensive Look at Diagnosis, Management, and Geographic Disparities | Author : Dr. Vikram Anumakonda | Abstract | Full Text | Abstract :Abstract
Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) is a challenging condition where mast cells release mediators inappropriately, causing a variety of symptoms across multiple organ systems. Patients often experience spontaneous and episodic anaphylactic reactions affecting at least two different organ systems at the same time. These symptoms stem from the abnormal activation of mast cells, making diagnosis and management difficult. Current treatments, such as antihistamines and mast cell stabilizers, provide symptom relief but do not cure the condition. Theres a pressing need for more research to develop targeted therapies that address the root causes of MCAS.
Involving patients in research significantly improves the accuracy and relevance of the data collected. By adopting a patient-centered approach, we ensure that their experiences and needs are at the core of the research process. This leads to more meaningful outcomes that can better address the challenges faced by those living with MCAS. Future studies should focus on understanding the prevalence of MCAS, improving diagnostic methods, and exploring new treatments to enhance the quality of life for affected individuals. |
