Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious, airborne disease that typically affects the lungs. TB is caused by a bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. If the infection is not treated quickly, the bacteria can travel through the bloodstream to infect other organs and tissues.
Sometimes, the bacteria will travel to the meninges, which are the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Infected meninges can result in a life-threatening condition known as meningeal tuberculosis. Meningeal tuberculosis is also known as tubercular meningitis or TB meningitis
1. A 21-year-old female student presented with a chief complaint of fever for 20 hours, nausea, vomiting and headache. On examination, she had a fever of 38.7°C and tenderness in the epigastrium.
2. Laboratory findings showed thrombocytopenia and leukopenia.
3. The working diagnosis was suspected viral infection as the cause of the fever, based on the sudden onset of symptoms and negative physical exam findings. Further NS1 testing was recommended to evaluate for possible dengue infection.
This document summarizes the admission of a 27-year-old female patient with a 3-day history of intermittent fever and associated symptoms. On examination, she was afebrile but had direct epigastric tenderness. Tests showed a positive Dengue NS1 result. She was admitted with an impression of Dengue fever and started on IV fluids, antipyretics, and antacids. Dengue fever is caused by a flavivirus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes. It presents with a febrile phase and may progress to a critical phase with plasma leakage requiring fluid management. Treatment involves fluid resuscitation.

After 25 days in the hospital, she received a diagnosis of leptospirosis with multi-organ failure and intracranial hemorrhages.
A 48-year-old female presented with left foot gangrene, drug-induced Cushing's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and type 2 diabetes. She reported pain and swelling in her lower limbs and joints for many years. On examination, she had a contracted left knee, moon face, and skin changes. Tests showed abnormal liver enzymes and blood sugar levels. She was diagnosed and treated with antibiotics, analgesics, corticosteroids, disease-modifying drugs, and hypoglycemic medications. Her third left toe was surgically removed due to gangrene. She was counseled on medication adherence and lifestyle changes.
A 55-year-old male presented to the emergency room with swelling and numbness in his left leg after being bitten by a snake while gardening that morning. Tests revealed decreased hemoglobin and platelets, elevated coagulation markers, and electrolyte abnormalities indicating disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) from the snake bite. He was given oxygen, fluids, steroids, tetanus shot, anti-venom, and blood products to treat the DIC but his condition deteriorated and he died after being transferred to another hospital. The take-home message is that abnormal or prolonged bleeding after a snake bite could indicate DIC.

Adult-onset Still's disease is a form of rheumatoid arthritis that was characterized by Bywaters in 1971. Its main feature is a combination of symptoms such as high fever, cutaneous rash during fever peaks, joint and muscle pain, lymph node enlargement, increased white cell count especially polymorphonuclear neutrophils and abnormalities of liver metabolism. None of these symptoms is sufficient to establish the diagnosis and infact may be present in several other diseases such as neoplastic and infectious diseases. Thus AOSD is a “diagnosis of exclusion”.

This document provides guidance on interpreting chest radiographs from Kristopher Maday, a physician assistant. It lists steps for reading chest x-rays, recognizes common pathologies, and focuses the assessment based on history and physical exam rather than trying to interpret like a radiologist. Examples are then provided of chest x-ray findings from patient cases with relevant history, physical exam findings, and radiographic impressions. Resources for further radiograph interpretation education are included at the end.
This document discusses fever of unknown origin (FUO). It begins by defining fever and noting that while fever is a common symptom, in some cases the underlying cause cannot be easily diagnosed. It then covers approaches to diagnosing FUO, which involve careful history taking, physical examination, screening tests, and more specific diagnostic tests if needed. Common causes of FUO are listed as infections (40%), malignancies (25%), and autoimmune diseases (15%). The document provides details on evaluating and diagnosing nosocomial FUO and HIV-associated FUO. Imaging tests like CT scans can help detect conditions like tuberculosis in some cases. The overall goal is to thoroughly investigate FUO through clinical and diagnostic means to reach a diagnosis and

Case Report : Integrating Review Inflammation and Commorbid diseasesSoroy Lardo
Diabetes is associated with atherosclerosis and COPD contributed to the chronic inflammation within the systemic vascular. Management of CVI with diabetes and COPD requires multi-disciplinary approach
Fungal infections can occur due to the increasing use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and patients with immunodeficiency. Some pathogens, such as Cryptococcus, Candida,and Fusarium, rarely cause serious diseases in the normal host, while other endemic fungi, such as Histoplasmosis, Coccidiodes,and Paracoccidiodes can cause disease in a normal host, but has a tendency to be aggressive on immunocompromise.
Candida species are normal flora that may be an apportunistic pathogen. Candidiasis occurs in some diseases such as gastrointestinal mucosal esophagitis, a fungal disease associated with the use of catheters and in - patients who have mucosal damage or obtain broad – spectrum antibiotics. Other candidiasis consist of skin candidiasis, funguria candidiasis, disseminated candidiasis and endocarditis candidiasis. Candidemia is the fourth most common cause of nosocomial bloodstream infections in the United States and in many of the developed country. Invasive candidiasis has a significant impact on patient outcomes, and it has been estimated that the mortality of invasive candidiasis is as high as 47%. The mortality rates are 15%-25% for adults and 10%-15% for neonates and children. Diagnostic approach to fungal infection is a priority. The knowledge of the changes in epidemiology and risk factors for fungal infections, has become the main reference to measure optimal treatment of fungal infections.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
The skin is the largest organ and its health plays a vital role among the other sense organs. The skin concerns like acne breakout, psoriasis, or anything similar along the lines, finding a qualified and experienced dermatologist becomes paramount.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
