and highlights the importance of maintaining malignancy on the differential diagnosis for sudden arthritis.With the advent of medical technology, coronary angiography is a common practice to evaluate patient for coronary artery disease. Normally, patients undergoing angiogram receive antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and platelet aggregation inhibitor agents. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor inhibitors are a type of platelets antiaggregant agents that can cause severe thrombocytopenia in very few cases. We present a case of a 69-year-old female who presented with chest pain, underwent an angiography and had two stents placed. She was administered tirofiban during angiogram that caused acute severe thrombocytopenia decreasing her platelets count from 224 to 2 k/mm3 within 1 day. Patients platelets gradually recovered after trial of steroid and platelets transfusion. Antiplatelets (Aspirin and Clopidogrel) were resumed; however, patient's platelets remained stable. Current evidence shows that telemetry monitoring is commonly overutilized for ' diseases such as COPD exacerbation, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism and sepsis. This issue has not been addressed clearly in the recent American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines and no standard recommendations on the use of telemetry in non-cardiac conditions exist; therefore, clinicians continue to make such decisions based on personal preferences.As medical residency is an important phase during which young physicians develop clinical skills and habits for their future practice, the aim of this study was to understand the prevalent trends related to inappropriate telemetry use amongst the medical residents at a community hospital and the associated factors which influence the use of telemetry monitoring in non-cardiac patients. All the residents undergoing internal medicine training at a community hospital were surveyed with the help of a questionnaire regarding the utility of telemetry in patients admitted with condl resources to the clinical staff at every level along with other system-based strategies. Majority of the medical residents overutilize telemetry in non-cardiac conditions due to lack of knowledge, perceived sense of security and inappropriate trends set by their colleagues. In order to abolish these tendencies, we propose the provision of adequate educational resources to the clinical staff at every level along with other system-based strategies.Intravesical instillation of Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin (BCG), a live-attenuated-strain of Mycobacterium bovis, is an established treatment for superficial bladder carcinoma. Although generally well tolerated, 1/15,000 patients can develop life-threatening disseminated-BCG-infection typically soon after the procedure, a condition colloquially termed BCG-osis. Side-effects of intravesical BCG instillation including fever, chills, fatigue are common but BCG-osis is rare and severe, oftentimes requiring intensive care unit admission and triple anti-TB-therapy as in this case. It is therefore important for clinicians to recognize this possibility as the absence of specific signs and symptoms, coupled with the fastidious nature of the Mycobacteria, pose a diagnostic dilemma in the acute setting. Our case highlights this potential rare iatrogenic side effect of intravesical BCG treatment and the risk associated with non-treatment of BCG-osis.We report a case of an African American woman who presented with fatigue, generalized weakness, and hypophosphatemia in the setting of a recent hospitalization for severe, symptomatic iron deficiency anemia requiring ferric carboxymaltose infusions. Parental iron is indicated in numerous clinical settings including chronic kidney disease, inflammatory bowel disease, and iron deficiency anemia. Ferric carboxymaltose is one of the most common forms of parental iron infusions used due to administration procedure and minimal reported side effects. The most common side effect reported is a transient decrease in serum phosphate. This case highlights the necessity of monitoring serum phosphate in the setting of parental iron infusions, especially ferric carboxymaltose, and when severe hypophosphatemia occurs management includes intravenous phosphorous and calcitriol.is a gram-positive bacillus in the female genital tract believed to be a commensal organism that inhibits the growth of more virulent pathogens. Prevotella bivia is a gram-negative bacillus species also typically commensal in the female genital tract. Lactobacillus as the primary causative agent in perinephric abscesses and bacteremia has been documented, albeit very uncommon and opportunistic. Prevotella bivia is not classically associated with perinephric abscesses but has been implicated in rare cases of pelvic inflammatory disease and tubo-ovarian abscesses. In this report, we present a 26-year-old immunocompetent woman with a recent history of nephrolithiasis treated with lithotripsy, ureteral stent placement and removal, and antibiotics who was admitted for fever and severe right flank pain. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/mi-3-menin-mll-inhibitor.html Imaging showed a right-sided renal and perinephric abscesses colonized by Lactobacillus jensenii and Prevotella bivia. Blood cultures were also positive for Lactobacillus species. Per literature review, intravenous ceftriaxone and metronidazole were administered with successful resolution of abscesses and negative repeat blood cultures. To our knowledge, this is the first case of simultaneous renal system abscesses caused by Lactobacillus and Prevotella species. Nephrolithiasis and prior antibiotics likely contributed to the opportunistic pathogenesis in this otherwise immunocompetent patient.Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is caused by Human Herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), and it affects 15 times more common in men than women. It has varied clinical presentation from classic, endemic, organ transplant-related, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related. Clinical features of pulmonary KS might be challenging to distinguish from pneumonia in immunocompromised patients and could lead to diagnostic challenges. Hence Pulmonary KS should also be considered in the differential when HIV-infected patients develop rapidly progressive respiratory symptoms after the initiation of glucocorticoid therapy and immunocompromised not responding to antibiotic treatment for pneumonia, especially when CD4 10,000. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for a better outcome and prevent morbidity and mortality. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is the only proven therapy to prevent Kaposi sarcoma. We report the case of a young woman who presented with symptoms of pneumonia and was later found to have pulmonary KS (PKS).
