The best results for both sensitivity and specificity in correlation with the sample of the study were for PVR more than 200 ml. Measuring the post-void urine volume using a bladder scan is an essential tool in the diagnosis of CES. There is a significant correlation between the PVR volume more than 200 ml and higher sensitivity and specificity.Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LCM), also known as neoplastic meningitis, is a rare entity. It is generally seen in solid tumors. Ovarian cancers can infrequently cause LCM. The clinical presentation is variable. Diagnosis is made by a lumbar puncture that shows malignant cells in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and usually correlates with imaging findings. Given the low individual sensitivities of lumbar puncture (55%) and magnetic resonance imaging (70%), it is recommended to combine both modalities for optimal diagnostic results. Treatment options vary depending on the type of primary carcinoma, however, the prognosis is guarded. We report a case of LCM in a patient with stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer in remission, which became a diagnostic challenge due to a lack of imaging findings.Sepsis still remains a big challenge in patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) despite stellar advances made in the field of medicine. We can achieve better clinical outcomes in patients by diagnosing sepsis earlier. Procalcitonin (PCT), an inflammatory biomarker, has shown promising results in this regard. Therefore, this systematic review was done to assess the use of PCT in diagnosing and predicting severe outcomes in patients admitted to ICU and to assess if introducing PCT as a routine biochemical tool in hospitals would be helpful to achieve better clinical course in ICU patients. To identify relevant articles, we searched PubMed, Google Scholar, and references of included articles. Eligible studie
