Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin (NHL) globally, while primary mediastinal (PMBCL) a rare subtype that may lead to central airway obstruction by compressing or invading airways. Prompt management crucial, as severe cases can be life-threatening if left untreated. This study reports case 27-year-old man with chronic cough, weight loss, and computed tomography (CT) chest revealing anterior tumor an extension into neck lung causing compression...
Background: Sarcopenia, or loss of skeletal muscle mass, has been associated with poor outcomes (e.g., functional decline, increased mortality, and low quality life), but its role in CTEPH remains unclear. The psoas index (PMI) is a validated measure sarcopenia. We investigated the incidence sarcopenia using PMI CTEPH. Methods: Retrospective analysis single-center cohort patients an available computed tomography abdomen pelvis (CTAP). was measured at L3 level CTAP then calculated formula...
Spinal traction is a time-honored method for the treatment of disc protrusion, degenerative disease, and joint dysfunction. Effective not as easy or simple to administer it may appear. Many variations technique exist, some questionable value. It must be emphasized that spinal only part total management-treatment regimen, which includes other forms physical therapy. Without management program, traction, like many empiric methods, has little chance long-range benefit. Consequently, physicians...
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is effective in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma and results a unique toxicity profile, namely cytokine release syndrome (CRS) immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. The hyper-inflammatory state associated with these toxicities has been suggested to increase the risk of thrombosis. We conducted retrospective analysis patients treated axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) assess rate thrombosis axi-cel from time CAR infusion...
The aim of this article is to present and discuss: 1) types lumbar traction; 2) effects 3) indications contraindications for 4) effective traction techniques. There a review important points that have been presented in earlier literature, as well the introduction new ideas concepts. A portion deals with rationale-of using treatment herniated disc other spinal nerve root syndromes. considerable discussion poundages necessary achieve therapeutic results. Detailed description positioning...
Once patients are diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension it is important to identify the correct diagnostic group as will have implications on disease state management. Pulmonary increasingly and treated in general medical practices; however, evidence-based guidelines recommend evaluation treatment centers for accurate diagnosis appropriate recommendations. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 509 random 18 years older who were evaluated our clinic from January 2005 December 2018....
The aim of this article is to present and discuss the classification musculoskeletal spinal conditions. major classifications presented are muscle, joint, nerve root. Many different conditions under each these with emphasis on those commonly seen in a physical therapy clinic. clinical picture condition showing significant findings history, structural, mobility, neurological, palpation exams. Treatment suggestions help clarify differences between conditions, stress importance evaluation...
Objective/Background: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell is an effective therapy in relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphomas that, due to its unique toxicities, often requires escalation of care the intensive unit (ICU) setting. C-reactive protein (CRP) and ferritin are serum inflammatory markers associated with onset persistence CAR T-cell-related toxicity. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 34 patients treated axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi- cel) who were divided into two groups:...
The aims of this study were to assess whether a relationship between anti-SSA-52 and interstitial lung disease (ILD) can be further defined, enhance screening, detection, potentially guide treatment.
Hydralazine is a vasodilator used for the management of hypertension, heart failure, and hypertensive emergencies in pregnancy. It has been implicated causation drug-induced lupus erythematosus (DLE) rarely with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), which may present as pulmonary-renal syndrome be rapidly fatal. Herein, we describe case hydralazine-associated AAV presenting acute kidney injury use early bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) serial aliquots to aid diagnosis. Our highlights how, correct...
Many health care practitioners believe lumbosacral supports and braces can be used effectively in treatment prevention of musculoskeletal disorders the lumbar spine.Ninety-nine percent 3,410 orthopedic surgeons surveyed United States reported prescribing spinal orthoses.1 While there is no hard scientific evidence clinical effectiveness as a group, are retrospective studies that have documented acceptance by patients improvement symptoms from 30% to 80% cases.2-4The lower region particular...
