Liquorice is well known to inhibit the renal tubular enzyme 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, causing a syndrome of apparent mineralocorticoid excess. This rare condition, usually resulting from chronic ingestion liquorice-containing products. The case report relates an 84-year-old woman with hypertension who developed profound weakness following liquorice ‘binge’ which, our knowledge, only second reported metabolic disturbance as result acute ingestion. differential diagnosis hypokalaemia...
This is the first article in a new series on basic surgery, inlcuding suturing, and wound management from plastic surgery point of view. Ben Taylor Ardeshir Bayat explain how to choose right suture
Summary We report two patients with the Churg–Strauss syndrome who were found to have decreased cholinesterase activity despite normal phenotypes. Suspicion of abnormal sensitivity suxamethonium in first case was raised after prolonged paralysis under anaesthesia. The findings second incidental during course intensive care treatment. Both received immunosuppressive therapy. Differentiation between effects this and disease process itself cannot be established.

Abstract The recent proliferation of point‐of‐care ultrasonography (POCUS) in the clinical practice many medical specialties has exposed persistent barriers to education, training and standardisation. Specialist curriculums are already overwhelming, having grossly insufficient time available for specialist trainees small number trainers alike incorporate POCUS into postgraduate education. logical solution overcome these could be basic education undergraduate university curriculums,...

In the fourth part of our series, Ben Taylor and Ardeshir Bayat explain first few steps on reconstructive ladder -- primary closure skin grafts
The pharmacokinetics of oral controlled release morphine were studied in 10 patients to investigate the effect two different anaesthetic techniques on its absorption and metabolism. Five received general anaesthesia with neuromuscular blockade; remainder lumbar epidural analgesia but without blocking agents. Blood samples collected throughout peri-operative period for estimation plasma concentration using radio immunoassay techniques, one specific morphine, other less crossreacting...

Trauma is leading cause of death among people under the age 40.[1] Accidental hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy represent lethal triad in severely injured patients. [2] There good evidence that unintended hypothermia worsens outcomes after major trauma.[3] We aimed to audit frequency seriously patients presenting a UK trauma centre.
In the third part of our series, Ben Taylor and Ardeshir Bayat explain local anaesthetics. Which anaesthetic should you use why? And what are risks?
