CLINICAL IMAGEAn 84-year-old woman with anemia and a 4-week history of discomfort on the right-side abdomen received treatment for hypertension, dyslipidemia, osteoporosis.She had been treated traditional Chinese drug Kami-shoyo-san (Tsumura & Co., Tokyo, Japan) several years neuropsychiatric symptoms secondary to menopause.Physical examination revealed soft no tenderness.
Objective Previous cervical spine imaging decision rules have been based on positive findings plain X-ray and are limited by lack of specificity, age restrictions complicated algorithms. We previously derived validated a clinical rule (Rule 1) for detecting injury (CSI) CT in single-centre study. This recommended patients with (1) GCS score <14, (2) 14–15 posterior tenderness or neurological deficit, (3) ≥60 years fall down stairs, (4) <60 injured motorcycle collision fallen from...
Herein, we report the interim vaccine effectiveness (VE) of a quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine, during 2019/2020 season, in Japan. We conducted retrospective observational cohort study 381 patients aged ≥15 years, who were enrolled with like illnesses and examined via rapid diagnostic test, at Ambulatory Care unit National Center for Global Health Medicine Tokyo, Japan, from beginning October 2019 to end January 2020. VE was estimated using test-negative design. calculated as (1 –...
• The occurrence of fasciitis after COVID-19 vaccination is rare. BNT162b2 vaccine can cause distant to the injection site. use steroids not essential for treatment vaccine-associated fasciitis.
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tick-borne infectious disease caused by Dabie bandavirus (formerly SFTS virus, SFTSV). Its manifestations during the convalescent phase have not been widely described. We report a patient presenting hematospermia, fatigue, myalgia, alopecia, insomnia, and depression recovery of SFTS. Since these symptoms are observed in patients viral hemorrhagic fevers, there might be common mechanisms between other fevers. Close monitoring...
【目的】鈍的頭頸部外傷患者において,頸椎CT撮影の新たなclinical decision rule(CDR)を作成することを目的とした。【方法】Derivation研究の対象は2008年4月1日~2010年8月14日に当院へ救急搬送された頭頸部外傷患者のうち頸椎CTを施行した1,076症例,Validation研究の対象は2010年8月15日~12月31日に当院へ救急搬送された頭頸部外傷患者887例とし,診療録および救急患者データベースから後ろ向きに情報を得た。頸椎損傷の定義は骨折もしくは脱臼とした。頸椎損傷の有無と相関する因子を解析した後に,感度100%となるような新たなCDRを導けるか検討した。【結果】単変量解析では,年齢,後頸部痛の有無,神経学的異常所見の有無,来院時のGlasgow coma...
Cervical spinal cord injury (CCI) without bony (CCIWOBI) is more frequent among Asian than Caucasian populations and shows various extents of severity. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) useful for detecting intramedullary lesions, ligament injuries intervertebral disk hernias, but some patients with mild CCIWOBI do not show clinically significant abnormalities on MRI. To date, the cost-benefit ratio performing MRI in addition to computed tomography (CT) unclear. We have developed a clinical...
Introduction: Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) has become an effective treatment option for pressure ulcers. However, there is scarce evidence about cause the variety of wound healing rate despite optimal use NPWT Methods: We performed negative therapy following type ulcers (PrUs) associated with severely septic patients from 2012 to 2013: 1) grade IV PrUs; and 2) PrUs area >15 cm2 (approximately equal 0.5% body surface area). Post-hoc analysis was subsequently performed. After...

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a genetic disorder of the vasculature, characterized by epistaxis, and arteriovenous malformations in multiple organs. We herein report 49-year-old woman with history early-onset myocardial infarction intracranial aneurysms, whom we incidentally detected hepatic vascular abnormalities. subsequently diagnosed her HHT after discovering gastrointestinal telangiectases pulmonary fistula along recurrent epistaxis. Whole-exome sequencing revealed...
