Lupus Vulgaris of the Knee in a Young Male Child: An Uncommon Location for an Uncommon Disease – A Case Report and Review of Literature
Authors: Poddar Gopal Prasad , Kalawat Riya , Siddiqui Moin Ahmad , Bansal Bhavika 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Lupus vulgaris (LV) is the most common form of cutaneous tuberculosis seen in India. It is a chronic and progressive infectious disease that is seen in a person with moderate to high degree of immunity. It usually originates from an underlying focus that may be present in a bone, joint, or a lymph node. It may arise by contiguous spread of the disease from underlying affected tissue, by hematogenous or by lymphatic spread. The most common sites of presentation in India are the extremities and trunk. LV of the knee is an uncommon site and is seldom reported. Here, we present the case of an 8-year-old boy with LV over the right knee.

Authors: Sudan Eshmeet , Ranjan Shivani , Bhat Jasim Rashid , Dogra Naina Kala 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Congenital syphilis is an infectious disease caused by the transmission of the bacterium Treponema pallidum from an infected mother to her fetus during pregnancy. Despite effective screening and treatment protocols, congenital syphilis continues to afflict newborns worldwide, leading to serious complications such as stillbirth, prematurity, low birth weight, and a range of congenital abnormalities. We put forth a rare case of asymptomatic late congenital syphilis following Kassowitz law. This abstract highlights the importance of comprehensive prenatal care, including early detection and treatment of maternal syphilis, to mitigate the devastating impact of congenital syphilis on both maternal and child health.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
Congenital melanocytic nevi, as the name suggests, are present since birth. They are called giant congenital melanocytic nevus (GCMN) when the size exceeds >20 cm in diameter. Due to its unsightly appearance, there is major psychosocial impact on the patient and the family. GCMN in due course of time may give rise to malignant melanoma not only in the GCMN but also in the leptomeninges. Clinical variants of GCMN include nevus spilus type, which is a rare variant. In addition to that with time, GCMN may continue to be affected with benign nodules. We present a rare case of a nevus spilus type of GCMN with classic proliferative nodules associated with intraparenchymal melanosis in brain, leading to seizures.
Point-of-care Ultrasound for Diagnosis and Management of Chronic Inflammatory Monoarthropathy of the Shoulder after Combined Influenza and COVID-19 Vaccination: A Case Report
Authors: Tay Matthew Rong Jie , Sangha Harpreet 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) is a rare but preventable injury, resulting in severe shoulder pain. It is thought to be due to improper needle placement into the surrounding shoulder structures and can result in serious and debilitating injury. This case report describes a patient who developed a rare case of chronic inflammatory nonseptic monoarthropathy after combined influenza and COVID-19 vaccination. The diagnosis was suspected using point-of-care ultrasound, with findings of cortical erosions of the humeral head, which was confirmed with magnetic resonance imaging. After a primary autoimmune condition was excluded, the patient underwent ultrasound-guided intra-articular corticosteroid injection of the shoulder, which provided good pain relief. The role of ultrasound has not been reported in SIRVA-related conditions. Point-of-care ultrasound can potentially be useful in the evaluation and management of SIRVA-related shoulder pathologies.
Advances in intraoperative imaging in retinal diseases: A narrative review
Authors: Rocha Jorge , Fuganti Raphaela M. , Casella Antonio M. 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This review explores recent technological advances in intraoperative imaging during retinal disease surgeries, focusing on their applicability in clinical practice and impact on surgical outcomes. A literature search identified studies discussing new imaging technologies, their advantages over conventional methods, relevant case studies, and literature reviews. Exclusion criteria included studies unrelated to retinal diseases, imaging technologies not suitable for intraoperative use, outdated articles, and nonscientific reports. Significant advancements, particularly with optical coherence tomography (OCT), have transformed retinal surgery by providing high-resolution images and real-time feedback, enhancing surgical precision and patient safety. However, the high costs of these technologies remain a barrier to widespread adoption, despite their potential to set new standards in ophthalmic surgery.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
Wide field retinal imaging has emerged as a transformative technology over the last few decades, revolutionizing our ability to visualize the intricate landscape of the retina. By capturing expansive retinal areas, these techniques offer a panoramic view going beyond traditional imaging methods. In this review, we explore the significance of retinal imaging-based biomarkers to help diagnose ocular and systemic conditions. We discuss quantitative biomarkers, including ischemic index, nonperfusion area and more, and their application in diabetic retinopathy, central retinal vein occlusion, neurodegenerative diseases, and more. In addition, we outline qualitative biomarkers such as choroidal venous hyperpermeability and intervortex anastomoses. The role of wide field fundus autofluorescence in assessing hereditary retinal diseases is also emphasized. Standardized imaging procedures, professional collaboration, and validation across a range of clinical circumstances are necessary for the effective use of these biomarkers. They have the potential to transform disease identification, risk assessment, and customize therapy.

Positive Outcomes of a Proactive Iron Deficiency Anemia Program in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Mohammad AlAmr  
Published: December 2024

Purpose: Iron deficiency anemia is a prevalent health concern globally, impacting a significant portion of women and children worldwide, as estimated by the WHO to be 41% and 27%, respectively. This global concern is mirrored in Saudi Arabia, where IDA is particularly prevalent among infants and children. The implications of IDA are far-reaching, potentially leading to severe consequences such as suboptimal mental and motor development in young children, increased risk of maternal mortality, and decreased economic productivity in adults. Therefore, understanding the prevalence and risk factors associated with IDA is crucial not only for effective treatment but also for the development of robust prevention strategies. Recent studies in Saudi Arabia have underscored the urgency of this issue, revealing a high prevalence of IDA in infants aged 6-24 months.
Materials and Methods: This study employed a retrospective data analysis approach to identify and proactively manage adult patients with iron deficiency anemia. Data were extracted from the hospital's electronic health records system, VIDA, focusing on outpatients meeting specific criteria.
Findings: Over a six-month period in 2023, a 665 patients were identified as potentially eligible for the proactive IDA management program, 80 % were females and 20 % are males on the bases of the pre-defined criteria. A 30 % of these nominated cases successfully secured appointments within the family medicine clinics and subsequently received appropriate treatment for their iron deficiency anemia. This indicates the program's effectiveness in facilitating access to care for a notable portion of the identified patient population.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Our program enhances the theoretical understanding of integrated care models for chronic disease management. This program introduces a novel, practical approach to IV iron therapy delivery. The success of this program provides a strong case for the development and implementation of similar rapid-access anemia and IV iron services within healthcare systems.

Published: December 2024

Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a percepção de mulheres fisiculturistas sobre os efeitos dessa prática em suas vidas. Com base no aporte teórico-metodológico da História Oral, foram entrevistadas seis atletas que disputam competições em nível nacional ou internacional e uma dirigente com experiência na modalidade. Essas entrevistas foram cotejadas com outras fontes, tais como reportagens, documentos institucionais e produções acadêmicas. Dessa análise, emergiram dois temas: a potencialização dos seus corpos e a produção de suas subjetividades. A partir das suas narrativas, foi possível identificar que as atletas desestabilizam representações normativas de feminilidade, o que acabou por gerar a incidência de estratégias de controle sobre seus corpos. Para as entrevistadas, a autoestima e o empoderamento sobrepõem-se às adversidades que enfrentam para estar nesse esporte.
SCUBIDO: a Bayesian modelling approach to reconstruct palaeoclimate from multivariate lake sediment data

Published: December 2024

Abstract. Quantification of proxy records obtained from geological archives is key for extending the observational record to estimate the rate, strength, and impact of past climate changes, but also to validate climate model simulations, improving future climate predictions. SCUBIDO (Simulating Climate Using Bayesian Inference with proxy Data Observations), is a new statistical model for reconstructing palaeoclimate variability and its uncertainty using Bayesian inference on multivariate non-biological proxy data. We have developed the model for annually laminated (varved) lake sediments as they provide a high-temporal resolution to reconstructions with precise chronologies. This model uses non-destructive X-Ray Fluorescence core scanning (XRF-CS) data (chemical elemental composition of the sediments) because it can provide multivariate proxy information at a near continuous, sub-mm resolution, and when applied to annually laminated (varved) lake sediments or sediments with high accumulation rates, the reconstructions can be of an annual resolution. SCUBIDO uses a calibration period of instrumental climate data and overlapping XRF-CS data to learn about the direct relationship between each geochemical element (reflecting different depositional processes) and climate, but also the covariant response between the elements and climate. The understanding of these relationships is then applied down core to transform the qualitative proxy data into a posterior distribution of palaeoclimate with quantified uncertainties. In this paper, we describe the mathematical details of this Bayesian approach and show detailed walk-through examples that reconstruct Holocene annual mean temperature in central England and southern Finland. The mathematical details and code have been synthesised into the R package SCUBIDO to encourage others to use this modelling approach. Whilst the model has been designed and tested on varved sediments, XRF-CS data from other types of sediment records which record a climate signal could also benefit from this approach.
