Groups of six participants are assigned to separate classrooms where we are greeted by two faculty members. This is the unfolding case, and the faculty members are to serve as facilitators to guide us. We are presented with a case study on finding biomarkers for a new cancer drug that reads like a story. There is a protagonist, several supporting characters, a clear plot line, and it's actually quite engaging. The dilemma presented feels like a puzzle that I really want to solve. The facilitators sit silently at the table, while we begin our discussion. Within minutes our entire group is speaking over each other, and each of us is offering a different opinion; each of us insistent that ours is the best way forward. After several minutes of this cacophony, I ask the facilitators if we are on the right track. They smile and suggest we begin by ensuring that everyone in the group understands the terminology in the case, and precisely what the question or dilemma is. Assuming we all understand the topic seems to be our first mistake. Once we reviewed the case and all understood the tasks at hand, the facilitators suggest we spend a few minutes familiarizing ourselves with each other's professional expertise. Amongst the other participants, there is a basic scientist, an epidemiologist and someone who works in marketing for pharmaceutical companies. Like me, these three participants have never seen a patient professionally. The final two participants are physician researchers involved in clinical trials. Having a better handle on the various skills we had around the table, we begin to brainstorm the different angles of the problem. As a lab scientist, my thoughts immediately swing to the in vitro and in vivo experiments that must be done to better understand the biologic question. However, I soon realize that there is much more at stake and that the lab component is merely one tiny slice of a much larger pie. The case unfolds over three separate sessions. While I'm able to contribute to the conversation at the outset, I find myself reserved and quiet when the group begins to discuss issues around intellectual property, funding, clinical trials, patient involvement, companion diagnostics, ethics, and regulation.

His comorbid diseases included hypertension, congestive heart failure, Pickwickian syndrome, venous insufficiency, and asthma. Preoperatively, he underwent pulmonary function testing (which revealed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), lower extremity duplex ultrasonography (negative), and a left heart catheterization (negative). After the initial laparoscopic port was placed, it was decided that completion of the laparoscopic procedure was not feasible due to the patient's body habitus, and his procedure was converted to an open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, using a retrocolic approach and an EEA-21 stapled gastrojejunostomy. The operation was uncomplicated; a leak test with air was negative, and a gastrostomy was placed. He had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on the fourth postoperative day. He presented 18 days following surgery with collapse and shortness of breath. He was suspected of having a pulmonary embolus and was admitted to the intensive care unit. Because angiography was technically not feasible due to his weight and spiral computed tomography (CT) would pose a significant risk of nephrotoxicity given an elevated creatinine, the patient was given empiric thrombolytic therapy in addition to anticoagulation, fluid hydration, and inotropic support of his heart.

Stent retrieval was attempted using various balloon and basket catheters; however, it proved challenging and was unsuccessful owing to the narrow papilla. Therefore, endoscopic papillary large balloon dilatation (EPLBD) was performed, wherein the papilla was dilated to a diameter of 12 mm (Figure 2). Grasping forceps were inserted into the bile duct, and the stent was successfully grasped and retrieved through the papilla (Figure 3).

INPUT: A 44-year-old Hindu male, a postgraduate, working as a teacher, residing in a suburban area, with anankastic traits and nil contributory family history, presented two years back (January 2019) with complaints of repeated, irrational, intrusive (ego-dystonic) thoughts and doubts about contamination; persistent, repeated washing; and low mood since 37 years of age. The reason for consultation was an increase in symptoms and dysfunction. On mental status examination, the patient had an anxious affect, obsessive doubts, compulsive acts, and grade 4 insight. Physical examination was within normal limits. The Yale Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (YBOCS) score was 26. The patient was initiated on psychotherapy (12 sessions of exposure and response prevention) and pharmacotherapy (fluoxetine titrated to 80 mg). The patient reported improvement but could not follow up further due to the COVID-19 pandemic first wave crisis and defaulted treatment for a few months. The patient also complained of insidious onset of heaviness of head and limb paraesthesia. Subsequent limb stiffness and walking difficulty added to the distress. During this visit, he also reported difficulty in performing day-to-day activities such as buttoning and unbuttoning for a few days. On physical examination, the patient had increased tone in upper and lower limbs, with no other long tract signs. CT scan brain revealed calcification in bilateral basal ganglia (Figure 1). Routine blood investigations (complete blood count, sugar profile, liver function test, kidney function test) were within normal limits. Serum iPTH, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, thyroid function, and alkaline phosphatase were within normal limits. On the Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale, the questionnaire score was 5, examination of Parkinsonism and akathisia score was 6, and scores on clinical global impression of Parkinsonism and severity of akathisia were 3 each. Citing recent-onset extrapyramidal symptoms and signs and abnormal neuroimaging, cognitive screening was done. Mini Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores were 29 and 28. Fluoxetine was restarted, citing prior response. Baclofen (30 mg) was initiated as per liaison with the neurology team. Written informed consent has been obtained from the patient. OUTPUT:

Nonetheless, 3 months after the theoretical onset of DBS using the final set of fixed parameters reported earlier, the patient no longer complained of OCD symptoms, and his Y-BOCS fell to a score of 3. Clinically, he seemed soothed and did not feel the urge anymore for washing rituals, neither reported experiencing an insidious sense of contamination risk. The patient was euthymic; his personal interactive relationship skills had greatly improved; and he no longer consumed alcohol. Attesting such dramatic improvements, the patient even planned to resume his professional activity. Consequently, follow-up appointments were gradually spaced out, and 9 months post-lead implantation (hence after 6 months of DBS treatment), the patient was asymptomatic and stable, still with a low Y-BOCS score of 3. Nonetheless, at this time, during a routine check, the psychiatrist in charge of the study unexpectedly found out that the IPG was no longer operative because the battery had depleted completely long before. Unfortunately, we could not determine how long the battery might have been depleted by interrogating the IPG unit.

As a physician engaged in clinical diagnostic reasoning, here is a case report from Pubmed, please analyze the input and accurately identify the diagnosis presented within it. INPUT: Before DBS onset, by the end of the period that followed lead implantation, the patient's Y-BOCS score remained severely affected (Y-BOCS score of 22). Nonetheless, 3 months after the theoretical onset of DBS using the final set of fixed parameters reported earlier, the patient no longer complained of OCD symptoms, and his Y-BOCS fell to a score of 3. Clinically, he seemed soothed and did not feel the urge anymore for washing rituals, neither reported experiencing an insidious sense of contamination risk. The patient was euthymic; his personal interactive relationship skills had greatly improved; and he no longer consumed alcohol. Attesting such dramatic improvements, the patient even planned to resume his professional activity. Consequently, follow-up appointments were gradually spaced out, and 9 months post-lead implantation (hence after 6 months of DBS treatment), the patient was asymptomatic and stable, still with a low Y-BOCS score of 3. Nonetheless, at this time, during a routine check, the psychiatrist in charge of the study unexpectedly found out that the IPG was no longer operative because the battery had depleted completely long before. Unfortunately, we could not determine how long the battery might have been depleted by interrogating the IPG unit. The study blind was lifted, and investigators learned that the patient turned out to have been randomized to the VS/VC bilateral stimulation condition and treated with the last set of the earlier-reported parameters. In the absence of any specific complaint, and given the outstanding patient's recovery with consistent low Y-BOCS scores, in agreement with the patient, we decided not to replace the IPG.

At the time of presentation, he took levodopa/carbidopa 125 mg and pramipexol 0.6 mg tid, with an adequate treatment response. Neurological examination in the off-state revealed a classic right-dominant rest and jaw tremor, right dominant severe bradykinesia, moderate axial and limb rigidity, a typical hypokinetic gait and mild balance impairment during the pull test (off state UPDRS motor-score: 47, Hoehn & Yahr stage: 2.5). His clinical presentation was consistent with idiopathic, tremor-dominant and dopa-responsive PD. We performed the 'pointing test' as follows: we instructed the patient to grasp a pencil that was located about 70 centimeter away, with his left (i.e. least affected) hand, as fast as possible immediately following a verbal command. Whenever the patient made such an abrupt, brisk ballistic movement, the tremor of his right hand stopped for about 1 second. However, during trials that were performed with a non-ballistic movement (slower movement velocities and/or delayed movement initiation) of the left arm, the right-sided hand tremor was not interrupted (see online video supplement).

On admission, his temperature was 39C, blood pressure 100/60 mmHg, and pulse rate 105/min. Laboratory studies showed a WBC count of 35,500/microL, CRP 30.0 mg/dL, and an ESR 120 mm/hr. A roentgenogram of the lower extremity demonstrated massive air shadow in the soft tissue (Fig. 1). Gas gangrene was suspected, accordingly, the patient was given a large dose of penicillin and an emergency operation was performed. No pus collection and no myonecrosis was found on operation, but a large amount of gas was drained and a pseudomembrane was found in the fascia of the thigh. Fasciotomy of the thigh and calf and a microbiologic examination were performed. The Gram-negative intestinal organism (Rahnella aquatilis) was obtained on culture. Three days after the operation, we detected the drainage of fecal materials from the inguinal area of the operation wound. 2). On biopsy, the lesion was confirmed to be a nonspecific ulceration. Accordingly, a low anterior resection of the fistular mass was performed (Fig. 3). Fecal materials were no longer drained, and the fasciotomy wound was covered with a split thickness skin graft. The patient was discharged three months after admission with a good general condition. OUTPUT:

Laboratory examinations revealed the following results: leukocyte count 3600/mm3, antinuclear antibody 1:640, speckled pattern, positive anti-nRNP & Ro antibody, LDH 208 U, CK 23 U. The patient was treated with hydroxychlorquine, prednisolone (10 to 20 mg/day, sometimes on 5 mg/day), piroxicam and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or calcium channel blocker. Thereafter, she was intermittently admitted to the hospital due to drug-induced hepatitis, severe dysplasia of the uterine cervix, fever with chills and painful lymphadenopathy. At the presentation, she visited the hospital due to back and left groin pain during walking down stairs about 15 days ago. She denied a significant trauma history. Pelvis X-ray previously checked was unremarkable except for an osteoporotic change (Figure 1A). Physical examination on admission showed positive a Patric test on the left hip joint. We suspected her to have the avascular necrosis of the left femoral head. However, MRI of the left femoral head did not confirm our suspicions but instead, revealed a synovitis with effusion. Simple pelvis radiograph was done. We recommended bed rest, tapering of prednisolone and management of steroid-induced osteoporosis. After 5 months, a follow-up pelvis X-ray revealed the healing of parasymphyseal fracture (Figure 1C). OUTPUT:

The medium was filtered through a sterilized syringe lightly packed with glass wool before the flow through was centrifuged at 5000 g for 40 min at 5 C. The supernatant was carefully discarded and the pellet resuspended in 10 mL cold sterile H2O. This step was repeated twice with centrifugation for 20 min, before the macroconidia were ready for transformation. The F. solani macroconidia were transformed with pSHUT4-eYFP using A. tumefaciens AGL1 as previously described. The transformation mixture containing A. tumefaciens and F. solani was spread onto induction medium plates containing a black filter paper (Frisenette, Denmark, 140.090). Positive controls included plates with and without filters plated with either plasmid carrying A. tumefaciens or macroconidia. After incubation at 22 C for 3 days, the filters were moved to V8 agar plates containing 150 microg/mL G418 (Gibco) and 300 microg/mL cefoxitin sodium (Sigma-Aldrich). After 7 days, the filters were moved to new V8 agar plates containing 150 microg/mL G418 where colonies started to emerge after 1-5 days. Single colonies were transferred to potato dextrose agar (PDA) plates containing 200 microg/mL G418. All incubation steps were carried out in darkness. OUTPUT:

He was presented with 3 years past medical history of bilateral ptosis and lipothymic discomfort. Clinical findings: general examination found short stature with a BMI within normal limits (17kg/m2). On the first examination, the visual acuity was 20/100 in the right eye and 20/80 in the left eye. The inspection found bilateral ptosis (Figure 1). Ocular motility examination revealed partial external ophthalmoplegia with mild limitations in gaze in all directions. The pupillary light reflex was present. Intraocular pressure was good in both eyes. Slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination found a calm anterior segment. After dilatation, funduscopy of both eyes showed bilateral atypical pigmentary retinopathy with macular dystrophy (Figure 2). The diagnosis of KSS was suspected. The patient was referred to the cardiology and neuropediatric department. Examination found normal cardiac auscultation and normal neurological assessment. Diagnostic assessment: fluorescein angiography found areas of hyper- and hypofluorescence called \"aspect of salt and pepper\" (Figure 3). The electrocardiogram revealed a 3rd degree atrioventricular block with an average ventricular rate at 37 b/min (Figure 4).

Lab results included an elevated troponin (2.380), aspartate aminotransferase (176), and alanine transaminase (132). WBC was 12.2 with neutrophils (88.8) and eosinophils (0.5%) (Table 1, 2). EKG showed no ischemic changes (Figure 2). Cardiology was consulted due to the elevated troponins (Table 3). Echocardiography demonstrated diffuse hypokinesis and an ejection fraction of 55% (Video 1). Cardiac catheterization revealed normal coronary arteries. At this time, the cause of her symptoms was suspected to be systemic infection due to the progression of her cellulitis as she met systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria, had a suspected source of infection, and signs of organ dysfunction. She was started on broad-spectrum antibiotics as well as intravenous fluids. On day four, the eosinophil count increased to 11.2%. This was accompanied by the evolution of the papular rash, becoming confluent and morbilliform over her abdomen and back (Figures 3, 4). Management included discontinuation of all culprit drugs and symptomatic management with intravenous fluids and supplemental oxygen as needed. Laboratory values and vital signs were continuously monitored. Her symptoms and rash improved, and the patient was discharged on day seven (Figure 5). The patient agreed to follow up with her primary care physician within three to six days. OUTPUT:

He complained of diarrhea, nausea, headache, facial flushing, and jaw pain that he attributed to taking selexipag. He underwent an echocardiogram followed by RHC on selexipag (1600 mcg twice daily), ambrisentan (10 mg daily), and tadalafil (40 mg daily). Due to poor tolerance of selexipag, worsening hemodynamics, elevated brain natriuretic peptide levels of 388 pg/dl, and presence of pericardial effusion on echocardiogram, he was offered parenteral prostacyclin therapy. However, patient declined, thus decision was made to transition to oral treprostinil from selexipag. In February 2018, he was admitted for this transition. He was afebrile, heart rate of 85 per minute, respiratory rate of 16 per minute, blood pressure of 135/70 mmHg, oxygen saturation was 95% on room air, and euvolemic on physical exam. Selexipag was slowly tapered, while oral treprostinil was increased to a final dose of 7.5 mg three times daily without any significant side effects except for slight headaches. He noticed improvement in nausea, headache, diarrhea, facial flushing, and jaw pain. The total duration of the transition was 10 days as outlined in Table 1. During the hospital course, echocardiogram and RHC were performed before and after completing this transition with improvement in hemodynamics (Table 1). He was completely off selexipag and taking oral treprostinil 7.5 mg three times daily at the time of discharge (11th day). OUTPUT:

Examination revealed a firm, mobile, and painful swelling in the epigastric area. There was tenderness in the right iliac fossa and enteric contents through a dehiscence of the laparotomy wound. Computed Tomography (CT) scan revealed low density, heterogeneous spongiform mass obstructing the colonic lumen (Figure 2). Emergent laparotomy showed multiple abscesses, and a tumor of the transverse colon. While performing colectomy we found a large abdominal swab (30/30 cm) that had migrated to the colon lumen (Figure 3). The operation ended by colostomy and ileostomy. When reviewing the previous operation report, we found out that there had been a textile count procedure. OUTPUT:
