Since this diagnosis is usually considered in the differential diagnosis of teenagers and adults, our case raises awareness of this possible diagnosis in younger pediatric patients suspected of having deep vein thromboses.","PeriodicalId":23032,"journal":{"name":"The West Virginia medical journal","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81795084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Known clinically as the penile variant of Mondor's disease (PVMD), this rare pathology can elicit fear and embarrassment in patients, making it difficult for them to seek medical care. PVMD is also frustrating to clinicians, as its etiology can be varied, typical laboratory abnormalities are often absent, its presentation can be imitated by other diagnoses, and a consensus on treatment has not yet been reached. As depicted in this case report, this challenging diagnosis requires the collaboration of primary care physicians and urologists to optimize patient care.","PeriodicalId":23032,"journal":{"name":"The West Virginia medical journal","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75535144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Behaviors may be directly related to lack of interest in food, sensory/textural preferences, or fears of the aversive consequences of eating. The following is a case report of a 68-year-old woman who presented more than 30 times to a family medicine clinic within a 3.5 year time span for chronic nausea, abdominal pain, and weight loss. An extensive medical evaluation was unremarkable. Due to severely low body mass index and non-adherence with nutritional recommendations, the patient was referred to a specialty outpatient clinic that cared for individuals with disordered eating and was diagnosed with ARFID. In order to raise awareness about RFID, the diagnostic criteria and screening/assessment information are provided. Special emphasis is placed on screening and early detection by primary care clinicians to ensure individuals with RFID receive appropriate treatment in a timely manner.","PeriodicalId":23032,"journal":{"name":"The West Virginia medical journal","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76299001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this work is to define these services in WV and to discuss how the 2019 coronavirus pandemic (COVID) precautions affected the need to use tele- health from the speech and language pathologist (SLP) perspective. METHODS An online survey was administered to WV SLPs exploring their feeding and swallowing expertise, service coordination, patient service utilization, and approaches, particularly post- COVID. Our approach yielded responses from 124 SLPs from 37 of the 55 WV counties. RESULTS The majority of the sample provided a variety of services across large regions of WV. SLP experiences were varied. Half of survey respondents cited a shortage of experienced clinicians as a primary reason for feeding and swallowing service denial. The majority of SLPs had incorporated telehealth into their approach since COVID; however, a subsample reported restrictions in access to technology, policies, and training. Many respondents were not sure of security risks and requested training in security and methods for active participation. CONCLUSIONS Our findings reveal the need for increased systematic and educational support for SLPs providing feeding services via telehealth. Provider access, training, and use of telehealth approaches are pivotal for reaching people with disabilities and are crucial for removing the isolation for this population.","PeriodicalId":23032,"journal":{"name":"The West Virginia medical journal","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82378073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report the case of a 52-year-old man from rural West Virginia (WV) who presented with a five-year history of chronic abdominal pain and recurrent pancreatitis. His physical examination, laboratory, and radiologic studies revealed an acute pancreatitis flare, and his elevated serum glucose level indicated new-onset diabetes, leading to a diagnosis of type 3c diabetes.

Differences in care along gender lines have been described at a university affiliated hospital in West Virginia (WV) in the past three decades. The purpose of this study is to determine if differences along gender lines in the care of patients with chest pain persists. METHODS From July-December of 2015, a retrospective chart review was performed at Cabell Huntington Hospital in WV. Data from 375 patients with a diagnosis of chest pain presenting to the emergency department (ED) was compared to data from 25 years prior. Symptoms, risk factors, medical history, medications, physical examination, laboratory, and electrocardiogram results, treatment in the emergency department, and ultimate diagnoses were studied. RESULTS Women had less reproducible musculoskeletal pain and more use of over-the-counter medicines, hormones, and pulmonary medications before presenting to the ED. Treatment with nitroglycerin and gastrointestinal medications occurred more commonly in women. Regarding evaluations of symptoms, women received more electrocardiograms, cardiac monitoring, and laboratory testing in comparison to 25 years prior. Cardiology consultations and emergency catheterization as well as the use of aspirin, heparin, antibiotics, anxiolytics, and thrombolytic agents were more commonly used in the treatment of women in comparison to 25 years prior. CONCLUSIONS In comparison to 25 years prior, there were documented improvements in the management of women presenting to the ED and experiencing new-onset, non-traumatic chest pain.","PeriodicalId":23032,"journal":{"name":"The West Virginia medical journal","volume":"2017 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86774586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
