In five out of seven cases, the presence of a crinkling profile of the free wall of the right ventricle was observed; at six months follow up, remission in four out of the five cases and a significant reduction in the remaining case, of the previously described findings, was observed.Conclusions: Crinkling appearance in the profile of the free wall of the right ventricle, detectable with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, might represent a morphological feature present in the acute setting of COVID-19 related myocarditis; several underlying physiopathological mechanisms are conceivable. Further studies are needed to confirm this correlation, define the underlying mechanisms and the prognostic implication related to it.

These lesions are usually difficult to differentiate from other vesiculo bullous and ulcerative lesions which would have a similar presentation and the absence of skin lesions can sometimes lead to misdiagnosis. Drug induced EM has an acute onset and is a self-limiting inflammatory hypersensitivity reaction that causes blistering and ulcerations of the skin and mucous membrane. The lesions heal following the discontinuation of the causative medications.

Prospective and retrospective studies found non-motor symptoms within the GI, specifically constipation, precede cardinal signs and cognitive decline by almost 20 years. In 2002, Braak et al. were the first to propose that PD is a six-stage propagating neuropathological process originating from the GI tract (GIT). Aggregated α-synuclein (α-syn) protein from the GIT is pathognomonic for the development of PD. This article reviews the current literature from the past 10 years as well as original research found in PubMed on the combined effects of enteric glial cells and lectins on the development of Parkinson's Disease. Studies have found that these aggregated and phosphorylated proteins gain access to the brain via retrograde transport through fast and slow fibers of intestinal neurons. Plant lectins, commonly found within plant-based diets, have been found to induce Leaky Gut Syndrome and can activate enteric glial cells, causing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Oxidative stress on the enteric neurons, caused by a chronic neuro-inflammatory state, can cause a-syn aggregation and lead to Lewy Body formation, a hallmark finding in PD. Although the current literature provides a connection between the consumption of plant lectins and the pathophysiology of PD, further research is required to evaluate confounding variables such as food antigen mimicry and other harmful substances found in our diets.","PeriodicalId":72274,"journal":{"name":"Archive of clinical cases","volume":"9 4","pages":"177-183"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/cc/90/acc-09-04-177.PMC9769076.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10511189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report using botulinum toxin (BoNTA) to the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle (FDS) to reduce flexor tone during recovery. Case Description. Two Collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injections were given to a patient with a -90° (PIPJ) contracture and a -35° degree distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) contracture. At the first CCH injection, 20 μ total of the Botulinum toxin was placed into the FDS muscle. Manipulation occurred at one week. A second injection of CCH followed by manipulation one week later occurred at two months, but no additional BoNTA was given. The final follow-up measurements at 53 months showed a PIPJ of -30° and a DIPJ of 0°. Total active motion improved from 140° to 240°. Outcomes of any treatment for severe Dupuytren's PIPJ contractures of the little finger are unpredictable and are often considered for staged external expansion or even salvage procedures. BoNTA injections weaken flexor tone in tendon repairs and for treating hypertonic muscles after strokes. Conclusion. We hypothesized that BoNTA injection could enhance the outcomes of DC treatment by inhibiting volar flexion forces during the recovery phase. The following case illustrates that using a BoNTA injection may have helped treat a severe PIPJ contracture. BoNTA injections need further research and controlled clinical trials to discover their proper role in Dupuytren's contractures treated via CCH injections, fasciotomies, and fasciectomies.","PeriodicalId":72274,"journal":{"name":"Archive of clinical cases","volume":"9 4","pages":"133-135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/e5/5e/acc-09-04-133.PMC9769080.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10520982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
