The use of acute therapeutic and prophylactic anticoagulation is based on risk assessment. Albeit, the utility of anticoagulation in COVID-19 patients remains undetermined. Prevention of stroke recurrence is a clinical priority for providers treating large vessel stroke patients. More research is required to establish the effectiveness of anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy for stroke prevention in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.Aluminum phosphide is a common suicidal agent in an agrarian country like India. Toxicity is mostly due to the liberation of phosphine gas, which non-competitively inhibits cytochrome oxidase in the mitochondria causing cell hypoxia. Penicillin-Streptomycin inhibitor It can involve almost any organ in the body, but the most common is cardiovascular system. Various cardiovascular manifestations are hypotension, myocarditis, pericarditis, congestive heart failure, various ECG changes like myocardial infarction, conduction abnormalities, various arrhythmias, and very rarely unmasking of the Brugada pattern. Here we are presenting a case in which the patient developed unmasking of the Brugada pattern in ECG, and gradually he improved symptomatically and ECG wise with conservative treatment. As unmasking of the Brugada pattern in ECG can lead to life-threatening arrhythmias, one has to be cautious and keep this in mind while dealing with a case of aluminum phosphide poisoning.Diabetes is a chronic disease with a high prevalence in the United States. If not treated adequately, it can have serious complications. Furthermore, when depression affects concomitantly, adherence to treatment can be decreased. Therefore, a cascade of complications may develop, affecting the quality of life and increasing the risk of death. Depression is underdiagnosed in patients with diabetes, and even if diagnosed, the treatment for both diabetes and depression is not well established in primary care. This study aims to evaluate if treatment for depression with collaborative care can improve glycemic levels and depression treatment response in diabetic patients with depression. As well, we will investigate if treatment with antidepressants will aid in improving glycemic levels. For this systematic review, we followed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines and used PubMed, PubMed Central, and MEDLINE as database. Keywords "diabetes improvement with depressiossants SSRIs improve glycemic levels. This class of antidepressants is the most studied, and it would be interesting to perform trials comparing different classes of antidepressants with a bigger sample size and run for a more extended period. According to our review, collaborative care improves glycemia and depression treatment response. At the same time, it improves the adherence to treatment of both oral hypoglycemic drugs and antidepressants. SSRIs demonstrated to be more effective in glycemic control. The most studied and effective SSRIs are fluoxetine, escitalopram, and citalopram.Cardiac-related chest pain is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality and should be carefully assessed due to its burden on patient health. Its etiology can sometimes prove challenging to discover because of atypical presentations or rare causes of chest pain like myocardial bridging (MB). MB requires a high index of suspicion to be diagnosed. MB is a rare congenital anomaly that occurs due to the passage of a segment of a coronary artery inside the myocardium, causing chest pain due to compression during systole. MB usually has no clinical significance in most cases. However, when severe bridging occurs in the major coronary arteries, patients can experience myocardial ischemia, coronary thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and stress cardiomyopathy, leading to arrhythmias and sudden death. We present the case of a young woman who presented with atypical (rather than ischemic) chest pain due to MB.The classification of seizures and epilepsies by the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE), 2017 is the most recent classification model which aimed to simplify terminologies that patients and their caregivers can easily understand, identify seizures that have both focal and generalized onset and incorporate missing seizures. We have exhaustively reviewed the studies, discussed its scope, outlined its limitations and gave recommendations that could help in forming subsequent reviews. We have also described the terminologies that have been replaced, redefined or removed to have a clear view of the previous and the current classification models. We have recommended the use of multidimensional classification model which incorporated the clinical semiology, disease location, etiology and associated comorbidities. The benefits of this model is for prompt diagnosis which will results into early management and then better patient outcomes. It would also have a profound effects on the kind of treatment patients might receive especially in developing countries where there are scarcity of the diagnostic techniques. Overall, in this study we have reviewed the current study on seizures and epilepsy classification model by ILAE, 2017 to clarify the descriptions and coverage, outlined some limitations and suggested recommendations.With the ubiquity of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI), cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are fast becoming a prevalent phenomenon. They are tightly associated with age, neurodegeneration and diverse vascular etiologies. CMBs have a unique radiological signature. Their morphology, number and topology are quite informative. They also pose a therapeutic conundrum, as they are associated with the risk of cerebral hemorrhage. We present the case of an 86-year-old woman who has a vascular dementia, Binswanger's syndrome, and coronary artery disease, who presented with more than five CMBs. We present this case in order to highlight the dilemma of anti-platelet therapy in this group of patients and we demonstrate the cardinal radiologic features of CMBs. We then segue into the pathologic correlates of CMBs and associated risk factors. We finally analyze the risk of anti-platelet therapy in the presence of CMBs, and we unfold the latest data on CMB number and anti-platelet therapy.
