Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Immunoglobulin-G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a recently recognised fibro-inflammatory condition that can affect multiple organs. Despite growing interest in this condition, the natural history and management of IgG4-RD remain poorly understood.
AIM:
To describe the clinical characteristics, treatment and outcomes of IgG4-RD in a multi-ethnic UK cohort, and investigate its possible association with malignancy.
DESIGN:
Retrospective analysis of case-note and electronic data.
METHODS:
Cases were identified from sub-specialty cohorts and a systematic search of an NHS trust histopathology database using 'IgG4' or 'inflammatory pseudotumour' as search terms. Electronic records, imaging and histopathology reports were reviewed.
RESULTS:
66 identified cases of IgG4-RD showed a similar multi-ethnic spread to the local population of North West London. The median age was 59 years and 71% of patients were male. Presenting symptoms relating to mass effect of a lesion were present in 48% of cases and the mean number of organs involved was 2.4. 10 patients had reported malignancies with 6 of these being haematological. 83% of those treated with steroids had good initial response, however 50% had relapsing-remitting disease. Rituximab was administered in 11 cases and all achieved an initial serological response. Despite this, 7 patients subsequently relapsed after a mean duration of 11 months and 4 progressed despite treatment.
CONCLUSIONS:
We report a large UK-based cohort of IgG4-RD that shows no clear ethnic predisposition and a wide range of affected organs. We discuss the use of serum IgG4 concentrations as a disease marker in IgG4-RD, the association with malignant disease and outcomes according to differing treatment regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Central venous catheter (CVC) placement is a common procedure used for the treatment of critically ill patients. However, ischemic stroke is a complication after CVC placement.
AIM:
This study investigated the association between CVC placement and ischemic stroke risk in an Asian population.
DESIGN:
Population-based retrospective study.
METHODS:
We enrolled 37,623 patients who ever-received CVC placement over 2000-2010 and propensity score-matched individuals without CVC placement as the comparison cohort from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. We determined the cumulative incidence rates and adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for ischemic stroke.
RESULTS:
We finally identified and enrolled 34,164 propensity score-matched pairs of individuals. Compared with the comparison group, CVC placement increased the average annual ischemic stroke incidence (19.5 vs. 11.6 per 10,000 person-years; crude HR = 1.28, 95%, confidence interval [CI] = 1.21-1.35; adjusted subhazard ratio [aSHR] = 1.4, 95% CI = 1.33-1.47; p < 0.001). In addition, compared with those aged >35 years, stroke risk was significantly higher in < 35-year-old patients with CVC placement (aSHR = 14.3, 95% CI = 6.11-33.4; p < 0.001). After <1-year follow-up, the ischemic stroke incidence rate in the CVC placement group was approximately 3.25-fold higher than that in the comparison group (aHR = 3.25, 95% CI = 2.9-3.63; p < 0.0001).
CONCLUSION:
CVC placement increases ischemic stroke risk, particularly in those aged ≤35 years; this trend warrants further investigation.

Hydroxychloroquine was associated with reduced risk of new-onset diabetes mellitus in patients with Sjögren syndrome.
Chen TH1, Lai TY1, Wang YH2, Chiou JY3, Hung YM4,5,6, Wei JC7,8.
Author information
Abstract
OBJECTIVES:
To determine whether taking Hydroxychloroquine could prevent the development of new-onset diabetes mellitus among patients with Sjögren syndrome.
METHODS:
RESULTS:
Patients with Sjögren syndrome treated with Hydroxychloroquine had a significantly lower cumulative incidence of new-onset diabetes mellitus than those not treated with Hydroxychloroquine (adjusted hazard ratio: 0.51, 95% confidence interval: 0.28-0.96, p < 0.05). Hydroxychloroquine use for 3 years or more had favorable protective effects (adjusted hazard ratio: 0.22, confidence interval: 0.05-0.92).
CONCLUSIONS:
Hydroxychloroquine reduced the incidence of diabetes mellitus in a time and dose-dependent manner. Patients with SS who had taken Hydroxychloroquine for 3 years or more exhibited significant protective effects against developing new-onset diabetes mellitus.

Usability of donor corneas harvested from the deceased having septicaemia or malignancy.
Singh T1, Arya SK1, Handa U2, Chander J3.
Author information
Abstract
CONTEXT:
There is a wide gap between supply and demand in relation to healthy corneal grafts. Specific contraindications like infection and malignancy lead to non-usage of many grafts, despite the fact that deeming graft unhealthyness for these two contraindications is debatable.
AIMS:
The present study was conceptualised to assess if corneas donated from the deceased with septicaemia or malignancy can be deemed fit for implantation.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN:
Retrospective histopathological and microbiological analysis of cadaveric donor corneas.
METHODS AND MATERIAL:
76 donor corneas from 38 patients rejected for corneal transplantation in view of patient having septicaemia or malignany were analysed for pathological and microbiological workup, to look for dissemination of disease within corneal tissue.Pathology workup included gross and microscopic histopathological evaluation of tissue.Microbiology workup included Grams stain and KOH with calcoflour mount, culture in blood agar, chocolate agar, Sabourauds dextrose agar and Mc Conkeys broth.
RESULTS:
46 donor corneas of 23 septicaemia patients when evaluated showed presence of culture positive infection in 18 patients (78.2%).Histopathological examination done for 30 donor corneas from 15 cancer patients did not reveal presence of tumour cells in the specimen. Corneas of 2 of cancer patients having septicaemia revealed growth on cultures.
CONCLUSIONS:
Corneal tissues harvested from septicaemia donors showed significantly higher incidence of corneal contamination, confirming their unsuitability for usageHowever, there was no incidence of tumour transmission in corneal tissues of the patients with malignancies, suggesting that they can be considered for ophthalmic purpose.

A negative d-dimer identifies patients at low risk of death within 30 days: a prospective observational emergency department cohort study.
Lyngholm LE1, Nickel CH2, Kellett J1, Chang S3, Cooksley T4, Brabrand M1,5.
Author information
Abstract
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the ability of a normal d-dimer level (<0.5 mg/L) to identify emergency department patients at low risk of 30-day all-cause mortality.
DESIGN:
In this prospective observational study, d-dimer levels of adult medical patients were assessed at arrival to the ED. Data on 30-day survival status was extracted from the Danish Civil Registration System with complete follow-up.
SETTING:
The Hospital of South West Jutland.
PATIENTS:
All patients aged 18 years or older who required any blood sample on a clinical indication on arrival to the ED. Participants were required to give written informed consent before enrollment.
MAIN RESULTS:
The study population of 1,518 patients with median age 66 years of which 49.4% were female. Of the 791 (52.1%) patients with normal d-dimer levels, 3 (0.4%) died within 30 days; one death resulted from an unrelated traumatic accident. Of the 727 (47.9%) patients with abnormal d-dimer levels (≥0.50 mg/L), 32 (4.4%) died within 30 days. Patients with normal d-dimer levels had a significantly lower 30-day mortality compared to patients with abnormal d-dimer levels (odds ratio 0.08, 95% CI 0.02-0.28): of the 35 patients who died within 30 days, 19 (54.3%) had normal or near normal vital signs when first assessed.
CONCLUSION:
Normal d-dimer levels identified patients at low risk of 30-day mortality. Since most patients who died within 30 days presented with normal or near normal vital signs, d-dimer levels appear to provide additional prognostic information.

Abstract
Osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS) is a clinic-pathologic entity characterized by edema and demyelination of pons and extra pontine area. It frequently occurs as a result of rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia. It is characterized by altered sensorium and neurological deficits. Diagnosis of ODS is often difficult. MRI brain remains the gold standard for diagnosis. Here, we reported a case of osmotic demyelination syndrome resulting from rapid correction of hyponatremia. Through this case, we would like to illustrate the classical MRI brain findings of ODS.
