Introduction The elderly often suffer from insomnia, which can influence quality of life. Some suffer from insomnia because of ongoing medical issues; however, many suffer from primary insomnia. A few elderly adults seek treatment for insomnia by using hypnotic medications that may have more adverse effects than benefits. Several of these adverse events, like falls with subsequent injury or fracture, can be life changing. In this article, we review the various modes of insomnia treatment with a literature search on both pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments. Conclusion Cognitive behavioural therapy may be an effective long-term treatment for insomnia in the elderly and is a nonpharmacologic approach. Pharmacologic treatment may be effective and efficacious in the short term. Many of the commonly used hypnotics have not been studied over a longer term. Providers should review the potential risks and benefits before initiating any type of treatment plan for insomnia in older adults.
老年人常患失眠症,影响生活质量。有些人因为持续的医疗问题而失眠;然而,许多人患有原发性失眠。一些老年人通过使用催眠药物来治疗失眠,这些药物的副作用可能大于益处。其中一些不良事件,如跌倒并随后受伤或骨折,可能会改变生活。在本文中,我们回顾了失眠治疗的各种模式,并对药物和非药物治疗进行了文献检索。结论认知行为疗法是治疗老年失眠症的一种长期有效的非药物治疗方法。药物治疗在短期内可能是有效的。许多常用的催眠药都没有经过长期的研究。在开始任何治疗老年人失眠的计划之前,提供者应该审查潜在的风险和益处。

Introduction Angiokeratoma is a broad term that describes various conditions of asymptomatic hyperkeratotic vascular disorders with a histologic combination of hyperkeratosis and superficial dermal vascular ectasia. Here we are describing a case of recurrent angiokeratoma scroti. Case report A 34-year-old patient presented to the surgery department with multiple small papules over the scrotum with a previous history of two recurrences. They were slowly progressive, itchy and not associated with any bleeding. Examination revealed multiple soft compressible papules of 3–4 mm diameter with excoriation marks. Systemic examination and routine investigations were normal. Histologically, they were composed of numerous dilated thin walled congested capillaries mainly in the papillary dermis. Epidermis revealed variable degree of acanthosis and elongation of rete ridges and mild hyperkeratosis. Electrocauterisation of lesions was done and the follow-up period of three months was uneventful. Conclusion Although angiokeratoma scroti is not an uncommon entity, good treatment modality with minimal adverse effects in terms of complete resolution of diffuse lesions, recurrence, scarring, crusting, bleeding or cosmetic results is still not available. Introduction The term angiokeratoma is used to describe several distinct entities characterised by vascular nodules in the skin, with a histological picture of dermal vascular ectasia surmounted by hyperkeratosis of the epidermis. Angiokeratoma of the scrotum was originally described by Fordyce in 18961 reporting a case of 60-year-old man with multiple warty lesions confined to the scrotum only. Only a few cases of recurrent angiokeratoma had been reported since then. We describe here an adult male presenting with multiple papules over the scrotum with a previous history of two recurrences. Case report A 34-year-old male presented in the surgery department with moderate itching and multiple papules arranged diffusely over the scrotum. There was history of two recurrences five and three years back with the same complaints. Electrocauterisation of lesions was previously done two times, although no previous pathological reports were available. Each time, the follow-up period of four to six months had been uneventful. Even after complete post-operative healing, the patient continued to experience persistent discomfort, pruritis and psychological distress. Mere contact of the affected area with his underwear resulted in constant irritation. There was no history of trauma, episodic bleeding, similar lesions somewhere else on his body, inguinal hernia, genitourinary tumours, thrombophlebitis or varicocele. Physical examination revealed multiple, soft, bluish-red, compressible papules of 3–4 mm diameter with excoriation marks and focal thickening of skin, which might be due to previous surgical intervention. Systemic examination and routine investigations including urine examination and ultrasonography of scrotum were unrem
血管角化瘤是一个广义的术语,描述了各种无症状的角化过度血管疾病,组织学上伴有角化过度和表皮血管扩张。我们在此报告一例复发性阴囊血管角质瘤。病例报告一名34岁的患者在阴囊上出现多个小丘疹,既往有两次复发史。它们进展缓慢,发痒,没有出血。检查发现多个直径3-4毫米的柔软可压缩丘疹,并有擦伤痕迹。全身检查及常规检查均正常。组织学上,它们由大量扩张的薄壁充血毛细血管组成,主要分布在乳头状真皮中。表皮表现为不同程度的棘皮增生和网状脊伸长,轻度角化过度。对病变进行电灼治疗,随访3个月无意外。结论虽然阴囊血管角化瘤并不少见,但在完全消除弥漫性病变、复发、结痂、结痂、出血或美容效果方面,不良反应最小的治疗方法仍未出现。血管角化瘤这个术语被用来描述几种不同的实体,其特征是皮肤中的血管结节,具有表皮角化过度的真皮血管扩张的组织学图像。阴囊血管角化瘤最初是由Fordyce于1861年报道的一例60岁男性患者,其多发疣状病变仅局限于阴囊。从那时起,只有少数血管角质瘤复发的病例被报道。我们在这里描述一个成年男性表现为多个丘疹超过阴囊与以前的历史,两次复发。病例报告一名34岁男性,因阴囊上有中度瘙痒和多发弥漫性丘疹就诊于外科。五年前和三年前有过两次复发,都是同样的症状。电烧灼病变以前做了两次,虽然没有以前的病理报告可用。每一次,四到六个月的随访期间都平安无事。即使在完全术后愈合后,患者继续经历持续的不适,瘙痒和心理困扰。仅仅是他的内衣接触患处就会导致持续的刺激。他没有外伤史、偶发性出血、身体其他部位类似病变、腹股沟疝、泌尿生殖系统肿瘤、血栓性静脉炎或精索静脉曲张。体格检查发现多发性,软,蓝红色,可压缩丘疹,直径3-4 mm,伴有擦伤痕迹和局灶性皮肤增厚,可能是由于既往手术干预所致。全身检查和常规检查包括尿液检查和阴囊超声检查无明显差异。这一次,病变被电烧灼并切除活检组织,由多个灰白色软组织块组成,大小为1.3 × 1.0 cm。,被送到病理科做组织病理检查。整个组织都经过处理。提交的活检用血红素和伊红染色,发现表皮有轻度角化过度,不同程度的棘层和网状嵴伸长。乳头状真皮层显示大量扩张的薄壁充血毛细血管,以细链结缔组织分隔。组织学诊断为阴囊血管角化瘤。随访3个月,评估美容效果和寻找复发是平淡无奇的。血管角化瘤患者通常表现为小的鲜红色血管性丘疹,很少大于3-4毫米。阴囊血管角化瘤是真正的血管扩张。最初,病变可能是红色的、柔软的和可压缩的,但后来可能是坚硬的、角化的,有时是疣状的。这些血管病变可能是单一的、离散的,也可能排列成簇。最常见的症状是阴囊感到沉重、紧张,并伴有不同程度的出血和附加感染。症状进行性恶化,受累面积扩大,蜂窝织炎和感染反复发作,造成患者心理和情绪困扰;有时需要住院治疗。*通讯作者Email: drbrijeshthakur03@gmail.com印度斋浦尔NIIMS大学

Three lateral roots of median nerve: A case report 正中神经外侧三根1例
Pub Date : 2013-09-10 DOI: 10.13172/2052-0077-2-10-808

Introduction:The median nerve is formed by the union of a lateral and a medial root from the lateral and medial cords of brachial plexus. Reports on the existence of variations in the formation, branching and communication of median nerve are seen in the literature. However, there are very few reports on the involvement of two additional lateral roots in the formation of the median nerve. Such variations are of considerable importance for surgeons, physiotherapists and other clinicians. The details regarding the formation of the median nerve, developmental considerations and its importance have been discussed here. Case report:Apart from the normal roots, two additional lateral roots were given off from the lateral cord at the level of the second part of the axillary artery. These roots then coursed superficial to the axillary artery from the lateral to medial side to join the medial root, on the medial side of the axillary artery. The medial root then crossed on to the lateral side of the axillary artery to join the lateral root to form the median nerve. The rest of the course of the median nerve was found to be normal. Conclusion: Surgeons during surgeries of the axilla and physiotherapists during rehabilitation would require knowledge of such variations in the axilla, along with use for other clinicians too.
正中神经是由臂丛外侧束和内侧束的外侧根和内侧根结合而成。文献中有关于正中神经的形成、分支和通讯存在变异的报道。然而,在正中神经的形成过程中,很少有关于另外两个侧根受累的报道。这些变化对于外科医生、物理治疗师和其他临床医生来说是相当重要的。关于正中神经的形成,发育方面的考虑及其重要性的细节已在此讨论。病例报告:除正常根外,在腋窝动脉第二段的水平处,从侧索处发出另外两个侧根。这些根在腋窝动脉表面从外侧到内侧与腋窝动脉内侧的内侧根相连。内侧根然后穿过腋窝动脉外侧与外侧根连接形成正中神经。正中神经的其余部分是正常的。结论:腋窝手术的外科医生和康复的物理治疗师需要了解这些腋窝的变化,并为其他临床医生提供参考。

Tendinous flexor carpi radialis: a case report 桡侧腕屈肌腱1例
Pub Date : 2013-09-10 DOI: 10.13172/2052-0077-2-10-807

Introduction:Flexor carpi radialis is a muscle of the superficial group of muscles, in the anterior compartment of the forearm. Normally, it takes origin from the medial epicondyle of humerus and is inserted into the palmar aspect of the base of second metacarpal bone and gives off a slip to the third metacarpal in the same aspect. Case report:Here we present a case with most of FCR (except for few muscle fibres close to the origin) being replaced with tendinous portion. Discussion:The action of FCR is in combination with the other muscles acting at the wrist joint. Some of the actions include flexion, abduction and circumduction that involve FCR. Any change in the normal anatomy of the muscle would affect the normal actions at the wrist. The knowledge regarding the variations in this muscle would prove beneficial to physiotherapists and also clinicians. Other main clinical implications of FCR is in grafts. The clinical and applied aspects have been discussed in the report.
桡侧腕屈肌是前臂前腔内的浅表肌群中的一块肌肉。通常情况下,它起源于肱骨内侧上髁并插入第二掌骨基部的掌面并在同一方向上向第三掌骨延伸。病例报告:在这里,我们报告了一个病例,大部分FCR(除了少数靠近起源的肌纤维)被肌腱部分取代。讨论:FCR的作用是与手腕关节处的其他肌肉相结合的。一些动作包括屈曲,外展和绕行,涉及FCR。肌肉正常解剖结构的任何变化都会影响手腕的正常活动。关于这种肌肉变化的知识将被证明对物理治疗师和临床医生有益。FCR的其他主要临床意义是移植物。在报告中讨论了临床和应用方面的问题。

Abstract Introduction Intestinal lymphangiectasia is a protein-losing enteropathy caused by congenital malformation or secondary obstruction of intestinal lymphatic vessels, which usually causes excessive protein loss in the intestine and malabsorption syndrome. Patients may be asymptomatic or complain of oedema, diarrhoea, hypoalbuminaemia and other deficiencies. This article reports a case of chronic diarrhoea and an abdominal mass. Case report We present the case of a 70-year-old woman who came to our gastroenterological clinic for diarrhoea. Blood and stool tests were within the normal ranges, except for a mild eosinophilia and a high C-reactive protein. The ultrasound scan showed a cystic retropancreatic mass, and the following computed tomography scan confirmed the presence of the mass without sure continuity with the dorsal pancreas. The fine needle aspiration performed during an echoendoscopy, permitted the complete aspi ration of the fluid and the cytological analysis that showed numerous lymphocytes. The diagnosis of Intestinal lymphangiectasia was done, and Chronic diarrhoea and abdominal mass: a case of intestinal lymphangiectasia
肠淋巴管扩张症是一种由肠淋巴管先天畸形或继发性阻塞引起的蛋白质丢失性肠病,通常会导致肠道内蛋白质过多损失和吸收不良综合征。患者可能无症状或主诉水肿、腹泻、低白蛋白血症和其他缺陷。本文报告一例慢性腹泻和腹部肿块。病例报告我们提出的情况下,70岁的妇女谁来到我们的胃肠病学诊所腹泻。除了轻度嗜酸性粒细胞增多和高c反应蛋白外,血液和粪便检查均在正常范围内。超声扫描显示胰腺后囊性肿块,随后的计算机断层扫描证实肿块的存在,但与胰腺背侧的连续性不确定。在超声内镜检查过程中进行细针抽吸,使液体完全抽吸,细胞学分析显示大量淋巴细胞。诊断为肠淋巴管扩张,慢性腹泻及腹部肿块1例

Case reports in Foetal and Perinatal Pathology are rare. This scarcity reflects the fact that Foetal and Perinatal Pathology is a shortage specialty. In this Editorial, the reasons for the dearth of this kind of published literature will be discussed, the need for well-documented case reports in Foetal and Perinatal Pathology will be highlighted and their clinical and educational value will be explained. Editorial Developmental, Foetal, Perinatal and Placental Pathology are disciplines that form a distinct subspecialty of Paediatric Pathology. Abbreviated as ‘Perinatal Pathology’, they are mainly based on the autopsy of the foetus and infant and the examination of the placenta. In practice, a Perinatal Pathology unit covers embryonic, foetal, perinatal, neonatal, placental and infant pathology. The perinatal pathologist is called to perform the autopsy of the demised foetus or infant in cases of spontaneous abortion, intrauterine death or termination of pregnancy. In all instances, the autopsy report is meant to shed light not only to the cause of death but also to the aetiologic factors and pathogenetic mechanisms of the adverse pregnancy outcome, addressing all the clinical questions and clarifying the significance of pathological findings. In cases of pregnancy termination, the autopsy report of a trained and experienced perinatal pathologist often provides additional clinically significant information and
在胎儿和围产期病理病例报告是罕见的。这种稀缺反映了一个事实,即胎儿和围产期病理学是一个短缺的专业。在这篇社论中,将讨论缺乏这类已发表文献的原因,强调对胎儿和围产期病理学中记录良好的病例报告的需要,并解释其临床和教育价值。编辑发育,胎儿,围产期和胎盘病理学是学科,形成一个独特的亚专科儿科病理学。缩写为“围产期病理学”,它们主要基于对胎儿和婴儿的尸检以及胎盘的检查。在实践中,围产期病理学单元涵盖胚胎、胎儿、围产期、新生儿、胎盘和婴儿病理学。围产期病理学家被要求对自然流产、宫内死亡或终止妊娠的胎儿或婴儿进行尸检。在所有情况下,尸检报告不仅要阐明死亡原因,而且要阐明不良妊娠结果的病因学因素和发病机制,解决所有临床问题并阐明病理结果的意义。在终止妊娠的情况下,训练有素和经验丰富的围产期病理学家的尸检报告通常提供额外的临床重要信息和
