Diabetics suffer from serious micro- and macrovascular complications of the disease with negative effects on blood flow and lower extremity sensation. Drug therapy alone might be insufficient to prevent or treat these health problems, and patients may need complementary therapy. Exercise therapy is an essential part of the treatment plan for diabetes mellitus and can complement drug treatment. Buerger-Allen exercises have recently become an evidence-based form of exercise to improve peripheral blood flow in diabetics. This short report briefly mentions the clinical benefits of Buerger-Allen exercises.

Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a very frequent entity that presents as an acute complication of diabetes mellitus, in which there is a state of hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis and ketosis. Acute complications of diabetes represent a high percentage of admissions to the emergency department of second level hospitals in Mexico. Methods: This is a retrospective, observational, comparative, cohort and descriptive study with documented analysis technique. We obtained information from a diary of records of the intensive care unit of our hospital and included all patients older than 14 years with a diagnosis of diabetic ketoacidosis. Patients younger than 14 years were excluded as well as hyperosmolar states. Results: Of the 1725 patients admitted to the ICU only 134 had diabetic ketoacidosis; 91% of which were of metabolic origin; 3 patients had acute pancreatitis, and complications were equal to 0.7%, being acute renal injury, urosepsis, preeclampsia and pneumonia. The most frequent age group was between 20 and 30 years old, while mortality was 10%. The incidence of diabetic ketoacidosis was more frequent in the male sex in contrast with the study of Li et al who report a predominance in the female sex. In the age group we agree with Ramphul et al. who determine an average age of 18 to 44 years in the U.S. population. Therefore, we take into account that our casuistry in Mexico is partially similar and that the tendency of diabetic ketoacidosis has been greater in the male population, as well as an increased mortality. Conclusions: In this study involving patients with diabetic ketoacidosis, the incidence and mortality tend to be increasing in our hospital and is that related to economic and sociocultural factors given the fact that our country and hospital of origin is in the means of development.

Introduction: Pleural empyema is a common disease and involves an increasing number of patients. Here, we describe a case of pleural empyema and bacteremia secondary to hemorrhage of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the oral and maxillofacial regions. Case Summary: A 23-year-old female diagnosed with maxillofacial AVM previously presented to our hospital with fever and dyspnea for 8 days. Chest computed tomography (CT) images showed that she had pleural empyema. Bacterial detection showed the growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Actinomyces odontolyticus, and Parvimonas micra. Antibiotic therapy combined with pleural space drainage were not effective until the hemorrhage of the AVM stopped. Conclusion: AVM rupture and bleeding may lead to persistent or refractory infection, and hemostasis is vital in preventing infection secondary to AVM.
