Background: A patient’s motivation for consulting a physician is paramount to the first steps of achieving an early diagnosis of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Understanding what triggers this motivation can help in the design of strategies to increase the number of visits to a specialist physician following early symptoms of HAE. The aim of the present study was to identify the reasons that led patients to seek the opinion of an HAE expert physician.

In our series of unsung or forgotten medical heroes, we first published a manuscript on Alvin Blunt, Jr, M.D. who was the first African American MASH physician in the Korean War. Dr. Kenneth L. Wilson’s manuscript changed United States military history. Our second manuscript in our series, Medical Miracle in Indianola, Mississippi: The Untold Story of Dr. Clinton Battle and the Indianola Conjoined Siamese Twins, introduces the world to a 29-year-old physician who vaginally delivered the first set of conjoined twins to be successfully separated and both survived the operation. This great feat was done at Rev. John and Missouri Matthews’ home without anesthetics or ultrasound. Dr. Battle died dejected because he never received any credit for this magnificent accomplishment in medical history. In this manuscript, we present the compelling story of Dr. Colonel Vance Marchbanks, who monitored astronaut John Glen during his historic space flight. Dr. Marchbanks was a pioneer Flight Surgeon who developed an oxygen delivery system that enabled flight crews to fly at higher altitudes.

Background: A 60 years-old man presented with an 8-day history of acute onset painless left upper eyelid ptosis covering the pupil entirely. Ptosis can affect unilateral or bilateral. He had no other symptoms; importantly pupils were equal and reactive and eye movements were full. There was no palpable mass or swelling. He had a headache but had no other focal neurological signs or symptoms of fatigue. MRI of brain and Orbits showed no remarkable abnormality detected in brain & orbits.

Background: Injuries occurring while running barefoot and shod has been a topic of concern for a long time due to the increased interest in recreational running. This research focused on the ankle and foot complex injuries in shod and barefoot running groups. The objective was to fi nd the pattern of ankle and foot complex injuries and if any other aspects such as type of running or the frequency of training for marathons affect the occurrence of injuries.

Introduction: Pyoderma Gangrenosum (PG) manifests as recurrent deep ulceration of the skin and PG is often associated with a variety of systemic diseases, such as Infl ammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), infl ammatory arthropathies, hematologic malignancies and hepatitis. There has been neither laboratory fi nding nor histological feature diagnostic of PG, and diagnosis of PG is mainly made based on the exclusion criteria.
