Pseudogout attack associated with chronic thyroiditis and Sjogren's syndrome. (1/143)

A 66-year-old woman, diagnosed with chronic thyroiditis at age 63, presented with anorexia and fatigue. Therapy for the chronic thyroiditis consisted of levothyroxine sodium (100 microg/day). Her symptoms were attributed to the insufficient supply of levothyroxine sodium. Following a dosage increase to 150 microg/day, she suffered from an acute attack of pseudogout. Clinical features were complicated by Sjogren's syndrome, which appeared after treatment onset. Pseudogout was effectively treated by colchicine after administration of diclofenac sodium failed to alleviate the symptoms. Pseudogout is a recognized complication of thyroid replacement therapy, but association with Sjogren's syndrome has not been previously reported.  (+info)

Chondrocalcinosis after parathyroidectomy. (2/143)

In this retrospective study of 57 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy, the overall incidence of chondrocalcinosis was 40%. Neither joint symptoms nor chondrocalcinosis regressed after the operation. In several patients the condition appeared to deteriorate both clinically and radiologically after the operation, while in a few both the chondrocalcinosis and the associated symptoms first appeared some time after the operation.  (+info)

Transduction mechanisms of porcine chondrocyte inorganic pyrophosphate elaboration. (3/143)

OBJECTIVE: To investigate cellular signaling mechanisms that influence chondrocyte production of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi), which promotes calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystal deposition. METHODS: Articular chondrocyte and cartilage cultures were stimulated with protein kinase C (PKC) activator and adenyl cyclase activator. Generation of extracellular PPi was measured. RESULTS: Adenyl cyclase activation resulted in diminished pyrophosphate generation. PKC activation stimulated pyrophosphate elaboration. CONCLUSION: Two signaling pathways, cAMP and PKC, modulate generation of extracellular pyrophosphate by cartilage and chondrocytes. They are novel targets for potentially diminishing extracellular pyrophosphate elaboration that leads to CPPD crystal deposition.  (+info)

Elevated parathyroid hormone 44-68 and osteoarticular changes in patients with genetic hemochromatosis. (4/143)

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the osteoarticular changes associated with genetic hemochromatosis could be explained by metabolic parathyroid hormone (PTH) disorders. METHODS: The study involved 210 patients with liver iron overload syndromes. Osteoarticular changes were numerically scored as the number of damaged joints. PTH 1-84 and 44-68 were assayed. RESULTS: An increase in serum PTH 44-68 levels was found in one-third of untreated patients who had no calcium or PTH 1-84 abnormalities. Serum PTH 44-68 levels correlated positively with serum ferritin levels. In multivariate analyses, the number of affected joints correlated positively with age, serum PTH 44-68 levels, and serum ferritin levels. CONCLUSION: Liver iron overload syndromes, especially genetic hemochromatosis, are associated with elevated circulating levels of PTH fragments containing the 44-68 region, which appears to play a role in osteoarticular changes. This increase seems to be a consequence of iron overload.  (+info)

Phosphocitrate blocks nitric oxide-induced calcification of cartilage and chondrocyte-derived apoptotic bodies. (5/143)

OBJECTIVE: To examine whether phosphocitrate (PC) will block nitric oxide-induced calcification of cartilage or chondrocyte-derived apoptotic bodies. DESIGN: Articular cartilage vesicles (ACV) or apoptotic bodies (AB) were isolated from untreated or 1mM sodium nitroprusside (SNP) treated porcine cartilage slices. Mineralization of ACV, AB, control untreated and SNP-treated cartilage were done in the presence or absence of PC (1mM)+/-ATP (1mM). RESULTS: PC [1mM] blocked both the ATP-dependent and -independent mineralization in ACV and AB, untreated and SNP treated cartilage. Moreover, PC had no effect on NTPPPH activity in either ACV or AB fraction in the presence or absence of ATP suggesting that PC did not block the mineralization through the inhibition of NTPPPH activity. CONCLUSIONS: PC inhibits nitric oxide-induced calcification of cartilage and cartilage-derived apoptotic bodies.  (+info)

Most calcium pyrophosphate crystals appear as non-birefringent. (6/143)

OBJECTIVE: To determine the proportion of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals that appear as non-birefringent when observed under the polarised light microscope. METHODS: Two observers examined independently 10 synovial fluid samples obtained during an episode of arthritis attributable to CPPD crystals. Ten synovial fluid samples from patients with acute gout were used as a reference. The examination was performed after placing a fluid sample in a Niebauer haemocytometric chamber; a crystal count was done first under ordinary light, then in the area corresponding to a 0.1 ml, under polarised light RESULTS: The percentages of birefringence appreciated for CPPD were 18% (confidence intervals (CI) 12, 24) for observer 1, and 17% (CI 10, 24) for observer 2 (difference NS). The percentages of birefringence for monosodium urate were 127% (CI 103, 151) for observer 1 and 107% (CI 100, 114) for observer 2 (difference NS). Percentages above 100% indicate that crystals missed under ordinary light became apparent under polarised light. CONCLUSION: Only about one fifth of all CPPD crystals identified by bright field microscopy show birefringence when the same synovial fluid sample is observed under polarised light. If a search for CPPD crystals is conducted under polarised light, the majority of the crystals will be missed. Ordinary light allows a better rate of CPPD crystal detection but observation under polarised light of crystals showing birefringence is required for definitive CPPD crystal identification.  (+info)

Exclusion of the gene for human cartilage intermediate layer protein in currently mapped calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition syndromes. (7/143)

OBJECTIVE: To map the gene for human cartilage intermediate layer protein (CILP) in order to assess its involvement in some familial forms of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) deposition disease. METHODS: A radiation hybrid panel was analyzed for chromosomal assignment of the CILP gene within a 1-cM limit of resolution. The location of the gene for CILP was confirmed to reside at the observed radiation hybrid locus by fluorescence in situ hybridization. RESULTS: The human CILP gene resides at chromosome 15q21. CONCLUSION: This map location definitively excludes mutations in the CILP gene as the cause of certain familial forms of CPPD deposition disease that have been genetically mapped to chromosomes 8q and 5p.  (+info)

Seasonal variation in the onset of acute microcrystalline arthritis. (8/143)

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether acute attacks of uric acid and calcium pyrophosphate microcrystalline arthritis show a seasonal variation and, if so, to verify whether the distribution of single episodes shows a rhythmic circannual pattern. METHOD: All suspected cases of microcrystalline acute arthritis observed at the General Hospital of Ferrara during an 8 yr period (January 1990-December 1997) were considered. Diagnosis was made on the basis of history, physical examination and analysis of synovial fluid by means of polarized light microscopy. Month and day of each event were categorized both into four 3-month periods (by seasons) and 12 monthly intervals. Two different statistical methods have been utilized: chi(2) test for goodness of fit and partial Fourier series. RESULTS: During the period considered, 210 episodes of acute gout were observed [196 in males (93.3%) and 14 in females (6.7%)] in 179 different subjects, and 179 episodes of acute pseudogout [58 in males (32.4%) and 121 in females (67.6%)] in 165 different subjects. Gout attacks showed a higher frequency peak in spring [76 cases (36. 2%), P<0.001]. Analysis of distribution of events by gender confirmed the clear spring pattern in males (36.2%), whereas the paucity of cases in females did not allow any valid statistical analysis. Pseudogout attacks showed a higher frequency peak in autumn [52 cases (29.1%)], without reaching a statistically significant level either for the total sample or for subgroups divided by gender. Analysis of the seasonal distribution of gout or pseudogout events was significantly different (chi(2) 15.7, P=0.001). Chronobiological evaluation by means of Fourier analysis showed a circannual pattern for gout attacks, both for the total sample (P=0.006) and the male subgroup (P=0.003), characterized by a peak in April and a trough in October. Again, as for pseudogout events, no seasonal variation was found, either for the total sample or subgroups by gender. CONCLUSIONS: The present study gives further confirmation that acute gout attacks exhibit a circannual distribution in their occurrence, being more frequent in April, whereas pseudogout attacks do not. Moreover, the seasonal distribution of gout and pseudogout acute events is significantly different.  (+info)

Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease - WikipediaCalcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease - Wikipedia
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals are associated with a range of clinical syndromes, which have been given various names, based upon which clinical symptoms or radiographic findings are most prominent.[11] A task force of the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) made recommendations on preferred terminology.[5] Accordingly, calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) is an umbrella term for the various clinical subsets, whose naming reflects an emphasis on particular features. For example, pseudogout refers to the acute symptoms of joint inflammation or synovitis: red, tender, and swollen joints that may resemble gouty arthritis (a similar condition in which monosodium urate crystals are deposited within the joints). Chondrocalcinosis,[2][3] on the other hand, refers to the radiographic evidence of calcification in hyaline and/or fibrocartilage. Osteoarthritis (OA) with CPPD reflects a situation where osteoarthritis features are the most apparent. Pyrophosphate arthropathy refers to ...

In all cases, in the first group, in which both US and radiographs were positive for the presence of calcifications, a large number of either intra- or extracellular CPPD crystals were found. In one case where MSU crystals were found, no specific US signs were found. The patient presented moderate articular swelling and important functional limitation due to pain. The US picture showed effusion and mild synovitis of the wrist joint.. Pattern II was the most common (found in at least one site in all patients). The third pattern was found in one patient with a large effusion in the subacromial bursae, where several mobile hyperechoic deposits were seen. A large number of CPPD crystals was found in the synovial fluid analysis, so we believe that the third pattern is seen when crystal aggregates are formed.. To our knowledge, only a few studies on the use of US in CPPD disease have been carried out, mostly in the knee joint. In these studies, average sensitivity and specificity in detecting ...

Pseudogout - The RheumatologistPseudogout - The Rheumatologist
Pseudogout is a type of arthritis that, as the name implies, can cause symptoms similar to gout, but which are a reaction to a different type of crystal deposit. This type of arthritis may be one of the most misunderstood forms, and is often mistaken for gout and other conditions, including RA. Proper diagnosis is important because untreated pseudogout may lead to a severe form of joint degeneration and ongoing inflammation, resulting in chronic disability.. Pseudogout develops when deposits of calcium pyrophosphate crystals accumulate in a joint. Initially, crystals deposit in the cartilage and can cause damage. They also can cause a reaction with inflammation that leads to joint pain and swelling. This can cause more chronic arthritis that mimics osteoarthritis or RA. Knees are most often involved, but wrists, shoulders, ankles, elbows, and hands can be affected. Ultimately, a patient with pseudogout could be incapacitated for days or weeks.. ...

Chondrocalcinosis (CC) most commonly results from calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition (CPPD). The objective of this study is to examine the association between candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and radiographic CC. SNPs in ankylosis human (ANKH), high ferritin (HFE), tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP), ecto-neucleotide pyrophosphatase 1 (ENPP1), and transferrin (TE) genes were genotyped in participants of the Genetics of Osteoarthritis and Lifestyle (GOAL) and Nottingham Osteoarthritis Case-Control studies. Adjusted genotype odds ratio (aORGENOTYPE), the OR for association between one additional minor allele and CC, was calculated and adjusted for age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and osteoarthritis (OA) by using binary logistic regression. Statistical significance was set at P ≤0.003 after Bonferroni correction for multiple tests.

All clinicians know about the complexity in diagnosing rheumatoid arthritis (RA), especially early in the disease. Because RA lacks pathognomonic features - that is, there are no clinical, biological, or radiological characteristics specific to RA diagnosis - doubt about the diagnosis may persist for some patients1,2. Examples are patients with nude polyarthritis [i.e., without positivity for serum rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies, typical erosion, or all 3], or even elderly people with erosive RF-positive polyarthritis associated with psoriasis or calcium crystal deposition disease features seen on joint radiography. When RA is neither obvious nor completely excluded, the clinician strikes a balance between possible or probable RA, depending on the level of confidence. In this context, in clinical research, RA classification criteria may be of some help because they ensure, at the group level, the diagnosis of RA with minimal error. However, in clinical practice, ...

Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition DiseaseCalcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Disease
Calcium deposition is often seen at the triangular fibrocartilage of the wrist. Subchondral sclerosis, joint space narrowing, subchondral cyst formations which may be quite large, and intraarticular bodies from subchondral osseous collapse and fragmentation are all findings which can be seen in patients with CPPD disease. These radiographic abnormalities are most common at the radiocarpal articulation and at the 2nd and 3rd metacarpophalangeal joints. Additionally, there may a shift in the normal alignment of the scaphoid and lunate and narrowing at the midcarpal compartment. Differential Diagnosis:. CPPD disease causes destruction of cartilage which can lead to radiographic findings similar to osteoarthritis. Sites of involvement are useful for differentiating the two since the radiocarpal compartment of the wrist is not a common location for osteoarthritis. Lack of an erosive process at the MCP joint differentiates CPPD crystal deposition disease from rheumatoid arthritis. Greater propensity ...

Milwaukee shoulder syndrome - WikipediaMilwaukee shoulder syndrome - Wikipedia
Milwaukee shoulder syndrome (apatite-associated destructive arthritis) is a rheumatological condition similar to calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease (CPPD). It is associated with periarticular or intraarticular deposition of hydroxyapatite crystals. Crystal deposition in the joint causes the release of collagenases, serine proteases, elastases, and interleukin-1. This precipitates acute and rapid decline in joint function and degradation of joint anatomy. Subsequently disruption of the rotator cuff ensues. Along with symptomatology, the disease typically presents with positive radiologic findings, often showing marked erosion of the humeral head, cartilage, capsule, and bursae. Though rare, it is most often seen in females beginning in their 50s or 60s. Diagnosis is made with arthrocentesis and Alizarin Red staining along with clinical symptoms. Signs and symptoms may include the following: Limited active range of motion, usually unrestricted passive range of movement (early) ...

Osteoarthritis is a common feature, most often affecting the knees, shoulders, hips, and hands. Single or multiple joints may be affected. Hypertrophy of cartilage initially produces radiographic widening of the joint space. The newly synthesized cartilage is abnormally susceptible to fissuring, ulceration, and destruction. Ligamental laxity of joints further contributes to the development of osteoarthritis. Cartilage degrades, the joint space narrows, and subchondral sclerosis and osteophytes develop. Joint examination reveals crepitus and laxity. Joint fluid is noninflammatory. Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals are found in the cartilage in some cases of acromegaly arthropathy and, when shed into the joint, can elicit attacks of pseudogout. Chondrocalcinosis may be observed on radiographs. Back pain is extremely common, perhaps as a result of spine hypermobility. Spine radiographs show normal or widened intervertebral disk spaces, hypertrophic anterior osteophytes, and ligamental ...

Mg is a divalent cation mostly located intracellularly. It plays an important role in enzymatic processes. In healthy individuals homeostasis of Mg is regulated effectively, as sufficient mechanisms in the gastrointestinal tract and the kidney exist. However, if these mechanisms are affected in underlying disease, Mg depletion can cause a wide range of symptoms such as neuromuscular manifestations (muscular cramps, vertigo, tetany), cardiac and vascular manifestations (arrhythmias, hypertension), metabolic sequels and psychiatric manifestations (depression, fatigue) [11, 12].. As seen in this case, severe Mg depletion resulted in CPPD deposition with clinical manifestations of chronic inflammatory arthritis [13-16] and was responsible for muscular weakness, fatigue and the depressive episode.. Chondrocalcinosis, is defined as the deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate in hyaline or fibrous cartilage [14]. In radiography delicate linear calcification of the cartilage can be seen.

Iron was readily demonstrated in chondrocytes in 3 of 4 hemochromatosis articular cartilages studied. Either apatite, calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals, or both were found in all cartilages including those of 3 patients who had no radiographic or light microscopic evidence of calcification. These crystals, which may be secondary to degenerative changes or may play a role in cartilage degeneration, were not seen in any consistent morphologic relationship with the iron deposits. In fact, apatite was found in one cartilage in which no iron was identified in the sections studied. If iron, as demonstrated in the chondrocytes, is contributing to the calcium crystal deposition, it would most likely do so indirectly, for example by altering chondrocyte enzymes or connective tissue components.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the ability of baseline hand radiographs to predict the diagnosis 2 years later in a cohort of patients with early arthritis. METHODS: A total of 258 patients with arthritis onset within the previous year were evaluated. At baseline, all patients underwent a standardized evaluation including laboratory tests and radiographs. Hand radiographs were read by a blinded observer who used a standardized procedure for detecting features of crystal deposition diseases and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). After 30 +/- 11.3 months, the final diagnosis was established by a panel of rheumatologists. All radiographs were evaluated. RESULTS: Significant associations were found between radiographic features and a clinical diagnosis of RA, calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) arthritis, and hydroxyapatite arthritis. No radiographic abnormalities suggesting psoriatic arthritis or gout were seen. The sensitivities of hand radiographs for diagnosing CPPD or hydroxyapatite arthritis ranged from ...

Rheumatoid Arthritis is an auto-immune disease in which our immune system mistakenly attacks healthy joint tissue. It causes swelling, pain and eventually joint deformities. The inflammation can spread to the surrounding tissues and damage cartilage and bones. About 21 million people are affected by this disease globally each year.. Gout & Calcium Pyrophosphate Deposition Disease (CPPD) are caused by excess uric acid and calcium salt respectively, forming crystals in joints and causing inflammation, redness and swelling. Causes are unclear, but the risk increases with age and the disease is often misdiagnosed as arthritis. ...

Inflammatory microcrystals induce murine macrophage survival and DNA synthesis | Arthritis Research & Therapy | Full TextInflammatory microcrystals induce murine macrophage survival and DNA synthesis | Arthritis Research & Therapy | Full Text
The interaction of particulates with resident macrophages is a consistent feature in certain forms of crystal-induced inflammation, for example, in synovial tissues, lung, and the peritoneum. The mitogenic activity of basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals on synovial fibroblasts has been considered relevant to the synovial hyperplasia observed in crystal-induced arthritis. The aim of the study was to determine whether microcrystals such as these could enhance macrophage survival and induce DNA synthesis, thus indicating that they may contribute to the tissue hyperplasia. Murine bone-marrow-derived macrophages were treated in vitro with microcrystals, the cell numbers were monitored over time, and DNA synthesis was measured as the incorporation of [methyl-3H]thymidine (TdR). We report here that BCP, monosodium urate, talc, and, to a lesser extent, CPPD crystals promote macrophage survival and DNA synthesis; the latter response is particularly striking

Background. There are few data on anakinra use after failure of conventional medications for crystal-induced peripheral arthritis and/or crowned dens syndrome among complex hospitalized patients. Methods. We retrospectively analyzed the outcome of six patients affected with subacute crystal-induced arthritis who had received anakinra in second or third line therapy, including three patients with crowned dens syndrome and three others with gouty arthritis. Patients comorbidities, reasons for anakinra use and associated drugs, and outcomes were recorded. Results. All patients presented with elevated inflammatory syndrome, systemic symptoms with poly/oligoarthritis. Except for absolute contraindications, all patients were previously treated with full or decreased dose of NSAID, colchicine, and/or glucocorticoids, with unsatisfactory response. All three gouty patients exhibited complete responses in all acute involvements under anakinra within 3 to 5 days, including one of them who needed the

We analysed the histological findings in 1146 osteoarthritic femoral heads which would have been considered suitable for bone-bank donation to determine whether pathological lesions, other than osteoarthritis, were present. We found that 91 femoral heads (8%) showed evidence of disease. The most common conditions noted were chondrocalcinosis (63 cases), avascular necrosis (13), osteomas (6) and malignant tumours (one case of low-grade chondrosarcoma and two of well-differentiated lymphocytic lymphoma). There were two with metabolic bone disease (Pagets disease and hyperparathyroid bone disease) and four with inflammatory (rheumatoid-like) arthritis. Our findings indicate that occult pathological conditions are common and it is recommended that histological examination of this regularly used source of bone allograft should be included as part of the screening protocol for bone-bank collection.

What Do Purine Pyrimidine Ratios Indicate - PseudogoutWhat Do Purine Pyrimidine Ratios Indicate - Pseudogout
The deposit of uric crystals is one of the complications that you can have when suffering from gout. These tophi get formed in the joints of your hands and feet. This gout complication usually causes deformities, damage the tissue that surrounds the area of the gout. As a result you might suffer from destruction of your joint, constant pain and more worse, compression of your nerves. This is just one of the many gout effects. It takes about ten years for a gout patient to develop a chronic gout stage. At this stage, the gout has already cause serious damage to your joints. Of course, we are talking about the joints that have been affected by the gout. Furthermore, at this stage, some damage to your kidneys may have also been cause by the gout. More than half of the gout patients that have reached this stage also suffer from tophi, which are crystals of uric acid. Studies show that a number of three gout patient out of four suffer from tophi by the time they have reached the twentieth year of ...

They belief that in case every one of the four humors were absolutely suppose for being balanced healthy to create good wellness and also in case it had become unbalanced after that that delivered disease for the body system. The 4 Humours have been nothing yet the blood, phlegm, the yellow bile and the african american bile. He thought that main motive of Gout was the excessive of one of these four humors.

There are two main types of gout, primary and secondary. Most (90%) of gout sufferers fall into the primary category. This is a pattern with a cause that is generally unknown (idiopathic), although there are some genetic patterns that can lead one to tend toward elevated uric acid. Secondary gout is identified when uric acid is elevated in response to some other disorder (such as kidney disease). Some medicines (such as aspirin and diuretics) can lead to the onset of gout attacks because they decrease the excretion of uric acid from the body ...

Osteochondroprogenitor cellOsteochondroprogenitor cell
It is thought that through a combination of biochemical and biophysical stimuli, the uncommitted stem cells of the embryo will undergo differentiation into certain cell lineages. However the exact mechanism and signalling pathways are still unclear. Studies have shown that embryonic stem cells are more mechanosensitive than their differentiated counterparts. During embryonic development mesenchymal cells will form cellular structures known as 'condensations.' These cellular units will then develop into skeletal and other tissues, such as cartilage, tendon, ligament and muscle tissue. Osteoprogenitor cell condensations can aggregate, dissipate or condense depending on the signals present, however these still remain largely unknown. Depending on the different effects, the cellular condensations may differentiate into osteogenic or chondrocytic condensations. The positioning of the osteoprogenitor cell condensations determines the cell lineage before the signalling molecules can. This is due to ...

Psoriatic arthritisPsoriatic arthritis
Pain, swelling, or stiffness in one or more joints is commonly present in psoriatic arthritis.[4] Psoriatic arthritis is inflammatory, and affected joints are generally red or warm to the touch.[4] Asymmetrical oligoarthritis, defined as inflammation affecting one to four joints during the first six months of disease, is present in 70% of cases. However, in 15% of cases, the arthritis is symmetrical. The joints of the hand that is involved in psoriasis are the proximal interphalangeal (PIP), the distal interphalangeal (DIP), the metacarpophalangeal (MCP), and the wrist. Involvement of the distal interphalangeal joints (DIP) is a characteristic feature and is present in 15% of cases. In addition to affecting the joints of the hands and wrists, psoriatic arthritis may affect the fingers, nails, and skin. Sausage-like swelling in the fingers or toes, known as dactylitis, may occur.[4] Psoriasis can also cause changes to the nails, such as pitting or separation from the nail bed,[4] onycholysis, ...

The symptoms of POTS can be caused by several distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.[20] These mechanisms are poorly understood,[21] and can overlap, with many people showing features of multiple POTS types.[20] Many people with POTS exhibit low blood volume (hypovolemia), which can decrease the rate of blood flow to the heart.[20] To compensate for this, the heart increases its cardiac output by beating faster,[43] leading to the symptoms of presyncope and reflex tachycardia.[20] In the 30% to 60% of cases classified as hyperadrenergic POTS, norepinephrine levels are elevated on standing,[1] often due to hypovolemia or partial autonomic neuropathy.[20] A smaller minority of people with POTS have (typically very high) standing norepinephrine levels that are elevated even in the absence of hypovolemia and autonomic neuropathy; this is classified as central hyperadrenergic POTS.[20][44] The high norepinephrine levels contribute to symptoms of tachycardia.[20] Another subtype, neuropathic POTS, is ...

Encouraging the use of proper ergonomics not only includes matching the physical ability of the worker with the correct job, but it deals with designing equipment that is correct for the task.[23] Limiting heavy lifting, training, and reporting early signs of injury are examples that can prevent MSD.[24] Employers can provide support for employees in order to prevent MSD in the workplace by involving the employees in planning, assessing, and developing standards of procedures that will support proper ergonomics and prevent injury.[24] One focus of ergonomic principles is maintaining neutral postures, which are postures in which muscles are at their normal length and able to generate the most force, while reducing stress and possible injury to muscles, tendons, nerves, and bones- therefore, in the workplace or in everyday life, it is ideal for muscles and joints to maintain neutral positions.[25] Additionally, to prevent hand, wrist, and finger injuries, understanding when to use pinch grips ...

Hypokalaemia may present as muscle cramps and Cardiac arrhythmias. This is a condition commonly encountered by endocrinologists and general physicians alike. Herein, we report the case of a 43-year-old gentleman admitted with hypokalaemia, who following subsequent investigations was found to have Gitelmans syndrome (GS). This rare, inherited, autosomal recessive renal tubular disorder is associated with genetic mutations in the thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride co-transporter and magnesium channels in the distal convoluted tubule. Patients with GS typically presents at an older age, and a spectrum of clinical presentations exists, from being asymptomatic to predominant muscular symptoms. Clinical suspicion should be raised in those with hypokalaemic metabolic alkalosis associated with hypomagnesaemia. Treatment of GS consists of long-term potassium and magnesium salt replacement. In general, the long-term prognosis in terms of preserved renal function and life expectancy is excellent. Herein, ...
