Strategies and Management for Psychiatric Drug Withdrawal: A Systematic Review of Case Reports and Series.

In recent years, an increasing number of case reports on psychiatric drug withdrawal have emerged, offering detailed clinical insights and valuable real-world evidence on the withdrawal process. The objective of this review was to evaluate the strategies and management for withdrawing psychiatric drugs, as detailed in case reports and series. A systematic review of case reports and series published between 2013 and 2023 was conducted to capture the latest trends in psychiatric drug withdrawal. Cases were identified following the PRISMA guidelines by searching electronic databases Medline and Scopus. Finally, 47 case reports and series were included. The primary reason for drug withdrawal was attributed to the emergence of adverse events, followed by medication dependence or abuse, and clinical decision-making or symptom resolution. Gradual reduction of doses was implemented through various management approaches as the primary strategy for drug withdrawal, and drug substitution emerged as the second most employed strategy. Also, patients were mostly undergoing polypharmacy. Favorable treatment outcomes were reported in the majority of cases, suggesting that psychiatric drug withdrawal is feasible - though quite challenging in some situations. However, the remarkably low number of unsuccessful cases may create a misleading impression of the significant difficulty associated with withdrawing psychiatric drugs.

Neurosyphilis-Induced Psychosis in Europe: A Systematic Review of Case Reports

The tertiary stage of syphilis appears to be the most diverse of the three recognized, with a number of cardiovascular, gummatous, neurological and psychiatric symptoms. This systematic review’s aim is to analyze cases of organic psychoses secondary to tertiary syphilis, inspect the diagnostic procedures and assess the effectiveness of treatment. Case studies from Pubmed and MEDLINE Ultimate were sought out with the Boolean expression ‘((neurosyphilis) OR (syphilis) OR (treponema pallidum)) AND (case report) AND ((psychosis) OR (psychotic))’ to later undergo screening for exclusion criteria (according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines). Each report was accepted independently by two authors. Case reports were later appraised using the JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Case Reports. Finally, 11 case reports were included in the study. The most frequently reported psychiatric symptoms were delusions (91%) and hallucinations (81%), disorientation (about 42%) and sleep disturbances and memory loss (36%). Several inconsistencies in diagnostic processes were found in some of the case reports, while treatment procedures were more in line with the guidelines. A disease as complex as neurosyphilis requires great awareness and cooperation between various medical specialties. Despite its mimicry and variability in presentation, the discussed case reports prove that it can be successfully dealt with.

Meningitis after COVID-19 vaccination, a systematic review of case reports and case series

IntroductionVaccination is considered as one of the most promising strategies to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it could be associated with rare but serious complications. In the present study, we aimed to review the clinical course and etiology of post COVID-19 vaccination meningitis.MethodsAfter a systematic search in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Sciences online databases as well as Google Scholar, documents were screened and qualified. Then data extraction was performed and the most frequent underlying agent of meningitis was found based on the reported cases.ResultsOverall, 35 cases of post COVID-19 vaccination meningitis from 33 articles were included in the review. Among them, 12 cases had proven viral diagnosis and 23 of them were reported to be vaccine-induced. The most frequent viral pathogen among the cases was VZV. The most prevalent symptom was headache, and the most common time of appearance symptoms was one week after vaccination.ConclusionOverall, our study suggested meningitis as a critical but not devastating complication of COVID-19 vaccination. Almost all patients responded well to common agents used to manage viral or vaccine-induced meningitis. It is recommended to monitor patients with a history of chickenpox after COVID-19 vaccination regarding the development of meningitis.

Exploring Rare Cases: Clinical Insights, Neoplasm Associations, and Therapeutic Approaches in Anti-KLHL11 Antibody-Associated Encephalitis: A Systematic Review of Case Reports

Exploring Rare Cases: Clinical Insights, Neoplasm Associations, and Therapeutic Approaches in Anti-KLHL11 Antibody-Associated Encephalitis: A Systematic Review of Case Reports

A systematic review of case reports on mortality, modes of infection, diagnostic tests, and treatments for Nipah virus infection.

First identified in Malaysia in 1998, the Nipah virus is a paramyxovirus related to the Hendra virus. The clinical manifestation can vary from a silent infection to a life-threatening encephalitis. The World Health Organization (WHO) has documented 25 outbreaks in South Asia, resulting in 429 cases and 307 deaths to date. Currently, there are no approved treatments for the deadly Nipah virus infection, which is a serious threat to public health worldwide. Consequently, a review was conducted to examine the geographic distribution of the Nipah virus, mortality, transmission pathways, and available methods for diagnosis and treatment. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar servers were used to conduct a systematic search in compliance with the PRISMA guidelines. The results were tabulated and analyzed. A total of 12 studies (7 case series and 5 case reports) were included in the final analysis, and 92 cases were analyzed. The most frequent symptoms were fever (80%), myalgia (47%), headache (47%), shortness of breath/acute respiratory distress syndrome (n = 44.1%), altered sensorium (44.1%), and vomiting (42.6%). The most commonly used diagnostic test was RT-PCR (45.5%). The most common route of transmission reported is direct human contact with the infected patients. Treatment modalities include interventional procedures, antiviral drugs, and symptomatic treatment. The most common complications were seizures (39.2%) and altered sensorium (35.7%). The mortality rate was 73.9%. It is crucial to emphasize the importance of early Nipah virus infection diagnosis and treatment to prevent life-threatening consequences.

Association between motor neuron disease and HIV infection: A systematic review of case reports.

Motor neuron disease (MND) is a well-known group of neurodegenerative diseases, with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) being the most common form. Since 1985, a possible association between MND/ALS and HIV infection has been described. We performed a systematic review of case reports and case series involving people living with HIV with MND/ALS through PubMed, Bireme, Embase, and Lilacs databases. The risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Tool for Case Reports. We analyzed 36 articles presenting 88 cases. The mean age was 41.6years. Antiretroviral therapy (ART) was used by 89.8% and riluzole by 16.9%. First signs and symptoms were similarly present on cervical/upper (25%) and lumbosacral/lower limbs (23.9%), mostly with fasciculations (69.8%) and hyperreflexia (58.8%). MND had a progressive course in 32.9% patients and a clinical improve in 54.6% following ART. The mean survival of the 32 patients who died was 12.3months and the mean survival of the living patients was 62months. Respiratory failure was the main cause of death (35.7%). MND/ALS may present differently in the people living with HIV as a rapidly progressive disease in younger people but with the potential to improve weakness and survival through antiretroviral therapy.

Pulsed-Field Ablation in Management of Ventricular Tachycardia: A Systematic Review of Case Reports and Clinical Outcomes.

Pulsed-field ablation (PFA) is a cutting-edge technique that employs non-thermal energy to cause cell death by inducing irreversible electroporation of cell membranes. This systematic review evaluates the PFA effectiveness as a potential alternative to radiofrequency and cryo-ablation for treating ventricular tachycardia. PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science were systematically searched using keywords related to ventricular tachycardia and pulsed-field ablation. Eligible Studies evaluating this therapeutic approach for ventricular tachycardia were included in the final analysis. We included six studies (five case reports and one case series) in our systematic review. Eight (88.8%) of procedures were successful with 100% long-term efficacy. No procedural complications or ventricular tachycardia (VT) recurrence were observed in the cases. The absence of complications, high effectiveness, and long-term success rate make PFAs a good VT treatment option. However, PFA safety and efficacy studies for VT treatment are scarce. Thus, larger investigations on this topic are urgently needed.

Unraveling the Spectrum of Ocular Toxicity with Oxaliplatin: Clinical Feature Analysis of Cases and Pharmacovigilance Assessment of the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System Database

Ocular adverse events (oAEs) are a class of adverse events associated with oxaliplatin that are realistically observed in real-world settings. Herein, we aim to describe the clinical characteristics of oAEs associated with oxaliplatin through a systematic review of case reports and to assess a potential safety signal. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were used to retrieve case reports. The global disproportionality study was performed leveraging the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database from January 2004 to September 2023. Bayesian information component (IC) and reporting odds ratio (ROR) were applied to identify and evaluate potential oAEs associated oxaliplatin. A total of 20 cases from the systematic case review (of 13 screened articles) were reported on oAEs associated with oxaliplatin, with ages between 26 and 76 years. Therein, 16 (84.2%) cases described loss of vision, and the remaining cases presented with bilateral blepharoptosis, papilledema, and optic disc swelling. Insights from the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database showed that oAEs accounted for 4.28% (n = 1194) of the overall oxaliplatin-related adverse event reports, of which 1140 (95.48%) had a serious outcome. The median (interquartile range) onset time of oAEs with oxaliplatin was day 1 (0-25; n = 649). Disproportionality analysis revealed that ocular injuries NEC (n = 28, ROR, 22.72; lower limit of the 95% 2-sided CI for IC, 3.12) was the most significant signals detected. Additionally, unexpected significant oAEs, including eyelid ptosis, eyelid edema, eye movement disorder, blepharospasm, periorbital edema, swelling of eyelid, ophthalmoplegia, retinal vein thrombosis, cataract nuclear, blindness cortical, cataract subcapsular, and lacrimation disorder, were also reported disproportionality. Our study systematically described the characteristics and outcomes of oxaliplatin-related ocular toxicity and also uncovered potential oAEs that were not disclosed in the package insert. Further prospective epidemiologic studies to validate these findings are warranted.

Cranial nerve palsies in leprosy: a systematic review of published case reports and case series.

In leprosy, peripheral nerve involvement is well-documented, cranial nerve impairment in leprosy is less frequently reported, often through isolated case reports. This review aims to elucidate the pattern and spectrum of cranial nerve involvement in leprosy patients, enhancing understanding about pathogenesis and management. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review of case reports and series documenting cranial nerve involvement in leprosy. Searches were performed across PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar up to February 2, 2024, without language restrictions. We identified 40 documents reporting on 49 patients, with a mean age of 41.3 years and a predominance of male patients (87.6%). Cranial nerve involvement included the trigeminal nerve (28.6%), facial nerve (38.8%), and instances of multiple cranial nerve palsies (10.2%). Magnetic resonance imaging findings indicated nerve T2/FLAIR hyperintensity/enhancements. Neuroimaging abnormalities extended up to brain stem. Approximately 30% of patients experienced lepra reactions, with 51% showing improvement following treatment. Following mutidrug therapy (MDT), neuroimaging abnormalities were vanished. Cranial nerve involvement in leprosy primarily affects the trigeminal and facial nerves, with multiple cranial nerves also being implicated. Exaggerated inflammation during lepra reaction involve nerve trunks and/or brainstem nuclei.

Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw: A Systematic Review of Case Reports and Case Series.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a rare condition, typically seen in patients receiving antiresorptive or antiangiogenic drugs. This study aims to synthesize reports and case series of MRONJ regarding sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatments applied. Following PRISMA guidelines, a search for case reports and case series was carried out in the PubMed-Medline database until March 2024. A total of 88 articles were included in this review, in a total of 151 cases. The key findings reveal that females were the most affected individuals (71% of the cases) with the average age at diagnosis being 66.27 years with a standard deviation of ±13.03. Stage 2 was the most observed stage, in 43% of cases, and zoledronic acid was the most commonly used drug (32% of cases). The oral route was the most common route of administration, in 26% of cases, with an average administration duration of 60.88 months (standard deviation ± 50.92). The mandible was the most commonly affected anatomical location (in 60% of cases). Amoxicillin + clavulanic acid (875 mg + 125 mg) and chlorhexidine (0.12%) were the most used antibiotics and mouthwash, with 16% and 26% of the cases, respectively. Surgical debridement was the most common surgical procedure, in 32% of cases, while the use of an L-PRF membrane was the most prevalent unconventional treatment, in 21% of cases. This study identified a statistically significant relationship between unconventional treatments and the cure of MRONJ (p < 0.001), indicating the need for further research to confirm these results.

FP7.17 - Appendiceal Foreign Bodies in Adults: A Systematic Review of Case Reports

Abstract Adults can accidentally swallow foreign bodies (FBs) with food. In rare occasions, these can lodge in the appendix lumen causing inflammation. This is known as foreign body appendicitis. We conducted this study to review different types and management of appendiceal FBs. A comprehensive search on PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar was performed to detect appropriate case reports for this review. Case reports eligible for this review included patients above 18 years of age with all types of FB ingestion causing appendicitis. A total of 64 case reports were deemed to be eligible for inclusion in this systematic review. The patient mean age was 44.3 ± 16.7 years (range, 18-77). Twenty-four foreign bodies were identified in the adult appendix. They were mainly lead shot pellet, fishbone, dental crown or filling, toothpick, and others. Forty-two percent of the included patients presented with classic appendicitis pain, while 17% were asymptomatic. Moreover, the appendix was perforated in 11 patients. Regarding modalities used for diagnosis, computed tomography (CT) scans confirmed the presence of FBs in 59% of cases while X-ray only managed to detect 30%. Almost all of the cases (91%) were treated surgically with appendicectomy and only six were managed conservatively. Overall, lead shot pellets were the most common foreign body found. Fishbone and toothpick accounted for most of the perforated appendix cases. This study concludes that prophylactic appendicectomy is recommended for the management of foreign bodies detected in the appendix, even if the patient is asymptomatic.

The coincidence of multiple sclerosis and primary vasculitis; from the bench of pathology to the bedside of treatment: a systematic review of case reports.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, disabling neurodegenerative disease, leads to reduced quality of life. The increasing prevalence of MS around the world and its comorbidities increase its burden. Primary vasculitis subtypes, one of autoimmune diseases with different prevalence in different ages and genders, should be considered one of the important differential diagnosis in patients with MS. This study aims to verify the relationship between MS and primary vasculitis by conducting a systematic review. We searched PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, from January 1974 to July 2023. We included original articles that reported characteristics of patients involved with any type of Primary Vasculitis with MS. From an initial 816 publications, 18 studies consisting of 18 individual patients from 14 countries with confirmed MS and one of different subtypes of primary vasculitis met the inclusion criteria. The female/male ratio was 0.38:1, the mean (SD) age was 40.44 (14.37) years with the range of 16 to 70 years old, and the relapsing/progressive ratio was 1.57:1. Most of them, 14 (77%) experienced MS before vasculitis, and mostly received Corticosteroids, interferon, cyclophosphamide, Glatiramer acetate as MS treatment. The concurrence of Takayasu Arteritis (2 cases), Polyarteritis Nodosa (2 cases), Churg-Strauss Syndrome (1 case), Wegener's Granulomatosis (2 cases), Microscopic Polyangiitis (1 case), Cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis (5 cases), Good pasture's disease (5 cases) were reported with MS. Our study suggested that different primary vasculitis can be an important comorbidity of MS and can mimic its symptoms and MRI. Any atypical syndrome for PwMS, whether clinical or radiological, must be evaluated in terms of other differential diagnoses including vasculitis.

A Systematic Review of Phenibut Withdrawals.

Phenibut is an anxiolytic agent that was originally used as a treatment for anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and insomnia. It is a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mimetic, which stimulates GABA receptors in the brain. This increases the inhibitory effects of GABA leading to a greater chance of a sedative response and risk for abuse. It is not currently registered in Western countries but is easily accessible online as a supplement. This is a systematic review of case reports of phenibut patients with withdrawal symptoms published in the PubMed database between January 2010 and October 2023. Following the inclusion criteria application, 15 articles were included. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the results. The average age of patients with phenibut withdrawals was 31.8 years (SD=12.66 years), and 13 cases (87%) were males. The average dosage was 13.6 g/day (SD=8 g), ranging from 1.5 to 28.5 g/day. Nine cases (60%) presented at an emergency department, and three cases (17%) were presented at a clinic setting facility. The most common history of patients who took phenibut was alcohol or drug abuse (73%). A history of anxiety and depression (60%) was also seen in the majority of patient presentations. Phenibut is never prescribed in the United States, and there are no official guidelines for phenibut use. Educating all physicians about the potentially harmful supplements available to patients and their biological mechanisms is essential. This review highlights the importance of collecting a thorough patient history, including supplements, to help prevent phenibut misuse and subsequent withdrawals.

Real-world safety profile of eculizumab: an analysis of FDA adverse event reporting system and systematic review of case reports

ABSTRACT Background Most of the safety data regarding eculizumab came from clinical trials, while its safety information in the real world is still limited. Research design and methods The data of eculizumab in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database (from the first quarter of 2007 to the first quarter of 2023) was collected and analyzed. The case reports of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) related to eculizumab in PubMed, Embase and Web of Science before May 2023 were systematically reviewed. Results A total of 464 ADRs of eculizumab were identified in the FAERS database. The top five ADRs with the highest proportional reporting ratio (PRR) are total complement activity decreased, extravascular hemolysis, hemoglobinuria, total complement activity increased and breakthrough hemolysis. Fifty-one cases of ADR related to eculizumab were identified from 44 publications. The number of reported cases of eculizumab associated Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection in case reports was observed to be comparable to the number of cases of Neisseria meningitidis infection. Conclusions Clinicians must pay close attention to the risk of infections in patients receiving eculizumab, including severe N. meningitidis infection and other potentially fatal infections such as N. gonorrhoeae infection. In addition, The possible emergence of new ADRs should be vigilant during clinical medication.

Management of traumatic fracture-dislocation of the shoulder in children: A systematic review of published case reports

Proximal humerus fracture with simultaneous shoulder dislocation in children is a rare occurrence, with few reported cases. This systematic review of case reports aimed to document the outcomes of different treatment methods. A comprehensive literature search from 1980 to 2024 included case reports on traumatic shoulder fracture-dislocation in children. Eighteen studies were included, with a mean follow-up of 1.5 years. The cases comprised 7 boys and 11 girls, aged between 11 months and 16 years (median 6 years). The cases were divided into two groups based on epiphyseal involvement. Group A had 11 cases (61%) with epiphyseal involvement, while Group B had 7 cases (38%) with metaphyseal fractures without epiphyseal involvement. Treatments included closed or open reduction, with or without internal fixation. All fractures healed in an average of 7 weeks, with full function restored in an average of 21.58 weeks. The review suggests that open reduction with K-wire fixation is optimal for Group A, whereas closed reduction with intramedullary fixation is more effective for Group B, offering satisfactory clinical and radiological results in a shorter time efficiently.

Solid organ transplant in recipients with ongoing SARS-CoV-2 infection: A systematic review of case reports and series

BackgroundWhether solid organ transplant (SOT) can be safely performed in recipients with ongoing SARS-CoV-2 infection is still a debated question. MethodsA systematic review of the literature on recipients with ongoing SARS-CoV-2 infection at the time of surgery and the associated outcomes. ResultsFrom 29 studies, we identified 54 recipients; their median age was 47.5 years, and over half (23/54, 54.85%) were affected by fewer than two comorbidities. Kidney was the most common transplanted organ (24/54, 44.4%). SOT was performed without knowing the ongoing infection in 11.1% (6/54) of patients. On average, 16.1 (SD 23.2) days elapsed between SARS-CoV-2 infection and SOT, with a mean Ct value at diagnosis and transplantation of 29 and 31.9, respectively. Most patients (25/39,64.1%) had received previous COVID-19 vaccinations. Twenty-four patients (45.3%) received an anti-SARS-CoV-2 therapy. Ten patients (18.5%) required oxygen support, while seven (13.7%) were admitted to the intensive care unit. There were two reported cases (3.7%) of all-cause death, while there were no cases of COVID-19-related death. ConclusionsDeliberate SOT of recipients with ongoing SARS-CoV-2 is performed worldwide in candidates of nonlung transplant who are fit, immunized against the virus, and displaying a nonsevere disease course. No COVID-19-related deaths were recorded.

Ocular adverse events associated with platins: a disproportionality analysis of pharmacovigilance data and extensive systematic review of case reports

ABSTRACT Background Anti-cancer drugs, particularly platinum-based chemotherapy drugs, have been showing ocular adverse events (OAEs) in patients undergoing chemotherapy, which is concerning due to the potential impact on patient’s quality of life and the ability to continue effective cancer treatment. Research design and methods A retrospective case/non-case study was conducted using spontaneous reports on OAEs by platins from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. A disproportionality analysis was performed by calculating the Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), and the Information Component (IC) to identify OAE signals for platinum-based chemotherapy drugs. In parallel, a review of case reports for OAEs from platins was conducted by a systematic literature search in PubMed and Google Scholar. Results Using disproportionality analysis, 69 signals were identified for platinum-based chemotherapy drugs and OAEs (carboplatin: 42, oxaliplatin: 16, cisplatin: 11). Choroidal infarction [PRR = 215.1; χ2 = 4527.1; lower bound (LB) ROR = 140.7; IC025 = 5.1] and orbital hemorrhage [PRR = 120.0; χ2 = 300.5; LB ROR = 35.1; IC025 = 1.3] were the strong signals identified for carboplatin. Optic disc hyperemia [PRR = 208.2; χ2 = 742.5; LB ROR = 74.1; IC025 = 2.2] and blindness cortical [PRR = 23.7; χ2 = 382.5; LB ROR = 14.8; IC025 = 3.1] were the signals identified for oxaliplatin and cisplatin, respectively. A total of 32 case reports of OAEs from platinum-based chemotherapy drugs were identified through a systematic search in PubMed and Google Scholar, strengthening the association. Conclusion The study revealed a potential risk of OAEs when using platinum-based chemotherapy drugs as an anticancer medication.

Patterns of Neuropsychiatric Manifestations of Ovarian Teratomas: A Systematic Review of Case Reports.

Ovarian teratomas are germ cell tumors composed of multiple cell types. Ovarian teratomas may express antigens found in the nervous system or neuroendocrine proteins. These neural antigens and neuroendocrine proteins may lead to an autoimmune response with associated encephalitis. There are a growing number of case reports of autoimmune encephalitis in patients with ovarian teratomas. However, the patterns of neuropsychiatric manifestations of ovarian teratomas associated with encephalitis have not been established. The aim of this article is to conduct a systematic review to determine the patterns of neuropsychiatric manifestations of ovarian teratoma-associated encephalitis, focusing on their frequency and clinical course. Thirty-three case reports were collected and analyzed for a systematic review. The studies were full-text, peer-reviewed journal publications from April 2014 to April 2024. Fifty-eight patients were included in our study. The age group of 22-35 years old was the most reported, with 25 (43.1%) patients. The most commonly reported symptoms were memory impairment in 29 (50%) patients, hallucinations in 25 (43.1%) patients, and aggressive behavior in 23 (39.7%) patients. Neuropsychiatric symptoms had a prodromal phase of flu-like symptoms in 31 (53.4%) patients. The neuropsychiatric symptoms preceded the diagnosis of ovarian teratoma in 57 (98.3%) patients. In 53 (91.4%) patients, patients did not respond to psychiatric medications. Autoimmune antibodies to neural antigens were found in 45 (77.6%) patients, with 25 (43.1%) patients having neural tissue present in the teratoma. Treatment of the underlying teratoma and encephalitis led to full recovery in 37 (63.8%) patients. However, long-term outcomes such as relapse and mortality were discussed in only 11 (19.0%) patients. Findings suggest that neuropsychiatric symptoms correlate with teratoma-associated encephalitis and often precede tumor detection. The treatment of the teratoma led to full recovery of the neuropsychiatric manifestations; however, the long-term outcomes of the patients need to be further studied. Future research is needed on the prognosis of patients with neuropsychiatric manifestations of ovarian teratoma.
