Article Abstract

The care of diabetic patients in peripheral medical centers in Burkina Faso faces many difficulties. This work, which is a new experience, aimed to set up an information system for the care of diabetic patients in the context of Burkina Faso. The system thus conceived consists of a web application (MedshakeEHR), used by the doctor and a mobile application (Glucosio) for the patient. The system has advantages such as remote appointment scheduling, appointment reminder, patient information sharing. The device also makes it possible to store data for the production of statistics and for scientific research. This experience has enabled us to meet certain challenges related in particular to the problem of HIS such as organizational constraints, the creation of a unique identifier, the modeling of the main business processes, etc.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality; patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at particularly high risk, highlighting the need for reliable biomarkers for early detection and risk stratification. We investigated whether combining the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) improves CHD detection in T2DM. In this retrospective cohort of 943 T2DM patients undergoing coronary angiography, associations of SHR and SIRI with CHD were evaluated using multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic splines; robustness was examined with subgroup and sensitivity analyses.

Difficult Single-Lead Spinal Cord Stimulator Trial for Failed Back Surgery Syndrome Salvages Treatment.

Pain Med Case Rep

December 2023

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care, and Pain Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.

Background: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a minimally invasive neuromodulation treatment modality primarily used for failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS), complex regional pain syndrome, and diabetic neuropathy. Specifically, when utilized for the treatment of FBSS, placement can be complicated by the excessive scarring, adhesions, and altered anatomy limiting the access to the epidural space and advancement of the leads.

Case Report: Our patient is a 58-year-old woman with a history of scoliosis and severe lumbar spinal stenosis who presented for trial of an SCS for FBSS.
