Article Abstract
Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) is an acute immune-mediated inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculopathy of the peripheral nerves often provoked by a preceding upper respiratory or gastrointestinal infection. Guillain-Barré Syndrome usually presents with symmetrical lower limb ascending weakness and decreased deep tendon reflexes. Here, we describe a case of an uncommon presentation of GBS presenting with upper extremity neuropathy and cranial nerve palsy in a 36-year-old Caucasian Army pilot. This case highlights various ways GBS may present and the importance of early identification and treatment to achieve full recovery and maintain military flight status.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia Sub-Committee, Association of Childhood Leukemia Study (JACLS), Japan.
Background: Relapsed or refractory cases of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have poor outcomes despite advancements in chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). While a second HSCT is often a salvage option, its outcomes vary widely, and prognostic factors remain unclear.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate outcomes and identify prognostic factors in pediatric patients with AML who underwent multiple HSCTs.

Background: In hyponatremic patients, concurrent dialysate flow during hemodialysis may be an ideal option to mitigate complications such as osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS).
Methods: Present randomized controlled trial enrolled dialysis-requiring chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI) patients with serum sodium levels < 125 mEq/L during January 2020 over 16 months. Hemodynamically unstable patients, as well as those with a history of seizures and neurological conditions, were excluded.

Department of Periodontics, Saveetha Dental College, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technology Sciences, SIMATS, Saveetha University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
Objectives: This study aims to assess periodontal and biochemical parameters and evaluate the salivary Protectin D1 levels in periodontitis patients with and without metabolic syndrome after non-surgical periodontal therapy.
Materials And Methods: Forty patients were categorized into two groups: 20 patients in Group P (systemically healthy patients with stage II/III grade B periodontitis) and 20 patients in Group P+MS (patients with stage II/III grade B periodontitis and metabolic syndrome). Parameters including age, gender, height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, socio-economic status, oral hygiene index (OHI), modified gingival index (MGI), probing pocket depth, clinical attachment levels, fasting blood glucose, HDL-c, total triglycerides, and blood pressure were recorded.
