Article Abstract
Lead poisoning is rare, but easily missed, with the highest burden of disease occurring in low-to-middle income countries. However, when diagnosed, appropriate treatment can prevent long-term morbidity. A case is presented, reinforcing the importance of thorough history-taking and international guidelines in successful treatment.

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Paradoxes in PCR-Positive, Histopathology-Negative CNS Aspergillosis in A Patient with HIV and Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Background: Invasive central nervous system (CNS) aspergillosis is rare among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients due to preserved neutrophil function, despite significant CD4+ T-cell depletion. Diagnosis typically requires histopathologic confirmation, but polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing has introduced new challenges due to its high sensitivity but limited specificity.
Case Presentation: We describe a newly diagnosed 43-year-old HIV-positive male with concurrent Hodgkin lymphoma who presented with progressive neurological decline and a ring-enhancing brain lesion.

Background: Each year, approximately 100 million cases of bee and wasp stings are re-ported globally, with the majority resulting in mild reactions. However, in rarer instances, these stings can lead to severe and potentially fatal outcomes, including ischemic or hemorrhagic cerebral events. This article aims to synthesize and analyze the current evidence on the association between bee and wasp stings and the occurrence of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes.

Isatin (1-indole-2,3-dione) is a privileged nitrogen-containing heterocyclic framework that has received considerable attention in anticancer drug discovery owing to its general biological behavior and structural diversity. This review focuses on isatin-heterocyclic hybrids as a valuable model in the development of new anti-cancer drugs that may reduce side effects and help overcome drug resistance, discussing their synthetic approaches and mechanism of action as apoptosis induction through kinase inhibition. With various chemical modifications, isatin had an excellent ability to build powerful isatin hybrids and conjugates targeting multiple oncogenic pathways.

Here, we report the case of a 74-year-old man who developed diarrhea, abdominal pain, and oral intake difficulty and was subsequently hospitalized after receiving atezolizumab for pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography and enterocolonoscopy revealed active inflammation in the small intestine but not in the colon, leading to the final diagnosis of irAE enteritis.

Background And Aim: Hospital effluents are a major source of environmental contaminants, harboring pathogenic bacteria, toxic trace metals, and high organic loads. This study aimed to evaluate the bacteriological and physicochemical profiles of wastewater discharged from three coastal hospitals in Oran, Algeria, and to assess the associated public and livestock health risks under the One Health approach.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2023 to February 2024, involving monthly sampling at three hospitals and one drainage collector.
