Determining longitudinal HbA1c trajectories in T2DM patients may identify those at high-risk of PAH, reported a recent study. Patients with moderate-stable, high-decrease, & high-persistent trajectories vs. those with low-stable trajectory had higher risks of overall PAH, diabetes PAH, acute & chronic PAH. Apt & timely initiation of targeted intensive therapy may improve prognosis of these patients.

A recent report published in the journal of Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice estimated the prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes in children and adolescents.

- Patients with megaloblastic anemia with high-grade fever had mean Hb: 8.15 g/dL, MCV:111 ± 7.8 fL, unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in 75%, mean LDH:814 ± 24 IU/L, and low B12 or folate levels in 87.5%
- Megaloblastic anemia should be considered as differential diagnosis of fever with negative workup
- Most patients responded to treatment (B12 or folic acid) in 1-5 days and lab parameters improved in 1 week

- 1/3 of dengue cases (33%) presented with PE and it was significantly higher in children (43%) and in patients with complicated infection (48%)
- Lung ultrasound more often detected PE compared to chest X-ray (38% vs. 28%)
- PE is a relatively common complication in dengue; bedside imaging tools like lung ultrasound may enhance detection and assess severity
