Abstract: Background and Objective: Diagnosing community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) can&#xD;
be challenging. This study aimed to examine the clinical and paraclinical diagnostic characteristics, along with oxidative stress&#xD;
(OS) markers, in individuals suffering from both CAP and CHF.&#xD;
Methods: A total of 210 patients were enrolled and divided into two groups: group 1 (n = 105) – patients with CAP associated&#xD;
with CHF and group 2 (n = 105) – patients with CAP without CHF.&#xD;
Key Content and Findings: Worsening of dyspnoea was present in 98 (93.3%) patients in group 1, compared to group 2 – 73&#xD;
(69.5%) patients, P &lt; 0.0001. Bilateral extension of pneumonia was more frequent in group 1 compared to group 2: 63 (60.0%)&#xD;
patients versus 57 (54.3%) patients, respectively, P = 0.515. The presence of pleural effusion was more common in group&#xD;
1 compared to group 2: 41 (39.0%) patients versus 14 (13.3%) patients, P &lt; 0.0001. The total antioxidant activity (AAT), by&#xD;
CUPRAC method, had higher values in group 1 (6.70 ± 4.62) versus group 2 (4.99 ± 4.29), P = 0.006.&#xD;
Conclusions: Bilateral extension of pneumonia, presence of pleural effusion, worsening of preexisting dyspnoea and the&#xD;
elevation of total antioxidant activity values (CUPRAC method) are useful tools in the early diagnosis of CAP in patients with CHF.; Introducere: Diagnosticul pneumoniei comunitare (PC) pe fundalul insuficienței cardiace cronice (ICC) poate fi dificil. Scopul&#xD;
lucrării a fost de a analiza particularitățile clinice și paraclinice de diagnostic, precum și parametrii stresului oxidativ (SO), la&#xD;
pacienții cu PC și ICC.&#xD;
Metode: În studiu au fost incluși 210 de pacienți, divizați în 2 loturi: grupul 1 (n = 105) – pacienți cu PC asociată cu ICC și grupul&#xD;
2 (n = 105) – pacienți cu PC fără ICC.&#xD;
Rezultate: Agravarea dispneei fost prezentă la 98 (93.3%) pacienți din grupul 1, comparativ cu grupul 2, unde aceasta a fost&#xD;
prezentă la 73 (69.5%) pacienți, P &lt; 0,0001. Extinderea bilaterală a pneumoniei s-a întâlnit mai frecvent în grupul 1 comparativ&#xD;
cu grupul 2: 63 (60.0%) pacienți versus 57 (54.3%) pacienți, respectiv, P = 0,515. Prezența revărsatului pleural a fost mai frecvent&#xD;
întâlnită în lotul 1, comparativ cu lotul 2: 41 (39.0%) pacienți versus 14 (13.3%) pacienți, P &lt; 0,0001. Activitatea antioxidantă&#xD;
totală (AAT), prin metoda CUPRAC, a avut valori mai mari în grupul 1 (6,70 ± 4,62) versus grupul 2 (4,99 ± 4,29), P = 0,006.&#xD;
Concluzii: Extinderea bilaterală a pneumoniei, prezența revărsatului pleural, agravarea dispneei preexistente și elevarea&#xD;
valorilor activității totale prin metoda CUPRAC, sunt instrumente utile de diagnostic precoce a pneumoniei comunitare la pacienții&#xD;
cu insuficiență cardiacă cronică.</summary>

Abstract: Abstract&#xD;
This case report describes an unusual form of gout, called miliarial gout, in association with carpal tunnel syndrome in a 54-year-old woman. Miliarial gout was first described in 2007 and is a very rare presentation of chronic tophaceous gout. The latter condition can cause carpal tunnel syndrome, but this association has not previously been described in association with miliarial gout. In addition, the authors discuss the use of the parsimony principle in internal medicine whereby a single cause is first sought for different symptoms presenting at the same time.

Authors: Garabajiu, Maria; Mazur, Minodora; Sadovici-Bobeică, Victoria; Caun, Elena; Mazur-Nicorici, Lucia
Abstract: Rezumat&#xD;
Introducere. Lupus eritematos sistemic (LES) este o maladie autoimună polisindromică, afectarea hematologică fi ind&#xD;
caracteristică bolii. Sindromul Evans este o manifestare hematologică rară a LES, această asociere presupunînd pronostic&#xD;
rezervat. Această manifestare hematologică poate tergiversa stabilirea diagnosticului de lupus. Drept exemplu este cazul&#xD;
pacientei M., 31 ani, care la internare a prezentat acuze la fatigabilitate, fotosensibilitate, mialgii, cefalee periodică,&#xD;
depresie, dispnee ușoară și echimoze solitare pe gambe. Din anamneză am constatat că pacienta se consideră bolnavă de&#xD;
10 luni, cu acuze la dispnee, apariția peteșiilor și echimozelor, epistaxis, sîngerare menstruală abundentă. Peste 1,5 luni a&#xD;
fost stabilit diagnosticul de sindromul Evans și a inițiat tratament cu prednisolon. Persistența manifestărilor sindromului&#xD;
Evans, precum și apariția semnelor noi a necesitat consultația reumatologului. Rezultatele investigațiilor au permis stabilirea&#xD;
diagnosticul de lupus eritematos sistemic conform criteriilor SLICC 2012, prin prezența a 7 criterii clinice și 3 criterii&#xD;
imunologice (prezenţa ANA şi anti-ADNdc, scăderea C3, C4). Debutul sindromului Evans a necesitat tratament doar cu&#xD;
glucocorticosteroizi, însă, la confi rmarea LES, tratamentul a presupus necesitatea antimalaricelor de sinteză, conform ghidului&#xD;
treat to target [1]. Concluzie. Anemia hemolitică cu trombocitopenie autoimună – sindromul Evans, fi ind manfestare&#xD;
inițială a LES, poate conduce la întîrzierea diagnosticului, dar inducerea promptă a terapiei cu glucorticosteroizi, care sunt&#xD;
de bază în ambele patologii, permit scăderea oportună a activității maladiei cu îmbunatatirea stării generale a pacientului&#xD;
și, de asemenea, pronosticul bolii pe termen lung.&#xD;
&#xD;
Introduction. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a palindromic autoimmune disease and haematological implication&#xD;
is common for the disease. Evans syndrome is a rare hematologic manifestation of SLE and the combination of these&#xD;
pathologies presuppose varied prognosis. In cases of lupus onset with these symptoms the diagnosis of disease may be&#xD;
delayed. As an example we present a case of patient M., 31 years old, presented at admission complaints of fatigue, photosensitivity,&#xD;
myalgia, recurrent headache, depression, mild dyspnea and unique bruises on legs. From the history of disease,&#xD;
we detect that the patient is considered ill for 10 months, when appeared dyspnea, petechiae, ecchymosis, epistaxis and&#xD;
heavy menstrual discharges. In a 1,5 month was established the diagnosis of Evans syndrome and started treatment with&#xD;
prednisolone. The persistence of Evans syndrome as well as new symptom’s appearance required rheumatologist consultation.&#xD;
Examination results confi rm the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus conform SLICC 2012 classifi cation&#xD;
criteria by the presence of 7 clinical and the 3 immunological criteria (presence of ANA şi anti-dsDNA, C3, C4 lowering).&#xD;
The onset of Evans syndrome required treatment only with glucocorticosteroids, however, after the confi rmation of SLE&#xD;
treatment involved antimalarials, according to treat to tatget guideline [1].&#xD;
Conclusion. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia - Evans syndrome, as early presentation of SLE,&#xD;
may lead to delay in diagnosis, but prompt inducing glucorticosteroid therapy, which is basic in both pathologies, allow&#xD;
opportune lowering of disease activity with improving patient’s general condition, and also, it’s long-term prognosis.&#xD;
&#xD;
Введение. Системная красная волчанка (СКВ) является полисиндромным, аутоиммунным заболеванием и&#xD;
гематологические проявления являются характерными для болезни. Синдром Эванса является редким гематологическим проявлением СКВ и сочетание этих патологий подразумевает разноречивый прогноз. В случаях де-&#xD;
бюта волчанки такими гематологическими проявлениями, диагноз заболевания может задерживаться. В качестве&#xD;
примера представлен случай пациентки М., 31 год, которая поступила с жалобами на усталость, фоточувствительность, миалгию, реккурентную головную боль, депрессию, одышку; и единичными гематомами на ногах. Из&#xD;
истории болезни мы выявили, что пациентка считается больной в течение 10 месяцев, когда появились одышка,&#xD;
петехии, гематомы, носовые кровотечения и обильные менструальные кровотечения. Через полтора месяца был&#xD;
установлен диагноз синдрома Эванса и начато лечение преднизолоном. Персистентность синдрома Эванса, а&#xD;
также появление новых симптомов потребовали консультацию ревматолога. Результаты исследований позволили&#xD;
установить диагноз системной красной волчанки в соответствии с критериями SLICC 2012 по наличию 7 кли-&#xD;
нических и 3 иммунологических критериев (наличие ANA и анти-дцДНК, снижение С3, С4). Дебют синдрома&#xD;
Эванса требовал лечения только глюкокортикостероидами, однако, подтверждение СКВ лечение вовлекает необходимость противомалярийных средств, в соответствии с руководством treat to target [1]. Вывод. Аутоиммунная&#xD;
гемолитическая анемия и тромбоцитопения - синдром Эванса, как раннее проявление СКВ, могут привести к&#xD;
задержке в диагностике, но своевременное начало глюкортикостероидной терапии, которая является основой при&#xD;
обеих патологиях, позволяет своевременно снизить активность болезни с улучшением общего состояния пациента, а также, ее долгосрочный прогноз.

Abstract: Rezumat&#xD;
Introducere. Dermatomiozita (DM) este componența miopatiilor infl amatorii idiopatice (MII), consecințele cărora&#xD;
pot fi diverse, iar fi ecare pacient necesită abordare individuală. Prezentare de caz. Pacienta AO, 44 ani, diagnosticată cu&#xD;
dermatomiozită în 2007, în baza criteriilor Bohan și Peter, s-a prezentat cu multiple acuze din partea sistemului osteoarticular,&#xD;
fi ind în perioada de recuperare după artrodeza articulației talocrurale stângi. Concomitent acuză labilitate psihoemoțională&#xD;
datorată dependenței fi zice de persoanele apropiate. Prin examen clinic și paraclinic am stabilit un grad redus&#xD;
al activității bolii, confi rmat prin instrumentele aplicate: evaluarea globală de către medic (MDGA) și pacient (PGA) prin&#xD;
scala vizual analogică, care au indicat spraaprecierea de către pacientă. Testarea musculară manuală a forței musculare&#xD;
a indicat putere musculară scăzută cu un scor de 48 din 80 puncte. Evoluția policiclică a bolii a determinat o serie de&#xD;
modifi cări ireversibile cuantifi cate prin Indicele lezării în miozite așa ca sisteme muscular, scheletal, cutanat, pulmonar,&#xD;
cardiovascular, ocular. Un alt aspect important al determinării impactului bolii asupra bolnavei a fost calitatea vieții, prin&#xD;
care am identifi cat valori joase atât a componentului fi zic cât și mintal. Concluzie. Dermatomiozita pe termen lung are&#xD;
un impact major asupra abilității funcționale și calității vieții pacienților, inclusiv în condițiile când activitatea bolii este&#xD;
controlată. Cunoașterea spectrului de consecințe în timp a miopatiilor necesită o abordare multidisciplinară esențială în&#xD;
prevenirea acestora și îmbunătățirea calității vieții pacienților. &#xD;
&#xD;
Introduction. Dermatomyositis (DM) is a component of idiopathic infl ammatory myopathies, which outcomes can&#xD;
vary widely and each patient requires individual approach. Case presentation. The patient AO, 44 years old, with the&#xD;
diagnosis of dermatomyositis from 2007, established according to the Bohan and Peter criteria, came to medical consultation&#xD;
with multiple complaints of the musculoskeletal system, being in the stage of recovery from arthrodesis of the&#xD;
left ankle joint. Simultaneously, the patient accused psycho-emotional lability due to physical dependence of loved ones.&#xD;
Performing clinical and laboratory assessments we have established a reduced level of disease activity, confi rmed by the&#xD;
tools applied: patient and physician global assessments, evaluated by visual analog scale, which indicated patient’s overestimation.&#xD;
Manual muscle testing of muscle strength showed lower muscle power with a score of 48 out of 80 points.&#xD;
Polycyclic disease course caused an array of irreversible changes, quantifi ed by the myositis damage index, in such domains&#xD;
as muscle, skeletal, skin, lungs, cardiovascular, ocular. Another important aspect determining the impact of disease&#xD;
was the appreciation of the patient’s quality of life, which identifi ed low levels of both physical and mental components.&#xD;
Conclusion. Long-term dermatomyositis has a major impact on patient’s functional ability and quality of life, even when&#xD;
disease activity is controlled. The spectrum of the idiopathic infl ammatory miopathies outcomes requires a multidisciplinary&#xD;
approach for preventing them and improving patient’s quality of life.&#xD;
&#xD;
Введение. Дерматомиозит (ДМ) является компонентом идиопатических воспалительных миопатий,&#xD;
последствия которых могут варьировать в широких пределах, и каждый пациент требует индивидуального&#xD;
подхода. Клинический случай. Пациентка О., 44 лет, с диагнозом дерматомиозит, установленным в 2007 году,&#xD;
в соответствии с критериями Бохан и Питер, поступила с множественными жалобами со стороны опорно-&#xD;
двигательного аппарата, находясь в периоде восстановления после артродеза левого голеностопного сустава. В&#xD;
то же время жалуется на психоэмоциональную лабильность вследствие физической зависимости от близких. При&#xD;
проведении клинического и лабораторного исследования мы установили низкую степень активности заболевания,&#xD;
подтвержденую примененными инструментами: глобальная оценка состояния врачом и пациентом по визуальной аналоговой шкале, которые обозначили повышенную оценку со стороны пациента. Оценка мышечной силы с&#xD;
помощью „ручного” мышечного теста показала сниженную мышечную силу - 48 баллов из 80 возможных. По-&#xD;
лициклическое развитие болезни определило ряд необратимых повреждений таких систем как мышечной, кост-&#xD;
ной, кожной, легочной, сердечно-сосудистой, глазной, с помощью индекса повреждения при миозитах. Другим&#xD;
важным аспектом определения влияния заболевания на пациента является качество жизни, в данном случае мы&#xD;
определили низкие оценки как физического так и умственного компонента. Выводы. Длительное течение дерма-&#xD;
томиозита оказывает значительное влияние на функциональную способность и качество жизни пациентов, в том&#xD;
числе, когда активность заболевания находится под контролем. Знание спектра последствий при миопатиях тре-&#xD;
бует основательного междисциплинарного подхода, необходимого для их предотвращения и улучшения качества&#xD;
жизни пациентов.
