Upcoming Case Discussions
Treatment of Renal Disease in ANCA Vasculitis
The treatment of renal disease in ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) typically involves a combination of immunosuppressive therapies to control inflammation and prevent further kidney damage. First-line treatment often includes high-dose corticosteroids and cyclophosphamide or rituximab, both of which help to induce remission by targeting the underlying immune system dysfunction. In cases of kidney failure or rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, plasmapheresis may be used to remove circulating autoantibodies. Once remission is achieved, maintenance therapy with lower doses of immunosuppressants, such as azathioprine or mycophenolate mofetil, is used to prevent relapses and preserve kidney function.
Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Challenges in Diagnosis
Diagnosing pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) poses significant challenges, particularly in resource-limited settings. The disease often mimics other respiratory conditions, leading to delayed or missed diagnoses. Traditional diagnostic methods like sputum smear microscopy have limited sensitivity, especially in HIV co-infected or low-bacterial-load patients. Advanced techniques such as GeneXpert and culture tests, though more accurate, are often unavailable in remote areas. Children and immunocompromised patients present additional hurdles due to atypical symptoms and difficulty obtaining diagnostic samples. Non-specific imaging findings further complicate diagnosis. Addressing these challenges requires expanded access to molecular diagnostics, improved point-of-care tools, and greater healthcare awareness.

Patients consulting with Dr Viny can be assured of receiving an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, thanks to her commitment to prompt and comprehensive care.
AI in Genetics and Genomics
AI is revolutionizing genetics and genomics by enabling faster and more accurate analysis of complex genetic data. Machine learning algorithms can identify patterns in DNA sequences, helping to discover new genetic variants linked to diseases. Additionally, AI assists in predicting gene functions, personalizing medicine, and accelerating drug development. Its integration promises significant advancements in understanding genetic diseases and improving healthcare outcomes.
Management of Pediatric Type 1 Diabetes
Pediatric type 1 diabetes management focuses on maintaining glycemic control while supporting normal growth. Insulin therapy, via multiple daily injections or pumps, is essential, with doses adjusted based on blood glucose monitoring or continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Nutrition plans emphasizing carbohydrate counting and balanced meals are crucial, alongside adjustments for physical activity to prevent glucose fluctuations. Education for families on recognizing hypo- and hyperglycemia symptoms and managing sick days is vital. Regular follow-ups with a pediatric endocrinologist help monitor HbA1c levels, growth, and complications. Psychosocial support is key for ensuring adherence and addressing emotional challenges.
