Abstract

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a global concern. Globally, 36.7 million people are living with HIV and 1 million people died at the end of 2016. There is an association between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with neurological manifestations. Between 1% and 5% of patients with HIV develop stroke. The pathogenesis of AIDS with stroke is still controversial. A 37-year-old male patient with AIDS had an embolic stroke. The diagnosis of the patient was based on clinical condition and the CT scan results of the head with contrast. The stroke-causing mechanism in patients is HIV-associated vasculopathy that results from accelerated atherosclerosis. After administration of antiplatelet and statin, the patient’s condition improves.

Abstract

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a hyperglycemic condition that is first discovered during pregnancy. GDM is a high-risk condition during pregnancy, for both mother and fetus. GDM affects about 1–14% of pregnancies. In the last 20 years, the incidence of gestational diabetes has been increasing. High iron load and disorders of iron metabolism have been associated with glucose metabolism. The beta thalassemias are a group of hereditary hemoglobinopathies. Treatment for beta thalassemias patients is transfusion, but intensive transfusion can aggravate iron overload in patients. In this study, a case of GDM in a pregnant woman with beta-thalassemia was reported.
