• Falling

  A prior CT Scan (2 months prior) showed a perinephric hematoma, secondary to a ground-level fall on anticoagulation. She was instructed to follow up with Urology for repeat imaging, but could not. [sma.org]

  […] characterized and their genome sizes range from 3.75 to 4.64 Mbp.[27] These differences in genomovar genomes are believed to have been caused by chromosomal rearrangements during its evolution.[27] The GC content of the genomes of P. stutzeri strains falls [en.wikipedia.org]

• Epilepsy

  We report a pediatric case of nosocomially acquired P. stutzeri brain abscess after subdural grid implantation before surgery for refractory epilepsy and review the literature. [cambridge.org]

• Collapse

  […] a variety of illnesses, including: endocarditis, infections of the bone, eye, skin or urinary tract, meningitis, pneumonia, arthritis, and several others.[3] Some patients even have health conditions as serious as tumors, infected joint cavities and collapsed [en.wikipedia.org]

• Altered Mental Status

  Case Description: A 65-year-old female with a history of Rheumatoid Arthritis on Sarilumab, Factor V Leiden deficiency, and Pulmonary Embolism on Apixaban presented with altered mental status, dyspnea, and dysuria. [sma.org]

The patient had an extensive workup that was unsuccessful in determining the cause of uveitis. His medical history was unremarkable, and he was not immunocompromised. [karger.com]

Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with possible infective endocarditis (IE) according to the Modified Duke Criteria (MDC) for further workup including blood cultures and empirical antibiotic treatment was started (vancomycin 1 g IV twice daily and [mdpi.com]

  The knee X-ray showed severe joint space narrowing (grade III–IV arthrosis). [elsevier.es]
