Diet: Another Piece Of The Crime Puzzle?, Jerrod Brown, Jeremiah Schimp, Leanne Skehan, Amanda Fenrich, Janina Cich
Nutritional Neurocriminology Today
An expanding body of research suggests that diet and nutrition may play an influential yet underrecognized role in problematic and criminal behaviors. This article synthesizes research linking excessive consumption of sugar and ultra-processed foods to adverse neurobehavioral outcomes, impaired impulse control, aggression, mood dysregulation, and sleep problems. Integrating research suggests that metabolic disruption, neuroinflammation, and gut–brain axis dysfunction may influence cognitive and emotional regulation. While criminal behavior is complex and multifactorial, this article emphasizes nutrition as a modifiable factor to inform forensic mental health practice, correctional policy, and rehabilitative strategies.

Journal of Health Research
Background: Evidence indicates that peaceful end-of-life care programs benefit terminally ill patients, with nurses playing a central role in program delivery. However, no structured end-of-life care programs currently exist for patients with head and neck cancer (HNC), who often experience profound physical and psychological distress. A nurse-led Peaceful End-of-Life Care (PEACE) program was therefore developed. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the PEACE program on perceived peaceful end-of-life (PEOL) and quality of life (QoL) among HNC patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT).
Methods: A quasi-experimental, two-group time-series design was conducted with 64 HNC patients recruited from oncology wards at …

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives
Intussusception is predominantly a pediatric condition, with only about 5% of all intussusception cases occurring in adults with primary intestinal lymphomas comprising 1%–4% of gastrointestinal malignancies, 90% of which are B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common subtype of NHL, often leads to intussusception without classical B symptoms. We present the case of a 33-year-old male with ileocolonic intussusception caused by a 4.8 × 5.3 × 5.5 cm enhancing mass. Histopathology and FISH confirmed DLBCL without MYC, BCL2, or BCL6 rearrangements, ruling out double- or triple-hit lymphoma. Following a right ileo-colectomy, R-CHOP(rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, …

Disguised And Dangerous: A Case Of Cervicofacial Actinomycosis Presenting With Hemoptysis, Tharun Shyam, Shamanth M Reddy, Saumya Nanda, Yan Naing Tun, Rohan Pinto, Navjot Somal, Ravi Karan Patti
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives
Actinomycosis is a rare, chronic, suppurative bacterial infection caused by Actinomyces spp with an incidence of 0.3 cases per million people annually. The cervicofacial area is the most common site of infection and accounts for approximately 50 percent of all cases. Most cases of cervicofacial actinomycosis are odontogenic in origin.
Hemoptysis in the setting of actinomycosis commonly occurs from pulmonary involvement. Hemoptysis secondary to isolated cervicofacial actinomycosis has seldom been documented in literature. We hereby present a case of cervicofacial actinomycosis presenting with hemoptysis likely secondary to an oro-cervical fistula. We aim to highlight the challenges in diagnosis of this …

Losartan-Induced Angioedema: A Case Report And Review Of Literature, Leila C. Tou, Audrey Nourse, Rachel Cox, Spencer Stanford
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives
Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) are frequently prescribed as alternatives to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), particularly in patients who experience ACEI-induced adverse effects including cough. Although ARBs are associated with a lower incidence of angioedema, rare cases have been reported in patients without prior ACEI exposure. Here, we describe a 58-year-old Black male who developed lip and facial swelling six months after starting losartan. His symptoms did not improve with antihistamines or corticosteroids but resolved after discontinuation of losartan, which was replaced with amlodipine without recurrence. This case emphasizes the need for clinician awareness of ARB-induced angioedema and the importance of …

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, is a chronic immune-mediated condition requiring long-term management. Traditional immunosuppressants, such as corticosteroids, thiopurines, and methotrexate, have been widely used but are associated with broad immunosuppressive effects and significant adverse events. The advent of biological therapies, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors, integrin inhibitors, and interleukin (IL)-12/23 inhibitors, has revolutionized IBD treatment by offering targeted immune modulation. Biologics have demonstrated superior efficacy in achieving and maintaining remission compared to traditional immunosuppressants, particularly in moderate to severe IBD. They provide targeted immune suppression, reducing systemic side effects, but are associated with …

A Strategy For Surge Management: Senior Residents On The Admitting Frontlines, Hamza Saifuddin, Oliver Yockey, Rachelle Pichot, Gwendolyn Brainard, Samantha Labay, Michael S. Wang
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives
Hospitals adapt to surges in a variety of ways, including expediting admitting and discharge procedures, hiring temporary staff and locums to meet increased demand, and temporarily expanding or creating facilities. To mitigate negative effects associated with surges, a small community-based hospital’s Internal Medicine (IM) residency program and hospitalist program collaborated by shifting senior residents into admitting physician roles with indirect supervision to meet increased surge needs. This shift allowed an admitting attending physician to shift to a newly created rounding service and, on average, the number of rounding services was increased from seven to nine. Over a fifteen-month period (five …
