Brain and Mind Institute

Underdiagnosis of cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) may represent an unrecognised biological pathway contributing to dementia risk; yet remains poorly characterised in African and African diaspora populations. We quantified the prevalence and determinants of underdiagnosed hypertension and abnormal glycaemia across four cohorts comprising up to 7000 adults aged ≥40 years from Nigeria, Kenya, and The United States: Indianapolis, and North Texas. Underdiagnosis was defined as absence of self-reported diagnosis despite elevated systolic blood pressure ( ≥130 mmHg) or fasting blood glucose ( ≥100 mg/dL). Cohort-stratified analyses examined demographic, socioeconomic, cognitive, Alzheimer’s genetic, and blood-based biomarker correlates. Underdiagnosis was pervasive in African …

An Aggressive Presentation Of Anti-Melanoma Differentiation-Associated Gene 5 (Mda-5)-Positive Dermatomyositis With Rapidly Progressive Interstitial Lung Disease: A Case Report, Zamanali Khakhar, Shreedhi Patel, Rajiv Patel, Soraiya Manji, Fredrick Otieno, Sayed Karar Jun 2026

Internal Medicine, East Africa

Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA-5) dermatomyositis is an uncommon condition that is frequently complicated by rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD), resulting in a poor prognosis. Due to its aggressive course, management is often challenging and requires timely interventions to improve outcomes. This case of a female patient with anti-MDA-5-positive DM and RP-ILD aims to document this unique and uncommon condition, its aggressive clinical course, associated complications, diagnostic challenges, and management considerations.

Long-Term Follow-Up Of A Child With Hypermanganesemia With Dystonia, Polycythemia And Cirrhosis, Durray Shahwar, Jay Kumari, Prem Chand Jun 2026

Long-Term Follow-Up Of A Child With Hypermanganesemia With Dystonia, Polycythemia And Cirrhosis, Durray Shahwar, Jay Kumari, Prem Chand

Pakistan Journal of Neurological Sciences (PJNS)

Hypermanganesemia with dystonia, polycythemia and cirrhosis (HMDPC) is a rare but treatable inherited metal deposition syndrome, which occurs due to mutation in SLC30A10 gene. This leads to increase in manganese (Mn) levels in the blood and its deposition in the brain, muscles and liver which results in extrapyramidal symptoms, polycythemia and/or liver cirrhosis. This case report describes a five-year follow-up of a child with HMDPC treated with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as chelation therapy. This case also highlights the importance of early recognition and initiation of treatment for children with HMDPC and emphasizes the need for screening of siblings for early …

Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing Outcomes From An African Registry: Short-Term Findings From The Macop Study, Willy Mucyo, Marcus Ngantcha, Mzee Ngunga, Miriam Msunza, Justin Ragadu, Klindheer Rampersad, Jeilan Mohamed, Brian Vezi

Internal Medicine, East Africa

Background

Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing (LBBAP) provides physiological ventricular activation and has emerged as an alternative to conventional cardiac resynchronization therapy. Data on LBBAP outcomes in African populations remain scarce.

Objective

To describe procedural outcomes of LBBAP in an African cohort.

Methods

A descriptive registry study included 311 patients from Kenya and South Africa who underwent LBBAP between 2021 and 2024. Data on pacing thresholds, QRS duration (QRSd), fluoroscopy time, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were collected and analyzed. Patients were stratified by baseline QRSd categories, conduction patterns, pacing indication, and LVEF.

Results

The mean age was 65±14 …

Internal Medicine, East Africa

Background Schistosomiasis causes substantial chronic morbidity in sub-Saharan Africa, yet case definitions, clinical management guidance, and health worker training for schistosomiasis-related morbidity remain limited.

Methods We conducted a qualitative needs assessment for schistosomiasis morbidity management. Workshops were held over one day in each of Pakwach, Buliisa, and Mayuge Districts in Uganda in October 2024. 105 government health workers participated including clinicians, nurses, laboratory technicians, sonographers, and district health managers from health facilities at different levels of care. The workshops comprised six structured sessions: presentations on schistosomiasis burden in Uganda and the SchistoTrack cohort, a clinical case report by an expert …
