The Power of Potentized Complementary Medicines at Nanoscale for Infectious Diseases Management

Published on: 22nd May, 2025

This study explores the effectiveness of Homeopathy in managing infectious diseases, focusing on its integration with nanoscience. The key objectives include assessing the role of homoeopathic treatments in reducing morbidity and mortality from various infections, such as respiratory, gastrointestinal, and mosquito-borne diseases, and examining the scientific mechanisms behind its therapeutic effects.Key findings from the study include evidence of nanoparticles in highly diluted homoeopathic solutions, suggesting that these remedies may retain measurable amounts of the original substances. This nanoparticulate perspective bridges traditional homoeopathic practices with modern nanomedicine. Historical evidence, such as Hahnemann’s work on scarlet fever and recent studies during the 2006 Chikungunya epidemic, supports the effectiveness of homoeopathic treatments, demonstrating improved recovery rates and reduced complications with integrated homoeopathic and allopathic approaches.The main conclusion of the study is that Homeopathy, particularly when combined with nanoscience, holds significant promise as a complementary approach in the management of infectious diseases. The presence of nanoparticles in homoeopathic remedies may explain their therapeutic effects, positioning Homeopathy as a valuable component of holistic healthcare strategies, especially in developing countries.

Pulmonary Pleomorphic Carcinoma: A Rare Entity Revisited!

Published on: 4th June, 2025

Introduction: Pleomorphic Carcinoma (PC) is a subset of poorly differentiated non–small cell lung cancer that is diagnostically challenging because it is a rare malignancy of the lung. It shows varying dual-cell components; spindle or giant cells and epithelial cells.Method: We report a case of 68-year-old non-smoking female who presented with cough, fever, pain in the left side of chest & weight loss of recent onset and an abnormal shadow on her chest X-ray. Computed tomography of chest revealed a well defined heterogeneously enhancing cavitatory soft tissue lesion in the posterior basal segment of the left lower lobe with mediastinal lymphadenopathy.Results: Fine needle aspiration cytology& percutaneous lung biopsy confirmed poorly differentiated malignant tumor. Patient underwent a left lower lobectomy. A diagnosis of PC was confirmed after Immunohistochemistry (IHC). Mutation analysis revealed an EGFR exon 21 mutation within the tumor cells. The patient is on Gefitinib based chemotherapy and has remained disease-free for three years post-surgery.Conclusion: PC of the lung is a rare pathological entity. Definite diagnosis may only be made on a resected tumor along with the use of IHC. Surgical resection is the main modality of the treatment. Such rare cases should be documented to establish an optimal management plan and to provide a further insight to targeted therapy.

The Rarest Case of Acute Bulbar Palsy due to Internal Jugular Vein Thrombosis Secondary to Protein S Deficiency: Vernet Syndrome

Published on: 10th June, 2025

Dural Venous Sinus Thrombosis (DVST) is a rare although serious clinical entity that causes approximately 0.5% of all stroke cases. Head trauma with skull base fracture, aneurysm, CNS infection, thrombophilia, and vasculitis may be identified as a possible cause of DVST. Vernet’s Syndrome is characterized by a constellation of unilateral cranial nerve palsies involving the 9th, 10th, and 11th cranial nerves due to compression or narrowing of the jugular foramen. We herein present a case of 33 years old Bangladeshi worker from Malaysia who had history of severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) following road traffic accident with multiple skull bone fracture and extradural hematoma 3 months back, presented with acute dysphagia, dysphonia, fever and cough for 6 days. Neurologic examination revealed deviation of uvula to the left side and features of consolidation over right upper chest. Magnetic Resonance Venography (MRV) revealed thrombosis involving right transverse sinus, sigmoid sinus extending up to right internal jugular vein. The diagnosis of vernet syndrome with aspiration pneumonia was made. Later thrombophilia screen showed protein S deficiency. He was treated with broad spectrum antibiotics and started anticoagulation with dabigatran. After 6 months of anticoagulation he recovered fully with no residual neurological deficit.
