NEJMがとても役立ちますよ、ということを以前お話ししましたが、
最新号の“Case Records of the MGH”を紹介します。

Case 17-2019: A 44-Year-Old Man with Joint Pain, Weight Loss, and Chest Pain.(NEJM 2019;380:2157-2167.)

心嚢水貯留をきたす疾患の鑑別を学ぶことが出来ます。
病理所見も興味深いですよ。

ついでに、最近のNEJM論文も紹介します。

REVIEW ARTICLE: Contrast-Associated Acute Kidney Injury.(NEJM 2019;380:2146-2155.)
造影剤による急性腎障害の総説ですが、あんまりすっきりしませんね。

More recent studies have suggested that the risk of acute kidney injury due to contrast material is overestimated.
However, reliance on a definition based on small increments in the plasma creatinine level, which are frequently transient and nonspecific for contrast-induced damage, coupled with observational studies showing an association with serious, adverse outcomes without known cause, has limited meaningful progress in determining the clinical importance of this condition.

BRIEF REPORT: Mesenchymal Hamartoma of the Liver and DICER1 Syndrome.(NEJM 2019;380:1834-1842.)
DICER1症候群は、成人と小児に影響を及ぼす良性腫瘍と悪性腫瘍を含む多面的腫瘍素因症候群です。
本症候群には、胸膜肺芽腫、嚢胞性腎腫、卵巣の性索間質性腫瘍、多結節性甲状腺腫および甲状腺がんならびに松果体芽腫および下垂体芽腫を含む脳腫瘍といったリスクが含まれますが、こんなのもあるんですね。

Case 14-2019: A 44-Year-Old Man with Neck Pain and Swelling.(NEJM 2019;380:1854-1863.)
Historyが大切!
REVIEW ARTICLE FRONTIERS IN MEDICINE: Machine Learning in Medicine.(NEJM 2019;380:1347-1358.)
誰もが関心のある、医学における機械学習の総説です。
ただ、Google社員も共著者に入っていますので、信用すべきか宣伝目的なのか、注意深く読むべきと思います。
