Hypotensive Episodes Precede Cognitive Fluctuations in Parkinson's Disease Dementia
Abstract Background Cognitive fluctuations (CFs) are a disabling feature in Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and contribute to caregiver burden. The relationship between CFs and neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH), a common autonomic complication in PDD, has not been adequately examined.

Probable Tigecycline‐Induced Acute Eosinophilic Pneumonia: A Case Report
A 25‐year‐old man developed acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure after 21 days of tigecycline therapy for osteomyelitis caused by multidrug‐resistant organisms. Although the clinical response followed multiple simultaneous interventions and therefore does not establish causality, the overall findings support tigecycline as the probable causative agent.
