Acute Liver Failure With Transient Liver Steatosis Following Multiple Hits Postoperatively in a Patient With Limb‐Girdle Muscular Dystrophy: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Transient liver steatosis is rarely described. A fast development of liver steatosis leading to acute liver failure (ALF) is, to our knowledge, rarely observed. It is so far observed and published in acute fatty liver of pregnancy, and in a few cases of ALF. However, it is observed in elective surgery for pancreaticoduodenectomy and some cases

Meningococcal Serogroup Y Meningitis Reveals Inborn Factor B Deficiency

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 2, February 2026.
We report a novel case of complete complement Factor B deficiency revealed by invasive meningococcal disease. Using combined functional and genetic analyses, we demonstrate that loss of Factor B abolishes alternative pathway activity despite detectable protein levels. These findings provide a mechanistic framework relevant to complement diagnostics and

Retrospective Case Series of Fulminant Metabolic Crisis in GSDIA: Persistent Lactic Acidosis Despite Correction of Hypoglycemia May Reflect Secondary Mitochondrial Dysfunction

JIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Although several advances in glycogen storage disorder (GSD) management have been made over the years, there is still increased morbidity and mortality in these patients, particularly among those with GSD type I (GSDI). Here, we describe a case series of five patients with GSDIa who presented with severe lactic acidosis and passed away without

The use of hydroxocobalamin for vasoplegic syndrome in left ventricular assist device patients

Clinical Case Reports, 2020
We demonstrate evidence supporting the efficacy of hydroxocobalamin in reducing vasopressor requirements for LVAD patients with refractory vasoplegia. Further study is needed to substantiate these findings and determine its optimal use in practice.
