RESUMEN

@#<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Objective:</strong> To determine the Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY) weights of road traffic injuries and use the DALY weights in determining the total DALYs lost in Metro Manila using available data.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Methods:</strong> Consensus on DALY weights for each of the 31 International Classification of Diseases (ICD)10 codes related to road traffic injuries was done using Delphi Process. Experts from different fields were invited to participate in 2 rounds of discussion-and-scoring were done to obtain consensus were obtained for each DALY weight. Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PHIC) data on the counts of the 31 ICD 10 coded claims for the years 2011, 2012, and 2013 were obtained and used to calculate the total DALY lost due to vehicular injuries for Metro-Manila.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Results:</strong> Road traffic related injuries affected mostly young people (mean 34 yo + 15) and affected mostly men (81%). There were a total of 3,199 injuries seen in 2,573 patients. 98.1% of the patients had a < 1 year type of injury with an average disability weight of 0.34154 and a total DALYs lost of 300.4. 0.5% of the patients had a ? 1 year type of injury with an average disability weight of 0.2726 and a total DALYs lost of 218.08.1.4% of the patients most likely died from their injuries earning a total DALYs lost of 1,440.The sum of DALYs lost is equivalent to a total of 1,958.12.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Conclusion:</strong> The Metro Manila loses roughly Php 76.6 Million per year due to road traffic injuries and accidents. These events are highly preventable. Without proper interventions, road traffic injuries may lead to impoverishment of the young families who pick up the pieces, or are left behind.</p>

RESUMEN

@#We report the case of a patient with hypoglycemic symptoms and weight gain. Biochemical investigations revealed endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. A CT scan and MRI of the abdomen were initially not successful in localizing a pancreatic mass. However, an endoscopic ultrasound was able to demonstrate a pancreatic head mass. Enucleation of the mass resulted in clinical and biochemical improvement. This report also demonstrates the pattern of weight loss after surgery, showing an initial phase of gradual weight loss followed by a rapid loss of weight. This pattern of weight loss after successful removal of an insulin-producing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor is a novel addition to the existing knowledge we have about this condition.
