Résumé

15-year-old adolescent girl presented with weight gain, irregular menstrual cycle, skin lesions suggestive of acanthosis nigricans and hirsutism. On evaluation, she was found to have elevated testosterone levels with normal FSH, LH and fasting blood sugar, decreased glucose insulin index suggestive of Insulin resistance. In view of above features, diagnosis of hyperandrogenism-insulin resistance-acanthosis nigricans syndrome (HAIR-AN syndrome) was made. This syndrome is considered as a sub-type of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). HAIR-AN syndrome has varied presentation and is usually seen by primary care physician, gynaecologist or dermatologist. Life style modification with weight reduction and drugs such as metformin helps in alleviating the symptoms. With limited resources in our country, diagnosis is frequently delayed leading to systemic complications. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment would help in preventing complications of obesity, insulin resistance leading to coronary artery disease, Type 2 diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia. Depression and suicidal behavior may be associated with it and should be aggressively addressed in young adults suffering from HAIR-AN syndrome.

Résumé

Twelve patients of elapid ophitoxaemia presented with neuromuscular paralytic features were given anticholinesterase (Neostigmine) in recommended dosage. In four of these patients, despite neuromuscular paralysis, no ASV was used. All these four patients survived. In eight patients, ASV was used; in three of whom it used in doses less than 50 units, yet patients survived. Of the remaining five, despite use of ASV in higher doses (more than 50 units), two succumbed to death. Eight patients required ventilatory support. Hence, in absence of any definite role of ASV in management of elapid ophitoxaemia (snake bite), use of anticholinesterase drugs alone, with good supportive care and prevention of likely complications, can result in satisfactory outcome.
