ABSTRACT

We report a case of pancreatic myeloid sarcoma (MS), an extremely rare manifestation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), in a 35-year-old male who presented with epigastric pain and watery stools. Initial diagnostic testing was inconclusive; however, following an extensive evaluation, endoscopic biopsies suggested AML, which was confirmed by a bone marrow biopsy. Given that few cases are documented in the literature, pancreatic MS without a preexisting hematologic malignancy poses a significant diagnostic challenge.

In this position paper, the American College of Physicians (ACP) examines the challenges women face in the U.S. health care system across their lifespans, including access to care; sex- and gender-specific health issues; variation in health outcomes compared with men; underrepresentation in research studies; and public policies that affect women, their families, and society. ACP puts forward several recommendations focused on policies that will improve the health outcomes of women and ensure a health care system that supports the needs of women and their families over the course of their lifespans.

ABSTRACT

Social determinants of health are nonmedical factors that can affect a person's overall health and health outcomes. Where a person is born and the social conditions they are born into can affect their risk factors for premature death and their life expectancy. In this position paper, the American College of Physicians acknowledges the role of social determinants in health, examines the complexities associated with them, and offers recommendations on better integration of social determinants into the health care system while highlighting the need to address systemic issues hindering health equity.
