Rifampicin is one of the most effective anti-tubercular agents. Among its rare adverse effects, acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is noteworthy. Here, we describe the case history of a 55-year-old female with tubercular lymphadenitis who developed rifampicin induced AIN upon re-exposure and recovered satisfactorily without requiring steroids. Rifampicin induced AIN should be kept in mind when patients present with acute kidney injury as prompt diagnosis and discontinuation of the drug has excellent prognosis.Birdem Med J 2018; 8(3): 257-259

Aim of our reporting is to acknowledge the rarity, clinical parameters and management. How to cite this article Mandal D, Dattaray C, Roy S.

Typical Antipsychotics

Rabbit syndrome (RS) is an antipsychoticinduced rhythmic motion of the mouth/lips resembling the chewing movements of a rabbit. The movement consists of a vertical-only motion, at about 5 Hz, with no involvement of the tongue. Long-term exposure to typical antipsychotics has clearly been associated with RS, but little is known of the risk of RS due to exposure to newer atypical antipsychotics. There have been isolated reports of RS in patients treated with the atypical agents risperidone, aripiprazole, olanzapine, and clozapine. We present the case history of a 44-year old female patient treated for paranoid schizophrenia for 22 years and RS during her last 10-month clozapine treatment. Background information from the literature is also discussed.

History Of

This is a detailed case history of one of London's iconic new-media companies, AMX Studios. Some of the changes in this firm, we assume, are not atypical for other firms in this sector. In particular we want to draw attention to two transformations. The first change in AMX and in London's new-media industry more generally refers to the field of industrial relations. What can be observed is a shift from a rather heterarchically organised new-media industry towards a more hierarchically organised one, a shift from short-term project networks to long-term client dependency. The second change refers to new-media products and services. We want to argue for a shift from cool content production towards consultancy and interactive communications solutions.
