Abdominal Aortic Dissection Associated with Primary Aldosteronism: A Case Report and Review of Emerging Evidence
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common and potentially curable cause of secondary hypertension associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality beyond blood pressure levels. Aldosterone excess contributes to vascular damage through pro-inflammatory, pro-fibrotic and remodelling effects on the arterial wall. An association between PA and aortic diseases has been increasingly reported but remains underrecognized in clinical practice.
We report a case of a…

Smartphone-Associated Musculoskeletal Syndrome (SAMS): Characterization of a Novel Clinical Entity and Evidence-Based Physiotherapy Management Framework
Background: Prolonged smartphone use has emerged as a significant but under characterized etiology of musculoskeletal dysfunction. While individual conditions such as "text neck" have been documented, no unified clinical framework defining Smartphone-Associated Musculoskeletal Syndrome (SAMS) with integrated physiotherapy management pathways has been established.
Objective: To characterize SAMS as a distinct clinical syndrome encompassing…
