Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyse data from two previously published individual studies and two meta-analyses of the Ascertain Dementia 8 (AD8) cognitive screening instrument to calculate the recently described ‘likelihood to be diagnosed or misdiagnosed’ (LDM) metric, the ratio of ‘number needed to misdiagnose’ (NNM = 1/Inaccuracy) to either ‘number needed to diagnose’ (NND = 1/Youden index) or ‘number needed to predict’ (NNP = 1/predictive summary index).ResultsRaw data (true positives and negatives, false positives and negatives) were extracted and LDM values for the diagnosis of dementia were calculated

Occlusion of a coronary artery by an acute type A aortic dissection presents a life-threatening emergency that is rarely seen and easy to misdiagnose.

Following an initial misdiagnosis of acute coronary syndrome, imaging revealed the presence of an aortic dissection.

Abstract:
Background. Identifying bicornuate uterus can be challenging especially as a cause of early pregnancy bleeding. On ultrasonographic examination, it is difficult to misdiagnose pregnancy in a bicornuate uterus as an ectopic pregnancy due to the continuity of the endometrium. A rudimentary horn of a bicornuate uterus in early pregnancy can occasionally be misdiagnosed for an ectopic pregnancy especially when compounded by severe abdominal pains and supportive sonographic evidence. Myometrial invasive grading of placenta may be necessary for emergency preparedness and consenting. Hemihysterectomy

Abstract:
Kounis syndrome is an acute coronary syndrome occurring in a context of anaphylaxis, it still an underdiagnosed syndrome. The prognosis of Kounis syndrome remains better than a conventional acute coronary syndrome, we describe 3types of Kounis syndrome with different kind of management, however further management guidelines are still needed to avoid misdiagnose or make the prognosis worse. We report a case of 24 years old Kounis syndrome after a sting of bee, its management in our ED.

Abstract:
An 82-year-old woman treated for advanced lung cancer with gefitinb was admitted to the emergency unit complaining of dyspnea. Chest computed tomography found abnormalities classified as possible diffuse COVID-19 pneumonia. RT-PCR for Sars-Cov-2 was twice negative. PCR for Pneumocystis jirovecii was positive on bronchoalveolar lavage. The final diagnosis was Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia. Therefore, physicians must be careful not to misdiagnose COVID-19, especially in cancer patients on small-molecule therapeutics like gefitinib and corticosteroids.
