“Metformin-associated Src inhibitor lactic acidosis is a very rare but critical condition. It is seen in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who take metformin and attempt suicide with a metformin overdose. Here, we report a 43-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic renal insufficiency who developed hypoglycemia, hypothermia, tachycardia and lactic acidosis after a suicide attempt with
a metformin overdose. She was successfully treated by continuous venovenous hemofiltration, and adequate hemodynamic and ventilatory support. Although metformin does not usually cause hypoglycemia when administered as monotherapy, hypoglycemia can occur in a condition coexistent with lactic acidosis secondary to metformin overdose. Metformin intoxication should be suspected when patients present with high anion gap metabolic acidosis after attempting suicide by ingesting drugs, particularly when comorbidities such as renal failure are present. Early diagnosis and rapid correction of the metabolic acidosis using hemodialysis
or hemofiltration, together with concomitant cardiovascular support, and maintenance of blood glucose and core body temperature, provide the possibility of a positive outcome.”

Default has been associated with increased mortality and amplification of drug resistance, and may contribute to the high MDR-TB rates in Moldova.
OBJECTIVE: To assess risk factors and timing of default from treatment for non-MDR-TB from 2007 to 2010.
DESIGN: A retrospective analysis of routine surveillance data on all non-MDR-TB patients reported.
RESULTS: A total of 14.7% of non-MDR-TB patients defaulted
from treatment during the study period. Independent risk factors for default included sociodemographic factors, such as homelessness, living alone, less formal education and spending substantial time outside Moldova in the year prior to diagnosis; and health-related factors such as human immunodeficiency virus co-infection, greater lung pathology and increasing TB drug resistance. Anti-tuberculosis treatment is usually initiated within an institutional setting in Moldova, and the default risk was highest in the month following the phase of hospitalized treatment (among civilians) and after leaving prison (among those diagnosed while incarcerated).
