RESUMO
Mpox-related ophthalmic disease has been reported as infrequent. We retrospectively describe the ocular manifestations present in 11 of 100 patients with confirmed mpox; 9 were people with HIV. We suggest that an ophthalmological evaluation should be performed in all patients with ocular symptoms or moderate and severe mpox disease.

Charcot Neuroarthropaty (CN) is a complication of diabetes with devastating consequences as it produces severe deformities in the foot developing in recurrent ulcers that rise the probability of amputation. There are several diseases mentioned in the literature that have to be considered for the differential diagnosis of CN, often related to the acute phase (gout, ankle sprain, inflammatory arthritis, cellulitis, venous thrombosis) but there is paucity of information related to the differential diagnosis in later stages (coalescence, remodeling) when there is deformity of the foot. Clinicians and diabetologists are not familiarized with orthopedic pathology and do not have in mind certain diseases that could mimic CN in the subacute or chronic phases and this can develop in a wrong diagnosis. It is important to make a correct diagnosis in patients with suspected CN not only in the acute phase but also in the chronic phase to establish an accurate treatment. This article is a review of the differential diagnosis of CN in subacute and chronic phases showing similarities and differences that can help clinicians and diabetologists to make an accurate diagnosis and treatment. We describe unusual diseases like tendon and muscles disorders, Frieberg's disease, complex pain regional syndrome, transient regional osteoporosis and osteomyelitis superimposed to CN and the main features of each one that could help in making a differential diagnosis.
RESUMO
UNLABELLED: Although there has been a rapid increase in Latino populations in the United States over the last 10 years, health research with Latino cultural groups is sorely lacking. In the area of pain-coping research, one consequence of the limited research is that very little is known about pain coping among Latinos. The purpose of this paper is to review the existing literature on pain coping in Latino populations, and to propose new directions for the future study of pain coping in Latino populations. This review is divided into 4 sections. In the first section, the challenges of defining Latino populations are discussed. In the second section, the current literature on pain coping in Latinos is reviewed. Third, we discuss the implications of existing findings for pain-coping assessment and pain treatment. Finally, we offer ideas for future research on pain coping in Latino populations. PERSPECTIVE: In this review article, we identify gaps in our current understanding of pain coping in Latino cultural groups, and associated implications for pain assessment and treatment. We also highlight potential directions for future pain-coping research with Latino populations.
