The transition is a key step for adolescents with chronic illnesses, as they are at risk of a disruption in care, complications and even mortality. Accompanying this process is based on two axes autonomization of the young person (acquisition of knowledge and know-how in a perspective of empowerment) and structuring of the care pathway (transition measures, pediatric/adult service coordination).Over the past 15 years, the literature on mobile phone-based interventions for adolescents with type 1 diabetes has increased. While the majority of these interventions focus on therapeutic education of patients, others encourage them to take care of themselves in a broader sense. Young people express great satisfaction with these interventions, but the effectiveness in terms of metabolic control remains to be confirmed.The management of type 1 diabetes in paediatrics has evolved considerably over the last 20 years, mainly through the use of new technologies. The challenge of managing this disease is to achieve good glycaemic control in order to prevent complications while maintaining a good quality of life. What are the current and future means of achieving this?The concept of prenatal physical activity has transitioned from a potentially risky behaviour to a prescription to improve maternal-fetal health. Pregnant women who are hospitalized because of a complication should continue to engage in light activities of daily living given the known adverse effects of maternal bedrest. Because the amount physical activity performed by pregnant women while in hospital not been documented; we compared levels of physical activity between women who were and were not hospitalized during pregnancy. We found that hospitalized pregnant women self-impose bedrest even in the absence of a medical recommendation. To present an interesting case of left opaque hemithorax in an adult female and discuss its assessment and management. Design Case Report. Tertiary care hospital. One. 44yrs retropositive female admitted with complaints of acute onset dry cough since 15-20 days, sudden breathlesness since 5 days which was progressive in nature, left sided heaviness in chest since 5 days. CECT Thorax showed complete collapse of left lung with cut off of left main bronchus while video bronchoscopy showed left main bronchus completely blocked with very thick necrotic mass and was difficult to dislodge. Debulking with cryo probe was done and left main bronchus was completely cleared off. Allergen panel showed very high serum IgE, high S.IgE against aspergillus and high specific S.IgG against aspergillus. Patient and her Chest X-ray showed significant improvement post cryo debulking and was discharged satisfactorily on oral voriconazole therapy. Endobronchial aspergillosis is characterized by massive intrabronchial oveed with endobronchial aspergillosis with complete obliteration of left main bronchus by fungal debris in which cryo debulking was done which relieved the symptoms significantly and was discharged in satisfactory condition on oral voriconazole therapy.Myocardial tuberculosis is an exceptionally rare form of extra-pulmonary TB. Few cases were reported world-wide. Here a young snake charmer who had skin tuberculosis 5 yrs back admitted into National institute of diseases of Chest and hospital (NIDCH), Dhaka with the complaints of cough, palpitation and breathlessness for 2 months. He had right axillary firm matted lymphadenopathy, left sided large pleural effusion, left ventricular and septal hypertrophy with band and mass inside the ventricle (evident on CT scan of heart and echocardiography). His ESR was 95 mm in1st hr, Mantaux test was 15mm, Pleural fluid was exudative lymphocyte predominant with adenosin deaminase (ADA) 68.6 U/L. Fine needle aspirates from right axillary LNs showed Mycobacterium tuberculosis on GeneXpert for MTB/RIF testing and caseous granuloma on cytopathological stu
