Clitoral abscess presenting as benign clitoral swelling in an adolescent: a gynecologist’s Halley’s comet

Aditi Singh, Nishi Makhija, Reema Jain

Clitoral abscess is an uncommon vulvar infection that is often overlooked because of its rarity to the vulvar lesions. Delayed diagnosis may result in significant pain, local complications and potential impairment of clitoral function. Clitoral abscess is an exceptionally rare cause of vulval pain and swelling, with fewer cases reported in the literature. Because of its rarity, diagnosis is frequently delayed and may mimic other vulvar lesions. We reported a 17-years-old, not sexually active female with acute painf …

Causal mediation pathways in continuous postprandial glucose monitoring for type 1 diabetes patients

Spencer Hilligoss, Annie Qu

Abstract Managing postprandial glucose in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) requires understanding how carbohydrate intake affects glucose through both direct pathways and insulin-mediated compensation. Standard analyses treat insulin as a confounder rather than a mediator, obscuring these distinct causal channels and patient-level heterogeneity in carbohydrate response. Using meal-centered continuous glucose monitoring windows from twelve adults in the OhioT1DM cohorts, we apply causal mediation analysis to decompos …
