  Article: Pleural effusions: evaluation and management.

  José C Yataco, Raed A Dweik
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: Pleural effusions are very common, and physicians of all specialties encounter them. A pleural effusion represents the disruption of the normal mechanisms of formation and drainage of fluid from the pleural space. A rational diagnostic workup, emphasizing the most common causes, will reveal the etiology in most cases.

• Article: Restless legs syndrome: keys to recognition and treatment.

  Jaime F Avecillas, Joseph A Golish, Carmen Giannini, José C Yataco
  [show abstract] [hide abstract]
  ABSTRACT: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a common and clinically significant motor disorder increasingly recognized by physicians and the general public, yet still underdiagnosed, underreported, and undertreated. Effective therapies are available, but a high index of suspicion is required to make the diagnosis and start treatment quickly. We now have enough data to support the use of dopaminergic agents, benzodiazepines, antiepileptics, and opioids in these patients.
