Long-term efficacy of MAS825, a bispecific anti-IL1β and IL-18 monoclonal antibody, in two patients with sJIA and recurrent episodes of MAS.

Introduction: Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA), a multifaceted autoinflammatory disorder, can be complicated by life-threatening conditions such as macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). The management of these conditions presents a therapeutic challenge, underscoring the need for innovative treatment approaches.

Objectives: to report the possible role of MAS825, a bispecific anti-IL1β and IL-18 monoclonal antibody, in the treatment of multi-drug-resistant sJIA.

Application and internal validation of lung ultrasound score in COVID-19 setting: The ECOVITA observational study.

Background: The severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronarovirus-2 associated still causes a significant number of deaths and hospitalizations mainly by the development of respiratory failure. We aim to validate lung ultrasound score in order to predict mortality and the severity of the clinical course related to the need of respiratory support.

Methods: In this prospective multicenter hospital-based cohort study, all adult patients with diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection, performed by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were included.

Ultrasound-Guided Regional Anesthesia Using a Mixture of Dexamethasone, Dexmedetomidine, and 0.2% Levobupivacaine for Bilateral Breast Cancer Surgery Under a Spontaneous Breathing Opioid-Free Anesthesia: A Case Report.

Breast cancer is unfortunately the most common cancer in women, although survival rates have greatly increased in recent years. Breast surgery can be very aggressive and therefore highly painful, leading to high rates of acute postsurgical pain and chronic pain. In addition to general anesthesia (GA), ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia (RA) is sometimes performed to help reduce acute postoperative pain and consumption of opioids.

Pharmacokinetic parameters of CAZ-AVI in the normal lung and in models of pneumonia: lessons for treatment optimization in critical care.

The spread of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections is a significant issue for worldwide public health. Gram-negative organisms regularly develop resistance to antibiotics, especially to β-lactam antimicrobials, which can drastically restrict the number of therapies. A third-generation cephalosporin and the non-β-lactam β-lactamase inhibitor avibactam, which exhibits broad-spectrum β-lactamase inhibition , are combined to form ceftazidime-avibactam (CAZ-AVI).
