Livedoid Vasculitis in a Patient With Sjogren Syndrome Successfully Treated With Methotrexate.
Clin Med Insights Case Rep
March 2022
Introduction: Cutaneous vasculitis occurs in a sizable minority of patients with Sjogren syndrome. In addition, their response to different modalities of therapy is variable.
Case Description: We present a case of a 66-year-old female with Sjogren syndrome cutaneous vasculitis in whom combination treatment with Rituximab and Azathioprine failed to show a favorable response.
Background: The effect of coronavirus disease 2019 on the immune system is increasingly recognized. When severe, it causes immune dysregulation that may favor other infections, including Herpesviridae. Cytomegalovirus shares many innate immune pathways with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which may potentiate each other.

- Calcification around the shoulder joint typically occurs in the rotator cuff tendons, but this report details an unusual case of extensive calcification of the shoulder joint capsule in an 86-year-old man with Rheumatoid arthritis.
- The patient, who had been treated with Methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine, experienced worsening shoulder pain and stiffness despite the addition of adalimumab, leading to MRI findings of severe arthritis with significant capsular calcification.
- This unique case suggests that long-standing inflammation, along with factors like Diabetes Mellitus and genetic predisposition, may contribute to such calcification, and treatment options include various therapies tailored to manage symptoms and reduce calcification size.
Objective: This article is a systematic review of the impact of technology-based intervention on outcomes related to care providers for those who survived a stroke.
Materials And Methods: Literature was identified in the PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Cochrane databases for evidence on technology-based interventions for stroke survivors' caregivers. The search was restricted for all English-language articles from 1970 to February 2015 that implied technology-based interventions.
