Background: Little is known about the effectiveness and drug survival associated with apremilast under real-world conditions.
Objective: To investigate the influence of patient and disease characteristics on drug survival associated with apremilast and to elucidate clinical effectiveness with regard to the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) reduction.
Methods: This was an observational, retrospective, multicenter analysis from the Austrian Psoriasis Registry.
Article Synopsis
- Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a significant cause of central nervous system infections in certain European regions, and this study examines clinical data from 555 confirmed TBE patients across eight centers from 2010 to 2017.
- Most patients (37.3% with meningitis, 49.2% with meningoencephalitis) showed a variety of symptoms, with a small percentage experiencing more severe outcomes, including paralysis and even mortality (0.9%).
- The study highlights the severity of TBE and the need for standardized monitoring protocols in endemic areas to capture the disease's full clinical impact, especially since many patients experience incomplete recovery.
