Refractory insulin resistance and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis following enfortumab vedotin treatment: A case report.

The increasing incidence of urothelial carcinoma, coupled with advancements in its therapeutic landscape, has resulted in improved survival rates for patients. This, in turn, has led to a growing population of patients requiring specialized oncological care, with Enfortumab vedotin (EV) emerging as a pivotal treatment for metastatic urothelial carcinoma. While EV is associated with hyperglycemia, ketoacidosis is exceedingly rare.

Variability of Faecal Calprotectin in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients: An Observational Case-control Study.

Background And Aims: Several factors have been reported to affect faecal calprotectin [FC] values, and significant variation in FC concentrations has been observed in inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] patients. We aimed to evaluate FC variability in IBD patients, and to assess the robustness of a single stool punch.

Methods: This is a single-centre observational case-control study.

Development of co-selected single nucleotide polymorphisms in the viral promoter precedes the onset of human immunodeficiency virus type 1-associated neurocognitive impairment.

The long terminal repeat (LTR) regulates gene expression of HIV-1 by interacting with multiple host and viral factors. Cross-sectional studies in the pre-HAART era demonstrated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in peripheral blood-derived LTRs (a C-to-T change at position 3 of C/EBP site I (3T) and at position 5 of Sp site III (5T)) increased in frequency as disease severity increased. Additionally, the 3T variant correlated with HIV-1-associated dementia.
