[Lyell's syndrome: proposal for a therapeutic protocol].

Toxic epidermal necrolysis or Lyell's syndrome is a life-threatening, drug-induced disorder characterized by severe epidermal injury. Although plasmapheresis is expensive and requires easy venous access, it could be included in the first-line treatment of toxic epidermal necrolysis. The method is safe and effective, providing prompt relief from pain and rapid cessation of necrolysis.

Kidney post-transplant monitoring of urinary glycosaminoglycans/proteoglycans and monokine induced by IFN-γ (MIG).

Allograft rejection during the first year after renal transplantation can lead to persistent allograft dysfunction and reduced long-term graft survival. Thus, it is important to define early predictors of kidney damage, less invasive than allograft biopsy. Urinary glycosaminoglycan/proteoglycan concentration and distribution, N-acetyl-β-(D)-glucosaminidase (NAG), and monokine induced by IFN-γ (MIG) levels were evaluated in the immediate post-transplant and during a 1-year follow-up.
