Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by damage to organs and cells, initially mediated by tissue-binding autoantibodies and immune complexes. Lymphomas have been frequently reported, but the association of SLE with acute leukemia is rare and likely coincidental. We report a case of a 40-year-old female admitted for an etiological diagnosis of fever and dyspnea with peripheral edema.

The discovery of branched molecules like dextrin by Schardinger in 1903 marked the inception of cyclodextrin (CD) utilization, catalyzing its journey from laboratory experimentation to widespread commercialization within the pharmaceutical industry. CD, a cyclic oligosaccharide containing glucopyranose units, acts as a versatile guest molecule, forming inclusion complexes (ICs) with various host molecules. Computational studies have become instrumental in elucidating the intricate interactions between β-CD and guest molecules, enabling the prediction of binding energy, forces, affinity, and complex stability.

Background: Identifying risk factors for HIV rebound after treatment interruption is crucial for designing effective remission strategies.

Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from participants in the Zurich HIV Primary Infection Cohort (ZPHI, N=73) and ACTG study A5345 (N=44) were analyzed before ART interruption. We measured cell-associated HIV RNA, total HIV DNA, and proviral diversity (env gene).
