Article Synopsis
  • - Osteopoikilosis (OPK) is a rare, benign genetic bone condition characterized by the presence of osteosclerosis foci, and while most cases are asymptomatic, some patients experience joint pain and inflammation.
  • - The case study focuses on a 33-year-old patient with concurrent ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and OPK, highlighting the complications such as severe inflammation and poor response to standard treatments, but a positive reaction to a specific TNF inhibitor.
  • - The report emphasizes the importance of distinguishing OPK from serious conditions like neoplastic lesions, urging doctors to be aware of these rare cases to avoid unnecessary testing.

Unlabelled: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed the understanding of the safety profile of therapies for immunoinflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRDs). This is primarily due to the negative impact of a number of basic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) and genetically engineered biological drugs (biological DMARDs, or biologics) on the course and outcomes of a new coronavirus infection. A number of studies have shown that anti-B-cell therapy (rituximab) gave a statistically significant increase in the risk of severe COVID-19 and an increase in mortality.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant changes in managing of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Rituximab-treated patients were more susceptible to severe infection. This required a "switch" to another genetically engineered drug in the patients with high risk of adverse COVID-19.

Is to study a 2, 4, 6-trinitrophenol (2.4,6-TNP) distribution in warm-blooded animals using physical chemical analysis methods after intragastric injection of toxicant. The methods of thin-layer chromatography, spectrophotometry and high-efficient liquid chromatography were used in the study process.
