The effects of splenoside on the reactions of delayed-type hypersensitivity and graft versus host were investigated. Even single splenoside injection (50 mg/10 g b.w.) increased graft versus host reaction in newborn mice-hybrids F1. Splenoside influences the delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction in dose-depending manner: the dose of 50 mg/10 g increases the reaction and 100 mg/10 g decreases it.

New ultrathin bronchoscopes (UTBs) enable the inspection and biopsy of small airways, potentially offering diagnostic advantages in sarcoidosis. In this prospective study, patients with suspected sarcoidosis underwent airway inspection with a UTB. Observed airway abnormalities were categorised into six predefined patterns.

Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome and haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) are rare but severe immune-mediated diseases with overlapping clinical manifestations. We present a case of a woman in her late 40s with rheumatoid arthritis who developed DRESS/HLH overlap syndrome after starting hydroxychloroquine and leflunomide therapy. Despite corticosteroid treatment, her condition worsened, necessitating etoposide therapy.

Cardiac Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a power- ful imaging tool with diverse applications in the detection and diagnosis of various cardiac conditions, including inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic processes. Using the radiotracer 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG), cardiac PET enables the identification of cardiac involvement in diseases such as sarcoidosis and severe infections affecting the heart tissue. Additionally, 18F-FDG PET is valuable in the evaluation of cardiac masses, helping to assess their metabolic activity and potential malignancy.

Antibiotics have been well documented to result in several dermatological adverse reactions. Many of these adverse reactions are rashes that are difficult to distinguish. We present a case of a female patient in her 30s with acute generalised exanthematous pustulosis following vancomycin treatment for left breast cellulitis.
