Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is an adverse reaction to medications such as sulfonamide-containing antibiotics, anticonvulsants, vancomycin, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It typically presents with a characteristic rash, eosinophilia, and visceral organ failure. Patients who do not present with characteristic features of DRESS are at risk for delayed diagnosis and treatment. Early diagnosis of DRESS is imperative in preventing unfavorable outcomes such as multi-organ involvement and death. This case report presents the case of a patient who was diagnosed with DRESS but did not display a classic presentation.

Background And Objectives: This systematic review aims to synthesize the current literature on the association between chemotherapy (CTX) and chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) with functional and structural brain alterations in patients with noncentral nervous system cancers.
Methods: A comprehensive search of the PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Embase databases was conducted, and results were reported following preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analyses guidelines. Data on study design, comparison cohort characteristics, patient demographics, cancer type, CTX agents, neuroimaging methods, structural and functional connectivity (FC) changes, and cognitive/psychological assessments in adult patients were extracted and reported.

Pityriasis rosea (PR) is an acute exanthematous disease with an uncertain physiopathology, increasingly recognized as potentially drug induced. This study aims to investigate medication triggers associated with PR by analyzing cases reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. A retrospective review of 343 PR cases reported in the FAERS database from January 1, 1998, to March 31, 2024, was conducted.

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by pustules that rapidly progress into ulcers that commonly affect the lower limbs. Recently, successful treatment of PG has been reported with anti-IL 17 treatments. However, there have also been several reports of "paradoxical" induction of new PG lesions after use of IL-17 inhibitors.

Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a global animal pathogen. Traditional identification methods are time-consuming necessitating a more efficient approach. This study validated and enhanced the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique by integration it with a lateral flow dipstick (LFD) assay for the detection of S.

The National Cancer Institute's Clinical Proteomics Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) was established to address the need for improved design, standardization, and validation of proteomics assays to enable better translation of biomarkers from the analytical lab to the clinic. Here, we applied CPTAC guidelines to characterize quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) assays in a new multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) proteomics panel. The panel of 50 proteins was developed in response to a previous study that identified a proteomic profile of altered translational control associated with response to a new cancer drug.
