AI Article Synopsis

  • DRESS is a serious condition linked to certain medications, including antiretrovirals, but no cases of bictegravir-induced DRESS have been reported.
  • Bictegravir is a preferred first-line treatment option for HIV patients.
  • It’s crucial to identify DRESS symptoms and complications for effective management of individuals with acute HIV.

Article Abstract

Although drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is associated with antiretrovirals, there are no published reports of bictegravir-induced DRESS. Bictegravir is recommended as first-line treatment for patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Recognition of DRESS, its skin manifestations, and potential complications is vital for appropriate care and management of acute HIV.

Pediatric antibiotic labels are common, and unnecessary antibiotic avoidance is associated with negative personal and public health outcomes; as a result, there is an increasing emphasis on the importance of pediatric antibiotic allergy evaluations. Different testing strategies have been advised, including skin testing and challenge testing with varied doses and duration. Established consensus testing protocols are lacking.

Background: Owing to high sensitivity and ability for absolute quantification, the droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) is widely used for viral and bacterial detection. However, few studies have been conducted on the application of ddPCR to identify the original plant species used in traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese patent medicine.

Purpose: In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using ddPCR to differentiate between Notopterygium incisum and N.

Gemcitabine (GEM) has been extensively applied in treating various solid tumors. Nonetheless, GEM is easily metabolized in vivo by cytidine deaminase (CDA) to inactive 2', 2'-Difluorodeoxyuridine (dFdU) results in a low oral bioavailability, which limit its clinical application. It was found that Cedazuridine (CDZ) could effectively inhibit the deamination of the drug by CDA, and its combination with GEM might affect the oral bioavailability of GEM.

Background: Several chemical studies described the physiological efficacy of 1,4- dihydropyridines (DHPs). DHPs bind to specific sites on the α1 subunit of L-type calcium channels, where they demonstrate a more pronounced inhibition of Ca2+ influx in vascular smooth muscle compared to myocardial tissue. This selective inhibition is the basis for their preferential vasodilatory action on peripheral and coronary arteries, a characteristic that underlies their therapeutic utility in managing hypertension and angina.
