Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a severe drug reaction that is triggered several weeks after the start of a new medication. This syndrome presents with a variety of clinical symptoms, specifically a manifestation involving a fever followed by a severe rash. A variety of medications are known to trigger DRESS, with the most common being anticonvulsants and allopurinol. Here, we discuss the case of a medication, apalutamide, that caused DRESS in our patient. Early recognition and abrupt discontinuation of the medication is required for the management of this syndrome and to minimize morbidity and mortality.

ConspectusChiral organosilicon compounds bearing a Si-stereogenic center have attracted increasing attention in various scientific communities and appear to be a topic of high current relevance in modern organic chemistry, given their versatile utility as chiral building blocks, chiral reagents, chiral auxiliaries, and chiral catalysts. Historically, access to these non-natural Si-stereogenic silanes mainly relies on resolution, whereas their asymmetric synthetic methods dramatically lagged compared to their carbon counterparts. Over the past two decades, transition-metal-catalyzed desymmetrization of prochiral organosilanes has emerged as an effective tool for the synthesis of enantioenriched Si-stereogenic silanes.

Tigecycline (Tgc), a third-generation tetracycline is found as the last line of defense against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Recent increased rate of resistance to tgc, a human-restricted agent among animal bacteria poses a significant global health challenge. Overuse of first generation tetracyclines (Tet) and phenicols in animals have been suggested to be associated with Tgc resistance development.

Introduction: . Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions (IADRs) or drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHRs) represent a major health problem because they are unpredictable and can be severe with potential life-long or even lethal consequences. Their pathophysiology is not clear but thought to be immune mediated supported by the significant statistical association of these reactions with specific alleles of the () gene.
