Key Clinical Message: We presented a patient, diagnosed with lymphoma-associated CLIPPERS, 11 years after lymphoma treatment. Therefore, CLIPPERS may be paraneoplastic neurological syndrome of lymphoma, which needs to be considered in the follow-up of lymphoma cases.
Abstract: Chronic lymphocytic inflammation with pontine perivascular enhancement responsive to steroids (CLIPPERS) is a rare central nervous system disorder with a recent increase in incidence. There are few reports of lymphoma-associated CLIPPERS, although the relationship between these two diseases and the pathophysiology of CLIPPERS in general need further investigation. Here, we present a patient with a history of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) more than 10 years before the onset of CLIPPERS, in contrast to the majority of previously reported lymphoma-associated cases, and discuss the possibility that CLIPPERS is the paraneoplastic neurological syndrome of HL. This highlights the need to consider CLIPPERS as a differential diagnosis during follow-up of patients with a history of lymphoma.

Background: Stroke remains a leading cause of mortality and disability among adults. Given the restricted therapeutic window for intravascular interventions and neuroprotection during the acute phase, there has been a growing focus on tissue repair and functional recovery in the subacute and chronic phases after stroke. The pro-inflammatory microglial polarization occurs in subacute and chronic phases after stroke and may represent therapeutic targets for stroke recovery.

Skews in the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) increasingly demonstrate prognostic capability in a range of acute and chronic mental health conditions. There has been a recent uptick in structural and functional magnetic responance imaging data corroborating the role of NLR and MLR in a cluster of neuropsychiatric disorders that are characterized by cognitive, affective, and psychomotor dysfunction. Moreover, these deficits are mostly evident in setting of acute and chronic disease comorbidity implicating aging and immunosenescent processes in the manifestation of these geriatric syndromes.

Introduction: Bryostatin-1, a potent agonist of the protein kinase C, has been studied for HIV and cancer therapies. In HIV research, it has shown anti-HIV effects during acute infection and reactivation of latent HIV in chronic infection. As effective CD8+ T cell responses are essential for eliminating reactivated virus and achieving a cure, it is important to investigate how bryostatin-1 affects HIV-specific CD8+ T cells.

Introduction: Chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) is defined as the appearance of itchy wheals and/or angioedema for at least 6 weeks. Cigarette smoking is one of the world's most common addictions. It is a cause of serious diseases such as renal cancer or thromboembolic incidents.

Over the past two decades, there has been a continuous improvement in outcome for patients with indolent lymphoma (iNHL) resulting in a gradual accumulation of survivors. While life expectancy in the current era approaches that of the lymphoma-free population, patients continue to experience lifelong complications of the disease and its treatment affecting general health, emotional, psychological and social wellbeing, relationships, employment, finances, and fitness. Contemporary care models while suited to the management of lymphoma are often lacking when it comes to identification and management of these additional needs.
