Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), is characterized by systemic uncontrolled inflammation resulting from immune dysregulation secondary to various triggers, including genetics, infections, autoimmune diseases, and malignancies. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is an immune dysregulation phenomenon, in which an underlying rheumatological disease is present. We report a rare, interesting case of a middle-aged female, with a systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) flare complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), in which tuberculous meningitis (TBM) was the identified trigger.

Background: Breaking bad news is one of the most difficult tasks for practicing doctors, especially for those working in health care specialties where life-threatening diseases are diagnosed and managed routinely. Our aim was to elicit the knowledge and practices of doctors and identify barriers faced by them in disclosure of bad news across the provinces of Pakistan.
Methods: Cross-sectional, multi-centered study supported by an external grant in 15 Government and Private Hospitals across Pakistan.

Multiple immune components in the complex and heterogeneous tumor-immune microenvironment (TIME) work cooperatively to promote or impede cancer immunotherapy. Synergistically co-managing multiple immune cells with single agents for advanced antitumor immunity remains desirable but challenging. This In Focus article introduces a triple orthogonal linker (T-Linker)-based multimodal targeting chimera (Multi-TAC) platform, enabling the single-agent-mediated tumor-targeted co-engagement of multiple immune cell types within TIME for potentiated immunotherapy.
