Manifest infections with fungi of the urinary tract are rare in comparison with bacterial diseases and therefore they are often overseen. When this is concerned a funguria must always be clarified in chronic pyelonephritis. In patients with manifest infections with fungi without pronounced renal insufficiency 5-fluorocytosin is therapeutically very well suited on account of the renal elimination.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and long COVID can present with nonspecific symptoms resembling adrenal insufficiency. This similarity of symptoms means that adrenal insufficiency hidden among nonspecific manifestations of COVID-19 may pass underrecognized. We present the case of a 53-year-old Japanese man who developed isolated adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) deficiency (IAD) and acute adrenal insufficiency after COVID-19, thus mimicking prolonged symptoms of COVID-19.

Host response aimed at eliminating the infecting pathogen, as well as the pathogen itself, can cause tissue injury. Tissue injury leads to the release of a myriad of cellular components including mitochondrial DNA, which the host senses through pattern recognition receptors. How the sensing of tissue injury by the host shapes the anti-pathogen response remains poorly understood.

Introduction And Importance: Cervical cancer is highly correlated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, accounting for approximately 70 % of cases. However, false-negative HPV test results can occur, complicating early detection.
Case Presentation: We introduce a rare case of cervical cancer with lung metastasis followed by vulvar metastasis.
Janus kinase inhibitors in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease: where do we stand and what may be the future?

Objective: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is rare, but it is one of the most frequent extra-articular manifestations and a relevant cause of morbidity and mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Over the past few years, Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) have been reported to have promising efficacy in the treatment of active RA, but recent concerns have been raised about their safety profile, namely malignancy and cardiovascular disease, limiting their use to certain patient categories.
Methods: The objective of this narrative review is to summarize the current evidence of the efficacy and safety of JAKis in RA-ILD management, investigating a possible emerging role for this drug class in such subset of patients.
