Bacterial meningitis is a rare but severe disease with a high mortality. The most frequent pathogens in adults are pneumococcus, meningococcus and Listeria. The most important key symptoms are headache, meningism and fever; however, the absence of individual cardinal symptoms does not exclude the diagnosis.

Introduction: Pain at the buccal mucosal graft (BMG) harvest site in the immediate postoperative period is common and delays resumption of oral intake. This study compares the time for resumption of pain-free solid and liquid diets and postoperative pain scores at harvest site following the administration of inferior-alveolar nerve-block plus buccal-nerve block (IANB + BNB) versus placebo. We hypothesize that the intervention could decrease pain and aid in early food intake.

Several clinical studies have shown that COVID-19 increases the systemic concentration of drugs in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. However, it is unclear how COVID-19-mediated bidirectional dysregulation of hepatic and pulmonary cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 affects drug concentrations, especially in the lung tissue, which is most affected by the disease. Herein, physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling was used to demonstrate the differences in systemic and pulmonary concentrations of 4 respiratory infectious disease drugs when CYP3A4 is concurrently downregulated in the liver and upregulated in the lung based on existing clinical data on COVID-19-CYP3A4 interactions at varying severity levels including outpatients, non-intensive care unit (ICU), and ICU patients.
