Risk factors for wound infection in surgery for spinal metastasis [PDF]
Wound infection rates are generally higher in patients undergoing surgery for spinal metastasis. Risk factors of wound infection in these patients are poorly understood.

Patch granuloma annulare is a rare type of granuloma annulare. Histopathologically, patch granuloma annulare shows interstitial infiltration of histiocytes. In our case, immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated CD68‐negative, CD163‐positive M2 macrophages infiltration in an interstitial pattern.

Use of low-dose oral theophylline as an adjunct to inhaled corticosteroids in preventing exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with high morbidity, mortality, and health-care costs. An incomplete response to the anti-inflammatory effects of inhaled corticosteroids is present in COPD.

ABSTRACT Background Type 2 inflammation dominates eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (eCRS) and adult onset asthma. IL‐4, ‐5, and ‐13 are prominent disease mediators. Disease control can be achieved with biologic therapies. However, despite some patients entering remission, others experience poor control. Aim We aimed to describe eCRS patients treated

Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC, carmellose sodium) is an anionic water‐soluble polymer derived from native cellulose that is used as an excipient. Here, we report a case of urticaria caused by the CMC in lidocaine jelly and dimethicone drops. Abstract Excipient allergies are rare and difficult to diagnose.

Comparison of Transcriptional Activation by Corticosteroids of Human MR (Ile-180) and Human MR Haplotype (Ile180Val) [PDF]
While the classical function of human mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is to regulate sodium and potassium homeostasis through aldosterone activation of the kidney MR, the MR also is highly expressed in the brain, where the MR is activated by cortisol in response to stress. Here, we report the half-maximal response (EC50) and fold-activation by cortisol,

Identification of structural features in chemicals associated with cancer drug response: A systematic data-driven analysis [PDF]
Motivation: Analysis of relationships of drug structure to biological response is key to understanding off-target and unexpected drug effects, and for developing hypotheses on how to tailor drug thera-pies. New methods are required for integrated analyses of a large number of chemical features of drugs against the corresponding genome-wide responses of
