Case Report: Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome With Double Variant in NLRP12 and SETD1A
The inflammasome is a protein complex involved in the activation of inflammatory responses through the production of proinflammatory cytokines and pyroptosis. NLRP12 is a NOD‐like receptor that regulates inflammation and inflammasome signaling. Mutations in the NLRP12 gene can lead to familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome type 2 (FCAS2), an autosomal

Lyme carditis is a complication occurring in 1%–5% of Lyme disease infections. It can lead to life‐threatening cardiac conduction abnormalities. Treatment with antibiotics may trigger the Jarisch–Herxheimer reaction (JHR), an acute inflammatory response to spirochetal lysis. Here, we present a 32‐year‐old postpartum female with complete heart block and

Although benign, cutaneous pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia (PEH) is oftentimes difficult to distinguish from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). PEH arises from underlying dermal neoplasia, infection, or inflammation. This case report presents the case of a patient with PEH that occurred as a reactive inflammatory response to a foreign body canine hair ...

Vesicular erythema migrans: an atypical and easily misdiagnosed form of Lyme disease [PDF]
Erythema migrans is the initial sign in the majority of patients infected with Borrelia, the genus of spirochetes that causes Lyme disease. Early identification and treatment decrease the risk of progression to later stages of disease. Although a "bull's
