Cryptococcid Sweet Syndrome in the Setting of Hydralazine-Induced ANCA Vasculitis: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, also known as Sweet syndrome, is an inflammatory skin condition characterized by the rapid onset of painful, erythematous plaques or nodules with neutrophilic infiltrate on histology. Rarely, acellular bodies surrounded by vacuolated spaces have been noted within the neutrophilic infiltrate, mimicking ...

Hydralazine Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Murine Myocardial Dysfunction by Inhibition of Semicarbazide-Sensitive Amine Oxidase [PDF]
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD) is a fatal complication with limited therapeutic options. Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) contributes to oxidative stress and leukocyte recruitment, yet its role in SIMD remains unexplored.

PharmVar GeneFocus: NAT2-Genetic Variation and Updated Nomenclature. [PDF]
The Pharmacogene Variation Consortium (PharmVar) provides nomenclature for the highly polymorphic human N‐acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) gene. NAT2 metabolizes several clinically used drugs including isoniazid, hydralazine, amifampridine, procainamide, and sulfonamides such as dapsone, and also some highly carcinogenic arylamines.

Haptenization as the missing link between vasculitis and myeloperoxidase [PDF]
A wide variety of medications can induce adverse immune events and autoimmune responses such as vasculitis. Mechanistically, small molecule drugs known as haptens bind and modify endogenous proteins, triggering such immune reactions. In this issue of the

Isosorbide dinitrate, with or without hydralazine, does not reduce wave reflections, left ventricular hypertrophy, or myocardial fibrosis in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Background-Wave reflections, which are increased in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, impair diastolic function and promote pathologic myocardial remodeling.
