Persisting mixed cryoglobulinemia in Chikungunya infection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an arbovirus, is responsible for a two-stage disabling disease, consisting of an acute febrile polyarthritis for the first 10 days, frequently followed by chronic rheumatisms, sometimes lasting for years. Up to now,

Abstract Cryoglobulinemia (CG) is defined by the presence of serum immunoglobulins that precipitate below 37°C and redissolve upon rewarming. It is classified into three types based on immunoglobulin composition. Type I, a rare form, involves monoclonal IgM or IgG and is linked to lymphoproliferative disorders.

Mixed cryoglobulinemia secondary to visceral Leishmaniasis [PDF]
We describe a case of type II mixed cryoglobulinemia, with monoclonal IgMkappa rheumatoid factor, associated with visceral leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania infantum. Involvement of Leishmania antigen(s) in the formation of cryoprecipitable immune complexes was suggested by the fact that cryoglobulinemic vasculitis subsided after antiparasite therapy ...

Recent Progress in Double Filtration Plasmapheresis
ABSTRACT Double‐filtration plasmapheresis is an advanced extracorporeal blood purification technique that selectively removes pathogenic macromolecules based on molecular weight. Unlike conventional plasma exchange, double‐filtration plasmapheresis uses a two‐step filtration process to retain beneficial plasma components such as albumin, while ...

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

BACKGROUND Reversible cryoprecipitability of proteins is observed as a concomitant feature of immune complex formation. Mixed cryoglobulinemia (MC) is systemic vasculitis, associated with mixed IgM and IgG cryoglobulins (CGs) showing rheumatoid factor ...
