ABSTRACT Background Sphingosine‐1‐phosphate receptor modulators (S1PRM) are used to treat relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). Each drug has a different S1PR‐subtype selectivity. They target the G‐protein coupled S1P receptors and exert significant immunomodulatory effects, such as preventing the formation of new CNS lesions and the reactivation of pre ...

Systemic sclerosis in an anaesthetist
AbstractIntroductionSystemic sclerosis is a potentially devastating disease in which the aetiology and pathogenesis has not yet been fully understood. It has been associated with occupational exposure to silica, vinyl chloride, solvents and other chemical agents.Case summaryIn this paper, we present the case of an anaesthetist who developed scleroderma
