Introduction Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), typically diagnosed between the age of 15 and 40 and characterized by colonic mucosal inflammation and ulcerations. These mucosal changes lead to bloody diarrhea and in severe cases, fever, anemia, weight loss and

CASE PRESENTATION Case 1 An 8 year-old male started 48 hrs prior to admission with abdominal pain in the right lower quadrant associated with vomiting and fever.

This study is an open label randomized control trial with concealment procedure which is to compare the effect of albumin 5% and ringer lactate towards plasma leakage incidence in adult DHF patient. This clinical trial cannot be done in double blind because it is technically impossible. This study

All patients were subjected to thorough history, clinical examination and laboratory investigations including basic preoperative investigations, lipid profile, thyroid and suprarenal hormonal evaluation. In addition, patients may undergo further assessment for pulmonary functions or gastroesophageal

Background and Significance Clostridium difficile infections are of great concern for hospitals nationwide and C. difficile remains the most common nosocomial infection in North America. The majority of patients with C. difficile infection respond to orally administered metronidazole or vancomycin,

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is an effective treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). For patients transplanted in first remission or with low risk MDS, approximately 60% of patients have achieved long-term disease free survival. Patients with

BACKGROUND: KSHV inflammatory cytokine syndrome (KICS) is a newly recognized syndrome caused by Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). It is characterized by severe inflammatory symptoms including fevers, wasting, cytopenias, hypoalbuminemia, and hyponatremia, associated in some cases with

Background: About 80% of patients with hairy cell leukemia (HCL) have malignant cells that express cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25) (Tac or Interleukin-2 receptor alpha (IL2Ra)). Normal resting B- and T-cells do not express CD25. LMB-2 is an anti-CD25 recombinant immunotoxin containing variable

HIV-related multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) is a lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by lymphadenopathy with angiofollicular hyperplasia and plasma cell infiltration, associated with KSHV/HHV-8. Patients typically have systemic manifestations such as fever associated with

Background: It is estimated that 40-50% of patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) have tumors that express cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25) (Tac or IL2Ra). Normal resting T-cells do not express CD25. LMB-2 is an anti-CD25 recombinant immunotoxin containing variable domains of MAb

Background: It is estimated that 30-50% of patients with CLL have tumors that express cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25) (Tac or IL2R). Normal resting T-cells are not sensitive to LMB-2 due to insufficient CD25 expression. LMB-2 is an anti-CD25 recombinant immunotoxin containing variable domains
