Early recognition and treatment of SLE can improve outcomes in patients with complex symptoms.

This study highlights that although mogamulizumab is highly effective for treating mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, it frequently causes a variety of rashes as side effects.

This study reports a case of fatal HHV-6 encephalitis and vasculitis in a previously healthy 49-year-old male, highlighting the occurrence of this condition even in individuals without typical risk factors, such as immunocompromised status.

This case report describes a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed both pneumonitis and nephritis, with identical immune complexes found in her lungs and kidneys, suggesting a common pathogenetic mechanism.

This study highlights that hypoalbuminemia, often found in critically ill or elderly hospitalized patients, may increase morbidity, mortality, and hospitalization duration, suggesting specific conditions where oral or parenteral albumin supplementation should be considered.

This article discusses the FDA's decision not to approve 5α-reductase inhibitors for prostate cancer prevention, citing an increase in high-grade tumors but no mortality evidence, and reports no new results.
