This study found that mycophenolate mofetil is effective for both induction and maintenance therapy in children with severe lupus nephritis, significantly improving proteinuria and antibody levels, without renal flares during maintenance.

In this study, a UK expert panel discussed strategies for managing common side effects of vismodegib, a hedgehog pathway inhibitor used for advanced basal cell carcinoma, concluding that adverse events like taste disturbances and muscle cramps can be effectively managed to optimize treatment duration.

This study identifies five compounds, including gemcitabine and methylene blue, that inhibit SADS-CoV and suggests their potential for developing antiviral drugs against future outbreaks.

In this study, combining deferasirox with sorafenib significantly reduced liver fibrosis and preneoplastic lesions in rats while also lessening adverse effects compared to sorafenib alone.

In this study, safusidenib erbumine was evaluated for its efficacy and safety in patients with untreated IDH1-mutated WHO grade 2 gliomas, achieving a 44.4% objective response rate and 87.9% 24-month event-free probability, but with some mild to moderate adverse effects.

The study reported that vismodegib showed significant effectiveness in treating basal cell carcinoma, particularly in patients with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome or locally advanced BCC, but also highlighted substantial side effects, requiring careful management to prevent treatment resistance and maintain remission.

This study found that low-dose methotrexate significantly reduced the steroid requirement in subjects with corticosteroid-requiring asthma without altering their clinical status or causing significant complications.

This review concluded that corticosteroids improve muscle strength and function in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy over short-term periods, but evidence on prolonging walking ability remains insufficient, and side effects are common.

This study found that suppressing allopregnanolone production in late gestation fetal sheep altered CNS activity and behavioral responses to transient asphyxia, effects mitigated by an analog co-infusion.

This study found that mycophenolate mofetil can enhance skin pigmentation in vitiligo models by activating the WNT signaling pathway and increasing melanin-related gene expression.

Clofazimine may be effective for treating ashy dermatosis.

This study found that combining bromhexine and spironolactone was effective in improving clinical outcomes and reducing viral load or hospitalization duration in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19.

In this study, low concentrations of DMSO were found to decrease androgen receptor expression and inhibit the migration of prostate cancer cells, suggesting potential as an anticancer therapy.

Food deprivation increases MST enzyme in the brain, possibly affecting energy balance.

This review discusses adverse reactions to antihelminthic drugs and highlights that levamisole, a common street cocaine adulterant, can cause serious side effects, including skin necrosis and vasculitis.

This study suggests that a biomaterial-based approach using microneedles and ion solutions to deliver SiO3 2− ions may disrupt inflammatory cycles and improve outcomes in inflammatory dilated cardiomyopathy (iDCM).

This study found that a combination of spermidin, rutine, and zeaxantine effectively reduced staurosporin-induced apoptosis in cultured hair follicle dermal papilla cells, potentially preventing the regression phase in the hair follicle cycle.

This case report highlights the rare occurrence of life-threatening aplastic anemia in a 65-year-old woman treated with temozolomide for glioblastoma multiforme, emphasizing the need for more frequent blood monitoring to detect severe bone marrow suppression early.

This case report describes an autoimmune hepatitis patient who achieved remission with mycophenolate mofetil and corticosteroids after intolerance to azathioprine-based therapy.

This study reported the development of new pyrazole-based MPC inhibitors that effectively inhibit mitochondrial pyruvate transport, showing potential as therapeutic candidates for conditions like metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis without activating PPARγ.

Tavaborole is a safe and effective toenail fungus treatment, with the 5% solution being the best option.

This article discusses the effectiveness of adrenal cortex compounds E and F in treating connective tissue disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the combination of metoprolol and spironolactone in patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure significantly improved cardiac function and reduced inflammation and oxidative stress markers compared to spironolactone alone, with better clinical efficacy and fewer adverse effects.

In this study, researchers found that metformin improved glycaemic control and other metabolic parameters in non-diabetic patients on glucocorticoid treatment, also reducing pneumonia risk and hospital admissions, suggesting a potential advantage for routine use in this population.

This abstract lists keywords related to various medications and therapies, but it does not provide new study results or findings.

This study suggests that the anticonvulsant effects of deoxycorticosterone in young rats may be mediated by its metabolites and interactions with multiple receptors, including mineralocorticoid and progesterone receptors.

This study found that midazolam, unlike clonazepam, increased neurosteroid levels and affected synaptic inhibition and plasticity in rat hippocampal neurons, suggesting unique actions via dual receptor activation.

This case report describes a 61-year-old woman with Sjögren's syndrome who experienced multiple episodes of aseptic meningitis linked to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim use.

This case report highlights a rare instance of minoxidil-induced pleuro-pericardial effusion with tamponade in a patient with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis, which improved following pericardiocentesis and discontinuation of the drug.

This study observed that among Iranian patients with rheumatoid arthritis, methotrexate treatment was discontinued or reduced in nearly half of the cases due to side effects such as nausea, flu-like symptoms, hepatotoxicity, and hair loss, with hepatotoxicity linked to higher doses and longer treatment duration.
