Polymyositis following varicella and mumps infection in adults: report of two cases
The objective of this study is to describe the clinical features and the treatment strategy of 2 cases of polymyositis developing shortly after chickenpox and mumps, respectively, and to review the existing literature on the topic. The clinical records of the 2 patients suspected to have developed inflammatory myositis following a viral infection were reviewed. Their clinical history, main laboratory findings, and treatment outcome are presented here. Moreover, a literature search was performed in the PubMed and MEDLINE databases to identify reports describing the association between viral infections and IIMs in patients a...

Multidermatomal herpes zoster triggered by psychological stress in an immunocompetent young adult: a rare case report and clinical insights
CONCLUSION: This case underscores the rare occurrence of multidermatomal HZ in an immunocompetent young adult triggered by psychological stress. The atypical presentation and potential role of stress in viral reactivation emphasize the complex interaction between the nervous and immune systems. Integrated clinical management, stress reduction strategies, and antiviral therapy were effective in resolving the condition. Further research is warranted to elucidate the mechanisms underlying stress-induced viral reactivation and its clinical implications.PMID:38098591 | PMC:PMC10718367 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000001409 (Source: Annals of Medicine)
