Preoperative management of subconjunctival/sub-Tenon's glaucoma surgery with special consideration of the gel implant (XEN ®).
CONCLUSION: The preoperative administration of artificial tear substitutes, corticosteroids and the fundamental change to preservative-free eye drops can support the normalization of a chronic inflammatory altered conjunctiva and thus positively influence the wound healing process after surgery.

Sports Doctors May Accidentally Prescribe Banned Steroids
(Reuters Health)—Sports physicians routinely prescribe corticosteroids to athletes for conditions, such as inflammation, asthma and allergies, but not all of them know which forms of these drugs are banned under anti-doping rules, a study suggests. The survey of 603 physicians from 30 countries found four in five prescribe oral corticosteroids to athletes, one of the... [Read More]

Atopic Dermatitis: Update on Pathogenesis and Therapy.
Abstract Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common inflammatory skin condition in pediatric patients. AD has long been associated with comorbidities including food allergies, asthma, and allergic rhinitis, but recent literature has expanded this list to include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and depression. AD has tremendous impact on quality of life for both affected children and their families. Improved understanding of AD pathogenesis, particularly regarding skin barrier dysfunction, the role of the cutaneous microbiome, and immune dysregulation, has spawned exciting new therapeutic directions. Althou...

Vertebral, pelvic, and hip fracture risk in adults with severe atopic dermatitis
The immediate priority for clinicians managing patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) is treating the disease, particularly the constant itch and sleep disturbance, with its consequential disruption of both home and work life and association with low mood, poorer concentration, and productivity. However, long-term sequelae are important to consider and include those directly related to the atopic march (asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, and food allergies), the consequences of having a chronic disease, and potential side effects of therapy, particularly topical corticosteroids.

Efficacy of an elimination diet in a patient with eosinophilic gastroenteritis : a pediatric case with multiple food allergies.
This report highlights the utility of elimination diets in improving EGE symptoms and the subsequent reintroduction of offending foods in identifying causative foods. Furthermore,EGE onset should be considered when introducing potentially allergic food in the management of food allergy. J. Med. Invest. 66 : 201-204, February, 2019.

A 45-Year-Old Man With Progressive Dyspnea, Chest Pain, and Hypereosinophilia.
Abstract CASE PRESENTATION: A previously healthy 45-year-old man was admitted to our ED with a 3-week history of progressive dyspnea on exertion. He also presented with orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea, and mild ankle swelling, but he showed no fever, wheezing, coughing, or sputum production. Outpatient laboratory studies, performed 1 week after symptom onset, revealed hypereosinophilia (4.100/μL). He was diagnosed with asthma and prescribed inhaled corticosteroids and low-dose prednisone, but he showed no symptomatic improvement. Over the last 48 h, he experienced rapid progression of dyspnea that made i...

Nutritional Heterogeneity Among Aspergillus fumigatus Strains Has Consequences for Virulence in a Strain- and Host-Dependent Manner
We examined the relationship between the metabolic processes of carbon catabolite repression (CCR), nitrogen catabolite repression (NCR) and virulence in a variety of A. fumigatus clinical isolates. A considerable amount of heterogeneity with respect to the degree of CCR and NCR was observed and a positive correlation between NCR and virulence in a neutropenic mouse model of pulmonary aspergillosis (PA) was found. Isolate Afs35 was selected for further analysis and compared to the reference strain A1163, with both strains presenting the same degree of virulence in a neutropenic mouse model of PA. Afs35 metabolome analysis ...

The Study of Dried Ginger and Linggan Wuwei Jiangxin Decoction Treatment of Cold Asthma Rats Using GC –MS Based Metabolomics
Conclusion In this study, serum and urine metabolites identified by GC–MS and general pharmacodynamic evaluation (morphological observation, histopathology, inflammatory factors, and visceral indices) were used to compare the effects of GJ and LGWWJX decoctions on cold asthma. Significant metabolic abnormalities were observed for 37 metabolites (15 in serum, 22 in urine) in rats with cold asthma. These altered metabolites might be potential biomarkers or therapeutic targets during development of cold asthma. Furthermore, pathway analysis demonstrated that pathways associated with energy metabolism and oxidative str...

Qingpeng Ointment Ameliorates Inflammatory Responses and Dysregulation of Itch-Related Molecules for Its Antipruritic Effects in Experimental Allergic Contact Dermatitis
Conclusion Via a HPLC system and a BATMAN-TCM platform, for the first time we performed detailed HPLC fingerprint analysis and network pharmacology studies of QP ointment. By in-depth animal and molecular analysis, we identified a number of chronic dermatitis-associated Th1/2 cytokines, itch mediators, and cellular signaling pathways in the skin, DRG and serum for QP to treat the inflammation and chronic itch associated with ACD. Our data clearly suggested, upon stimulation, cytokines and itch-related mediators are released from the skin and neuronal tissues, and QP could effectively work on both the skin and sensory neur...

Maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes associated with long ‐term use of corticosteroids during pregnancy
AbstractKey content Antenatal corticosteroid use is strongly associated with reduced  neonatal mortality and morbidity arising from preterm delivery. Betamethasone and dexamethasone are the corticosteroids of choice to enhance fetal lung maturation in this situation. Maternal medical conditions such as autoimmune diseases, asthma and allergies may necessitate long‐term use of corticosteroids during pregnancy. The maternal, fetal and neonatal effects in pregnant women using chronic corticosteroids are reviewed. The question as to whether the standard course of antenatal corticosteroids is necessary if preterm de...
