Beta lactam antibiotics are associated with a wide spectrum of immediate and delayed drug hypersensitivity reactions. The latency period to symptoms and clinical presentation aids in the causality assessment. Risk stratification based on diagnosis and timing then allows for appropriate management and evaluation. Skin prick testing, intradermal testing and oral challenge are well established for evaluation ...

Magic Johnson ’s HIV Disclosure Helped to Shatter Stigmas. But 30 Years Later, Disparities in Treatment Remain
For many watching Earvin “Magic” Johnson on television on Nov. 7, 1991, his words were tantamount to an announcement of his own death sentence. In a press conference hastily convened by Johnson and the Los Angeles Lakers after a local media outlet got wind of the story, the 32-year-old NBA superstar revealed he was HIV positive.
Dr. Michael Mellman, then the Lakers team physician, remembers a last-minute conversation with Johnson, just before they walked out to face a sea of cameras: “He looked at me and said, I just want to get this straight, I have HIV, not AIDS, right?”

M177 polyparasitism in iga deficiency: echinococcus, strongyloides and toxocara as three parasites in one host
Concomitant infections with several parasites are called polyparasitism. Gastrointestinal infections occur with an increased frequency in patients with IgA deficiency and are commonly related to G lamblia. It is postulated that the lack of secretory IgA in these patients allows for attachment and proliferation of the organism on the intestinal epithelium. Polyparasitism has been reported in patients with HIV/AIDS. This is the first case report of polyparasitism in a patient with primary immunodeficiency.
