چکیده
checkpoint inhibitor ipilimumab [3–7]. These cases cannot be diagnosed as sarcoidosis as these are immune reactions related to immune regulation after chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy. Additionally, granulomatous reactions are not limited to the lung. As suggested by Berthod et al. [7], these reactions are immunerelated adverse events. Perhaps, these reactions may be predictive for checkpoints inhibitors. At this point, appropriate terminology should be post-chemotherapy granulomatous reaction for cases treated with chemotherapy and post-immunotherapy granulomatous reaction in cases treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors or other immune therapies. We will see more similar cases in the near future due to the widespread use of checkpoint inhibitors. The correct terminology must be used by oncologists to avoid confusion for doctors dealing with sarcoidosis due to this chaotic terminology.

A Review on Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Immunosuppressant Drugs
Immunosuppressants require therapeutic drug monitoring because of their narrow therapeutic index and significant inter-individual variability in blood concentrations. This variability can be because of factors like drug-nutrient interactions, drug-disease interactions, renal-insufficiency, inflammation and infection, gender, age, polymorphism and liver mass. Drug monitoring is widely practiced ...
متن کاملSpinal and supraspinal analgesic effects of Nimodipine : The role of Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal(HPA) axis .
Nimodipine, an L-type calcium channel blocker, can induce analgesia. However, it is not clear that this analgesic effect is at the level of spinal or supraspinal pain pathway. In addition, it has been reported that the analgesic effect of nifedipine, another L-type calcium channel blocker is related to the HPA axis, but there is no report indicating the role of this axis in the analgesic eff...
