Drugs are a rare cause of pancreatitis. Whereas some drugs are well known to induce an attack of pancreatitis, some people may be more prone to develop pancreatitis because of personal susceptibility. We describe a recurrent case of acute pancreatitis after administration of several drugs in a patient with intestinal inflammatory bowel disease that needed to be treated with subsequent antiinfla...

Background Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and its severe variant, toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), are acute inflammatory vesiculobullous reactions of the skin and mucous membranes of, for example, the ocular surface, oral cavity, and genitals. They are rare but often associated with inciting drugs. Cold medicines including non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and multi-ingredient col...

background & aim: solanum anomalum thonn. ex schumach. (family solanaceae) is a shrub growing up to 2 metres tall. the edible fruits are gathered from the wild and consumed locally and the leaves are used locally in the treatment of various diseases. evaluation of anti-inflammatory activity of leaf extract of solanum anomalum was carried out to ascertain its uses in traditional medicine. experi...

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown pathogenesis. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory and biologic drugs are used in its treatment. A 38 year old male patient diagnosed with AS was admitted to the rheumatology outpatient clinic due swelling both upper eyelids around eyes recurring for 1 month. He at 5th month etanercept With current clinic, etanercept-induced angi...

The subjects of the study were 112 patients with rheumatic polymyalgia (RPM) and giant-cell arteritis (GSA). The study shows that RPM and GSA are complicated by cerebral flow disturbances and myocardial infarction. Therapy with prednisolone and non-steroid antiinflammatory drugs reduces the risk of these complications and lethal outcome in patients with RPM and GSA.

Gastric ulcer disease remains widespread; a stressful lifestyle and non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) make significant contributions to this pathological situation (Glavin et al., 1991; Hawkey, 2000; Laine et al., 2008). Despite indubitable advances in elucidation of the pathogenesis of gastric ulceration, there are gaps in our understanding of ulcerogenesis, particularly the role o...

BACKGROUND Previous studies indicated a systemic deregulation of the pro-/antiinflammatory balance in subjects after 6 months of a first psychotic episode. This disruption was reexamined 12 months after diagnosis to identify potential risk/protective factors and associations with symptom severity. METHODS Eighty-five subjects were followed during 12 months and the determination of the same pr...

The synthesis benzimidazolylpyrano [2,3-d] [1,3] thiazolocarbonitriles (5a-j) were achieved by cyclocondensation of arylidene amino-benzo[d]imidazole-2-thiols (3a-j) with mercaptoacetic acid followed by cyclization with 2-(phenylmethylene)malononitrile. Further more, the present study aimed at the evaluation of in vitro antiinflammatory activity and antioxidant activity of synthetic compounds. ...
