Transient Pulmonary Infiltrates during Treatment with Anti-Thymocyte Globulin

1999

We report the case of a 54-year-old woman with aplastic anemia, who developed transient pulmonary infiltrates following intravenous infusion of rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG) for 3 days. There was no other explanation than the infusion of ATG for the infiltrates. Rechallenge with ATG induced the recurrence of opacities on the chest radiograph. Although rarely involved with only 4 previous reports, ATG should be included in the list of drugs capable of inducing pulmonary infiltrates.

Impact pronostique de la concentration de 3-hydroxymyristate sur la survie des patients atteints de cirrhose alcoolique ou virale

2019

Etat de la question Le role de l’endotoxemie liee a la translocation bacterienne sur l’aggravation de la cirrhose fait l’objet de nombreuses etudes, mais son impact sur la mortalite au cours de la cirrhose est mal connu. Le but de ce travail etait d’etudier l’impact de la concentration sanguine de 3-hydroxymyristate (3-HM) total (composant specifique des lipopolysaccharides, endotoxine), sur le risque de deces et de complications des malades cirrhotiques. Materiel et methodes Au total, 593 patients atteints de cirrhose alcoolique ou virale, sans carcinome hepatocellulaire ont ete inclus entre 2008 et 2012 dans six centres hospitalo-universitaires francais. Le dosage de 3-HM total, libre et …
