A rare entity of reactive arthritis-immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome in an immunocompromised patient
1Infectious Diseases Institute College of Health Sciences, Makerere University Kampala Uganda.
Clinical Case Reports
|August 21, 2019
Abstract:
There is increasing association of reactive arthritis (ReA) with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). ReA-immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) on the contrary is such a rare occurrence that it has only been documented twice. This is the index documented case of ReA-IRIS in sub-Saharan Africa.

Inflammatory Response
16.1K
An inflammatory response is a localized, nonspecific immune reaction that occurs when a tissue is injured. It is characterized by redness, swelling, heat, and pain, which are commonly called the cardinal signs and symptoms of inflammation. Inflammation can sometimes result in a loss of function.
Inflammation can be triggered by various stimuli, such as impact, abrasion, chemical irritation, infections, and extreme hot or cold temperatures. These can damage cells and connective tissue fibers,...

Inflammatory Response II: Inflammatory Exudate and Tissue Repair
7.5K
The immune system's inflammatory response destroys the invading pathogen, permitting the tissue to heal. The changes during the cellular and vascular stages allow exudate formation at the site of inflammation. The inflammatory exudate released from the wound has high protein content and a specific gravity above 1.020.
The typical wound exudate is odorless, transparent, straw-colored, thin, and watery. Exudate, however, can differ depending on the state of wound healing. Likewise, the...

Reactivity of Enols
4.0K
Enols are a class of compounds where a hydroxyl group is attached to a carbon–carbon double bond, which implies that it is a vinyl alcohol. A carbonyl compound with an α hydrogen undergoes keto–enol tautomerism and remains in equilibrium with its tautomer, the enol form. Usually, the keto tautomer is present in a higher concentration than the enol tautomer due to the higher bond energy of C=O compared to C=C. Moreover, the direction of the keto–enol equilibrium is...
