Myocarditis has emerged as an immune-related adverse event of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) cancer therapy associated with significant mortality. To ensure patients continue to safely benefit from life-saving therapy, understanding fundamental immunological phenomena underlying ICI myocarditis is essential. We recently developed the NOD-cMHCI/II-/-.DQ8 mouse model that spontaneously develops lower mortality than observed in previous HLA-DQ8 NOD strains. Our strain was rendered murine MHC...
Guidelines currently provide conflicting recommendations regarding the diagnosis of group A streptococcal (GAS) pharyngitis in adults. Clinical guidelines state that negative rapid antigen detection tests (RADTs) do not require confirmation by a backup method adults, whereas laboratory-based mandate RADT patients all ages. The objective this study was to assess utility reflexive culture following adolescents and adults with suspected GAS pharyngitis.A retrospective analysis 726 patients,...
