Health › Re: Best Ways To Treat Steven Johnson's Syndrome by kaplip(m): 7:59am On May 25, 2025 |
Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) is a rare, serious disorder of the skin and mucous membranes, typically triggered by a reaction to medications or infections. It causes painful red or purplish rashes, blisters, and skin peeling, often affecting the eyes, mouth, and genitals. In severe cases, it can progress to toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), where large areas of skin detach.
**Key Points:** - **Causes**: Commonly linked to medications like allopurinol, anticonvulsants (e.g., lamotrigine, carbamazepine), antibiotics (e.g., sulfonamides), or NSAIDs. Infections like Mycoplasma pneumoniae or herpes viruses can also trigger it. - **Symptoms**: Starts with flu-like symptoms (fever, sore throat), followed by rash, blisters, and mucosal involvement (e.g., eye redness, mouth sores). Skin sloughing occurs in severe cases. - **Diagnosis**: Based on clinical symptoms, history of drug exposure, and sometimes skin biopsy showing epidermal necrosis. - **Treatment**: Immediate cessation of the offending drug, hospitalization (often in ICU or burn unit), supportive care (fluids, nutrition), and sometimes corticosteroids or IV immunoglobulin. Wound care is critical. - **Prognosis**: Mortality ranges from 5-10% for SJS to 30-50% for TEN. Survivors may face complications like vision loss or chronic skin issues. - **Risk Factors**: Genetic predisposition (e.g., HLA-B*1502 gene in some populations), HIV, or autoimmune conditions increase risk.
If you suspect SJS, seek emergency medical care immediately, as it’s life-threatening. For specific cases or triggers, please provide more details, and I can tailor the response further.

As of 15:00, the situation on the eastern border of the Republic of Armenia has not changed significantly. There are local battles with the use of artillery, armored vehicles and firearms of different calibers. The enemy suffers heavy losses of armored vehicles and manpower. The information about the victims and the wounded from the Armenian side is being clarified. At this moment it is known for sure about 4 wounded. https://www.mil.am/en/news/10114 |

Heavy gunfire was heard near the presidential palace in Guinea's capital Conakry on Sunday morning, while convoys of armoured vehicles and trucks carrying soldiers patrolled the streets, a Reuters witness said and videos shared on social media showed.
A military source said the only bridge connecting the mainland to the Kaloum neighbourhood, which houses most of the ministries and the presidential palace, had been sealed off and many soldiers, some heavily armed, were posted around the palace.
A senior government official said President Alpha Conde was unharmed but gave no further details. A witness told Reuters he saw a civilian with gunshot wounds.
Footage shared on social media, which Reuters was not immediately able to verify, showed heavy gunfire ringing out over the city, and vehicles full of soldiers approaching the central bank, close to the palace.
A Reuters reporter saw two convoys of armoured vehicles and pick-up trucks heading towards Conakry Autonomous Port, also near the palace. The convoy was accompanied by a white vehicle that appeared to be an ambulance.
Guinea has witnessed sustained economic growth during Conde's decade in power thanks to its bauxite, iron ore, gold and diamond wealth, but few of its citizens have seen the benefits.
In October the 83-year-old won a third term in office in an election marked by violent protests in which dozens of people were killed.

Whatever was the mission of the US was. Which ever way either to reduce the Taliban or to fight a war, the outcome is still terrible, whether the US wins or loss, it doesn't matter now does it? Taliban is in control of the country now and loaded with equipment from the US. |

Roan77: See how ignorant you are, yet you always claim to know things. Russian/Soviet union were the first to invade Afghanistan, to fight the Taliban, but they lost woefully, before American/NATO came, and 20 years later, they still lost, and pulling out of the country. Asymmetric warfare is the hardest war any country would wish to have. It was first the Ottoman empire. |

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia Russia and Ethiopia on Monday signed a military cooperation agreement, according to media reports. The agreement came at the conclusion of three days of deliberations held as part of the military technical cooperation forum in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa. Finance Division State Minister of the Ethiopian National Defense Force Martha Liwij said the agreements will have a “paramount significance” in transforming the longstanding relations between the two nations to a higher level, according to the local broadcaster FANA. "The agreement will be focusing on transforming capacity of the [Ethiopian] national defense force in knowledge, skill and technology spheres," it said. Russia has long been one of Ethiopia's leading suppliers of military hardware. https://www.aa.com.tr/en/africa/russia-ethiopia-ink-military-cooperation-agreement/2302337# |

DubaiLandLord: Police allegedly torture 33-year old breadwinner to death in Bauchi
A 33-year old breadwinner has allegedly been tortured to death by a combined team of policemen attached to the Yelwa Division and a vigilante group in Bauchi State.
Saturday PUNCH learnt that the deceased, Dauda Danladi, was arrested by the team of security agents in front of his shop located in Yelwa Kagadama, a suburb of Bauchi metropolis around 9pm on Thursday.
He was said to have been taken to the Yelwa Division, where he was allegedly tortured to death.
When our correspondent visited the house around 6pm on Friday, family members and several sympathisers were seen weeping.
An eyewitness, Liatu Nuhu, who sells groundnut milk and rice gruel close to the shop of the deceased said the police and the vigilante arrived in Gestapo style and started arresting people indiscriminately.
Nuhu said, “I was doing my business when, suddenly, the police and some vigilantes came, more than 10 of them, and started arresting people. The Divisional Police Officer got out of the vehicle and directed them, ‘Arrest him! Arrest him!’
“And that was how they arrested the boys playing snooker, others who were chatting and the deceased who was standing in front of his shop. We kept telling them not to arrest him, we told them that he was our neighbour here and we knew him to be someone of good character. We asked why they would arrest him, but they still took him away.”
Nuhu added, “Today (Friday) in the morning, we went to the police station around 7am, they told us to stay at a far distance and wait for the DPO to come to the office. So, I decided to go to my place of work.
“By 10.15am, I returned, only for me to see the deceased’s wife crying profusely. When I asked her what happened, she told me that her husband was dead.”
When contacted, the Commissioner of Police, Bauchi State, Sylvester Alabi, told journalists on the phone that five people were arrested with a revolver pistol in the area.
He said two of them were later released because they were found innocent while the other two were still being held at the Police station.
“The deceased was not even part of them, he was about 200 metres ahead. He was gasping for breath in his business place and the police assisted him to the hospital and then, he died.
“If police had not assisted him to the hospital, people would have said they are bad people. The police now assisted, now na wahala (sic).”
“I have told the PPRO to go to the media and tell people the correct version of the story,” he stated.
As of the time of filing this report, 7.30pm, the PPRO has yet to make any official statement.
