To compare the efficacies of valacyclovir (VCV) and acyclovir (ACV) on murine herpetic epithelial keratitis, mice inoculated with herpes simplex virus type 1(HSV-1) strain McKrae were divided into 6 treatment groups: oral VCV 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg, oral ACV 50 mg/kg, ACV eye ointment (EO), ACV eye
Sweet syndrome (acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis) is characterized by fever, neutrophilic leukocytosis, and abrupt appearance of painful erythematous nodules and plaques, particularly on the face, neck, and limbs. In this study, we report a very rare case of Sweet syndrome in which the patient
