The IgE monoclonal gammopathies include malignant plasma cell disorders such as IgE multiple myeloma (MM), as well as the associated premalignant condition IgE monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). We report a case of a 41-ye

However, studies on the specific antibiotic treatments for cystitis are lacking. This study aimed to explore the antibiotic treatments for cystitis using nationwide primary healthc

Background: Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is a precise, tissue-sparing surgical technique that offers superior cure rates compared to traditional surgical excision. However, the degree of difficulty of MMS depends on many variables, and consequently, the number of surgical stages required for each case is quite unpredictable.Objectives: To identify risk factors for complicated MMS, defined as MM
