Presentation
We report a case of granulomatous orbital inflammation due to high-pressure oil injury to the orbit presenting as an atypical orbital cellulitis. Here we review the presentation and treatment of orbital inflammation from oil. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Fever
A 31-year-old Japanese woman suffered high fever and arthralgia lasting for 2 to 3 days after each menstrual period's start. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Those general signs include: Fever Night sweat Generally feeling unwell 4.1 Laboratory analysis Laboratory medicine uses, amongst others, the following parameters to determine inflammatory processes: Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) C-reactive protein [flexikon.doccheck.com]
Workup
No orbital or systemic involvement was found on clinical examination, imaging, and laboratory workup. The serum IgG4 level was normal (87.1 mg/dL). The patient was free of recurrence at 6-month follow-up. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment
Thus, the PTA score has the potential as an objective criterion to identify patients with peritonsillar inflammation profiting from medical treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Less than 1 % of all melanomas arise in the mucosal surfaces of the oral cavity, with purely in situ lesions being exceedingly rare tumors, but with a favorable prognosis compared with invasive lesions. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Etiology
Regardless of the underlying etiology, tracheitis can, in its most severe form, be life-threatening, thus making its treatment an area of interest. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The involvement of these lesions in the etiology of human diseases and aging was also investigated in the past several decades, suggesting that the oxidatively induced DNA adducts, especially bulky DNA lesions, may serve as biomarkers for exploring the [doi.org]
In infants, group A rotavirus (RV) is the major etiologic agent of viral gastroenteritis and is responsible for 29 to 45% of hospitalizations, depending on the income level of the country (32, 33). [jcm.asm.org]
Epidemiology
An inflammatory component is present also in the microenvironment of tumors that are not epidemiologically related to inflammation. Recent studies have begun to unravel molecular pathways linking inflammation and cancer. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Accumulating epidemiological evidence implicates thrombosis, as well as inflammation, as important factors in the development and causation of cerebral palsy. [dictionary.cambridge.org]
Pathophysiology
Its precise pathophysiology remains uncertain and we currently have limited evidence on which immunosuppressive agents are the most effective in its treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Inflammation is a biological process of central importance for biomedical research and is now believed to be a key underlying factor for the pathophysiology of a wide range of diseases, from “classical” inflammatory conditions (e.g. [olink.com]

Although antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection prevents AIDS-related complications and prolongs life, it does not fully restore health. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
