Tutorial Introduction

This tutorial with help you learn what makes Twease different and how Twease can help you find what you are looking for, fast.

Twease is a web-based tool to search Medline® abstracts. Twease indexes each word of Medline® and provides features that can transparently expand your search to help find the information you are looking for.

Twease searches are also partially case sensitive. Short terms are case sensitive, while longer terms are not. For instance, TnT is different from TNT (TnT often stands for Troponin T while TNT often stands for trinitrotoluene). For more details on Twease's case sensitivity, see the Case Sensitive Searches tutorial page.

Finally, Twease can automatically discover common abbreviations for search phrases (e.g., "protein kinase C" will discover PKC, PK-C, aPKC, etc.) and rewrite queries to use these abbreviations. This feature is available through the Slider (on the top right) and the Advanced pane.

Disseminated superficial porokeratosis in patients with pemphigus vulgaris treated with steroids. (1980 Mar)
disseminated superficial porokeratosis in patients with pemphigus vulgaris treated with steroids . In two patients with pemphigus vulgaris a rash identical with that seen in disseminated superficial porokeratosis developed on the trunk and extremities during periods in which they were receiving relatively high doses of steroids . Some time after reduction of the daily dose or discontinuance of treatment this rash disappeared . In one patient , however , this rash subsequently recurred twice , both times after reinstitution of treatment because of the reappearance of pemphigus lesions . It is suggested that disseminated superficial porokeratosis should be added to the list of possible skin eruptions developing as the result of the systemic use of corticosteroids at a high dose for a prolonged period of time , although the mechanism of its appearance in these cases is not yet clear .

Dexamethasone cyclophosphamide pulse therapy in pemphigus. (1990 Aug)
dexamethasone cyclophosphamide pulse therapy in pemphigus . fifty patients with pemphigus ( 45 pemphigus vulgaris , 5 pemphigus foliaceus ) were treated with dexamethasone cyclophosphamide pulse therapy . The pulse consisted of 136 mg dexamethasone dissolved in 5 dextrose given in a drip over a period of 1 2 hours on 3 consecutive days . In addition , 500 mg cyclophosphamide was added in the drip on the first day . Such pulses were given at monthly intervals . In between the pulses patients were given 50 mg cyclophosphamide orally each day . The results were encouraging , the chief advantage being freedom from side effects of corticosteroid therapy . The lesions healed in 3 4 days and the patients were able to resume their work within one week . further scope of such therapy in pemphigus is discussed .

Treatment of resistant pemphigus vulgaris with an anti CD20 monoclonal antibody ( rituximab ). (2003 Jun)
treatment of resistant pemphigus vulgaris with an anti CD20 monoclonal antibody ( rituximab ) . We describe a 54 year old man with resistant pemphigus vulgaris . standard therapies had afforded inadequate control and have been associated with considerable side effects .

Intermittent cyclophosphamide in pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid. (1974 Nov)
intermittent cyclophosphamide in pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid . cyclophosphamide , given in widely spaced doses , was used in the treatment of a patient with pemphigus vulgaris and a patient with bullous pemphigoid . To our knowledge , this form of therapy has not previously been reported in these two diseases . The distinct advantages of the larger intermittent dose method of cyclophosphamide therapy over the more conventional daily dose regimen are discussed .

A case of follicular lymphoma complicated with lethal pemphigus paraneoplastic pemphigus ( PNP ) is a rare autoimmune bullous disease … (2006 Nov)
A case of follicular lymphoma complicated with lethal pemphigus paraneoplastic pemphigus ( PNP ) is a rare autoimmune bullous disease associated with neoplasm , which is clinically characterized by mucocutaneous lesions resembling pemphigus vulgaris or erythema multiforme . A case presented with PNP refractory to chemotherapy including rituximab , predonisolone and cyclophosphamide ( rchop regimen ) . A 36 year old man , who had been diagnosed as extended follicular lymphoma , presented with a polymorphous skin eruption of the trunk , sclera conjunctivitis , and severe mucosal erosions of the lips and oral cavity . He was diagnosed as pemphigus pathologically by a biopsy of the oral mucosa . however , 3 courses of rituximab and CHOP therapy , which exert a partial response with lymphoma lesions , did not prove effective for oral stomatitis due to pemphigus . He received corticosteroid therapy ( prednisolone 40 mg / day ) and went into a state of temporally remission regarding pemphigus . however , the mucosal lesions were again exacerbated despite control of the lymphoma status after chemotherapy . Oral stomatitis extended to the upper respiratory system through the larynx and resulted in bronchiolitis obliterance clinically presented likely as severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD ) . because it is known that PNP refractory to long term steroid and cytoreductive therapy has a progressive character and poor prognosis , supportive care would be warranted for these patients .

Pemphigus vulgaris in childhood : clinical features , treatment , and prognosis. (1985 May)
pemphigus vulgaris in childhood : clinical features , treatment , and prognosis . there are 31 reports in the literature of the clinical and immunopathologic features of pemphigus vulgaris in children . bullous lesions often occur initially in the oral cavity , later spreading to the skin . The diagnosis can be established by means of histologic and immunopathologic criteria . Most patients respond to high doses of corticosteroids . In some instances , cytostatic drugs must be added to the treatment regimen . Two children reported in literature died in the first year of their disease , one child died 3 1 / 2 years after onset of the disease . Only four had a remission sufficient to discontinue therapy .
