Lin, a 5-year-11-month-boy. He-had a fever 20 days ago with no obvious trigger and reached the highest oral-temperature of- 40°C, he was suspected "infectious mononucleosis", thus intravenous ganciclovir was given and his blood was extracted to check for anti-EBV antibody simultaneously. After 6-days of intravenous ganciclovir, his body temperature still fluctuated at around: 38°C. Anti-EBVVCA-IgM(-), anti-VCA-IgG(+) The physician stopped intravenous ganciclovir and gave a one-week oral antivirus drug regimen and told the parents to come back for the blood routine and blood smear after a week. However, Lin's oral temperature still fluctuated at around 38.5°C after the regimen and complained of weakness, significant headache, and bilateral elbow joints pain. 1. Does changing intravenous to oral antiviral drug mean that this patient is recovering? 2. What would you do if you were the patient's parent?
18 A 7-year-old boy presents to the emergency depart- ment with fever, abdominal pain, and tenderness in the right lower quadrant. A white blood cell count reveals leukocytosis. Suspecting appendicitis, the child is taken to surgery; however, the removed appendix is grossly and histologically normal. The bacterial cause for the boy's symptoms was subse- quently identified as a Gram-negative rod after cold enrichment of fecal cultures. What is the etiology of this infection? (A) Campylobacter jejuni (B) Clostridium difficile (C) Salmonella typhi (D) Vibrio parahaemolyticus (E) Yersinia enterocolitica

Pathology: 47-year-old female with new diagnosis of infiltrating intraductal adenocarcinoma involving the left breast and regional node. Further tests on tumor samples indicated ER (8%), PR (negative), HER2 (negative), Ki-67 (72%), and grade (poorly differentiated). Intrinsic subtype (luminal B, HER2-negative). Radiology: FDG-PET/CT indicated a 5.3 x 2.5 cm mass in the left breast which appeared to extend to the epidermis of the skin; one node in the left axilla was also involved with tumor. No other evidence of distant disease was visualized. Laboratory: CBC, liver, and kidney function tests WNL, alkaline phosphatase and calcium are normal also.
