Article Abstract

In a previous study, we reported that nilotinib, a BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor, possesses moderate antimalarial activity against PfK1 and PfFCR3. As a part of our efforts to develop novel antimalarial agents, a series of novel triazine analogs was identified as potent antimalarial agents via structure modification of nilotinib. Compound 15a showed strong antimalarial activities against PfK1 and PfFCR3 with IC values of 0.28 and 0.29 µM, respectively.

A rare pediatric case of immune thrombocytopenia attributed to brucellosis.

Turk J Pediatr

Department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, Batman Training and Research Hospital, Batman, Türkiye.

Background: Brucellosis is a zoonotic infection transmitted to humans by ingestion of contaminated unpasteurized dairy products or via direct or indirect contact with infected animals. It is characterized by nonspecific symptoms like fever and joint pain, and laboratory findings including anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, or rarely pancytopenia. Here we report a case of brucellosis with thrombocytopenia that did not improve despite anti-brucella treatment and required intravenous immunoglobulin treatment.

Rationale: Japanese spotted fever (JSF) is a rare tick-borne disease caused by Rickettsia japonica. Atypical manifestations and a lack of standardized diagnostic assays often result in delayed diagnosis and treatment, potentially leading to life-threatening complications.

Patient Concerns: A 57-year-old immunocompetent female from a region with no previously reported JSF cases presented with acute-onset high-grade fever (39.
