Patients with antisynthetase antibody syndrome require long-term oral corticosteroids combined with immunosuppressants, which are prone to immune abnormalities and secondary infections. Varicellazoster virus is a neurotropic virus that has long been latent in the posterior root of the spinal cord or the trigeminal ganglion.

Placenta Accreta Spectrum (PAS) is a broad term that includes placenta accreta, placenta increta, and placenta percreta.
