Most pleural empyema cases are linked to pneumonia, a substantial fraction of patients present with empyema without any association to pneumonia. The occurrence of empyema caused by tuberculosis (TB) is increasing in regions where TB is prevalent. In May 2024, a bibliometric analysis was conducted involving the screening of 7,620 articles sourced from Google Scholar.

- * It involved measuring PCT and NLR levels on days 0, 2, and 4 post-admission, finding that PCT decreased while NLR initially rose before falling by day 4, and SOFA scores remained stable.
- * The research concludes that tracking these biomarkers can improve diagnosis and treatment of sepsis, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes through better understanding of infection severity and timely interventions.
Article Synopsis
- APECED is a serious genetic autoimmune disorder linked to variants in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene, with 16% of evaluated patients lacking known harmful variants, most of whom are of Puerto Rican descent.
- Researchers discovered a deep intronic variant (c.1504-818 G>A) in these patients that causes a cryptic splice site leading to a dysfunctional protein through pseudoexon inclusion.
- They developed an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) that corrected this genetic issue, demonstrating the potential for targeted treatments in APECED patients.
This research proposes a sensor for tracking the motion of a human head via optical tactile sensing. It implements the use of a fibrescope a non-metal alternative to a webcam. Previous works have included robotics grippers to mimic the sensory features of human skin, that used monochrome cameras and depth cameras.
