Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated chronic fibro-inflammatory condition, that can involve multiple systems. Immunoglobulin G4-related respiratory disease (IgG4-RRD) is relatively rare, with non-specific clinical symptoms. Hemoptysis is a rare clinical symptom of IgG4-RRD, and cases of massive hemoptysis in adults have not been reported.

Organ fibrosis, a common consequence of chronic tissue injury, presents a significant health challenge. Recent research has revealed the regulatory role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification in fibrosis of various organs, including the lung, liver, kidney, and heart. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the latest findings on the mechanisms and functions of m6A modification in organ fibrosis.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of axial elongation on anterior scleral thickness (AST) in myopia.

Methods: The convenience sampling method was used to select 122 patients without ocular or systemic diseases affecting ametropia in Ya'an People's Hospital between March 2020 and January 2022. According to the diopter and axial length (AL), the patients were divided into an emmetropia group (32 cases), a low-to-moderate myopia group (40 cases), and a high myopia group (40 cases).

Intramuscular fat (IMF) content is a critical indicator of the beef nutritional value and flavor. In this study, we focused on bta-miR-484, a microRNA that is differentially expressed during the adipogenic differentiation of bovine intramuscular adipocytes and is negatively correlated with the IMF content across different cattle breeds. Our findings demonstrate that bta-miR-484 inhibits adipogenic differentiation without altering the fatty acid composition of bovine intramuscular adipocytes.
