In this study, we evaluated the biomass yield, physico-chemical characteristics, nutrient composition, and feeding value of oat (Avena sativa) grown without irrigation ensiled with or without supplemental inoculant following different wilting durations. Oat forage at early dough stage (79 days after sowing) were harvested to assess the biomass yield, nutrient contents, and mineral composition. Oats were ensiled with or without the addition of inoculant and different wilting durations (0, 24, and 48 h) in 3 × 2 factorial arrangement.

- A study was conducted to assess the immune response and COVID-19 progression in 110 patients with lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), most of whom were on enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).
- Findings revealed that over half of these patients exhibited abnormalities in their immune system, with lower levels of certain immunoglobulins and issues in lymphocyte counts, indicating a potential greater vulnerability to illnesses like COVID-19.
- Despite various autoimmune markers being identified in some patients, there were no strong clinical symptoms linking these lab findings to illnesses, except for a specific case of Hashimoto thyroiditis in a patient with Gaucher disease.
Objectives: In this study, we aimed to investigate the performance of Eurofever Registry and the Paediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organisation (PRINTO) classification criteria in pediatric patients with familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).
Patients And Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study included a total of 130 pediatric FMF patients (67 males, 63 females; mean age: 12.4±3.
Objectives: Behcet Disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis, first described with a triad of oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers, and uveitis. The authors aimed to share the clinical properties and utilities of three distinct classification criteria for BD in this study.
Methods: This case-control study was conducted in pediatric BD patients, diagnosed between January 2012 and July 2019.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is characterized by defective microbial killing due to mutations affecting subunits of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase complex. Definitive genetic identification of disease subtypes may be delayed or not readily available.
Objective: Sought to investigate the role of intracellular staining of NADPH oxidase enzyme subunits in predicting the respective genetic defects in patients with CGD and carriers.
