Arterial hypertension (AH) is one of the most common disorders affecting the human population. The diet of patients with AH can influence the course of the disease and prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in nutrition in hospitalised and non-hospitalised hypertensive patients, compared to control groups of non-hypertensive patients from the same medical centres.

Background/objectives: Cow's milk allergy is one of the most common food allergies in children, and its pathomechanism is still under investigation. Recently, an increasing number of studies have linked food allergy to intestinal barrier dysfunction. The present study aimed to investigate changes in the intestinal microenvironment during the development of -lactoglobulin (-lg) allergy under conditions of early intestinal dysfunction.

The progression of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)requires the assessment of nutritional disturbances at each stage of the disease. The purpose of this study was to assess the nutritional status in various ages of boys with DMD using screening and in-depth evaluation methods. Body composition by Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), basal metabolic rate (BMR) by indirect calorimetry, a questionnaire of nutritional status-Pediatric Nutrition Screening Tool (PNST)-and laboratory parameters were performed.

Article Synopsis
  • Treatment-free remission (TFR) is achievable in about 50% of CML patients on tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but the mechanisms for maintaining TFR are not well understood.
  • This study analyzed immune markers in 63 CML patients who had stopped imatinib, finding that an increase in CD8PD-1 cells correlates with a higher chance of losing TFR.
  • Results indicate that the level of CD8PD-1 cells could help predict early molecular recurrence, particularly highlighting differences between patients with different e13a2 and e14a2 transcripts.

Background: Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth disorder that exhibits etiologic genomic imprinting characterized by molecular heterogeneity and phenotypic variability. Associations with localized developmental dysplastic chondromatous lesions and cortical neuronal heterotopias have not previously been described.

Case Presentation: A 33-week gestational age female had an omphalocele and intractable hypoglycemia at birth.
