Evaluation of Myocarditis in Patients With Still Disease: Clinical Findings From the Multicenter International AIDA Network Still Disease Registry.

Objective: We aimed to (1) evaluate the cardiac involvement, with a focus on myocarditis, in patients with Still disease included in the multicenter Autoinflammatory Disease Alliance (AIDA) Network Still disease registry; and (2) assess the predictive factors for myocarditis by deriving a clinical risk patient profile for this severe manifestation.

Methods: A multicenter observational study was established, in which consecutive patients with Still disease in the AIDA Network Still disease registry were characterized by cardiac involvement. Cardiac involvement was defined according to the presence of pericarditis, tamponade, myocarditis, and/or aseptic endocarditis.

The Multifaceted Complexity of Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor-Associated Periodic Syndrome (TRAPS): A Case Report Highlighting Atypical Gastrointestinal Manifestations.

Background: Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor-Associated Periodic Syndrome (TRAPS) is an autosomal dominant autoinflammatory disorder stemming from mutations in the TNFRSF1A gene affecting the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR)-1. These mutations lead to dysregulated inflammatory responses, primarily mediated by augmented interleukin (IL)-1β release.

Case Presentation: We present the case of a 29-year-old woman with a history of recurrent febrile episodes, abdominal pain, and joint manifestations, eventually diagnosed with TRAPS following genetic testing revealing a heterozygous R92Q mutation in TNFRSF1A.

Worldwide Heterogeneity of Food Allergy: Focus on Peach Allergy in Southern Italy.

Food allergy (FA) has shown an increasing prevalence in the last decades, becoming a major public health problem. However, data on the prevalence of FA across the world are heterogeneous because they are influenced by several factors. Among IgE-mediated FA, an important role is played by FA related to plant-derived food which can result from the sensitization to a single protein (specific FA) or to homologous proteins present in different foods (cross-reactive FA) including non-specific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs), profilins, and pathogenesis-related class 10 (PR-10).
