Background: In the context of injectable biologic products approved or in development for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), it is important to capture which treatment attributes matter most to patient and what trade-offs patients are willing to make.
Objectives: The CHOICE-CSU study aimed to quantify patient preferences toward injectable treatment attributes among patients with CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.
Methods: This was a two-phase cross-sectional patient preference study in adult patients with a diagnosis of CSU, inadequately controlled by H1-antihistamines.
Background: Omalizumab (OMA), a recombinant humanized IgG monoclonal anti-IgE antibody, is approved for treatment for chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) refractory to second-generation H-antihistamine (SGAH) therapy. However, currently, there are no validated serum biomarkers to reliably predict response to OMA treatment.
Objective: We explored the real-world clinical utility of using serum biomarkers for predicting response to OMA for CSU patients with disease refractory to high-dose SGAH therapy.
RNA-sequencing has improved the diagnostic yield of individuals with rare diseases. Current analyses predominantly focus on identifying outliers in single genes that can be attributed to cis-acting variants within the gene locus. This approach overlooks causal variants with trans-acting effects on splicing transcriptome-wide, such as variants impacting spliceosome function.

This retrospective study investigated the effects of patient age on activity-specific functional outcomes at a minimum of 10 years following aTSA.
Methods: A retrospective review of a shoulder arthroplasty database was performed.
