We present an unusual case of Turner syndrome (TS) and Cushing disease (CD) in a young woman, admitted to our department seven years after a successful surgical removal of ACTH-secreting pituitary tumor.

- The study investigates the relationship between antibodies against monomeric C-reactive protein (anti-mCRP) and lupus nephritis, aiming to see if these antibodies can indicate disease activity and treatment response.
- Patients with lupus nephritis showed the highest levels of anti-mCRP compared to other groups, and these levels correlated with traditional markers of disease activity.
- The findings suggest that anti-mCRP can be a valuable biomarker for monitoring lupus nephritis and assessing treatment effectiveness in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
