Background: Brucellosis is a contagious bacterial disease caused by species, which is a leading zoonotic disease worldwide. Most patients with brucellosis have a clear infection source; however, our case had a rare presentation of secondary haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis without any epidemiological history.
Case Summary: A 50-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a fever of unknown origin.
Anemia is highly prevalent in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and CKD patients always have lower plasma but higher erythrocyte Zn levels than healthy people. To date, no satisfactory mechanism has explained these Zn metabolism abnormalities. We collected blood samples from patients on hemodialysis, 5/6 nephrectomized rats and phenylhydrazine (PHZ)-induced anemic mice and rats and compared them with their normal counterparts.

- - The study aimed to explore how apoptosis (cell death) contributes to acute lung injury (ALI) in rabbits that experienced blast exposure.
- - Researchers divided 40 rabbits into two groups, conducting various tests on lung tissue at multiple time points to assess physical and biochemical changes associated with ALI.
- - Results showed significant damage in the experimental group, including increased lung weight, decreased oxygen levels, and higher apoptosis rates, suggesting that apoptosis is a key factor in the development of ALI.
