AI-Based Gut-Brain Axis Digital Twins.

More than 40% of the adult population suffers from functional gastrointestinal disorders, now considered disorders of the "gut-brain axis" (GBA) interactions, a very complex bidirectional neural, endocrine, immune, and humoral communication system modulated by the microbiota. To help discover, understand, and manage GBA disorders, the OnePlanet research center is developing digital twins focused on the GBA, combining novel sensors with artificial intelligence algorithms, providing descriptive, diagnostic, predictive or prescriptive feed-back.

Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis in a Newborn Presenting as "Blueberry Muffin Baby".

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, life-threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome characterized by uncontrolled activation and proliferation of proinflammatory cytokines. Initial presentation commonly includes fever, hepatosplenomegaly, and pancytopenia; 6 to 65% of cases also have a concurrent cutaneous eruption. We present the case of a 6-day-old premature infant boy with congenital severe thrombocytopenia, anemia, and hepatosplenomegaly who presented with several cutaneous violaceous papules and nodules and was found to have HLH.
