Background Post-COVID-19 syndrome (PC19S) is an emerging pathological entity characterized by the development or persistence of a spectrum of symptoms and signs 12 weeks after the original disease. Most COVID-19 patients show a variety of persistent symptoms after recovery that impact their quality of life and professional performance. The prevalence of PC19S is found to be high among many populations hence, the need for knowledge and understanding of its risk factors, symptoms, and the awareness of the population about them to improve the provided health and medical care.

- A study was conducted to assess the levels of interleukin-17A, interleukin-1 beta, and interleukin-18 in the saliva of patients with celiac disease on a gluten-free diet, both with and without periodontitis, compared to healthy individuals.
- Results showed that while periodontal health was better in celiac disease patients on a gluten-free diet, there were no significant differences in the interleukin levels between them and healthy controls, although those with periodontitis had elevated levels.
- The study found significant negative correlations between serum IgA levels and measures of dental plaque and gum health in celiac patients on a gluten-free diet, indicating a link between immune system responses and oral health.
Abnormal aggregation and amyloid inclusions of TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) and α-Synuclein (α-Syn) are frequently co-observed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. Several reports showed TDP-43 C-terminal domain (CTD) and α-Syn interact with each other and the aggregates of these two proteins colocalized together in different cellular and animal models. Molecular dynamics simulation was conducted to elucidate the stability of the TDP-43 and Syn complex structure.

It has become increasingly evident that the pathological processes of IBDs results from interactions between genetic and environmental factors, which can skew immune responses against normal intestinal flora.
Methods: The aim of this study is to assess and analyze the taxa diversity and relative abundances in CD and UC in the Saudi population.
