Background: Proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposits (PGNMID) is a rare entity classified under the umbrella of monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance. The clinical implications of circulating monoclonal immunoglobulin (MIg), light chain restriction on immunofluorescence (IF) microscopy, histopathological pattern, and type of therapy on renal outcomes are not clearly defined.
Materials And Methods: Sixteen patients of PGNMID diagnosed between 2013 and 2020 were included from a biopsy registry of 11,459 patients at a single center.

Background: The clinical phenotypes of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) have been found to overlap with several other diseases. The new criteria proposed in 2023 were designed to better identify the disease but require validation across various populations to ascertain its clinical utility. We aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance in phenotypically diverse patients.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal disease, characterized by impaired wound repair, tissue remodeling and fibrosis. Immune system may participate in the development and progression of the disease as indicated by altered activity in IPF sufferers. This study investigates the immune response to the BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine in patients with IPF compared to healthy controls, with a particular focus on evaluation of antibody responses, interferon-gamma release, cytokine profiling and a broad panel of immune cell subpopulations.

Objective: This study retrospectively evaluates our laboratory immunoglobulin (Ig)M, IgG antibody and avidity test results to determine the distribution of the pathogen according to sex, age, clinics and years.
Methods: The serum samples sent to Pamukkale University Healthcare Research and Practice Hospital's Medical Microbiology laboratory between January 2016 and December 2023 were evaluated for seropositivity. antibodies and avidity testing were studied using chemiluminescent microparticle immunological testing method (Abbott Architect i2000SR, Weisbaden, Germany).
