Distinct single cell transcriptional profile in CD4+ T-lymphocytes among obese children with asthma.
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol
January 2025
Johns Hopkins University, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Obesity is a risk factor for asthma morbidity, associated with less responsiveness to inhaled corticosteroids. CD4+ T-cells are central to the immunology of asthma and may contribute to the unique obese asthma phenotype. We sought to characterize the single cell CD4+ Transcriptional profile differences in obese children with asthma compared to normal weight children with asthma.

Int J Chron Obstruct Pulmon Dis
January 2025
School of Translational Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia.
Purpose: Oral corticosteroids (OCS) are recommended for the treatment of exacerbations in people with COPD; however, high cumulative lifetime doses (≥1000mg prednisolone-equivalent) are associated with adverse health effects. This issue is well defined in asthma but is less well understood in COPD. The aim of this study was to examine cumulative OCS dispensed to people with COPD over 12 months.

Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) is a rare, self-limiting condition typically characterized by fever and lymphadenopathy. The exact etiology remains unclear but is suspected to be associated with viral infections and autoimmune responses. This report presents the case of a 32-year-old Chinese male who was admitted with recurrent high fever, lymphadenopathy, and hepatosplenomegaly.

Crohns Colitis 360
January 2025
Division of Digestive Diseases and Nutrition, Department of Medicine, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, KY, USA.
Background: Despite advancements in the therapeutic armamentarium for Crohn's disease (CD), biologic and small molecule monotherapies are associated with sub-optimal response and remission rates. Utilizing dual biologic therapy (DBT) holds the potential to increase efficacy in the treatment of refractory or partially responsive CD. Evidence pertaining to this strategy remains limited.

Linear psoriasis (LP) represents a rare variant of psoriasis. The clinical presentation includes erythematous plaques distributed along the Blaschko lines, reflecting the presence of embryological mosaicism. The clinical and histopathological features of this condition show many similarities with inflammatory linear verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN), which presents a challenge in differential diagnosis.
