The severity of Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS) varies among subtypes, which can be mainly Acute Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (AIDP), Acute Motor Axonal Neuropathy (AMAN), Acute Motor Sensory Axonal Neuropathy (AMSAN) and Miller-Fisher Syndrome (MF). In this study, we use a real dataset that contains clinical, serological, and nerve conduction tests data obtained from 129 GBS patients. We apply C4.5 decision tree, SVM (Support Vector Machines) using a Gaussian kernel, and kNN (k Nearest Neighbour) to predict four GBS subtypes. Accuracies were calculated and averaged across 30 10-fold cross-validation (10-FCV) runs. C4.5 obtained 0.9211 (±0.0109), kNN 0.9179 (±0.0041), and SVM 0.9154 (±0.0069). This is an ongoing research project and further experiments are being conducted.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Electronic address:
Preeclampsia (PE), a pregnancy-related syndrome, has motivated extensive research to understand its pathophysiology and develop early diagnostic methods. 'Omic' technologies, focusing on genes, mRNA, proteins, and metabolites, have revolutionized biological system studies. Urine emerges as an ideal non-invasive specimen for omics analysis, offering accessibility, easy collection, and stability, making it valuable for identifying biomarkers.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), defined as membrane-bound vesicles released from all cells, are being explored for their diagnostic and therapeutic role in dry eye disease (DED). We systematically shortlisted 32 articles on the role of EVs in diagnosing and treating DED. The systematic review covers the progress in the last 2 decades about the classification and isolation of EVs and their role in DED.

Chapter 5: THE ROLE OF GENETICS IN PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM.
Ann Endocrinol (Paris)
January 2025
Univ. Lille, Inserm, CHU Lille, U1286 - Infinite, F-59045 Lille Cedex, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Lille University Hospital, Lille, France. Electronic address:
Around 10% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism are thought to be genetic in origin, some of which are part of a syndromic form such as multiple endocrine neoplasia types 1, 2A or 4 or hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome, while the remainder are cases of isolated familial primary hyperparathyroidism. Recognition of these genetic forms is important to ensure appropriate management according to the gene and type of variant involved, but screening for a genetic cause is not justified in all patients presenting primary hyperparathyroidism. The indications for genetic analysis have made it possible to propose a decision tree that takes into account whether the presentation is familial or sporadic, syndromic or isolated, patient age, and histopathological type of parathyroid lesion.

Ann Endocrinol (Paris)

Endocrinology Department, Huriez Hospital, Lille University Hospital, France. Electronic address:
Syndromic primary hyperparathyroidism has several features in common: younger age at diagnosis when compared with sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism, often synchronous or metachronous multi-glandular involvement, higher possibility of recurrence, association with other endocrine or extra-endocrine disorders, and suggestive family background with autosomal dominant inheritance. Hyperparathyroidism in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 is the most common syndromic hyperparathyroidism. It is often asymptomatic in adolescents and young adults, but may be responsible for recurrent lithiasis and/or bone loss.
