Serial blood measurements of myoglobin (MG) revealed a common trend of change in acute macro- and microfocal myocardial infarction, focal myocardial dystrophy, angina of effort and angina at rest as well as unstable angina. Differences in myoglobinemic parameters (MG peak level, increment rate, normalization time) between different clinical variants of CHD are quantitative. It is suggested that there is an intravital relationship between each of the examined clinical variants, in their acute phase, and a specific equivalent of an acute myocardial ischemic damage focus, as shown by the degree of hypermyoglobinemia.

Psoriasis affects a significant proportion of the worldwide population and causes an extremely heavy psychological and physical burden. The existing therapeutic schemes have many deficiencies such as limited efficacies and various side effects. Therefore, novel ways of treating psoriasis are urgently needed.

Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused primarily by pathogenic variants in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes. Although the type of ADPKD variant can influence disease severity, rare, hypomorphic PKD1 variants have also been reported to modify disease severity or cause biallelic ADPKD. This study examines whether rare, additional, potentially protein-altering, non-pathogenic PKD1 variants contribute to ADPKD phenotypic outcomes.

SARS-CoV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) Variants of Concern (VOCs), such as the Omicron sub-variants, present significant challenges in pandemic control due to their capacity to escape antibodies and breach vaccine protections. Discovering antibodies that can tolerate mutations in VOCs and understanding their underlying mechanisms is crucial for developing therapeutics for COVID-19 patients, particularly those for whom other therapies may be unsuitable. Here, we report the neutralization of the Omicron variant by FD20, a broadly active human monoclonal antibody.

Predicting the risks of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 in idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) and recurrence of the disease (rNS) following kidney transplantation (KT) is a key assessment to provide essential management information. NS has been categorized etiologically as genetic and immune-based. A genetic cause can be identified in ~ 30% of children with steroid-resistant NS (SRNS), a finding associated with a very low risk of rNS following KT.

Lichen nitidus (LN) is a rare inflammatory skin condition characterized by small, shiny, flat-topped papules, commonly affecting children and young adults. Its etiology remains unclear, though immune-mediated pathways are suspected. LN is often asymptomatic, with papules primarily on the trunk, upper limbs, and genitalia.
