Angioedema is a health issue that affects parts of the body like the upper pulmonary and gastric pathways and is identified by abrupt, nonpitting enlargement of the skin, mucous membranes, or both. The swelling usually lasts a few hours to 72 hours and may appear as non-puritic, subcutaneous, or submucosal organ edema. It is characterized by localized swelling brought on by the release of histamine.

Article Synopsis
  • Idiopathic non-histaminergic acquired angioedema (InH-AAE) is a rare disease that causes swelling and doesn't respond well to common medications like antihistamines.
  • The study looked at 26 patients with InH-AAE to understand their symptoms and possible markers of the disease, collecting a lot of health-related information.
  • Findings included changes in specific proteins in the blood and differences in blood vessel shape, helping to improve the understanding of InH-AAE and possibly leading to better treatments in the future.

On the other hand, many human diseases are the products of complex multi-organ interactions.
