Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis is a benign inflammatory condition that most commonly affects the submandibular gland in elderly individuals. It is currently known to belong to the spectrum of IgG4-related systemic diseases, which is reflected by systemic involvement on F-FDG PET/CT images. We presented a case of a 73-year-old man with histologically proven IgG4-related chronic sclerosing sialadenitis, unilateral localized form, on whole-body F-FDG PET/CT images that mimicked submandibular carcinoma with lymph node metastasis.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a rare but highly malignant carcinoma of bile duct epithelial cells with a poor prognosis. The major risk factors of CCA carcinogenesis and progression are cholestatic liver diseases. The key feature of primary sclerosing cholangitis and primary biliary cholangitis is chronic cholestasis, which means a slowdown of hepatocyte secretion of biliary lipids and metabolites into bile as well as a slowdown of enterohepatic circulation (bile acid recirculation) of bile acids with dysbiosis of the gut microbiome, which was shown to lead to enterohepatic recirculation and an increase of toxic secondary bile acids.

Background And Aims: Alcohol abuse is the most frequent precipitating factor of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). We aimed at developing an alcohol-induced ACLF model and dissecting its underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: ACLF was triggered by a single alcohol binge (5g/Kg) in a bile duct ligation (BDL) liver fibrosis murine model.

Primary chronic osteomyelitis (PCO) is a rare non-bacterial autoinflammatory severe disease that most often affects children aged 7 to 12 years and is much less common in adults. The most common areas of lesion are long tubular bones, however, any bones of the skeleton, including the lower jaw, can be affected. The clinical picture of this disease is complex and similar to many tumor and tumor-like bone lesions, which often leads to a significant delay in making a correct diagnosis.

Article Synopsis
- - Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) are chronic liver diseases that damage bile ducts and lead to liver fibrosis and cirrhosis, but no specific biomarkers exist to differentiate them.
- - This study analyzed saliva samples from 6 PBC patients using advanced mass spectrometry, comparing the results with samples from PSC patients, and identified 40 proteins that were significantly deregulated in PSC.
- - The research revealed that some of these proteins are involved in immune responses and cytoskeleton remodeling, suggesting that saliva could be a valuable source for discovering biomarkers to differentiate between PSC and PBC.
Ultrasonographic features of feline gastrointestinal eosinophilic sclerosing fibroplasia on initial presentation and during follow-up.

The aim of this study is to describe the ultrasonographic features of feline gastrointestinal eosinophilic sclerosing fibroplasia (FGESF) before histological diagnosis and during follow-up after surgical excision and/or medical treatment. This multicentric retrospective case series study includes medical records of cats diagnosed histologically, which had an ultrasound before diagnosis and a minimum of one follow-up ultrasound at least 4 weeks after treatment. Thirty cats were included in the study.
