A review of literature comprises the main data on etiological factors, pathogenetic mechanisms, clinical peculiarities and methods of diagnosis of the hyperventilation syndrome. Physicians' insufficient knowledge of this disease is emphasized. Various clinical manifestations are based on the same pathogenetic mechanisms of acute or chronic respiratory disregulation resulting in hypocapnia, a rise of vascular tone, and electrolytic disorders. Of great practical importance is the use of a unified clinical classification, of which a variant is proposed by the authors. The main therapeutic modalities are: 1) psychotherapy, 2) pharmacotherapy, 3) exercise therapy.

Introduction: In recent years, the understanding of atopic dermatitis (AD) pathogenetic mechanisms has expanded and now it is recognized that Th2 immune axis dysregulation is pivotal to AD pathogenesis. The advent of biological drugs and small molecules have marked a revolution in the treatment of AD. Dupilumab, targeting IL-4 and IL-13, has been the first to demonstrate efficacy in treating moderate to severe AD by modulating type-2 inflammation pathways.

SUMMARY is a major human pathogen. It can cause many types of infections, in particular bacteremia, which frequently leads to infective endocarditis, osteomyelitis, sepsis, and other debilitating diseases. The development of secondary infections is based on the bacterium's ability to associate with endothelial cells lining blood vessels.

The heart employs a specialized ribosome in its muscle cells to translate genetic information into proteins, a fundamental adaptation with an elusive physiological role. Its significance is underscored by the discovery of neonatal patients suffering from often fatal heart failure caused by rare compound heterozygous variants in RPL3L, a muscle-specific ribosomal protein that replaces the ubiquitous RPL3 in cardiac ribosomes. -linked heart failure represents the only known human disease arising from mutations in tissue-specific ribosomes, yet the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms remain poorly understood despite an increasing number of reported cases.

Pathogenic variants of GDAP1 cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), an inherited neuropathy characterized by axonal degeneration. GDAP1, an atypical glutathione S-transferase, localizes to the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), regulating this organelle's dynamics, transport, and membrane contact sites (MCSs). It has been proposed that GDAP1 functions as a cellular redox sensor.

Background: Mutations in the structural domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase represent a critical pathogenetic factor in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Small-molecule EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) serve as first-line therapeutic agents for the treatment of EGFR-mutated NSCLC. But the resistance mutations of EGFR restrict the clinical application of EGFR-TKIs.
