Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a heterogeneous and rare genetic skin disease caused by mutations in the gene, which encodes Type VII collagen. The absence or dysfunction of Type VII collagen can cause the dense lower layer of the basal membrane zone of the skin to separate from the dermis, leading to blister formation and various complications. In different DEB subtypes, the severity of the phenotype is associated, to some extent, with the outcome of Type VII collagen caused by mutations in the gene, which may be reduced in expression, remarkably reduced, or completely absent.

Citrus black spot (CBS), caused by , is an important fungal disease of citrus. Higher CBS severity has been associated with infections at the young and green stages of fruit. The length of the fruit susceptibility period may be influenced by the amount of inoculum and the climate of the citrus growing region.

Background: Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a significant complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD), leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Early detection is essential for managing CKD patients effectively, especially those on hemodialysis. This study evaluated the prevalence CAN in CKD and diagnostic accuracy of Bellavere's Score in predicting CAN in CKD patients, including those undergoing hemodialysis.

Background: The nod-like receptor family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) has been implicated in various skin diseases. However, its role in mediating 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced chronic itch remains unclear.
Methods: Widetype () and deletion ( )mice, the expression of transient receptor potential (TRP) ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) inhibitor or recombinant mice interleukin-18 (IL-18) were used to establish and evaluate the severity of DNFB-mediated chronic itch.

Tuberculous meningitis (TBM), a severe form of non-purulent meningitis caused by (Mtb), is the most critical extrapulmonary tuberculosis (TB) manifestation, with a 30-40% mortality rate despite available treatment. The absence of distinctive clinical symptoms and effective diagnostic tools complicates early detection. Recent advancements in nucleic acid detection, genomics, metabolomics, and proteomics have led to novel diagnostic approaches, improving sensitivity and specificity.
