Objective: The aim: Grounding on the electronic microscopy of PT make conclusions about the tonsil activity in adults depending on the accompanied pathology of nose and PS.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Ultramicroscopic examination of 111 patients with PT hypertrophy aged 18-55 was done. Depending on the nose and PS pathology (inflammatory, non-inflammatory) patients' PS biopsic materials were distributed into 2 groups: 58 cases on inflammatory and 53 on non-inflammatory background. The control group consisted of 24 patients aged 18 without nose and PS pathology. The images of ultrathin PT sections were received with the help of transmission electronic microscope PEM - 125 with digital camera (SELMI, Sumy).
Results: Results: Great variations in PT cell condition, depending on the pathology were distinguished. Features of the adenoiditis in inflammatory and non-inflammatory diseases of nose and PS were proved.
Conclusion: Conclusions: 1. PT ultra-microscopy in control group shows great activity of lymphocytes and high energy exchange of cells, with prevailing B-lymphocyte population. 2. The complex of PT ultra structural changes while nose and PS inflammatory diseases shows the activation of immune reaction in competent cells with T-lymphocyte increase in patients older than 25, which witnesses chronic inflammation. 3. In group with nose and PT non-inflammatory diseases, activity of PT B-lymphocytes is unchanged accompanied by the T-lymphocytes growth, which is also characteristic for chronic inflammation.

Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) is a non-atherosclerotic, non-inflammatory vascular disease of medium-sized arteries that causes abnormal cellular growth in arterial walls and most commonly affects young to middle-aged women (20-50 years of age). While FMD often involves the renal arteries, it can affect any arterial bed. FMD has a characteristic angiographic appearance of a "string of beads.

Background And Aims: Previous results of the Dermatology-Life-Quality-Index (DLQI) validation in Colombia based on the classical test theory (CTT) perspective have showed the need to delve into its measurement properties. Therefore, we aimed to assess the structural validity, internal consistency and item response analysis of the DLQI through the item response theory (IRT) or the Rasch model.
Material And Methods: We assessed the dimensionality of the DLQI, determined its difficulty, discrimination and differential functioning and went on to evaluate its internal consistency and discriminative validity among patients with inflammatory and non-inflammatory skin disease.
CSF cytokine, chemokine and injury biomarker profile of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) autoimmunity.

Defining the CSF cytokine/chemokine and injury biomarker signature of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) autoimmunity can inform immunopathogenesis. CSF GFAP-IgG-positive samples (N = 98) were tested for 17 cytokines/chemokines, neurofilament light chain (NfL), and GFAP (ELLA, Bio-Techne). Controls included non-inflammatory (N = 42), AQP4-IgG-positive (N = 83), CNS infections (N = 13), and neurosarcoidosis (N = 32).

However, in steady-state conditions, certain DC subsets, such as Langerhans cells (LCs), induce T follicular helper (Tfh) cells and B cell responses without inflammatory stimuli. Using multiple mouse models and systems, we investigated the mechanisms underlying steady-state LC-induced adaptive immune responses.

is a common scalp fungal infection with significant implications for public health, particularly in regions where proper hygiene and access to healthcare are limited. Emerging evidence suggests that this disease, particularly in young male individuals, may be related to certain unsanitary practices in barbershop settings, such as the use of contaminated shaving equipment. To increase awareness of the risk of scalp dermatophyte infections by disclosing different cases of that had arisen shortly after hairdressing procedures and providing a comprehensive review of the existing literature.
