Post-acute coronavirus disease 2019 syndrome (PACS), following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection or coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is typically characterized by long-term debilitating symptoms affecting multiple organs and systems. Unfortunately, there is currently a lack of effective treatment strategies. Altered gut microbiome has been proposed as one of the plausible mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of PACS; extensive studies have emerged to bridge the gap between the persistent symptoms and the dysbiosis of gut microbiome.

Severe forms of vascular malformations (VM) can highly impact patients' quality of life and lead to life-threatening organ dysfunction. Numerous VM are caused by somatic activating mutations in the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling pathway. Alpelisib, a PIK3CA inhibitor was recently FDA-approved for paediatric PIK3CA-related overgrowth syndrome (PROS).

Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disorder affecting the central nervous system, with varying clinical manifestations such as optic neuritis, sensory disturbances, and brainstem syndromes. Disease progression is monitored through methods like MRI scans, disability scales, and optical coherence tomography (OCT), which can detect retinal thinning, even in the absence of optic neuritis. MS progression involves neurodegeneration, particularly trans-synaptic degeneration, which extends beyond the initial injury site.

Background: Long COVID, a heterogeneous condition characterized by a range of physical and neuropsychiatric presentations, can be presented with a proportion of COVID-19-infected individuals.
Methods: Transcriptomic data sets of those within gene expression profiles of COVID-19, long COVID, and healthy controls were retrieved from the GEO database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) falling under COVID-19 and long COVID were identified with R packages, and contemporaneously conducted module detection was performed with the Modular Pharmacology Platform (http://112.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for fertility-sparing treatment in Lynch syndrome-associated endometrial cancer (LS-EC).
Methods: Four LS-EC cases received programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors for fertility preservation at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from 2017 to 2023. The clinical data and long-term outcomes were retrospectively reviewed.
