Background: Hyperammonemic encephalopathy caused by high-dose infusion of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is a rare adverse reaction in rectal cancer patients with an incidence rate of 5.7%. Although the patient could be restored to normal after supportive treatments, the occurrence of this side effect was still inevitable.

Amyloidosis is a rare pathology characterized by protein deposits in various organs and tissues. Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) can be caused by various protein deposits, but transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) and immunoglobulin light chain (AL) are the most frequent pathologies. Protein misfolding can be induced by several factors such as oxidative stress, genetic mutations, aging, chronic inflammation, and neoplastic disorders.

Diabetes exacerbates the occurrence and severity of periodontitis, the pathogenesis of diabetic periodontitis (DPD) is influenced by the delayed resolution of inflammation. Eldecalcitol (ED-71) has shown promise in preventing bone loss in DPD. We herein aimed to investigate the role of ED-71 in the inflammatory regression phase of DPD and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.

Background: Concomitant cardiac amyloidosis (CA) and aortic stenosis (AS) may be mistaken for isolated AS, potentially impacting the treatment strategy and patient's prognosis. Therefore, it is crucial to distinguish between these conditions, as failure to promptly diagnose CA may lead to considerable complications. The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnostic value of strain predictors in patients with concomitant CA and AS compared to isolated AS.

Objectives: The use of plasma uracil measurements to detect dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency is one of the methods for preventing toxicities associated with fluoropyrimidines, including 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). Unfortunately, this measurement is subject to variations, that may lead to unnecessary dosage reductions and therefore to a reduced efficacy of treatment. Recently, new factors such as hepatic and renal impairment have been proposed as also influencing uracil concentration.
