Importance: Identifying environmental factors that contribute to disease onset/activity in PV stands to improve clinical outcomes and patient quality of life by strategies aimed at reducing specific disease promoting exposures and promoting personalized clinical management strategies.
Objective: To evaluate the association between hydroxychloroquine use and the development of pemphigus using population level, publicly available, FDA-generated data.
Design: Observational, retrospective, case-control, pharmacovigilance analysis.

Background: Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is frequently utilized in rheumatic immune disorders and has been discovered to exert hypoglycemic effects in some obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS), however, the precise efficacy and mechanism of action remain ambiguous.
Objective: To examine the impact of HCQ on glucose and lipid metabolism as well as sex hormone levels in obese women with PCOS.
Method: Fifty obese women with PCOS were randomly allocated into two groups: HCQ group (n = 25) and metformin (MET) group (n = 25).

The abnormal physiology of the tumor microenvironment poses a challenge to the drug delivery in the tumor tissues. The dense tumor stroma hinders the movement of nanomedicine through the interstitium and negatively impacts their efficacy. In this study, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was investigated for its impact on alleviating the hindrance offered to the nanomedicine by extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen and hyaluronan.

Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease associated with increased cardiovascular risk, partly due to dyslipidemia. This study aimed to evaluate the lipid profiles of Saudi Arabian patients with SLE and examine the impact of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and steroid use on these profiles, with a particular focus on patients with lupus nephritis. Methods A retrospective observational study was conducted at King Saud Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, including SLE patients treated at the hospital's rheumatology clinic between July 2023 and December 2023.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a minimal (<15%) 5-year existence, in part due to resistance to chemoradiotherapy. Previous research reveals the impact of paricalcitol (P) and hydroxychloroquine (H) on altering the lysosomal fusion, decreasing stromal burden, and triggering PDAC to chemotherapies. This investigation aims to elucidate the molecular properties of the H and P combination and their potential in sensitizing PDAC to gemcitabine (G).
