Atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by a complex epidermal barrier deficiency and exaggerated immune responses dominated by type-2-mechanisms with variable contributions of additional immune axes. Interleukin (IL)-13 is overexpressed in AD skin and a key driver of both barrier dysfunction and inflammation. We here prospectively studied the effects of IL-13 inhibition with tralokinumab on cutaneous transcriptome profiles using RNA sequencing of biopsies from 16 moderate-to-severe AD patients obtained at baseline, week 2 and week 16.

Background And Aims: In coeliac disease, the clinical role of the urinary gluten immunogenic peptide is unclear. It has been suggested it can be a non-invasive marker of villous atrophy. Therefore, we present the largest cross-sectional clinical data in patients with coeliac disease to establish the diagnostic accuracy of the urinary gluten immunogenic peptide in identifying villous atrophy.

Most pancreatic cancer patients are diagnosed at advanced stages, with poor survival rates and drug resistance making pancreatic cancer one of the highest causes of cancer death in the UK. Understanding the underlying mechanism behind its carcinogenesis, metastasis and drug resistance has become an essential task for researchers. We have discovered that a well-established tumour suppressor, EPLIN, has an oncogenic rather than suppressive role in pancreatic cancer.

Background: Prune belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare condition characterized by absence of abdominal musculature, cryptorchidism, and obstructive uropathy. The most common orthopaedic problem is scoliosis, yet no reports on growth-friendly surgical treatment of early-onset scoliosis (EOS) exist. Our purpose was to evaluate outcomes of distraction-based implants in children with PBS.
