Peroxisomal disorders are a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by mutations in a large number of genes. One of the genetic disorders known to cause this situation is ACBD5 (Acyl-CoA binding-domain-containing-5) gene mutations that have been described in recent years. Here, we report two siblings with a novel homozygous nonsense variation (c.1297C>T, p.Arg433*) in ACBD5 (NM_145698.4) gene using Clinical Exome Sequencing (Sophia Genetics).

Introduction: Clinical outcome measures used under value-based reimbursement models require risk stratification of patient demographics and medical history. Only certain perioperative patient factors may be influenced by the surgeon. The study evaluated surgeon-influenced modifiable factors associated with achieving literature-defined KOOS score thresholds to serve as the foundation of the newly established alternative payment models for total knee arthroplasties (TKA).

Comprehensive and transparent reporting of these studies is critical for their accurate and critical interpretation, which may improve and expedite therapeutic development. However, quality of reporting of design characteristics and results from EPDF trials is often variable and incomplete.

Introduction: People migrating to the Canary Islands by sea frequently suffer from potentially severe skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) for which optimal empirical antibiotic therapy is not well defined.
Methods: This descriptive retrospective observational study assess a case series of newly arrived maritime migrants to the Canary Islands who were diagnosed with clinical and microbiological SSTIs and admitted to the Nuestra Señora de La Candelaria Hospital in Tenerife between January 2020 and December 2023. Clinical data, bacterial species, resistance profiles, and choice of empirical treatments were analysed.

Objectives: To update the 2017 European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) recommendations for treatment of systemic sclerosis (SSc), incorporating new evidence and therapies.
Methods: An international task force was convened in line with EULAR standard operating procedures. A nominal group technique exercise was performed in two rounds to define questions underpinning a subsequent systematic literature review.

Background: Cardiovascular (CV) comorbidities and concurrent medications with risk of heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can impact treatment decisions and safety discussions for patients with breast cancer. However, limited data are available regarding their prevalence in patients with HR + /HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC). We evaluated the prevalence of CV comorbidities, the use of concurrent medications with risk of QTc prolongation, and treatment patterns in patients with newly diagnosed HR + /HER2 - mBC.
