Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and arthrofibrosis (AF) are both chronic synovial hyperplasia diseases that result in joint stiffness and contractures. They shared similar symptoms and many common features in pathogenesis. Our study aims to perform a comprehensive analysis between RA and AF and identify novel drugs for clinical use.

Background Aims: Cytopenias after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) are a common complication, the underlying pathogenic mechanisms of which remain incompletely understood. Multipotent mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (MSC) therapy has been successfully employed in the treatment of immune-related disorders and can aid in the restoration of the hematopoietic niche.
Methods: A phase II clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of administering four sequential doses of ex-vivo expanded bone marrow MSCs from a third-party donor to patients with persistent severe cytopenias after allo-SCT was performed.

Introduction: Zinc deficiency may worsen the severity of olfactory dysfunction; however, the relationship between serum zinc levels and therapeutic effects on olfactory dysfunction remains uncertain. This study investigated the relationship between normalising serum zinc levels and the therapeutic effects on olfactory dysfunction.
Methods: Forty-two patients diagnosed with post-infectious, post-traumatic, and idiopathic olfactory dysfunction, with serum zinc levels <70 μg/dL, were included in the study.

Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease in which Spike protein from SARS-CoV-2 plays a key role in transferring virus genomic code into target cells. Spike protein, which is found on the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, latches onto angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors (ACE2r) on target cells. The RNA genome of coronaviruses, with an average length of 29 kb, is the longest among all RNA viruses and comprises six to ten open reading frames (ORFs) responsible for encoding replicase and structural proteins for the virus.
