We report a case of an immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome induced by gluteal silicones in a transgender woman living with HIV following the start of antiretroviral therapy. This case resembles the autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) syndrome that has been described as a complication of insertions of materials such as injected or implanted silicones. The potential of developing an inflammatory response in patient with injected or implanted silicones/foreign substances should be considered in patients who have recently started antiretroviral therapy.

Malignant hypertension induces thrombotic microangiopathy and renal failure: A case report.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Faculty of Chinese Medicine, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau, China.
Rationale: Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) caused by malignant hypertension is an acute and critical disease among rare diseases. Although renal biopsy pathology is a golden indicator for diagnosing kidney disease, it cannot distinguish between primary and secondary TMA and requires a comprehensive diagnosis in conjunction with other laboratory tests and medical history.
Patient Concerns: A 33-year-old young man was hospitalized due to unexplained kidney failure.
Study on mechanism of Spatholobi Caulis in the treatment of the hand-foot skin reaction induced by targeted drug therapy based on network pharmacology and molecular docking: An observational study.
Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai Fourth People's Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Based on network pharmacology and molecular docking methods, this study explored its active compounds and confirmed its potential mechanism of action against Hand-foot skin reaction induced by tumor-targeted drugs. Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform and UniProt Database were used to obtain the active ingredients and target proteins of Spatholobi Caulis. All hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR)-related targets were obtained with the help of the Human Gene Database, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Humans (OMIM), DisGeNET and DrugBank databases.

Medicine (Baltimore)
January 2025
Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, National University Hospital, Singapore.
Rationale: We report the efficacy of combination prednisolone and intravenous (IV) rituximab as an immunosuppressive regimen for a young male presenting with extensive venous thromboembolism including a submassive pulmonary embolism secondary to life-threatening nephrotic syndrome from very high risk anti-phospholipase-A2 receptor (PLA2R) positive membranous nephropathy. Initial treatment was with mechanical thrombectomy and anticoagulation. Thereafter, oral prednisolone was initiated to induce remission, during a period of uninterrupted anticoagulation.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is an "environmental obesogen" and this study aims to investigate the intergenerational impacts of BPA-induced metabolic syndrome (MetS), specifically focusing on unraveling mechanisms. Exposure to BPA induces metabolic disorders in the paternal mice, which are then transmitted to offspring, leading to late-onset MetS. Mechanistically, BPA upregulates Srebf1, which in turn promotes the Pparg-dependent transcription of Dicer1 in spermatocytes, increasing the levels of multiple sperm microRNAs (miRNAs).
