Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated, inflammatory disease primarily affecting the skin. It is currently coming to light that patients with psoriasis have disrupted intestinal barrier and often suffer from comorbidities associated with the gastrointestinal tract. Moreover, there is growing evidence of both cutaneous and intestinal paradoxical reactions during biologic treatment in patients with psoriasis. This review focuses on barrier defects and changes in immune responses in patients with psoriasis, which play an important role in the development of the disease but are also influenced by modern biological treatments targeting IL-17 and TNFα cytokines. Here, we highlight the relationship between the gut-skin axis, microbiota, psoriasis treatment, and the incidence of paradoxical reactions, such as inflammatory bowel disease in patients with psoriasis. A better understanding of the interconnection of these mechanisms could lead to a more personalized therapy and lower the incidence of treatment side effects, thereby improving the quality of life of the affected patients.

Capillary refill time paradoxically decreases in a blood loss shock model.

Intensive Care Med Exp

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, and Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Linköping University, 582 25, Linköping, Sweden.

Background: This study aimed to investigate whether changes in capillary refill (CR) time precede macrovascular signs of deterioration in a human model of blood loss shock. The study was conducted at the Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, Sweden, and involved 42 healthy volunteers aged 18-45. Participants were randomized into two provocations of applied lower body negative pressure (LBNP): a stepwise escalation protocol and a direct application protocol, to simulate gradual and acute blood loss.

Effects of patent foramen ovale in migraine: a metabolomics-based study.

J Physiol

January 2025

Department of Neurology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.

Patent foramen ovale (PFO), a cardiac anatomical anomaly inducing abnormal haemodynamics, leads to a paradoxical bypass of the pulmonary circulation. PFO closure might alleviate migraines; however, clinical evidence and basic experiments for the relationship are lacking. To explore the effect of PFO on migraine, 371 migraineurs finishing blood tests and contrast transthoracic echocardiography for the detection of PFO were prospectively included.

Enhanced sampling of protein conformational changes via true reaction coordinates from energy relaxation.

Nat Commun

January 2025

Center for Bioinformatics and Quantitative Biology, Richard and Loan Hill Department of Biomedical Engineering, The University of Illinois Chicago, 851 South Morgan Street, Chicago, IL, 60607, USA.

The bottleneck in enhanced sampling lies in finding collective variables that effectively accelerate protein conformational changes; true reaction coordinates that accurately predict the committor are the well-recognized optimal choice. However, identifying them requires unbiased natural reactive trajectories, which, paradoxically, require effective enhanced sampling. Using the generalized work functional method, we uncover that true reaction coordinates control both conformational changes and energy relaxation, enabling us to compute them from energy relaxation simulations.

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) inhibitors are commonly used for management of various autoimmune disorders but can rarely cause isolated cutaneous lupus. This report presents two cases of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (LE) in women aged 38 and 61 after adalimumab treatment for psoriasis highlighting the importance of recognizing these paradoxical reactions for timely management.

Paradoxical reactions (PRs) to biologic medications, such as psoriasis, arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), have been increasingly recognized. The aim of reporting this case is to establish an association between golimumab and exacerbation or new (de novo) IBD in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (SpA). Our case involves a young patient with juvenile-onset ankylosing spondylitis (AS) who developed de novo IBD following golimumab therapy for active spinal disease.
