Background: Here, we refer to our publication "Symptoms of depression change with olfactory function" [Sci Rep. 2022 Apr 5;12(1):5656].
Objectives: Depression decreases with olfactory improvement, but the question remains open of whether patients who indicate more suffering regarding mood impairment exhibit a different pattern of recovery from olfactory loss compared to those who suffer less.
Method: In the course of an additional investigation of our previously published dataset, we established groups of participants (N = 171) with low (≤8 points on a depression [ADSL] scale; 47%; n = 45) and high (≥14 points on ADSL scale; 53%; n = 53) mood impairment.
Results: We found that the group that reported more sufferance on a depression [ADSL] scale improved more in change of olfactory function, and, more importantly, odor discrimination change over a period of an average of 11 months.
Conclusion: Patients, who suffered more, as indicated by higher scores on ADSL scale, may have been more willing to commit to the study protocol, and thus their improvement was more notable.

Background: Heterozygous immunoproteasome subunit beta-type 10 (PSMB10) mutations can cause severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and Omenn syndrome (OS). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in these patients is associated with severe complications and poor immune reconstitution, often resulting in death.
Objective: To perform immunological and molecular characterization of an infant with a PSMB10 heterozygous variant.

Chemobrain can be defined as the development of cognitive side effects following chemotherapy, which is increasingly reported in cancer survivor patients. Chemobrain leads to reduced patients' quality of life by causing different symptoms ranging from strokes and seizures to memory loss and mood disorders. Metformin, an antidiabetic drug, has been proposed as a potential treatment to improve the symptoms of chemotherapy-induced cognitive dysfunction.
