Hyperlactatemia and anemia commonly coexist and their crosstalk is a longstanding mystery with elusive mechanisms involved in physical activities, infections, cancers, and genetic disorders. For instance, hyperlactatemia leads to iron restriction by upregulating hepatic hepcidin expression. Increasing evidence also points to lactate as a crucial signaling molecule rather than merely a metabolic byproduct. Here, we discuss the mutual influence between anemia and hyperlactatemia. This opinion calls for a reconsideration of the multifaceted roles of lactate and lactylation in anemia and emphasizes the need to fill knowledge gaps, including the dose dependence of lactate's effects, its sources, and its subcellular localization.

Failure to Thrive, Metabolic Acidosis, and Diarrhea in a 7-Week-Old Infant.
Pediatrics

Pediatric Hospital Medicine, Department of Pediatrics.
A 7-week-old infant presented to the emergency department with fussiness, decreased oral intake, loose stool, and respiratory distress for 2 days. The patient was born full-term with an uncomplicated birth history but had a history of slow weight gain. He was alert, but toxic-appearing at presentation, hypothermic with signs of dehydration, and with respiratory failure.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the effectiveness of a modified severe malaria classification for patients in non-endemic areas, as the current WHO definition may misclassify cases.
- Among 506 malaria patients, 34.8% were classified with severe malaria, with only 7.3% developing life-threatening conditions, primarily in the very severe malaria group.
- The findings suggest that existing severity criteria need reevaluation in non-endemic settings, as less severe malaria cases show a low risk of severe outcomes.
Variants in the SARS2 gene cause HUPRA syndrome with atypical features: two case reports and review of the literature.

Pediatric Department, Beit-Jala Governmental Hospital, Bethlehem, Palestine.
Hyperuricemia, pulmonary hypertension, renal failure in infancy, and alkalosis (HUPRA syndrome) is a rare autosomal recessive mitochondrial disease with a prevalence of <1:1 000 000, due to variations in the seryl-tRNA synthetase (SARS2) gene encoding SARS on . This study investigated two Palestinian girls from the same village who presented with progressive renal failure during infancy, with atypical clinical manifestations of HUPRA syndrome including leukopenia, anemia, salt wasting, renal failure, marked hyperuricemia, hypercholesterolemia, hyperlactatemia, and hypertriglyceridemia but without pulmonary hypertension or alkalosis. Instead, they showed acidosis on routine follow-up, distinguishing them from previous cases.

Jejunal haemorrhage syndrome (JHS) is a sporadic and fatal enterotoxaemic disease in dairy cows associated with acute development and poor prognosis despite treatment. A 5-year-old Holstein cow with no reported pregnancy, three calving numbers, and 303 days in milk presented with hypothermia, discomfort, and inappetence. Anaemia, dehydration, faeces with blood clots, and absence of rumen and bowel movements were observed.
