Lecanemab, a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds with high affinity to amyloid-beta (Aβ) protofibrils, was formally evaluated as a treatment for early Alzheimer's disease in a phase 2 study (Study 201) and the phase 3 Clarity AD study. These trials both included an 18-month, randomized study (core) and an open-label extension (OLE) phase where eligible participants received open-label lecanemab for up to 30 months to date. Clinical (CDR-SB, ADAS-Cog14, and ADCS-MCI-ADL), biomarker (PET, Aβ42/40 ratio, and ptau181) and safety outcomes were evaluated.

Background: Fatty liver disease may be associated with increased risks of intrahepatic and extrahepatic cancers. Our objective was to investigate associations between new subcategories of steatotic liver disease (SLD) recently proposed by nomenclature consensus group and cancer risk.
Methods: A total of 283 238 participants from the UK Biobank were included.

Inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase E (INPP5E) is a 5-phosphatase critically involved in diverse physiological processes, including embryonic development, neurological function, immune regulation, hemopoietic cell dynamics, and macrophage proliferation, differentiation, and phagocytosis. Mutations in cause Joubert and Meckel-Gruber syndromes in humans; these are characterized by brain malformations, microphthalmia, situs inversus, skeletal abnormalities, and polydactyly. Recent studies have demonstrated the key role of INPP5E in governing intracellular processes like endocytosis, exocytosis, vesicular trafficking, and membrane dynamics.

Monochorionic twin pregnancies carry a risk of perinatal complications due to shared placental anastomoses, which can cause uneven blood distribution and lead to conditions like selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR). This case describes a monochorionic pregnancy complicated by preeclampsia and late-onset sFGR of twin B. Labor was prematurely induced and a 45% weight discordance between the twins was confirmed.
