Objective: This study analyzed the systemic and oral abnormalities in individuals with Kabuki syndrome (KS) that might be investigated to enhance the early diagnosis and treatment by a multidisciplinary team, minimizing the consequences to the individual's health.
Study Design: Clinical examination was conducted on 15 individuals to investigate orodental alterations such as tooth abnormalities and cleft lip and/or palate, and the patient records were also reviewed to investigate systemic diseases such as cardiopathies, infectious and immunologic diseases, nephropathies, and delayed neuropsychomotor development.
Results: All individuals with KS presented cleft lip and/or palate, 11 (73.34%) tooth abnormalities, 5 (33.34%) congenital cardiopathies, 12 (80%) infectious or immunologic diseases, 1 (6.67%) nephropathy, and 14 (93.34%) had an intellectual disability.
Conclusion: Individuals with KS often have dental anomalies such as hypodontia, cleft or palate, and systemic disorders such as congenital heart disease and infectious diseases. Intellectual disability is present in most cases. These alterations should be investigated as early as possible to prevent the increase in morbidity in these individuals.

Purpose: Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a complex systemic fibroinflammatory condition with different clinical manifestations affecting multiple organ systems. Despite its rarity, the disease presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to its mimicry of malignancies and other immune-mediated disorders. The 2019 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism Classification Criteria for IgG4-Related Disease is the current state of art to confirm the diagnosis of IgG4-RD even in the absence of histological analysis.

NIM-1324 is an oral investigational new drug for autoimmune disease that targets the Lanthionine Synthetase C-like 2 (LANCL2) pathway. Through activation of LANCL2, NIM-1324 modulates CD4+ T cells to bias signaling and cellular metabolism toward increased immunoregulatory function while providing similar support to phagocytes. In primary human immune cells, NIM-1324 reduces type I interferon and inflammatory cytokine (IL-6, IL-8) production.

Recurrent aphthous stomatitis is a common oral mucosal disorder characterized by painful ulcerations and frequent recurrences, which can significantly impair quality of life. This study explores the efficacy of zinc-enriched multivitamin supplementation (ZnVita, containing 22.5 mg of elemental zinc) for the treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis in treatment-naïve patients, aiming to diminish the reliance on immunomodulatory drugs.

Clinical atrial fibrillation (AF) is a well-established major risk factor for stroke and systemic embolism. Pivotal trials have shown that treatment with oral anticoagulation reduces the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in clinical AF with a simultaneous increase in the risk of major bleeding. To help balance the risk of stroke and bleeding in clinical AF, different prediction models including biomarkers and clinical features have been validated.
