Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) and clonal cytopenias of undetermined significance (CCUS) are included in both fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification (WHO 2022) and International Consensus Classification (ICC). Recently three models were developed for prediction of myeloid neoplasms risk and clinical trials are initiated to investigate potential treatments for CHIP and CCUS. Challenges in diagnosis and therapeutic intervention of CHIP and CCUS were discussed.

Purpose Of Review: Sarcopenia and frailty are common conditions, associated with worse clinical outcomes during critical illness. Recent studies on sarcopenia and frailty in ICU patients are presented in this review, aiming to identify accurate diagnostic tools, investigate the effects on clinical and functional outcomes, and propose possible effective interventions.
Recent Findings: The recent change of the sarcopenia definition underlines the importance of muscle strength over mass, this is however challenging to assess in ICU patients.

Importance: Peripheral (blood-based) biomarkers for psychiatric illness could benefit diagnosis and treatment, but research to date has typically been low throughput, and traditional case-control studies are subject to potential confounds of treatment and other exposures. Large-scale 2-sample mendelian randomization (MR) can examine the potentially causal impact of circulating proteins on neuropsychiatric phenotypes without these confounds.
Objective: To identify circulating proteins associated with risk for schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BD), and major depressive disorder (MDD) as well as cognitive task performance (CTP).

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common musculoskeletal disease globally and is the main reason for the chronic pain and disability in people over sixty-five worldwide. Degradation of the articular cartilage, synovial inflammation and osteophyte formation are widely acknowledged as the primary pathological manifestations of OA. OA affects more than 300 million people all over the world, bringing extremely large socioeconomic burden.

Objective: To evaluate the significance of genetic testing in neonatal- and infantile-onset genetic epilepsies (NIGEP) for enhanced molecular diagnosis with management implications.
Methods: A single-center cohort of 128 patients with NIGEP (aged 0-36 months) from 2010 to 2022 was retrospectively assessed. The diagnostic utility of genetic testing, including next-generation sequencing (NGS) and chromosome-based approaches, was surveyed to determine their impact on antiseizure medication adjustments and precision medicine.

A 9-year-old mixed breed cat with a history of recurrent ulcerated skin lesions was diagnosed with nocardiosis. Three months after initiating potentiated sulfonamide treatment, the cat developed goitrous hypothyroidism, characterized by palpable enlargement of both thyroid lobes, low serum concentrations of total thyroxine (T4) and free thyroxine (fT4), and high serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration. Thyroid scintigraphy identified symmetrical enlargement of both thyroid lobes, with increased radionuclide (Tc-pertechnetate) uptake.
