About one out of two diabetic patients develop diabetic neuropathy (DN), of these 20% experience neuropathic pain (NP) leading to individual, social, and health-economic burden. Risk factors for NP are largely unknown; however, premature aging was recently associated with several chronic pain disorders. DNA methylation-based biological age (DNAm) is associated with disease risk, morbidity, and mortality in different clinical settings.

Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is commonly used in ILD evaluation since it allows the sampling of the lower respiratory tract. The prognostic value of BAL cell counts in ILD is unknown.

Small bowel cancer is very rare; although the incidence of adenocarcinoma and other anatomopathological forms has increased recently, the diagnosis and treatment of this disease are still debatable because of the clinical heterogeneity and the absence of studies including a large number of patients. We performed a retrospective study over 10 years in which we analyzed the clinical, imaging, and anatomopathological data of 46 patients hospitalized in a surgery clinic and diagnosed with small bowel cancer (duodenum, jejunum, and ileum). After clinical assessment of these patients, including complications (occlusion, bleeding, and perforation), the CT scan established the diagnosis in over 90% of the cases of the complicated form of the disease.
