Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a significant clinical expression of Sjögren's syndrome (SS). While SS-related dRTA is traditionally linked to impaired H-ATPase, we report a unique case demonstrating selectively decreased anion exchanger 1 (AE1) expression with preserved H-ATPase expression. A 16-year-old girl with SS presented with muscle weakness, difficulty in ambulation, and severe hypokalemia.

Copper-based pesticides are extensively used in agriculture, yet their impacts on beneficial insects remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate how cupric chloride exposure affects the gut microbiome of Bombyx mori, a model organism crucial for silk production. Using 16S rRNA sequencing, we analyzed the gut bacterial communities of fifth-instar silkworm larvae exposed to different concentrations of cupric chloride (0, 4, and 8 g/kg) in an artificial diet.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have dramatically improved the prognosis of patients with cancers. However, ICIs can provoke systemic toxicities, which are known as immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR)-like syndrome induced by ICI is one of the most common rheumatic irAEs.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of transvaginal ovarian drilling (TVOD) on IVF outcomes in subjects with clomiphene-resistant PCOS and a history of IVF failure.

Methods: Between 2008 and 2011, 19 subjects with sonographically PCOS and a history of failure to ovulate to high-dose clomiphene citrate were prospectively followed and underwent TVOD at a university hospital-based IVF program.

Results: In 15 subjects who underwent 30 fresh paired IVF cycles TVOD resulted in a significantly higher number of oocytes retrieved (7.

Cisplatin is a nephrotoxic agent able to damage renal function both in acute and chronic phases. Radiotherapy concomitant with cisplatin 100 mg/m given once every 3 weeks is the curative standard of care for locally advanced head and neck cancer. A prospective evaluation of a wide range of biochemical and anthropometrical parameters, handgrip strength, risk of malnutrition, visual analogue scale of appetite, and body composition was performed before, during, and after concomitant chemoradiotherapy in 60 consecutive patients affected by locally advanced head and neck cancer.
