Laboratory of Multidisciplinary Research and Biomedical Innovation, Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero, Chilpancingo, Guerrero, Mexico. Electronic address:
Aim: The soluble scavenger receptor differentiation antigen 163 (sCD163), a monocyte/macrophage activation marker, is related to cardiovascular mortality in the general population. This study aimed to evaluate their relationship between serum levels of sCD163 with cardiovascular risk indicators in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on 80 women diagnosed with RA.
Which low urgent triaged febrile children are suitable for a fast track? An observational European study.

Erasmus MC Sophia Children's Hospital, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
Article Synopsis
- * Using data from 12 European EDs, researchers analyzed presenting symptoms and management of febrile children under 18, identifying those suitable for a fast track system based on simplicity and minimal resource use.
- * Findings revealed that respiratory symptoms were the most common, while neurological patients utilized more imaging and had higher admission rates, and gastrointestinal patients underwent more lab tests, indicating varying needs among the different symptom groups.

Laboratorio de Investigación en Microbiología. Facultad de Ciencias Químico Biológicas, Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero, México. Av. Lázaro Cárdenas S/N, Ciudad Universitaria Sur Col. Haciendita, C. P. 39090, Chilpancingo, Guerrero, México.
Background: The single nucleotide polymorphisms in the TLR4 gene can decrease or increase the response to lipopolysaccharide, increasing the susceptibility to inflammatory diseases, affecting the expression or receptor function by inducing a low-grade chronic inflammatory response.
Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the association of SNPs - 2570 A > G (rs2737190), - 2081 G > A (rs10983755), 896 A > G (rs 4986790), and 1196 C > T (rs4986791) of the TLR4 gene with obesity and metabolic alterations in the young population.
Results: In this study, it was found that the carriers of the heterozygous genotype of the SNPs - 2081 G > A, 896 A > G, and 1196 C > T confer a higher risk of developing obesity (OR = 3.

Hôpital Saint Antoine, Paris, France.
Article Synopsis
- - POEMS syndrome is a rare disease linked to plasma cell issues, and autologous stem cell transplantation has been studied as an effective treatment option for it.
- - A study of 127 patients revealed that 90% were alive after a median follow-up of 48 months, with significant improvements in symptoms, particularly neurological ones, after undergoing the procedure.
- - Treatment results showed a 3-year progression-free survival rate of 84% and an overall survival rate of 94%, indicating the potential effectiveness of the transplantation approach for managing POEMS syndrome.
