Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to examine the clinical and immune system characteristics of patients with anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS) who also have rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared to those without RA.
  • - Out of 104 ASS patients with arthritis, 23.1% were diagnosed with RA and displayed notable differences such as higher rates of rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease, more tender and swollen joints, and increased bone erosion compared to the non-RA group.
  • - The overlap group (ASS with RA) also had significantly altered immune cell profiles, including decreased regulatory T cells and B cells, as well as higher levels of certain inflammatory markers, leading to a lower rate of complete clinical response.

Objectives: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a widely used method for treating dengue fever in China. TCM improves the symptoms of patients with dengue, but there is no standard TCM prescription for dengue fever. This real-world study aimed to evaluate the effects of Chai-Shi-Jie-Du (CSJD) granules for the treatment of dengue fever and the underlying mechanisms.

Introduction: Doxorubicin (Dox) is an effective anticancer agent; however, its cardiotoxicity remains a challenge. Dysfunction of intracellular calcium ion (Ca) is implicated in the process of Dox-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Although store-operated Ca entry (SOCE) is suggested to be responsible for Ca entry in cardiomyocytes, the direct role of store-operated Ca channels in Dox-related cardiomyocyte apoptosis is unknown.

Background The 2019 Bosniak classification (version 2019) of cystic renal masses (CRMs) provides a systematic update to the currently used 2005 Bosniak classification (version 2005). Further validation is required before widespread application. Purpose To evaluate the interobserver agreement of MRI criteria, the impact of readers' experience, and the diagnostic performance between version 2019 and version 2005.

Purpose: Forkhead box f1 (FoxF1), a transcription factor, was implicated in lung development. However, the molecular mechanism of FoxF1 in lung injury, specifically in injury caused by paraquat (PQ), one of the most frequently used herbicides, is unknown. Accordingly, we performed this study to investigate whether FoxF1 attenuates PQ-induced lung injury and to determine the possible mechanism.
