Atypical Guillain‐Barré Syndrome Preceding Icteric Hepatitis A: A Diagnostic Challenge—A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute immune‐mediated neuropathy typically triggered by infections. Rarely, it may precede acute hepatitis A (HAV), creating diagnostic challenges. We report a 32‐year‐old male presenting with ascending weakness and tingling in limbs without initial hepatic symptoms.

Challenge of liver disease in systemic lupus erythematosus: Clues for diagnosis and hints for pathogenesis [PDF]

, 2014
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) encompass a broad spectrum of liver diseases. We propose here to classify them as follows: (1) immunological comorbilities (overlap syndromes); (2) non-immunological comorbilities associated to SLE; and (3) a putative ...

RNA‐Based Therapies for Inherited Metabolic Disorders

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) are a diverse and complex group of genetic conditions resulting from deficiencies in enzymes, transporters, or cofactors. These deficiencies lead to metabolic dysfunction and severe clinical consequences. Despite significant progress in understanding their molecular basis, treatment options remain limited ...
