A Multifaceted Interplay Among Hemophagocytosis, Interleukin‐18, and Type I Interferon Distinguishes Still Disease From Other Autoinflammatory Diseases

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The unknown pathophysiology and the lack of specific features for systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis and adult‐onset Still disease (collectively known as Still disease; SD) delay diagnosis and appropriate treatment. The goal of this study was to identify features and mechanisms that distinguish SD from other systemic autoinflammatory ...

Chronic Brucella infection associated with amyloid light chain cardiac amyloidosis: a case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundAmyloidosis is a rare group of diseases characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils. The most common types are amyloid light chain (AL) and transthyretin (ATTR), while serum amyloid A (AA) type is relatively rare.

Decoding RNA regulation: Challenges and opportunities for RNA‐based therapies in Europe

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract RNA‐based medicinal products represent a promising frontier in personalised medicine, offering sequence‐specific disease targeting at various molecular levels, yet their clinical translation in the European Union (EU) may be hindered by regulatory uncertainty around definitions and evidence requirements; this study therefore aims to identify ...

An unusual case of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, multiple myeloma and cardiac amyloidosis

open access: yesJournal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2017
Light chain amyloidosis has very rarely been reported in association with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We reported on a 76-years-old female who presented with simultaneous kappa-restricted chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and a lambda-restricted

Systemic amyloidosis in England: an epidemiological study.

open access: yes, 2013
Epidemiological studies of systemic amyloidosis are scarce and the burden of disease in England has not previously been estimated. In 1999, the National Health Service commissioned the National Amyloidosis Centre (NAC) to provide a national clinical ...

Impact of empiric potassium supplementation on mortality, sudden cardiac arrest and stroke in furosemide initiators

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim A prior non‐randomized study suggests that potassium supplementation may improve survival among furosemide initiators, and a randomized trial suggests that salt substitutes containing potassium might lower stroke risk. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using health‐care data to confirm or refute these associations among new users of ...

Diagnosing Smoldering Multiple Myeloma and Light Chain Amyloidosis in the Setting of Severe Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy and Extracardiac Sarcoidosis

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
Light chain (AL) amyloidosis involves deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain-derived amyloid fibrils, whereas ATTR amyloidosis involves deposition of insoluble antiparallel beta-pleated protein within tissues, leading to organ-specific ...

Recent advances in understanding and treating immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2018
Immunoglobulin (Ig) light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a clonal plasma cell disorder characterized by misfolded Ig light chain deposition in vital organs of the body, resulting in proteotoxicity and organ dysfunction.

Monoclonal IgM-related AL amyloidosis

open access: yes, 2016
Monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM)-related light chain (AL) amyloidosis, which accounts for 5%–7% of all AL amyloidosis cases, is a distinct clinical entity that poses specific challenges to clinicians.
