Refractory Relapsing–Remitting Adult‐Onset Still's Disease in an Adolescent Female: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare systemic autoinflammatory condition that presents with symptoms such as episodic fevers, a transient rash, inflammatory arthritis, and significant systemic inflammation. Diseases that have a relapsing–remitting clinical course can be challenging to diagnose and treat. We present a case of an 18 year

Cardiac Tamponade Secondary to Lupus Pericarditis Initially Misdiagnosed as Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can closely mimic rheumatoid arthritis, leading to diagnostic delays. In patients with atypical inflammatory arthritis, early echocardiographic evaluation is vital to detect rare but life‐threatening complications like cardiac tamponade, ensuring prompt transition from RA‐directed therapy to life‐saving ...

Outcomes in Recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis Post‐Kidney Transplantation Treated With Therapeutic Plasma Exchange: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Journal of Clinical Apheresis, Volume 41, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Recurrence of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) following kidney transplantation remains a significant cause of allograft loss. Much remains unknown about the efficacy of apheresis treatments and the factors that determine favorable treatment outcomes.

Improving Linkage to the HCV Care Cascade in Nonspecialist Settings: Evaluation of the Performance and Triage Utility of the Elecsys HCV Duo Assay in Japan

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 15, August 2026.
In nonspecialist departments, most anti‐HCV–positive individuals do not proceed to RNA testing. The Elecsys HCV Duo assay simultaneously detects anti‐HCV antibodies and core antigen from a single blood draw and preferentially identifies patients with clinically meaningful viral loads.

Soluble B7‐H6 as a Novel Diagnostic Biomarker for Post‐Hepatitis B Cirrhosis: A Clinical Value Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 15, August 2026.
This study investigates the potential of soluble B7‐H6 (sB7‐H6) as a novel diagnostic biomarker for post‐hepatitis B cirrhosis. The infographic visually presents the following key points: (1) Liver Disease Progression: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) progresses to liver cirrhosis (LC), with serum sB7‐H6 levels increasing stepwise as the disease advances. (2)

Bioimpedance Analysis to Predict Clinical Outcomes of Liver Cirrhosis in a Prospective Cohort Study

JGH Open, Volume 10, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Bioimpedance analysis (BIA) is a non‐invasive method for estimating body composition, which plays a role in the development of cirrhosis. We investigated if BIA measures were associated with cirrhosis complications. Methods We analyzed data from 566 participants in a prospective cohort study of cirrhosis patients from ...

HCV‐Specific T‐Cell Recovery After a Year of SVR Following DAA Therapy

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Direct‐acting antiviral (DAA) drugs lead to sustained virologic response (SVR) in almost all treated patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Despite this success, the long‐term effects of HCV clearance by DAA therapy on T‐cell‐mediated antiviral immunity remain unclear, particularly concerning the restoration of immune ...

Investigation of PDCD1 Gene Polymorphisms and Haplotypes in COVID‐19 Severity and Outcome in a Brazilian Population

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT COVID‐19 severity and survival are influenced by the host immune response to SARS‐CoV‐2. Programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1), a key immune checkpoint, regulates T‐cell activation and antiviral immune balance. Since genetic variability can modulate these responses, we investigated whether the PDCD1 polymorphisms rs11568821 C > T, rs2227982 G > A ...
