Hydroxychloroquine Associated With Lower Glomerular Filtration Rate Decline in Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) protects kidney function in lupus nephritis (LN) by preventing flares, yet some cohort studies show no significant benefit in kidney function with HCQ. Clarifying these conflicting findings by showing early and long‐term benefits of HCQ on kidney function preservation is critical.

MYCOPHENOLATE MOFETIL TREATMENT REDUCES THE RISK OF TREATMENT ESCALATION DUE TO VASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN LIMITED CUTANEOUS SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS: EMULATION OF A TARGET TRIAL FROM ITALIAN RHEUMATOLOGY SOCIETY SPRING REGISTRY

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon due to the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of the vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Targeting the Mapk13‐Tcf1‐Slc7a5 Axis via One‐Carbon Metabolic Regulation to Prevent Chronic Allograft Vasculopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study emphasizes the role of the Mapk13‐Tcf1‐Slc7a5‐methionine metabolism axis in stem‐like CD4+ T cells. Moreover, it uncovers the mechanism through which limiting one‐carbon metabolism in CD4+ stem‐like T cells suppresses the tide of chronic allograft vasculopathy, offering potential targets to promote long‐term graft survival.

Preoperative Aortic Calcification Volume Predicts Postoperative Complications in Nonpancreatic Cancer Patients Undergoing Pancreaticoduodenectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Postoperative complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remain high, particularly in patients with soft pancreatic texture. Abdominal aortic calcification volume (AACV), a surrogate marker of systemic arteriosclerosis, has been associated with increased surgical risk in lower gastrointestinal procedures ...
