Alu Overexpression Leads to an Increased Double‐stranded RNA Signature in Dermatomyositis
Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.Objective Dermatomyositis is an autoimmune condition characterized by a high interferon signature of unknown etiology. Because coding sequences constitute <1.2% of our genomes, there is a need to explore the role of the non‐coding genome in disease pathogenesis.

Posttranslational Modification of HLA-DQ Binding Islet Autoantigens in Type 1 Diabetes
Diabetes, 2013 Posttranslational modification (PTM) of islet autoantigens can cause lack of central tolerance in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Tissue transglutaminase (tTG), involved in PTM of gluten antigens in celiac disease, creates negatively charged peptides favored by ...

Factors Affecting Nasal Discharge in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Patients
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study aimed to identify patient‐specific factors influencing the severity of nasal drainage in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients. It found that postnasal discharge (PND) was the most severe symptom, with female gender, CRS without nasal polyps, prior endoscopic sinus surgery, and allergies significantly associated with severe PND.
