Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Precision immunomodulation for pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in intensive care

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
This review presents a bedside framework for recognizing pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and cytokine storm, stabilizing organ dysfunction, identifying the underlying phenotype, selecting targeted immunomodulation, considering extracorporeal adjuncts, and reassessing response within 24–72 h. ABSTRACT Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)

Preclinical Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of a Novel Controlled‐Expansion ePTFE‐Covered TIPS Stent in a Swine Model

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This preclinical study evaluated a novel controlled‐expansion expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE)‐covered transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) stent in 11 swine, demonstrating 100% technical success, excellent deployability, and durable 6‐month angiographic patency without thrombosis, migration, fracture, or device‐related toxicity.

Galactosaemia: an unusual cause of chronic bilirubin encephalopathy [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2015
Galactosaemia is a disorder of galactose metabolism in which raised levels of galactose and galactose-1-phosphate damage various organs. Although galactosaemia is a common metabolic liver disease in childhood, it is a rare cause of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia requiring intervention.

Pruritus Is Frequent and Persistent and Impacts Quality of Life Among Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Among 200 patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis, 38% reported moderate to severe pruritus in the past 6 months. During 6 months of follow up, pruritus severity fluctuated significantly. Pruritus severity was linked to worse colitis activity and lower quality of life.
