Fractal Anatomy of Human Organs: A Narrative Review of Structure, Function, and Clinical Perspectives

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 273-280, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Fractal geometry describes complex, self‐similar patterns that repeat across spatial scales and is increasingly recognized as relevant in anatomical research. Indeed, the fractal organization is consistently observed in respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, nervous, renal, hepatic, and dermatological systems.

Nailfold Capillaroscopy in Children

Nailfold capillaroscopy allows non-invasive assessment of the finger microvasculature. At the nailfold, capillaries run parallel rather than perpendicular to the skin surface, allowing their structure to be visualised under magnification.

Development of a core domain set for nailfold capillaroscopy reporting.

The peripheral microangiopathy may be well evaluated and studied by nailfold capillaroscopy (NFC) which is a safe and non-invasive technique. NFC has been reported to have both diagnostic and prognostic values in patients presenting with Raynaud's ...

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, Volume 6, Issue 1, Page 16-38, March 2026.
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

Clinical profiles associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease in antisynthetase syndrome: A multicentric cohort study (TYPASS study)

Journal of Internal Medicine, Volume 299, Issue 3, Page 365-380, March 2026.
Abstract Objectives To assess factors associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD) (RP‐ILD) at time of ILD diagnosis in a multicentric retrospective cohort study of antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS). We used a complementary unsupervised approach, hierarchical clustering, to delineate distinct phenotypes among ASyS patients with ILD.

Clinical Characteristics and Evolution of Interstitial Lung Disease in Subtypes of Idiopathic Inflammatory Myositis With Prevalent Lung Manifestation: A Retrospective Analysis

ACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Objective Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is common in idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM), particularly in antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS), antimelanoma differentiation‐associated protein 5 (anti‐MDA5) syndrome, and scleromyositis. ILD can progress despite resolution of extrapulmonary symptoms, termed postmyopathic progressive pulmonary fibrosis ...
