Development and validation of BCG vaccine‐induced novel granulomatous liver injury preclinical animal model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The study successfully developed and validated a granulomatous liver injury model using a high‐dose BCG vaccine, simulating hepatic tuberculosis and autoimmune granulomatous liver diseases. Pharmacokinetic analysis examined the metabolic behavior of first‐line antitubercular drugs (isoniazid and rifampicin) and their main metabolites under conditions ...

Markers for internal neoplasia in the horse

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 132-143, January 2023., 2023
The measurement of tumour markers in horses should be performed only in risk groups or in patients with suspicious clinical/laboratory findings (paraneoplastic syndromes). The results should be interpreted with caution as many factors (e.g., young age, pregnancy and inflammation) affect their concentration or activity.

Partial differential equation about the prevalence of a chronic disease in the presence of duration dependency [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
The illness-death model of a chronic disease consists of the states 'Normal', 'Disease' and 'Death'. In general, the transition rates between the states depend on three time scales: calendar time, age and duration of the chronic disease. Previous works have shown that the age-specific prevalence of the chronic disease can be described by differential ...

Proteomic Profiling of the Large‐Vessel Vasculitis Spectrum Identifying Shared Signatures of Innate Immune Activation and Stromal Remodeling

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Takayasu arteritis (TAK) and giant cell arteritis (GCA), the most common forms of large‐vessel vasculitis (LVV), can result in serious morbidity. Understanding the molecular basis of LVV should aid in developing better biomarkers and treatments. Methods Plasma proteomic profiling of 184 proteins was performed in two cohorts. Cohort 1 included
