A narrative literature review about alpha‐lipoic acid role in dry eye and ocular surface disease
Abstract Ocular surface diseases (OSD) include various conditions that affect the eye's surface, causing discomfort and pain. One such condition, dry eye disease (DED), is a multifactorial disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life, with prevalence rates ranging from 5% to 50% and higher incidence in women.

Treatment options for immune‐related adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors
Abstract The immunotherapy revolution with the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) started with the clinical use of the first ICI, ipilimumab, in 2011. Since then, the field of ICI therapy has rapidly expanded — with the FDA approval of 10 different ICI drugs so far and their incorporation into the therapeutic regimens of a range of malignancies.

Effects of HMG CoA reductase (HMGCR) deficiency on skeletal muscle development
Three skeletal muscle diseases are linked to HMGCR, a key enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. These diseases include a muscular dystrophy associated with pathogenic variants in the HMGCR gene, statin‐associated myopathy, and autoimmune anti‐HMGCR myopathy.

The molecular mechanisms of defensive‐grade organic acid biosynthesis in ground beetles
Formic acid and methacrylic acid are the primary defensive chemicals in the pygidial gland secretions of Platynus angustatus and Pterostichus moestus, respectively. Comparative transcriptomics suggests the folate cycle and valine catabolism may be involved in the biosynthesis of formic acid and methacrylic acid, respectively.

Two cases of neonatal hyperglycemia caused by a homozygous COQ9 stop‐gain variant
ABSTRACT Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a monogenic condition diagnosed <6 months of age with >40 genetic causes. International guidelines recommend referral for genetic testing immediately after diagnosis since the genetic result guides clinical management. We used next‐generation sequencing to identify a homozygous pathogenic variant, p.(Arg244*)
