Multi‐Omic Profiling Reveals Immune Cell Priming Signature Linked to Lupus Prognosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multiorgan disease with widespread immune dysregulation and significant unmet clinical need. Blood‐based gene expression studies have advanced our understanding of SLE pathogenesis but may overlook critical tissue‐specific mechanisms that drive disease heterogeneity and progression.

Evaluating and leveraging large language models in clinical pharmacology and therapeutics assessment: From exam takers to exam shapers

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims In medical education, the ability of large language models (LLMs) to match human performance raises questions about their potential as educational tools. This study evaluates LLMs' performance on Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics (CPT) exams, comparing their results to medical students and exploring their ability to identify poorly formulated

Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

The role of TGF-β and epithelial-to mesenchymal transition in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Transforming Growth Factor-beta (TGF-β) is a pro-sclerotic cytokine widely associated with the development of fibrosis in diabetic nephropathy. Central to the underlying pathology of tubulointerstitial fibrosis is epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition ...

Applying machine learning to pharmacovigilance data: A proof‐of‐concept study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Machine learning (ML) applications in pharmacovigilance remain limited and underexplored. Using data from the French National pharmacovigilance database (FNPV), this proof‐of‐concept study aimed to assess the feasibility of using a ML algorithm—eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost)—combined with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis, to ...
