ABSTRACT Chondrocalcinosis (CCAL), also known as calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease (CPPDD), is a frequent multifactorial condition in the elderly, but there are two rare autosomal dominant Mendelian forms, CCAL1 (OMIM %600668) and CCAL2. Only three families with molecularly proven CCAL1 have been reported.

Intracellular and extracellular CPPD crystals are a regular feature in synovial fluid from uninflamed joints of patients with CPPD related arthropathy [PDF]
To determine whether calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals can be found in the synovial fluid of non-inflamed joints in patients with CPPD related arthropathy; if so, to determine whether they interact with cells and produce subclinical inflammation in this setting.74 synovial fluid samples were obtained from non-inflamed knees of 74 patients

ABSTRACT Protein–receptor interactions play a critical role in viral entry and pathogenesis. While ACE2 is the primary receptor for SARS‐CoV, the role of DPP4 as potential coreceptor remains underexplored. This study investigates the binding mechanisms and dissociation dynamics of the SARS‐CoV/DPP4, SARS‐CoV/ACE2 and MERS‐CoV/DPP4 complexes using ...

Gout and NLRP3 Inflammasome Biology
This review describes the three broad stages of acute inflammation in the context of gout: initiation, leucocyte mobilization, and self‐resolution. A typical case of a gout flare is presented. The role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in acute monosodium urate crystal–induced inflammation is reviewed in detail.

Cervical Discitis in a 20‐Year‐Old Female: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Spondylodiscitis, particularly cervical discitis, is a rare infectious condition that can result in severe complications if untreated. This report highlights the rarity of this condition in our female patient's age group and its occurrence in the cervical region in the absence of underlying medical issues. Our article presents a unique case of
