A Case Study and Review of the Literature on IgA Nephropathy in Crohn's Disease
ABSTRACT IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequently reported glomerular disease associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly Crohn's disease (CD), although pediatric cases remain rare. We report IgAN in a 16‐year‐old male with CD following intestinal surgery and during long‐term infliximab therapy, with renal impairment occurring ...

Leveraging extracellular vesicle biology for novel tests and therapeutics for kidney fibrosis
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are bilipid membrane‐encased nanoparticles that play critical roles as cell‐to‐cell messengers and waste management mechanisms. EVs cargos can be leveraged as biomarkers to develop minimally invasive tests for kidney fibrosis and guide personalised mechanism‐driven care.

Cryptococcid Sweet Syndrome in the Setting of Hydralazine‐Induced ANCA Vasculitis: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, also known as Sweet syndrome, is an inflammatory skin condition characterized by the rapid onset of painful, erythematous plaques or nodules with neutrophilic infiltrate on histology. Rarely, acellular bodies surrounded by vacuolated spaces have been noted within the neutrophilic infiltrate, mimicking ...
