Metastatic Spine Disease Alters Vertebral Load‐To‐Strength Ratios in Cancer Patients Compared to Healthy Individuals

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study investigated the effect of spinal bone metastasis (BM) on the biomechanical environment of the spine through estimates of load, strength, and the load‐to‐strength ratio (LSR). Our study suggests that task‐specific differences related to cancer, lesion type, and vertebral location differentially affect the biomechanical environment of the ...

Remodeling the Inflammatory Microenvironment: Nanomaterial‐Based Targeted Strategies for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Lupus Nephritis

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2026.
Current treatments for severe lupus nephritis are limited by side effects due to poor drug targeting. This review explores how smart nanomaterials—like liposomes and biomimetic carriers—can precisely deliver drugs to overactive immune cells and the kidneys. These nanotherapeutics enhance efficacy, reduce toxicity, and enable combination strategies. The

Benign Adrenal Adenomas Are Associated With Reduced Prevalence of Hospitalised Patients With COVID‐19

Clinical Endocrinology, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 207-214, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Adrenal incidentalomas (AI) are commonly found on imaging done for indications other than to assess the adrenal glands. Prevalence increases with age and is around 10% in people over 80 years. The majority of AIs are benign adenomas, with 20%−50% exhibiting mild autonomous cortisol secretion (MACS).
