Although there are no established aetiological factors, non‐smokers with a family history of cancer have an increased risk of lung cancer, implying host genetic factors in lung cancer susceptibility. We sought to identify, in a cohort of 75 patients recruited before lung lobectomy,

Mechanisms and therapeutic potential of disulphidptosis in cancer
SLC7A11 plays a pivotal role in tumour development by facilitating cystine import to enhance glutathione synthesis and counteract oxidative stress. Disulphidptosis, an emerging form of cell death observed in cells with high expression of SLC7A11 under glucose deprivation, is regulated through reduction–oxidation reactions and disulphide bond formation.

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common initial presentation of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in children occurring in up to 40% of cases. DKA can also be associated with severe complications, including nephrolithiasis. We present the case of a 12 years and 8‐month‐old boy who developed acute kidney injury (AKI) secondary to bilateral urinary ...
