Factors Associated With Fibromyalgia Diagnosis Among People Meeting Criteria: Results From UK Biobank

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The diagnosis of fibromyalgia (FM) is challenging due to the absence of definitive biomarkers, numerous overlapping comorbidities, and its reliance on patient‐reported symptoms. Discrepancies between diagnostic criteria and clinical practice imply the possibility of diagnostic biases, complicating timely and accurate identification.

Extracellular vesicles derived from induced pluripotent stem cells mediate anti-inflammatory effects in primary human macrophages

open access: yesScientific Reports
Extracellular vesicles derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC EVs) have immunoregulatory potential with the ability to alter the macrophage phenotype. Modulating the macrophage phenotype towards an anti-inflammatory, pro-resolving state may be
