Associations of Serum CIRP and CXCL5 With Prognosis and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Pediatric Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 20, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study investigated serum levels of cold‐inducible RNA‐binding protein (CIRP) and C‐X‐C motif chemokine ligand 5 (CXCL5) in 485 children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. Elevated levels of both biomarkers were independently associated with poor prognosis and positively correlated with neutrophil extracellular trap markers, suggesting their ...

Obstructive Jaundice due to a Periportal Tuberculous Mass Complicated by Anti‐Tuberculous Drug‐Induced Liver Injury: A Case Report From a Low‐Resource Setting

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Periportal tuberculous lymphadenitis with obstructive jaundice is rare and may mimic malignancy. We report a case of obstructive jaundice caused by a periportal tuberculous mass confirmed by fine‐needle aspiration and GeneXpert. Treatment was complicated by anti‐tuberculous drug‐induced liver injury.

ABSTRACT Spinal tuberculosis may present atypically with multifocal cold abscesses without neurological deficit or constitutional symptoms. Concurrent lumbosacral paraspinal, retropharyngeal, and wrist abscesses, though rare, should raise suspicion for tuberculosis, and early diagnosis with MRI and GeneXpert enables effective minimally invasive ...
