A Review on Current Challenges and Knowledge Gaps in Artificial Stone Silicosis
ABSTRACT Background The global emergence of artificial stone (AS) silicosis represents a critical occupational health challenge. The aim of this systematic review is to provide an overview of the clinical, functional, radiological, and occupational characteristics of patients affected by AS silicosis at the time of diagnosis, and to identify current ...

ABSTRACT Dengue virus (DENV) poses a serious global health challenge, particularly in cases of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Patients with preexisting mitochondrial disorders may be at increased risk for complications due to the specific impact of DENV on mitochondrial‐dependent cellular processes and immune function.

Serum fibrinogen is not elevated in patients with myasthenia gravis
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune, autoantibody-mediated disease characterized by fatigable weakness of skeletal muscles. MG is a heterogeneous disease that currently lacks a robust biomarker for diagnosing all subtypes.

The differences of fibrinogen levels in various types of hemorrhagic transformations
IntroductionHemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a serious complication that can occur spontaneously after an acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or after a thrombolytic/mechanical thrombectomy.

Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Block Fibrinolysis in Ischemic Stroke
Objectives Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) failure in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is frequent, but its causes remain elusive. We investigated whether biologically relevant intrathrombus concentrations of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) were achieved in failed IVT and whether neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contributed to this therapeutic ...

Inhibition of MEKK3 Prevents Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Progression Via Restoring Endothelial Integrity and Restricting Microglial Activation [PDF]
In this study, we demonstrate that aberrant MEKK3 signaling in endothelial cells and microglia drives the progression of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs). Furthermore, we identify DPDH as a potent small‐molecule MEKK3 inhibitor with substantial therapeutic potential for CCM treatment.

Rationale: Fibrinogen depletion happens soon after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for acute ischemic stroke, in relation to the suboptimal affinity of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) to thrombus fibrin.
