Interleukin‐17A, Interleukin‐8, and Platelet Count Are Associated With Baseline Coronary Artery Lesions in Children With Kawasaki Disease: A Retrospective Exploratory Cohort Study

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Early risk stratification for coronary artery lesions in Kawasaki disease ABSTRACT Background Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute childhood vasculitis in which coronary artery lesions (CALs) determine long‐term cardiovascular risk. We evaluated a focused pre‐IVIG biomarker profile in relation to baseline Z‐score‐defined coronary involvement. Objective To

Transcranial Color‐Coded Duplex Sonography in Large‐Vessel Vasculitis Compatible With Takayasu Arteritis Presenting Intracranial Involvement and Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia: A Case Report

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 54, Issue 7, Page 1710-1716, September 2026.
This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

Investigating the Short‐Term Changes of the Electrocardiogram Indicators During Hospitalization in Patients With COVID‐19 Following the Use of Tocilizumab

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 5, September 2026.
Tocilizumab, an IL‐6 inhibitor used in severe COVID‐19, may have cardiovascular effects. This study examined short‐term electrocardiographic (ECG) changes 24 h before versus 24 h after tocilizumab injection in PCR‐positive COVID‐19 patients. Retrospective study of 33 ICU‐admitted COVID‐19 patients (36.4% male, age 37–79 years). ECG parameters including

The impact of systemic long‐term medications for the development of age‐related macular degeneration

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 674-681, September 2026.
Abstract Purpose Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of central vision loss in the elderly; however, the systemic factors that modulate its incidence and progression remain unclear. We sought to determine whether long‐term use of systemic medications, including diabetes and antithrombotic medications, corticosteroids and ...

Ultrasound, PET/CT or temporal artery biopsy for giant cell arteritis? A prospective diagnostic accuracy study (the GAME‐study)

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page e695-e708, September 2026.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the diagnostic performance of ultrasound, 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F]fluoro‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (2‐[18F]FDG PET/CT) and temporal artery biopsy (TAB) in giant cell arteritis (GCA). Methods This was a prospective single‐centre diagnostic accuracy study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05248906).
