A report of three cases of untreated Graves’ disease associated with pancytopenia in Malaysia
Generally, clinical presentations of Graves’ disease range from asymptomatic disease to overt symptomatic hyperthyroidism with heat intolerance, tremor, palpitation, weight loss, and increased appetite. However, atypical presentation of Graves’ disease

Correlation-based Discovery of Disease Patterns for Syndromic Surveillance [PDF]
Early outbreak detection is a key aspect in the containment of infectious diseases, as it enables the identification and isolation of infected individuals before the disease can spread to a larger population. Instead of detecting unexpected increases of infections by monitoring confirmed cases, syndromic surveillance aims at the detection of cases with

Transient neonatal hyperthyroidism [PDF]
Graves’ disease is the main cause of hyperthyroidism in women of childbearing age. It occurs by the presence of serum immunoglobulins which stimulate the thyrotropin receptor (TRAbs) and may cross the placenta.

Tissue eosinophilia and eosinophil degranulation in Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis. [PDF]
The etiology of Riedel's invasive fibrous thyroiditis (IFT) has remained obscure. This rare disorder has been confused in the past with the more common fibrous variant of Hashimoto's disease.

This review highlights recent advances in engineering artificial antigen‐presenting cells (aAPCs) as alternatives to dendritic cells for T cell expansion. Key design principles inspired by the immunological synapse are discussed, with emphasis on strategies for polyclonal and antigen‐specific T cell expansion.

Time series analysis of Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to study the (clinical) time-series data of three diseases with complex dynamics: Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. For this purpose, first all of the time series data are embedded in a vector space of suitable dimension and then the correlation dimension of the above mentioned ...

Analysis of the human diseasome reveals phenotype modules across common, genetic, and infectious diseases [PDF]
Phenotypes are the observable characteristics of an organism arising from its response to the environment. Phenotypes associated with engineered and natural genetic variation are widely recorded using phenotype ontologies in model organisms, as are signs and symptoms of human Mendelian diseases in databases such as OMIM and Orphanet.

Environmental toxicity influences disease spread in consumer population [PDF]
The study of infectious disease has been of interest to ecologists since long. The initiation of epidemic and the long term disease dynamics are largely influenced by the nature of the underlying consumer (host)-resource dynamics. Ecological traits of such systems may be often modulated by toxins released in the environment due to ongoing anthropogenic

Managing paediatric Graves’ disease [PDF]
Graves’ disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism in children. Anti-thyroid drug treatment with carbimazole or its active metabolite methimazole is offered as first line initial treatment but it induces remission in only 30%of children ...
