Functional immune profiling reveals CD4+ T cell dysregulation in coeliac disease

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
The T cell momentum assay quantifies division, survival and activation decay to reveal intrinsic CD4+ programming defects marked by prolonged activation and impaired feedback control in coeliac disease. This scalable platform provides a functional screen for early T cell dysregulation across autoimmune and immune‐mediated diseases.

Acute pain transfusion reaction in a patient with thalassemia: In‐depth characterization of short‐ and long‐term phenotypes

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute pain transfusion reaction (APTR) is a rare, under‐recognized condition of unknown etiology. It can cause significant distress in recipients, necessitating symptomatic management and, occasionally, hospitalization. Study Design and Methods Here, we present an APTR event in an adult subject with transfusion‐dependent thalassemia
