ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to investigate the epidemiological trends, age‐ and sex‐related patterns, and clinical and immunological characteristics of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection among febrile children. Methods We analyzed EBV DNA data from 9151 febrile children and serological antibody profiles from 6934 cases.

Immunoglobulin G Levels in Yemeni Preterm Newborns: Infant Factors Predominate
ABSTRACT Background IgG levels in preterm infants play a crucial role in response to infection and inflammation. Infectious disease burden in the low‐income countries, such as Yemen, exacerbates the problem. The preterm infant's IgG sources are either maternal or fetal immune system.

TNF Pathway‐Mediated Tolerogenic T‐Cell Trajectory Driven by Allergen Immunotherapy
The study shows that AIT re‐establishes local immune equilibrium by restoring Th17/Treg balance, while circulating Th17 cells remain functionally impaired. The transition from pro‐inflammatory Th17 to regulatory T cell states during AIT identifies Tr17 cells as an intermediate cell population.

Repurposing Purine Analog Antivirals to Modulate Serum Uric Acid: Evidence From Real‐World Data
ABSTRACT Xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors remain the standard pharmacologic therapy for hyperuricemia. However, additional enzymatic components of the purine degradation pathway may contribute to uric acid synthesis. Guanine deaminase (GD) catalyzes the conversion of guanine to xanthine, providing substrate for downstream oxidation by XO.
