An unusual case of intertrigo in an adult caused by purely cutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis [PDF]

, 2016
We report a case of persistent intertrigo in an adult, eventually diagnosed as cutaneous Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). It is known that LCH has a predilection for intertriginous areas, however purely cutaneous disease as in our case, is uncommon ...

Lifestyle Behaviors and Cardiotoxic Treatment Risks in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher doses of anthracyclines and heart‐relevant radiotherapy increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study assessed CVD and CVD risk factors among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) across cardiotoxic treatment risk groups and examined associations between lifestyle behaviors and treatment risks.

CD207‐Positive Dendritic Cells Promote Emphysema Through CD8+ T Cell Pathway in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.

Incidence patterns and temporal trends of childhood cancer in Germany, 1980–2019: Forty years of childhood cancer registration in Germany

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Childhood cancer ranks among the leading causes of disease‐related deaths in children in high‐income countries. Established risk factors, however, account for only a small proportion of incident childhood cancers. In this report, the authors present the first long‐term assessment of temporal trends in childhood cancer incidence rates in ...

Efficacy, safety, and relapse outcomes of MAPK inhibitors in pediatric Langerhans cell histiocytosis: A real‐world study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's new? Mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors are promising treatments for pediatric Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), a rare heterogeneous neoplasm that often affects multiple organ systems. Which MAPK inhibitors are most effective against LCH remains uncertain.
