ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Dissociation of echogenicity of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) and flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) on neuromuscular ultrasound has been reported to be a useful sign to differentiate inclusion body myositis (IBM) from more common disease mimics, but it is not clear that this finding is pathognomonic of IBM. Our study aimed to

Nanoformulated Diacerein Alleviates Hyperlipidemia via Gut Microbiota Modulation In Vivo
A nanoformulation of diacerein (Nano‐DIA) was fabricated with carboxymethyl cellulose, achieving enhanced solubility and rapid dissolution for alternative anti‐hyperlipidemia therapeutics. Mechanistic studies revealed its in vivo lipid‐lowering efficacy is through metabolite‐mediated and microbiota‐dependent manner, highlighting its dual action on host

Proteomic Profiling of Myofiber Repair Annexins and Their Role in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Myofiber regeneration and membrane repair play crucial roles in maintaining the continuous physiological functioning of the neuromuscular system. A swift and efficient repair mechanism enables the rapid restoration of sarcolemmal integrity following cellular impairment in damaged skeletal muscles.

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

Frequency and risk factors for tail injuries in UK dogs under primary veterinary care
Abstract Background Tail injuries in dogs can severely impact welfare and pose clinical challenges. This study aimed to describe the annual incidence and clinical management of tail injury in UK dogs under primary care and identify risk factors. Methods A nested case‒control design was used within a cohort of dogs under primary care in the UK in 2019 ...
