Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 2675-2712, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation.

Accuracy of next‐generation wireless skin temperature sensors during exercise–heat stress

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 8, Page 3463-3479, 1 August 2026.
Abstract Skin temperature is fundamental in characterising human thermoregulatory responses. Wired probes, although accurate, restrict movement and are impractical outside laboratory settings. The iButton (DS1922L; Maxim Integrated, USA) is a widely used wireless alternative but does not meet the precision recommended by ISO 9886 and permits only ...

Silent Migration for Three Decades, Intravesical and Sigmoid Colon Perforation by a Forgotten IUCD: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT IUCD migration can cause severe complications like bladder and sigmoid perforation, even decades post‐insertion. Regular follow‐up, timely imaging, and thorough patient education are critical for early detection and multidisciplinary management to prevent long‐term adverse outcomes and ensure patient safety in reproductive health care.
