Juvenile Dermatomyositis Triggered by Influenza B: A Case Report on Viral‐Induced Autoimmunity
ABSTRACT A previously healthy 13‐year‐old boy developed juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) shortly after a confirmed influenza B infection, presenting with progressive proximal muscle weakness and classic cutaneous findings. Laboratory tests revealed elevated muscle enzymes and myositis‐specific autoantibodies, supporting the diagnosis.

Biomarkers for muscle disease activity are needed for trials in Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). We investigated magnesium (Mg2+), phosphodiesters (PDE) and pH from 31P‐MRS; and membrane permeability from random permeable barrier model (RBPM) diffusion as candidates, studying ‘preserved’ and ‘progressing’ muscles in patients with BMD versus controls ...

The Aetiology of Elevated Total Serum Immunoglobulin E in Children
ABSTRACT Aim The paucity of real‐world data on the aetiology of elevated total serum immunoglobulin E (TS‐IgE) in children afflicts families and health care systems with diagnostic uncertainty. We explored a cohort of children with TS‐IgE levels over 1000 kU/L, focusing on the prevalence of atopic and non‐atopic conditions, the aetiology of extremely ...

Immune‐Mediated Necrotizing Myopathy Diagnosis and Flare in an Adolescent After COVID‐19 Vaccine
Muscle biopsy is histopathologically consistent with a diagnosis of immune‐mediated necrotizing myopathy. ABSTRACT We discuss a teenager who developed a rare pediatric autoimmune muscle disease after completing the primary COVID‐19 vaccine series, which flared shortly after COVID‐19 booster vaccination.
