Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Homocitrullinated Peptides Drive Pro‐Inflammatory T Cell Responses in a Humanized Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

Complement activation linked to type II interferon signaling in Still disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by innate immune dysregulation. While complement can drive inflammation, its involvement in SD remains to be defined. Thus, we aimed to assess complement activation in SD. Methods Complement was assessed using transcriptomic, proteomic, and in vitro approaches. RNA sequencing of

Arthroscopic Allogeneic Bone Strip Grafting for Recurrent Shoulder Dislocation With Critical Glenoid Bone Loss: A Free Graft Suspension Fixation Technique

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract In patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and glenoid bone loss between 10% and 20%, isolated Bankart repair remains associated with a certain rate of postoperative redislocation. The optimal management for this patient subset is controversial. We describe an all‐arthroscopic technique using allogeneic bone strips for free graft

Understanding Plant Parasitism: Hydnora Africana and European Scientific Practice in the Early Nineteenth Century**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
This article will analyze the uncertainties around collecting and classifying Hydnora africana in the first half of the nineteenth century. Emerging from the distinctive dryland ecologies of South Africa, Hydnora was interpreted as strange and cryptic by Europeans primarily because it is a root parasite—a complex floral trait that was little understood.

The Dynamics‐of‐Value‐in‐Consumption of Recycled Textile Materials

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate how the perceived value of recycled textile materials evolves across the consumption cycle, a key issue for recycling‐based strategies seeking to close the loop in the fashion industry. We employ a qualitative design combining an exploratory study and a longitudinal study with three interview waves, in which participants ...

The Association Between Perpetration of Relational Aggressive Tendencies and Adolescent Antisocial Behavior

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most research on relational aggression has primarily examined these behaviors among children, with limited exploration of its developmental progression during early adolescence and its associations with antisocial behaviors such as alcohol use, physical aggression, and rule‐breaking conduct.

Potential Risks of Virtual Influencer Diversity in Charitable Endorsements: A Cognitive Dissonance Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Behaviour, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highlighting diversity‐related attributes has become an increasingly prominent marketing communication strategy in virtual influencer endorsement practices. Prior research has largely focused on commercial endorsement contexts, conceptualized diversity as a homogeneous and single‐dimensional construct, and emphasized its predominantly positive
