Thyroid-associated Ophthalmopathy
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy is the most frequent extrathyroidal involvement of Graves' disease but it sometimes occurs in euthyroid or hypothyroid patients. Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy is an autoimmune disorder, but its pathogenesis is not completely understood.

Teprotumumab for Thyroid Eye Disease: Efficacy and Impact on Orbital Decompression Utilization
Teprotumumab has been proven effective in thyroid eye disease and associated exophthalmos management. Since its FDA approval in 2020, teprotumumab therapy has been a popular choice for managing exophthalmos which has resulted in decreased utilization of orbital decompression surgery, from 36.8% between 2015 and 2020 to 11.1% TED patients between 2020 ...

Exploring tear fluid biomarkers and the ocular surface in thyroid eye disease
Abstract Purpose To examine ocular surface changes and inflammatory tear fluid biomarkers in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). Methods We included 106 Graves' disease (GD) patients (36 without TED, 32 with active and 38 with inactive TED) and 106 age‐ and sex‐matched healthy subjects for ophthalmological evaluation, including ocular surface ...

TSHR‐Targeting Nucleic Acid Aptamer Treats Graves' Ophthalmopathy via Novel Allosteric Inhibition
This study presents YC3, a novel inhibitory TSHR‐targeting aptamer, as a promising therapeutic for Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). YC3 suppresses pathological phenotypes in human orbital fibroblasts and improves outcomes in GO mice by binding to a previously unidentified allosteric site on TSHR, demonstrating the potential of aptamers in advancing ...

An Allosteric Strategy for Thyroid Eye Disease This illustration depicts an aptamer (purple) binding to the target protein (white) at an allosteric site. This strategic binding induces a conformational change that acts as a shield, preventing pathogenic autoantibodies (red) from initiating the disease cascade, while leaving the protein's normal ...

Application of machine learning in the diagnostic work‐up of telomere biology disorders
ABSTRACT We applied supervised and unsupervised machine learning (ML) analyses to a cohort of 140 patients referred to the Hematology Unit of the G. Gaslini Institute from 1989 to 2023 for persistent cytopenia and/or features suggestive of telomere biology disorders (TBDs). Patients were labeled as “TBD” (n = 20, established molecular diagnosis of TBD),

Background Rituximab has been proven effective at a dose of 2 g in moderate‐to‐severe pemphigus by depleting CD20+B‐cell; however, studies have found that 100 mg RTX may suffice to fully suppress CD20+B‐cell. Objective We aimed at investigating the efficacy, safety, and prognostic factors of titrating RTX to circulating B‐cells starting from 100 mg ...
