Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir, tenofovir and lamivudine during venous–venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO): A case report

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 5, Page 1487-1492, May 2026.
While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...

A novel case of autosomal recessive CARD11 loss‐of‐function underlying impaired antiviral immunity and a review of literature

Clinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 5, 2026.
We report on a patient homozygous for a novel autosomal recessive loss‐of‐function CARD11 variant, with susceptibility to live attenuated virus (LAV) vaccines and impaired clearance of multiple naturally acquired respiratory viral infections. Inborn errors of immunity affecting the CARD11‐BCL10‐MALT1 (CBM) complex should be considered in individuals ...

Efficacy of upadacitinib induction for pediatric inflammatory bowel disease

JPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 296-300, May 2026.
Abstract Objectives Upadacitinib, a second‐generation Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, is approved for moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) in adults. Its efficacy in pediatric patients remains unclear, though early reports suggest benefits in refractory inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
