From a novel pathogenic SAMD9L variant to cohort‐wide insights: Whole‐genome sequencing highlights somatic genetic rescue and phenotypic heterogeneity

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Germline gain‐of‐function variants in sterile alpha motif domain–containing 9‐like (SAMD9L), located on chromosome 7q, cause a multisystem disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, immunodeficiency and variable neurological involvement. Disease evolution is frequently shaped by somatic genetic rescue (SGR), most commonly through monosomy 7,

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
In this target trial emulation of patients with immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases and type 2 diabetes, SGLT2 inhibitor initiation was not associated with a clear increase in UTI risk versus metformin, including across immunosuppressive therapy strata.

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.
