The Evolving Trend of Liver Transplantation in Metabolic Diseases: From Origins to Current Perspectives

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 6, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Liver transplantation (LTx) has become, over the years, an increasingly used therapeutic option in patients with inherited metabolic diseases (IMD). Initially performed for Tyrosinemia Type I and ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, it now accounts as the second indication for pediatric transplants worldwide. The use of LTx has been extended

Immune Activation in Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: A Systematic Review and Comparative Analysis With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 13, Issue 9, Page 1740-1753, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic liver disease with aberrant immune dysregulation and bile duct fibrosis. It is often associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), especially ulcerative colitis, raising questions about distinct immune activation in these conditions.

Worsening abdominal pain leading to false laparotomy: a case of acute intermittent porphyria

open access: yesJournal of the Pakistan Medical Association
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), one of the most severe types of acute hepatic porphyria, is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder of heme biosynthesis. We present a case of a 16-year-old girl who presented with severe abdominal pain, subjected to

Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 745-802, October 2025.
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Delivering the Message: Translating mRNA Therapy for Liver Inherited Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 5, September 2025.
ABSTRACT mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) provides a dual revolution in the field of gene therapy. mRNA brings fleeting efficacy and the possibility to adjust the therapy to clinical needs. LNP, as a non‐viral vehicle with flexible organ‐targeting, overcomes most immune complications of viral gene therapy. mRNA‐LNP has rapidly progressed

Practical Recommendations for Indians on Sunscreen Use—A Modified Delphi Consensus by Indian Sunscreen Forum (PRISM‐ISF)

open access: yesJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a major contributor to photoaging, pigmentary disorders, and photocarcinogenesis. While sunscreens remain central to photoprotection, clinicians in India find it challenging to choose a sunscreen due to the wide variability in skin types, dermatologic conditions, climates, and formulation preferences ...

Clinically Important Features of Porphyrin and Heme Metabolism and the Porphyrias

open access: yesMetabolites, 2014
Heme, like chlorophyll, is a primordial molecule and is one of the fundamental pigments of life. Disorders of normal heme synthesis may cause human diseases, including certain anemias (X-linked sideroblastic anemias) and porphyrias.

Seminars in epileptology: How to diagnose status epilepticus in adults and children

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 530-549, August 2025.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) can be regarded as the most severe expression of seizure activity characterized by a low probability of spontaneous cessation and mechanisms leading to metabolic and inflammatory derangements with increased risk of brain damage, alterations of neural networks, and potentially life‐threatening systemic complications ...
