Supervariate Gel Transforms into Various Biominerals in Salt Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 37, September 11, 2025.
It is revealed that common calcium‐based biominerals can form from a stable, non‐toxic ‘supervariate’ gel. This tunable gel selectively yields calcite or hydroxyapatite in carbonate/phosphate solutions, while CaCl₂ facilitates the formation of dihydrate calcium pyrophosphate, which converts to hydroxyapatite upon drying. These findings provide insights

Circulating Fetuin‐A concentrations in rheumatic diseases: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 55, Issue 5, May 2025.
In this systematic review with meta‐analysis, we identified 19 eligible studies to determine whether there is any change in Fetuin‐A (FtA) concentrations in patients with rheumatic diseases. We observed a significant decrease in FtA concentrations in RD patients (standardized mean difference, SMD = −.91; 95% CI −1.43 to −.39, p = .001).

Crowned Dens Syndrome Triggered by Dental Treatment

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Crowned dens syndrome (CDS) is an important yet often overlooked cause of fever and neck pain, frequently leading to unnecessary examinations and treatments and misdiagnosis as infectious diseases or rheumatic diseases. The mechanism of an acute attack of CDS is not clarified completely, while it is considered that severe systemic stress can ...

The mechanisms of inflammation in gout and pseudogout (CPP-induced arthritis)

Reumatismo, 2012
Recent advances have stimulated new interest in the area of crystal arthritis, as microcrystals can be considered to be endogenous “danger signals” and are potent stimulators of immune as well as non-immune cells.
