Early IL‐1 Inhibition in Still's Disease: A Window of Opportunity for Improving Outcomes
Objective Still's disease is a complex, multisystemic disorder requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment. This study provides a general assessment of a Still's disease cohort aiming to evaluate the efficacy of early intervention with interleukin‐1 inhibitors (IL‐1i) in achieving clinical inactive disease (CID) and reducing glucocorticoid use in patients

The Paradox of Metachronous Lipoid Pneumonia
This is a case of recurrent exogenous lipoid pneumonia in a single patient caused by multiple unrelated substances. This case underscores the diagnostic value of radiologic patterns, the significance of meticulous exposure history, and the necessity of contemplating alternative aetiologies in patients with new infiltrates during cancer therapy ...

From the definition of Silicosis at the 1930 Johannesburg conference to the blurred boundaries between pneumoconioses, sarcoidosis and pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) [PDF]
The 1930 International Labour Office Conference on silicosis in Johannesburg identified silicosis by setting a medicolegal framework to its nosology: as with other occupational illnesses, its medical content was fixed under economic pressure.

Macrophages: Subtypes, Distribution, Polarization, Immunomodulatory Functions, and Therapeutics
Macrophages originate from the yolk sac, fetal liver, and bone marrow, differentiating into two main subtypes: M1‐like (proinflammatory) and M2‐like (anti‐inflammatory). These subtypes exhibit high plasticity, allowing them to transform in response to environmental cues or therapeutic interventions.
