Cardiovascular Plasticity and Adaptation of High‐Altitude Birds and Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This schematic depicts the cardiovascular adaptations of mammals and birds to high‐altitude hypoxia. It highlights key phenotypic changes in oxygen transport and cardiac responses, driven by molecular mechanisms including transcriptional regulation and genetic modifications.

Comparative Genomics and Functional Evidence for Convergent Adaptation to Hypoxia in Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study reveals convergent selection in mammals adapted to hypoxia. Functional assays demonstrate that amino acid mutations reduce oxidative stress, attenuate hypoxia‐induced injury, and modulate the hypoxia‐inducible transcription factor (HIF)‐driven hypoxic response.

Nomenclature on Immune‐Mediated Drug Reactions: An EAACI Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past several decades, there have been significant advances in our understanding of both immunological and pharmacological mechanisms of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Immune‐mediated drug reactions (IMDRs) represent a small proportion of ADRs and are caused by a pathological activation of the immune system or inflammatory pathways ...

The Paediatric BCG Vaccine Century: From Historical Success to Future Innovations

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, Bacille‐Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), protects infants against severe forms of primary TB. Yet, it does not protect against pulmonary reactivation TB in adults. Methods A literature review was conducted between 1st January and 28th February 2025 using PubMed, Google Scholar and reports of the World Health ...

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis Suggested That Neutrophils Predominated the Airways of Children With the Respiratory Syncytial Virus

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a predominant aetiology of early‐life respiratory infections. This systematic review and meta‐analysis compared the cell types involved in airways inflammation in children with and without RSV, noting that immune responses can influence long‐term complications and may involve different inflammatory ...

Progressive Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Diagnosis Masking Pneumonic Lung Carcinoma: Anchoring Bias in Critical Care

open access: yesCytopathology, EarlyView.
A presumed case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis with clinical deterioration was ultimately identified at autopsy as pneumonic‐type pleomorphic carcinoma. This case highlights the diagnostic overlap between diffuse lung diseases and the risk of anchoring bias in critically ill patients.

Interleukin‐12: Central Roles in Immune Regulation and Disease Therapy

open access: yesImmunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
IL‐12 levels are tightly regulated to balance effective protective immunity against infections and cancer with the risk of excessive inflammation and autoimmune disease. Both insufficient and excessive IL‐12 activity can therefore be detrimental, highlighting the importance of precisely controlling its production and signaling. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐12 (

Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis: A case report and brief review of literature [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Internal Medicine
Background: Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM), a rare autosomal recessive pulmonary disease, is mainly characterized by extensive calcium phosphate microliths deposition in the alveoli. The major mutation, causing the characteristic of this disease,
