Deletion of vitamin D receptor leads to premature emphysema/COPD by increased matrix metalloproteinases and lymphoid aggregates formation [PDF]
Deficiency of vitamin D is associated with accelerated decline in lung function. Vitamin D is a ligand for nuclear hormone vitamin D receptor (VDR), and upon binding it modulates various cellular functions.

ABSTRACT Aim To compare risks of malignancy, opportunistic infections, and venous thromboembolism between the targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (tsDMARDs) and biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) at the 2nd and 3rd lines of therapy (LOT). Methods We conducted a cohort study using the National Database of Health Insurance Claims (2013–2021).

This review highlights changes relevant to pathologists in the updated multidisciplinary classification of interstitial pneumonias. Changes include expansion beyond idiopathic disease, subclassification as interstitial (fibrotic vs non‐fibrotic) and alveolar filling disorders, expansion to include additional patterns (e.g.
