Asthma in Patients With Confirmed Pulmonary Sarcoidosis [PDF]

Can Respir J
Pulmonary sarcoidosis and asthma can present identical symptoms, making clinical evaluation difficult if the two diseases overlap. Diagnostic challenges often lead to either overdiagnosis of asthma in patients with confirmed sarcoidosis or withholding appropriate asthma treatment.

Primary and Secondary Grzybowski’s Generalized Eruptive Keratoacanthoma: A New Perspective on Management, Clinical Features, and Prognosis

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grzybowski's generalized eruptive keratoacanthoma (GEKA) is a rare variant of keratoacanthomas, characterized by hundreds to thousands of lesions, accompanied by pruritus, mucosal involvement, and comorbidities. Our aim was to analyze the clinical presentation, associated comorbidities, treatment strategies, and outcomes of GEKA.

Epidemiology and Genetics of Rheumatic Diseases Suggest a Constant Rate of DNA Damage as Underlying Cause

Immunology, EarlyView.
A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should

Averaged Impedance Drop Estimates Conduction Gap During Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Atrial Fibrillation

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background EnSite X provides a module to filter oscillated generator impedance signals due to cardiac beating/respiration (averaged impedance drop, AID). TactiFlex ablation catheter Sensor Enabled (TFSE) is the latest product to incorporate a contact‐force sensor with a flexible tip but without lesion‐estimating parameters.
