Assessment of Treatment Response in Patients With Scleromyxedema by the Double Modified Rodnan Skin Score

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Scleromyxedema (SMX) is a cutaneous mucinosis characterised by an abnormal accumulation of mucin in the skin and limited treatment options. Assessment of therapy response during treatment is challenging. Objectives Patients with SMX receiving high‐dose intravenous IVIg therapy were included to assess validity of the double modified ...

Control of Fibrosis in Systemic Scleroderma.

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1993
Scleroderma is characterized by an excessive deposition of collagen in all involved organs. This is due to an overproduction of extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules following induction of gene expression, whereas there is no evidence that the composition of the connective tissue matrix is altered.

Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis: A Rare Contemporary Case After a Decade of Declining Incidence

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a rare fibrosing disorder associated with exposure to gadolinium‐based contrast agents in patients with renal impairment. Although its incidence has markedly declined since the restriction of high‐risk linear gadolinium agents, sporadic cases may still occur.

Nail Disorders in Systemic Conditions

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nail findings in children can be indicative of an underlying systemic disease. Many of these findings are seen in multiple entities and are not specific to one disease. The importance of specifically examining for these nail changes cannot be overstated.

Determinants of Improved Dyspnea and Exercise Tolerance With Nasal High‐Flow O2 Therapy in Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease: A Pilot Physiological Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We tested the respective effect of high‐flow and supplemental O2 from nasal high‐flow O2 therapy (NHFO2) on dyspnea and exercise tolerance in fibrotic interstitial lung disease. Supplemental O2 and NHFO2 (but not high‐flow) provided improvements in these outcomes at “iso‐O2 saturation” due to reduced ventilatory requirements.

Validation of the Milan Score Using Prolonged Wireless PH Monitoring

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Milan Score, a high‐resolution manometry‐derived tool, predicts pathological GERD on 96‐h wireless pH monitoring with high specificity and positive predictive value, maintaining robust discriminative performance across both typical and atypical symptom profiles and outperforming single HRM parameters as a standalone manometric parameter.

High frequency of CD95+/CD45RA− regulatory T cells defines an immunosuppressive profile associated with MDS progression

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Dynamic interactions between mutated haematopoietic cells and immune cells are key drivers of myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) initiation and progression. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are central mediators of immunosuppression in MDS. We thus aimed to characterize Treg subpopulations in the bone marrow (BM) of MDS patients and to explore their ...
