Gene expression signatures from single‐cell transcriptomics predict Sjögren's syndrome

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐based 12‐gene signature (SjS.Sig) was developed from scRNA‐seq data of PBMCs from Sjögren's syndrome patients. The model was validated using bulk RNA‐seq datasets and further confirmed through flow cytometry and qPCR analysis in an independent clinical cohort, demonstrating robust diagnostic potential.

Characterization of Pulmonary Functional Abnormalities in Systemic Sclerosis Using Xenon MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Xenon MRI is increasingly used to evaluate patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH), both of which are common manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc). As such, Xe‐MRI may be suited to interrogate lung function impairment in SSc.

Ocular facial myositis and sialadenitis presenting with new onset ulcerative colitis

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Extra‐intestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can involve most organ systems, although the immunologic underpinnings are not well understood. Most patients who present with an extra‐intestinal manifestation have a single site of extra‐intestinal involvement; however, a small cohort presents with multiple different sites ...

A Refractory Leg Skin Ulcer Associated With Multiple Myeloma Successfully Treated With Plasma Exchange, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder that primarily presents with CRAB symptoms (calcium elevation, renal failure, anemia, and bone abnormalities). In rare cases, MM manifests with systemic complications like skin ulcers, which present management challenges. Here, we report a 78‐year‐old Japanese man with MM and refractory

Nail Disorders in Systemic Conditions

JEADV 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.

TRIM Expression and Its Association With Disease Activity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with diverse manifestations, including rash, arthritis, and nephritis. Although autoantibodies are a key feature of SLE, their levels often poorly reflect disease severity, suggesting the involvement of additional contributing factors.

Collagen‐membrane‐covered matrix‐associated chondrocyte implantation improves safety over periosteum‐covered MACI for large knee cartilage defects: A real‐world data analysis in the registry study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This registry study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of collagen membrane‐covered matrix‐associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (cMACI) versus periosteum‐covered MACI (pMACI) for large knee cartilage defects (Outerbridge III–IV, ≥4 cm²) in the femorotibial and/or patellofemoral joints with a minimum 2‐year follow ...

Cochlear Implantation in Autoimmune Inner‐Ear Disease: Outcome and Patient‐Reported Benefit

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that patients with secondary autoimmune inner‐ear disease (AIED) achieve significant improvements in speech perception and quality of life following cochlear implantation. Although AIED patients may show slightly lower performance in noisy environments compared to controls, their subjective hearing benefit converges with matched
