Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder of the neuromuscular junction. The muscle‐specific kinase (MuSK) antibody‐positive subtype often involves bulbar and respiratory muscles, conferring a high risk of myasthenic crisis. Method We report a very late‐onset MuSK‐MG case complicated by lung infection and acute heart failure,

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy
The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 10, Page 4589-4595, October 2026.Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

JTCVS OpenObjective: Although open thymectomy has traditionally been the gold standard for resection of large thymic tumors, growing evidence has suggested minimally invasive thymectomy to confer comparable survival. However, the influence of incremental increases

“White and Clear” (WaC): A tunable hydrophilic tissue clearing strategy for multi‐species 3D imaging
VIEW, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.Optical tissue clearing methods help scientists make tissues transparent to image structures deep inside organs in 3D, but many existing techniques are limited in performance and difficulty. In this study, we developed an optimized clearing method called WaC (White and Clear), which improves upon existing techniques by combining efficient tissue ...

Pure Red Cell Aplasia Associated with Thymolipoma: Complete Anaemia Resolution following Thymectomy
Case Reports in Hematology, 2018 Pure red cell aplasia is an uncommon cause of anaemia rarely associated with thymoma. A combination of immunosuppressive therapy and thymectomy offers a potential cure. Thymectomy alone rarely results in anaemia resolution.

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.Thymic involution, the age‐related replacement of thymic soft tissue by fat, has been linked to immunosenescence and chronic inflammation. Whether HIV infection affects thymic involution remains unclear. We found that people with HIV on long‐term antiretroviral therapy had more thymic tissue than controls, indicating less thymic involution. More thymic

Neurological Research and Practice, 2023 Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare neuromuscular disorder. Symptoms can range from ptosis only to life threatening myasthenic crisis. Thymectomy is recommended for anti-acetylcholine receptor-antibody positive patients with early-onset MG. Here,

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Co‐occurrence of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) and myasthenia gravis (MG) is rare but clinically critical, as treatable MG symptoms may be misattributed to FSHD progression. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to comprehensively characterize patients with both conditions and to quantitatively synthesize ...

Case Reports in Neurology, 2011 Many long-term, follow-up studies have shown that steroids are effective in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) who have undergone thymectomy. However, few long-term studies have documented the response of MG to steroids alone.

Pediatric Transplantation, Volume 30, Issue 10, October 2026.The T cell and Natural Killer cell immune responses in primary EBV infection in children or during progression to PTLD are not well characterized. By performing detailed prospective immunological phenotyping through the first year after 278 pediatric organ transplants, we will unearth pathways that may inform EBV oncogenesis progression.
