ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...

A rare case report of Ectopic Cervical A rare case report of Ectopic Cervical
The thymus, a lymphoepithelial organ, during the early fetal life originates from the superior neck and descends to the mediastinum. Embryological maldescent may lead to ectopic rests of thymic tissue along the pathway of its descent, neck being the most

Do titin and cytokine antibodies in MG patients predict thymoma or thymoma recurrence?
BACKGROUND: Patients with MG often have other autoantibodies in addition to those against the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). It has been suggested that antibodies to the muscle protein titin may be diagnostic of a thymoma, but they have also been found ...

This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis remains unclear. This study reveals that thymus‐originated IL‐7R‐enriched extracellular vesicles exacerbate colitis by promoting neutrophil extracellular traps via a thymus‐gut axis, uncovering an inter‐organ communication mechanism in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis.

In a two‐step, two‐sample Mendelian randomization framework, genetically predicted higher weight was associated with higher odds of myasthenia gravis (MG; OR = 1.67), whereas higher glucose levels showed an inverse association with MG (OR = 0.50). Genetically predicted higher weight was also associated with higher glucose levels (β = 0.06), and the MR ...

ABSTRACT Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignancy and remains a major cause of cancer‐related mortality worldwide. Its poor clinical outcomes are largely attributed to late‐stage diagnosis and the limited accuracy of currently available diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.

The diagnosis of thymic epithelial neoplasm has been a topic of controversy for many years. Reasons for this include the lack of predictive value associated with the morphology of these tumours and the multiplicity of classification schemes and terminologies proposed over the years.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Previous research investigated the connection between lichen planus (LP) and thyroid disorders due to their autoimmune characteristics; however, the correlation remains unclear. This study investigates the relationship between thyroid disorders and specific subtypes of LP, particularly cutaneous lichen planus (CLP) and ...
