Syndrome of the Month: An Update on Smith‐Kingsmore Syndrome: Characterization of Developmental Milestones and a Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smith‐Kingsmore syndrome (SKS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by neurodevelopmental differences, macrocephaly/megalencephaly, describable facial features, sleep–wake abnormalities, hyperphagia, and overgrowth.

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune
