Article Abstract

Seven new species of the genus are described and illustrated from southern China. The new species Hou & Li, , Hou & Li, , Hou & Li, and Hou & Li, are characterized by inner ramus of uropod III half the length of outer ramus. Hou & Li, is characterized by inner ramus of uropod III 0.9 times as long as outer ramus. Hou & Li, is characterized by pereopods V-VII with long setae on anterior margins and both rami of uropod III armed with simple setae. Hou & Li, can be distinguished from other species by eyes absent. DNA barcodes of the new species are documented as proof of molecular differences between species. A key to the new species and a map of their distributions are provided.

Introduction: Most patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) suffer from multimorbidity, but the multimorbidity patterns were not well understood. We aimed to ascertain the different multimorbidity patterns among T2DM patients and to explore the corresponding associated factors.

Method: The study included 3403 T2DM patients from Tianjin, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a serious condition associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and the study explores how extracellular vesicles (EVs) might play a role in its pathogenesis.
  • The research involved 18 SLE-PAH patients, 36 SLE patients without PAH, and 36 healthy controls, using flow cytometry to analyze different types of circulating EVs.
  • Key findings indicate that various subgroups of EVs (like LEVs and PEVs) were significantly elevated in SLE-PAH patients, suggesting they could serve as potential biomarkers for predicting PAH severity in SLE patients.

Background: ILD is a common manifestation in pSS and is associated with an increased risk of death. APCA are strongly expressed by hyperplastic alveolar epithelial cells in the fibrotic lung and are associated with an accelerated decline in lung function in IPF. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of APCA in ILD patients with pSS.

Objectives: The aim of this study is to profile the transcriptional landscapes of affected tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) at the single-cell level in IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). Identifying the cell populations and crosstalk between immune cells and non-immune cells will assist us in understanding the aetiology of IgG4-RD.

Methods: We performed single-cell RNA sequencing analysis on submandibular glands (SMGs) and PBMCs from patients with IgG4-RD and matched controls.
