Article Abstract
Good syndrome is a rare condition characterized by the presence of thymoma in combination with adult-onset hypogammaglobulinemia. Immunological features of Good syndrome include various immunodeficiencies accompanied with hypogammaglobulinemia. In patients with thymoma, paraneoplastic syndromes including hypogammaglobulinemia worsen the prognosis. We herein describe a patient with advanced-stage type A thymoma who was effectively treated with chemotherapy and exhibited a parallel decrease in the serum level of soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R), which depends on cellular immunity. The present case suggests the efficacy of sIL-2R as a potential prognostic biomarker in a subset of patients with Good syndrome.

Understanding how sleep affects the risk of incident chronic conditions in midlife may reinforce the importance of a healthy sleep pattern for healthy aging and cardiometabolic health. The objective of the study was to examine associations of sleep duration and quality with incident obesity, diabetes and metabolic syndrome in mid-aged adults. Participants without obesity ( = 381), diabetes ( = 509), or metabolic syndrome ( = 487) from the Biomarker Projects in Midlife in the United States study were examined separately for baseline sleep duration and quality and their associations with incident obesity, diabetes, or metabolic syndrome after an average follow-up of 12 years.

Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV) and Novel duck reovirus (NDRV) are highly infectious diseases of waterfowl, causing significant harm to the global poultry industry. Early detection and diagnosis of NDRV and MDRV in clinical samples are crucial for effectively preventing and controlling these diseases. This study developed a duplex crystal digital PCR (dPCR) assay for the differential detection of NDRV and MDRV.

Heyde's syndrome signifies the link between aortic stenosis (AS) and bleeding due to angiodysplastic changes. While colonic angiodysplasia is commonly implicated, gastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE) represents a rarer manifestation in this context. We report the case of a 72-year-old male with severe AS who had recurrent upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to GAVE.

Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare disorder marked by sustained blood eosinophilia and associated tissue or organ damage in the absence of a secondary identifiable cause. Eosinophilic ascites and pleural effusion are extremely rare clinical presentations of idiopathic HES and often mimic malignancy, tuberculosis, or parasitic infections. We report a case of idiopathic HES in a 68-year-old male presenting with exudative eosinophilic ascites and pleural effusion.
