Article Abstract

The physiological perturbations induced by high-altitude exposure in mountain climbers, manifesting as immunological and metabolic deviations, have been previously reported but are not fully understood. In this study, we obtain multi-omic profiles of climbers' blood samples, including single-cell transcriptomic analysis of 375,722 immune cells, and plasma metabolomics and lipidomics. Longitudinal analysis reveals dynamic immune response profiles, during the acclimatization period, characterized by the downregulation of inflammatory responses in myeloid cell subsets and by the enhancement of immune effector processes in cytotoxic CD8 T, γδT, and CD16 natural killer cells. In contrast, during extreme-altitude mountaineering, the activation of inflammatory responses and impairment of immune effector function are observed, concomitant with an increased cellular response to hypoxia and oxidative stress pathways. Furthermore, glycolysis and antioxidant gene expression are upregulated during extreme-altitude mountaineering. Plasma metabolic analysis reveals significant alterations, involving enhanced glutamine and fatty acid metabolism.

Purpose Of Review: Diagnostic stewardship (DS) aims to optimise the use of laboratory testing to improve patient care while reducing unnecessary tests. This review examines recent evidence on DS interventions to optimise the use of resources, focusing on three key areas: reducing unnecessary testing, maximising the impact of existing tests, and avoiding the overdiagnosis of hospital-acquired infections.

Recent Findings: Multiple interventions have demonstrated effectiveness in reducing unnecessary blood and urine culture testing, including clinical decision support tools, education programs, and multidisciplinary approaches.

It is helpful for diagnostic purposes to improve our current knowledge of gut development and serum biochemistry in young piglets. This study investigated serum biochemistry, and gut site-specific patterns of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) and expression of genes related to barrier function, innate immune response, antioxidative status and sensing of fatty and bile acids in suckling and newly weaned piglets. The experiment consisted of two replicate batches with 10 litters each.

Follicular unit extraction (FUE) has become a leading technique in hair transplantation, yet optimal management of the donor area remains a clinical challenge. This systematic review analyzes intraoperative and postoperative interventions applied to the donor area in FUE hair transplantation, with a focus on both clinical outcomes and the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in tissue repair, inflammatory response, and regenerative processes. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and EMBASE (January 2000-June 2025), identifying clinical studies that evaluated donor area treatments and reported outcomes related to healing, inflammation, infection, and patient satisfaction.

Background And Objectives: Deucravacitinib, a first-in-class, oral, selective, allosteric tyrosine kinase 2 inhibitor, demonstrated efficacy across the primary endpoint and all key secondary endpoints in the phase 2 PAISLEY SLE trial in patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Here, we describe 2 phase 3 trials [POETYK SLE-1 (NCT05617677), POETYK SLE-2 (NCT05620407)] which will assess the efficacy and safety of deucravacitinib in patients with active SLE. These phase 3 trials have been designed to replicate the successful elements of the phase 2 trial, including its glucocorticoid-tapering strategy and disease activity adjudication.
