Article Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of shear wave elastography(SWE) and hemodynamics in renal damage in patients with Type-1 diabetic nephropathy.

Method: This was a retrospective study. One hundred and ten patients with Type-1 diabetic nephropathy in The People's Hospital of Qingyuan District from January 2021 to January 2024 were selected as the study group, while sixty healthy subjects in the same period were selected as the healthy control group. The elasticity indexes of renal cortex and medulla in two groups were compared, as well as the hemodynamic indexes of different severity of patients.

Result: The parameters such as Young's modulus E value and shear wave velocity in the renal cortex and medulla in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (p=0.00). Young's modulus (E values) in the renal cortex and medulla in patients with diabetic nephropathy was positively correlated with urinary protein, serum creatinine, and serum uric acid concentration (p=0.00). Peak systolic velocity(PS), peak diastolic velocity(ED), mean velocity(TAMx), and minimum velocity(TAMn) in the arteries of kidney of the control group and early-stage group were significantly higher than those in the mid and late-stage groups (p=0.00), while resistive index(RI) was significantly lower (p=0.00).

Conclusion: SWE and hemodynamic testing may evaluate the severity of renal damage in patients with Type-1 diabetic nephropathy in a non-invasive manner, thereby providing references for dynamic monitoring of disease progression, evaluating the effect of clinical intervention, and adjusting treatment regimens.

Purpose: Infective endocarditis (IE) has been associated with severe outcomes when complicated by diabetes mellitus (DM). We aimed to report characteristics, microbial etiology, and mortality for patients with IE stratified by DM from a nationwide cohort.

Methods: We used Danish registries, and patients with first-time IE (2010-2020) were stratified by DM.

Sudden Death Caused by Bilateral Diaphragmatic Eventration in Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1.

Am J Forensic Med Pathol

Department of Pathology, St Louis University School of Medicine, Office of the Medical Examiner - City of St. Louis, St. Louis, MO.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1, or dystrophia myotonica type 1 (DM1), is a multisystem disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It is caused by a CTG tri-nucleotide expansion in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of the dystrophia myotonia protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Core clinical features include progressive skeletal muscle weakness, myotonia, and systemic complications, with premature mortality most often due to respiratory or cardiac dysfunction.

Myopathology and Immune Profile of Granulomatous Myositis in Sarcoid Myopathy.

Neuropathol Appl Neurobiol

October 2025

Division of Rheumatology and Systemic Inflammatory Diseases, III. Department of Medicine, University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, Hamburg, Germany.

Aims: Sarcoid myopathy (SaM) is characterised by granulomatous myositis (GM) and can overlap with inclusion body myositis (IBM), a late-onset chronic idiopathic inflammatory myopathy with a still enigmatic pathogenesis. As GM can occur in different clinical contexts, we aimed to examine the histomorphologic features and gene expression profiles in cases of definite SaM that may inform diagnostic and therapeutic considerations.

Methods: We performed a multidimensional characterisation of muscle biopsy specimens from patients with 'pure SaM' (n=17), SaM with concomitant IBM (SaM-IBM) (n=2), including histopathologic and ultrastructural analysis in addition to quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.

Models of care for children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes in low- and middle-income countries: a scoping review.

Cochrane Database Syst Rev

September 2025

Cochrane Evidence Synthesis Unit Germany/UK - Sub-Unit Düsseldorf, Institute of General Practice, Centre for Health and Society, Medical Faculty of the Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, Düsseldorf, Germany.

Background: In order to improve the outcomes of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), access to and quality of comprehensive acute and chronic care services in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) must be improved.

Objectives: To identify and summarise the characteristics of models of care for T1DM in children and adolescents in LMIC.

Search Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Index Medicus from inception to 11 December 2023 without restrictions.

Unlabelled: Encephalitis is a potentially life-threatening condition with infectious or autoimmune aetiologies. Autoimmune encephalitis includes paraneoplastic variants associated with specific onconeural antibodies such as anti-Hu, frequently linked to malignancies. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is the leading infectious cause in adults.
