In cases of Sweet's syndrome with pulmonary involvement, fever of unknown origin, and macrocytic anaemia, VEXAS syndrome can be considered in the differential diagnosis. A 67-year-old man who was taking prednisolone for a fever of unknown origin and Sweet's syndrome was referred to us because of an abnormal chest shadow. Computed tomography revealed a nonfibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis-like opacity, and blood test results indicated macrocytic anaemia. His pulmonary symptoms spontaneously improved but again exacerbated approximately 1 month later...

BACKGROUND: "Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic" (VEXAS) syndrome is caused by acquired somatic mutations in the ubiquitin-activating enzyme 1 (UBA1) gene. Sweet-syndrome-like skin disorders (and especially histiocytoid Sweet syndrome (HSS)) may be associated with VEXAS syndrome. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the clinical and histopathological features of HSS in patients with VEXAS syndrome. METHODS: The skin biopsies with a histological diagnosis of HSS had been collected at Rennes University Medical Center (Rennes, France) between October 2011 and January 2022...

Diabetes type 2 (T2DM) is the non-insulin-linked disease that is now becoming a major problem not only in the West but also in Asia (particularly in China and close geographic areas). Unlike the childhood onset diabetic disease (T1DM), which is effectively due to lack of insulin production and is maintained by insulin injection, T2DM is best thought of as an adult disease often being caused by what is now considered "metabolic syndrome" or the culmination of too many insults to the body, in particular obesity and its "coupled diseases" including heart problems...

Type 2 leprosy reaction is a type of acute inflammation that predominantly affects borderline lepromatous leprosy and lepromatous leprosy patients and occurs before, during, or after therapy. The atypical variant, which resembles Sweet syndrome, could easily lead to misdiagnosis. Here, we report a case of a 52-year-old man who presented with type 2 leprosy reaction that mimicked Sweet syndrome. In addition, we review published cases and summarize their features to raise awareness of this atypical variant to enable improved diagnosis and management...

Aseptic abscess syndrome (AAS) is a medical rarity. The combination of multiple abscess collections in different organs, negative microbiological studies, and the association with an inflammatory bowel disease is highly suggestive for an AAS. The AAS is an acute neutrophilic dermatosis, so "generalized pyoderma gangraenosum" or "generalized bullous sweet syndrome" might be used synonymously. It is important to note that the diagnosis of an AAS can be made only after careful exclusion of an infectious disease...

The patterns of low risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) progression, and the clinical and molecular features of those patterns are not well described. We divided our low risk (LR) MDS patients (n=1914) into 4 cohorts: 1) Patients who remained LR-MDS (LR-LR; n=1300; 68%), 2) Patients who progressed from LR to HR MDS (LR-HR) without AML transformation (n=317; 16.5%), 3) Patients who progressed from LR to HR MDS and then AML (LR-HR-AML; n=124; 6.5%), 4) Patients who progressed from LR MDS to AML directly (LR-AML; n=173; 9%)...

Postprandial insulin secretion has been associated with metabolic disorders such as hyperlipidemia and type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we aimed to explore the relationship between dietary insulin indices and dietary pattern with the risk of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS). The participants of the present cross-sectional study were included among the individuals who participated in the Hoveyzeh Cohort Study (HCS). A total of 3905 Iranian adults, aged 35-70 years, are included in the current analysis. The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) is used to calculate the dietary Insulin Index (DII), Insulin Load (DIL), and dietary pattern...

This study aimed to analyze the associations of gustatory dysfunction as measured by validated taste strips with demographics and co-morbidities. This cross-sectional study retrospectively analyzed records of patients who attended the Orofacial Chemosensory Center of Hadassah Medical Center between 2017 and 2020. Taste strips were used as a validated method to determine taste dysfunction. A total of 272 subjects were included, 137 (50.4%) women and 135 (49.6%) men, with a mean age of 53.5 ± 19.3 years and age range of 18-98 years...

Children and adolescents' media time has increased since 2019. Prolonged time spent with media and media multitasking is increasingly being discussed as a health determinant. This narrative review highlights the importance of media time on the development of obesity and metabolic disorders in children and adolescents and discusses in more detail the associations with consumption of unhealthy foods and increased exposure to media food marketing.The prolonged durations that children and adolescents spend with social and digital media in their leisure time are positively related to sensory taste preferences for sweet, fatty, and salty foods as well as to higher snack food and energy intakes...

We report a case of vaccine-induced Sweet syndrome in a female patient in her 50s presenting with fevers and a scattered red patchy rash on the lower limbs. Seven days prior, she had received the first dose of AstraZeneca ChAdOx1-S vaccine. A skin biopsy confirmed Sweet syndrome. She did not respond to high doses of prednisolone and required methotrexate therapy to induce remission. This is one of the first reports of Sweet syndrome caused by the ChAdOx1-S vaccine and provides further evidence for vaccine-induced dermatosis...

The current levels of added sugars in processed foods impact dental health and contribute to a range of chronic non-communicable diseases, such as overweight, obesity, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. This review presents sugars and sweeteners used in food processing, the current possibility to replace added sugars, and highlights the benefits of using dates as a new natural, nutritious and healthy alternative to synthetic and non-nutritive sweeteners. In the context of environmental sustainability, palm groves afford a propitious habitat for a diverse array of animal species and assume a pivotal social role by contributing to the provisioning of sustenance and livelihoods for local communities...

Neutrophils have both antimicrobial ability and pathogenic effect in the immune system, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation is one of the representative behaviors of their dual role. NETs formation was triggered by pathogen-related components and pathogen non-related proteins as cytokines to exert its effector functions. Recent studies indicate that the pathogenicity of NETs contributed to several skin diseases such as psoriasis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and neutrophilic dermatosis...

VEXAS (Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, Autoinflammatory, Somatic) syndrome is an adult-onset autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by somatic mutations in the UBA1 gene and is considered the prototype of hematoinflammatory diseases. Patients with VEXAS syndrome exhibit inflammatory and hematological manifestations that can lead to clinical diagnoses such as relapsing polychondritis, polyarteritis nodosa, Sweet syndrome, and myelodysplastic syndrome. Diagnosis requires bone marrow evaluation to identify cytoplasmic vacuoles in myeloid and erythroid precursors...

OBJECTIVE: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for medically refractory Tourette syndrome (TS). Several effective targets have been reported, but there is still controversy about the networks involved in the efficacy of DBS for TS. Here, the authors aimed to identify the basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical networks associated with tic and obsessive-compulsive behavior (OCB) improvement and the network link between the two main targets for TS. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 21 patients treated with pallidal and thalamic DBS was performed...
