TL;DR: Clinical and experimental evidence is provided that inflammation plays a crucial role in the development of myopia and that atropine downregulated inflammation in MFD eyes.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that constitutiveSTAT3 signaling is required for osteosarcoma survival and migration in vitro and tumor growth in vivo and blocking persistent STAT3 signaling by LLL12 and FLLL32 may be a novel therapeutic approach for ostea.

TL;DR: It is shown that cultured murine podocytes express key components of the GR complex, including the GR, heat shock protein 90, and the immunophilins FK BP51 and FKBP52, and that short-term, high-dose GC treatment resulted in similar changes in gene expression and GR phosphorylation to that of long- term, low- dose GC treatment, thus providing a molecular rationale for the known efficacy of pulse GC therapy in NS.

TL;DR: The experimental findings in mice corroborate the epidemiological data showing that allergic inflammation influences the development of myopia.

TL;DR: Investigation of the trends of childhood nephrotic syndrome admissions and factors associated with childhood NS admissions with major infections in Taiwan finds that children in Taiwan are more likely to be diagnosed with NS than elsewhere in the world.
