TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe cases of IgG4-related ophthalmic disease with lesions surrounding the optic nerve and all of these patients were male, and the male dominance in the patient group with lesions around the nerve was statistically significant based on a Chi-squared test.

TL;DR: LATY136F knock-in mice constitute an appropriate model of lung lesions in IgG4-RD in salivary glands, pancreas, and kidney lesions, and Th2-dominant cytokines and transforming growth factor-β were increased.

TL;DR: Although a histological diagnosis, including a differential diagnosis, is important, lymph node involvement in patients with TAFRO syndrome is usually modest or sometimes absent, making the differential diagnosis in borderline cases difficult.

TL;DR: This work outlines the pharmacotherapy for IgG4-related disease (IgG 4-RD), with a particular focus on type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), and the basis of therapy is oral prednisolone administration.

TL;DR: Clinical characteristics such as scanty subjective symptoms and much other organ involvement were identified in IgG4-related aortitis/periaortitis and periarteritis and the results suggest the necessity of systemic evaluation through radiographic examination not only at diagnosis but also during and after CS therapy in Igg4-RD.
