TL;DR: No correlation was found between AAbs and disease outcome and patients with severe COVID-19 express AAbs more commonly compared to controls, and AAbs were not found to correlate with the clinical outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
A gene expression map of colon tissue in ulcerative colitis: new methods rewrite old stories
TL;DR: There is a pressing need for a better understanding of UC pathogenesis that will provide novel molecular mechanisms and targets permitting tailored therapeutic approaches to individual patients with UC and reveal biomarkers that can predict disease relapse or response to treatment.
Journal Article
Multiple splenic macronodular tuberculomas: MRI characteristics under treatment.
Posted ContentDOI
Combined administration of inhaled DNase, baricitinib and tocilizumab as rescue treatment in COVID-19 patients with severe respiratory failure
TL;DR: In this paper , a combined rescue treatment (COMBI) on top of standard-of-care (SOC: dexamethasone and heparin) comprised inhaled DNase to dissolve thrombogenic neutrophil extracellular traps, plus agents against cytokine-mediated hyperinflammation, such as anti-IL-6 receptor tocilizumab and selective JAK1/2 inhibitor baricitinib.
Journal ArticleDOI
