Type 2 inflammation in asthma develops with exposure to stimuli to include inhaled allergens from house dust mites (HDM). Features include mucus hypersecretion and the formation of pro-secretory ion transport characterised by...
Read MoreThe baseline series includes common allergens, evolves over time, and differs by location. Our study aims to characterize allergen sensitization trends among the Israeli population during the last two decades, compare our...
Read MoreNeural mechanisms underlying amputation-related secondary pain are unclear. Using in vivo two-photon imaging, three-dimensional reconstruction, and fiber photometry recording, we show that a microglial activation cascade from...
Read MoreTo identify risk factors for smoking among pregnant women, and adverse perinatal outcomes among pregnant women. A case-control study of singleton full-term pregnant women who gave birth at a university hospital in Jordan in June...
Read MoreBronchial asthma (BA) exhibits varying prevalence across global populations, prompting a comprehensive investigation into genetic and environmental determinants. Vitamin D is a potent immunomodulator capable of suppressing...
Read MoreAsthma is a global public health concern. The underlying pathogenetic mechanisms of asthma were poorly understood. This study aims to explore potential biomarkers associated with asthma and analyze the pathological role of...

Atopic disease has been associated with immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation, but current...
Read MoreTo assess the frequency of simultaneous distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint disease and adjacent nail psoriasis (finger unit) among patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and compare the efficacy of the interleukin (IL)-17A...
Read MoreJasmonates (JAs), a class of lipid-derived stress hormones, play a crucial role across an array of plant physiological processes and stress responses. While JA signaling is generally thought to rely dominantly on the degradation...
Read MoreYoung adults are using e-cigarettes at high rates. While the literature on the health risks associated with e-cigarettes is extensive and growing, little is known about young adults’ thoughts and perceptions of the safety...
Read MoreAllergic rhinitis (AR) and migraine are among the most common public health problems worldwide. Observational studies on the correlation between AR and migraine have reported inconsistent results. This study aimed to investigate...
Read MoreUp to 90% of asthmatic patients have comorbid allergic rhinitis (AR). Although appropriate therapy of AR can improve asthma symptoms and management, AR is often underdiagnosed and under-treated in asthmatics.A non-systematic...
Read MoreWhen feeding on a vertebrate host, ticks secrete saliva, which is a complex mixture of proteins, lipids, and other molecules. Tick saliva assists the vector in modulating host hemostasis, immunity, and tissue repair mechanisms....
Read MoreThe clinical association of purpura, arthralgia, and arthritis was first described in 1837 in a publication by Johann Lukas Schönlein, a German physician. In 1874, Eduard Henoch, a student of Schönlein, reported cases of...
Read MoreThe association of air pollution and greenspace with respiratory pathogen acquisition and respiratory health was investigated in a community-based birth-cohort of 158 Australian children. Weekly nasal swabs and daily...
Read MoreTobacco smoke (TS) is the leading cause for lung cancer (LC), and female smokers are at a greater risk for LC. Yet, the underlying causes are unknown. We performed whole genome scans in TS exposed wild type and histologically...
Read MoreAsthmatic symptoms often start during early childhood. Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is feasible in preschool children who may be unable to reliably perform spirometry measurements.We evaluated the utility of IOS in a multicenter...
Read MoreType 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) play a pivotal role in type 2 asthma. CD226 is a costimulatory molecule involved in various inflammatory diseases.We aimed to investigate CD226 expression and function within human and mouse...
Read MoreAllergic rhinitis (AR) is a common chronic inflammatory disease characterized by symptoms such as itching, rhinorrhea, sneezing, and nasal obstruction. Despite being classified as an IgE-mediated typeⅠ allergy for many years,...
Read MoreTransgender women (TW) experience significant inequities in healthcare access and health disparities compared to cisgender populations. Access to non-transition related healthcare is understudied among TW. We aimed to assess the...
