Immune Cell-Mediated Autoimmune Responses in Severe Asthma
Yonsei Med J. 2024 Apr;65(4):194-201. doi: 10.3349/ymj.2023.0432.ABSTRACTSevere asthma (SA) has heterogeneous inflammatory phenotypes characterized by persistent airway inflammation (eosinophilic and/or neutrophilic inflammation) and remodeling. Various immune cells (eosinophils, neutrophils, and macrophages) become more activated and release inflammatory mediators and extracellular traps, damaging the protective barrier of airway epithelial cells and further activating other immune and structural cells. These cells play a role in autoimmune responses in asthmatic airways, where the adaptive immune system generates autoant...

Evidence of Placental Villous Inflammation and Apoptosis in Third-Trimester Symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 Maternal Infection
CONCLUSION: The presence of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein as well as altered inflammatory and apoptotic processes may indicate the presence of placental disturbance in third-trimester maternal COVID-19 infection. The lack of correlation between placental disruption and maternal severity status suggests the need for more research to understand the infection process and any potential long-term impacts on all offsprings born to COVID-19-infected pregnant women.PMID:38515357 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0309 (Source: Yonsei Medical Journal)

Application of Data Mining Technology in the Screening for Gallbladder Stones: A Cross-Sectional Retrospective Study of Chinese Adults
CONCLUSION: The results of this study showed that MLP and J48 algorithms are effective at screening individuals for the risk of GS. The key attributes of data mining can further promote the prevention of GS through targeted community intervention, improve the outcome of GS, and reduce the burden on the medical system.PMID:38515358 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0246 (Source: Yonsei Medical Journal)

Trend in the Incidence of Severe Partial Edentulism among Adults Using the Korean National Health Insurance Service Claim Data, 2014-2018
CONCLUSION: The study showed that the incidence trend of SPE increased and decreased from 2014 to 2018. This result would be able to aid in the planning of public oral health, and may also serve as fundamental data for verifying the impact of the public oral health policies implemented.PMID:38515361 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0380 (Source: Yonsei Medical Journal)

The First Case of a Korean Patient with a Mutation-Confirmed Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor-Associated Periodic Syndrome
Yonsei Med J. 2024 Apr;65(4):241-245. doi: 10.3349/ymj.2023.0366.ABSTRACTTumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS, OMIM: #142680) is a rare autoinflammatory disease (AID) with recurrent febrile episodes. To our knowledge, we report herein the first case of a patient with TRAPS in South Korea whose symptoms included fever, arthralgia, abdominal pain, rash, myalgia, cough, and lymphadenopathy. A pathogenic de novo mutation, c.175T>C (p.Cys59Arg), in the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1A (TNFRSF1A) gene, was confirmed by gene sequencing. The patient has been with tocilizumab (an...
