Prevalence of Demodex spp. in patients with chronic blepharitis
Rev Argent Microbiol. 2023 Aug 2:S0325-7541(23)00055-X. doi: 10.1016/j.ram.2023.05.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBlepharitis is a very common disease in ophthalmology, dermatology and allergy practice. It generally follows a chronic course and is frequently associated with objective and/or subjective symptoms such as epiphora, red eye, dandruff, gritty sensation, itching, burning, photophobia, and blurred vision. The purpose of this study is to analyze the prevalence of Demodex spp. in patients with symptoms of chronic blepharitis. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in the period between 2016 and 2020. ...

Type 2 immunity in the brain and brain borders
Cell Mol Immunol. 2023 Jul 10. doi: 10.1038/s41423-023-01043-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecent research in neuroimmunology has revolutionized our understanding of the intricate interactions between the immune system and the central nervous system (CNS). The CNS, an "immune-privileged organ", is now known to be intimately connected to the immune system through different cell types and cytokines. While type 2 immune responses have traditionally been associated with allergy and parasitic infections, emerging evidence suggests that these responses also play a crucial role in CNS homeostasis and disease pathogenesis. Type...
