Platelet desialylation, apoptosis, and T-lymphocyte-mediated immune dysregulation: unveiling the pathways of platelet clearance in platelet transfusion refractoriness.

Zhou Y, Zhong Z, Mo H et al. · 2026 · Research and practice in thrombosis and haemostasis

Background Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) is a clinical challenge that can be classified into nonimmunologic and immunologic types, the latter resulting from both platelet alloimmunization and autoimmunity. Recent studies have…

Sex-specific associations between type 2 diabetes and muscle health in middle-aged adults

Yijia Wang, Songting Gao, Qiang Xu et al. · 2025 · Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome

Abstract Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and sarcopenia have emerged as significant public health challenges that disproportionately affect middle-aged adults. However, the relationship between T2DM and muscle parameters in this critical age remains inadequately elucidated. Methods We conducted a comprehensive analysis of cross-sectional data derived from 2,446 middle-aged participants (aged 40–59 years; 1,230 men and 1,216 women) enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011–2014. T2DM was defined by physician-confirmed diagnosis and/or glycohemoglo

Correlation between Vitamin D Receptor Gene FOKI and BSMI Polymorphisms and the Susceptibility to Pulmonary Tuberculosis in an Indonesian Batak-ethnic Population

Bintang Y.M. Sinaga, Muhammad Amin, Yahwardiah Siregar et al. · 2014 · Acta Medica Indonesiana

Aim: to explore the role of FokI and BsmI polymorphisms the VDR gene in the susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) in an Indonesian Batak ethnic population. Methods: matched case-control study was conducted on 76 PTB patients and 76 healthy normal control. Genetic polymorphisms of Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) gene were analysed using PCR-RFLP. Results: the frequencies of FokI genotypes were FF 35.5%, Ff 55.3%, ff 9.2% for PTB patients and FF 39.5%, Ff 44.7.% and ff 15.8% for normal control. The BsmI genotypes frequencies were BB 0%, Bb 68.4%, bb 31.6% for TB patients and BB 2.6%, Bb 23.7%
