This study found that men receiving enzalutamide and other androgen-deprivation therapies may be at increased risk for QT prolongation and torsades de pointes.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of a free-floating left atrial thrombus in a dog, highlighting the lack of specific therapeutic strategies for treating intracardiac thrombi in dogs.

This report describes two cases where patients developed vitiligo as a side effect of diphencyprone treatment for alopecia areata, highlighting the need to inform patients about this potential adverse effect.

This review discusses current treatments for discoid lupus erythematosus and highlights anifrolumab as a promising option for difficult cases, but no new clinical results are reported.

In this study, the researchers developed a deep learning framework to pre-emptively screen for adverse drug effects, showing strong predictive performance, including for increased bleeding risks with edoxaban compared to other anticoagulants.

This review discusses inherited forms of vitamin D-dependent rickets and explains their genetic and metabolic causes but reports no new clinical findings.

This study reported a series of eight children with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in Tunisia, identifying both common and novel mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene, and noting significant improvement with intravenous calcium treatment in most patients.

A heart transplant patient developed a skin condition called epidermodysplasia verruciformis after taking immune-suppressing drugs.

This study identified three EDAR gene variants potentially linked to hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in three Pakistani families, which could aid in genetic counseling for similar cases.

This abstract reviews hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, a rare genetic condition causing severe early childhood rickets, and reports no new results; effective treatment typically requires high doses of calcium to address hypocalcemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism.

This review discusses hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulants, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and exploring various diagnostic and management options, but it presents no new clinical findings.

Higher doses of glucocorticoids increase the risk of blood clots in asthma patients.

In this case study, a rare viral infection called trichodysplasia spinulosa was diagnosed in a 10-year-old girl post-kidney transplant; she was treated successfully with reduced immunosuppression alongside leflunomide and valganciclovir, though the efficacy of valganciclovir remains uncertain.

This study found that the rs2228570 polymorphism of the VDR gene was associated with an increased risk of melanoma, while the rs731236 polymorphism was linked to a protective effect against the disease in Colombian patients.

This case report describes a rare side effect of finasteride in a young male being treated for androgenic alopecia.

This study identified a novel I268T mutation in the vitamin D receptor that reduces its function, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, and found that a potent vitamin D analog could improve receptor function.

This study found that using a new method to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes for patients with hip avascular necrosis, including those with a history of Covid-19.

This case study reports on a rare form of vitamin D resistant rickets in a 37-year-old male, highlighting the condition's clinical features and the necessity for a thorough understanding of calcium and vitamin D metabolism in the diagnosis and management of metabolic bone diseases.

This literature review observed that patients with thrombophilic conditions may experience distinct and more severe Long COVID symptoms, potentially linked to chronic hypercoagulation post-COVID-19 infection.

This study found that using a new technique to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes in hips with avascular necrosis, including in patients previously treated for Covid-19.
