Serum Lipids Alterations in Patients Under Systemic JAK Inhibitors Treatments in Dermatology: Clinical Aspects and Management by Giovanni Paolino, Mario Valenti, Andrea Carugno, Matteo Bianco, Dario Didona, Matteo Riccardo Di Nicola, Pier Luigi Acutis, Carmen Cantisani, Vittoria Giulia Bianchi, Nicola Zerbinati, Alessandra Narcisi, Antonio Costanzo, Santo Raffaele Mercuri

“…<i>Results</i>: JAK inhibitors are consistently associated with an increase in both LDL and HDL levels shortly after treatment initiation, which tend to stabilise over time. Despite these changes, there is no clear evidence linking these alterations to an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), indicating a complex interaction between lipid metabolism and JAK-STAT signalling. …”

Experimental assessment of Acanthopagrus schlegelii biomass based on environmental DNA technology by Yan Liu, Mengyi Zhang, Liangming Wang, Changping Yang, Yukai Yang, Qijian Xie, Manting Liu, Cheng Chen, Chunbin Jia, Binbin Shan

“…The peak concentration of eDNA released by A. schlegelii was observed at 42 h, and the degradation process exhibited two stages: rapid and slow degradation, with a negative correlation between eDNA concentration and time. (2) By investigating the relationship between the concentration of A. schlegelii eDNA and biomass, it was demonstrated that Linear Models (LM) effectively captured this relationship, indicating a correlation between eDNA concentration and biomass. (3) The detection of A. schlegelii eDNA concentration under different salinity conditions revealed that the GAM model better reflected the relationship between eDNA and salinity, exhibiting a negative correlation. …”
