    Abstract Asthma is a widespread disease affecting approximately 300-million people globally. This condition leads to significant morbidity, mortality, and economic strain worldwide. Recent clinical and laboratory research advancements have illuminated the immunological factors contributing to asthma. As of now, asthma is understood to be a heterogeneous disease. Personalized medicine involves categorizing asthma by its endotypes, linking observable characteristics to specific immunological mechanisms. Identifying these endotypic mechanisms is paramount in accurately profiling patients and tailoring therapeutic approaches using innovative biological agents targeting distinct immune pathways. This article presents a synopsis of the key immunological mechanisms implicated in the pathogenesis and manifestation of the disease's phenotypic traits and individualized treatments for severe asthma subtypes.

    Abstract Background: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP), the most typical kind of pediatric vasculitis, can also affect adults. Over the last 10 years, research has been increasing on improvements in HSP diagnosis, physiopathology, symptoms, and therapy. Joint involvement is highly frequent in this condition; however, it typically undergoes spontaneous resolution and does not lead to long-term complications.
    Objective: To provide a deeper understanding of the constituting pathogenic mechanisms and clinical presentation of articular involvement, focusing on the effect of neutrophil activation on systemic small vessels.
    Methods: This literature review utilized a systematic search of academic databases, employing specific keywords to select recent peer-reviewed articles and scholarly sources on the topic.
    Results: The manifestations of joint involvement in HSP can vary in severity and frequency. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications or acetaminophen are considered the first-line treatment for joint pain; however, corticosteroids may help achieve quick remission. In cases where standard treatment fails or manifestations persist, immunosuppressive drugs like rituximab, methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, or azathioprine have been used.
    Conclusions: While it tends to resolve without lasting joint damage, accurate diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial to ensure optimal patient outcomes.

  3. Article: Comorbidities & burden of disease in atopic dermatitis.

    Abstract Background: Atopic dermatitis is associated with an increased frequency of other atopic & allergic manifestations, including asthma in 10% to 30% of cases depending on age, allergic rhinitis, food allergies, eosinophilic diseases, and allergic conjunctivitis. The comorbidities outside the atopic march are overall less frequent than in psoriasis.
    Objective: This review aims to demonstrate the intense, broad burden of this disease, comorbidities and its multidimensional involvement as a complex, heterogeneous disease.
    Methods: Methods: The present narrative review summarizes the findings from the world's largest epidemiological studies and smaller, AD-specific studies on the comorbidities and burdens of this disease.
    Results: Results: The risk of asthma, specifically, and other atopic manifestations and skin infections, generally, is clearly increased among patients with AD. Of the other skin diseases, there is an undeniable risk of alopecia areata, vitiligo, and contact eczema and a lower risk of developing other autoimmune diseases. While comorbidities exist, their frequency seems to be modified by lifestyle, particularly by smoking. There is a link with overweight, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, especially in severe AD. This is also the case for cardiovascular diseases; however, with OR/HRs below 1.5. There is no link to type II diabetes but, rather, to type I in children. In all other areas, the data are often inconsistent, and any increase in risk is low. Eye diseases seem to be the only exception. AD also has psychiatric consequences, including attention-hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, and sometimes suicidality, especially when severe.
    Conclusions: Conclusions: The recently published work largely confirms our existing understanding of AD.

    Abstract Background: Several studies have suggested that HIF-1α regulates eosinophil activity and induces epithelial inflammation
    Methods: HIF-1 levels were measured using immunocytochemistry in 133 patients aged 6 to 17 years in this crosssectional and comparative study. A microscope was used to examine glass slides, and positive cells were counted in four fields per slide using an image analyzer.
    Results: HIF-1α and nuclear HIF levels were significantly higher in asthma patients and even higher in patients experiencing asthma attacks (p<0.0001, 95% CI). There was no significant difference in the percentage of HIF-1α expression between groups with intermittent asthma and those with mild persistent asthma, nor between patients with asthma and those experiencing asthma exacerbations.
    Conclusions: When compared to healthy individuals, the expression of nuclear HIF and HIF-1α is increased in peripheral mononuclear cells in asthma patients and even more so in asthma exacerbations. This suggests that HIF-1α is important in the pathogenesis of this disease.

    Abstract Introduction: The frequency of visits to emergency department for asthma is a significant public health problem in pediatrics. This study aimed to identify the characteristics of children who visited the pediatric emergency department for asthma exacerbation and evaluated their therapeutic management prior to admission.
    Methods: A prospective study was conducted over a 6-month period in the pediatric emergency departments of five hospitals involving children aged 1-16 years admitted to the department with a clinical diagnosis of asthma exacerbation.
    Results: In all, 143 patients were enrolled in the study. Asthma episodes were moderate to severe in 69.2% of cases (n = 99). Initial treatment prior to admission to the emergency department was adequate in only 17.5% of cases (n = 25). Hospitalization for more than 24 h occurred in 18.2% (n = 26) patients. In children aged <3 years, viral infection was present in 91.4% cases (n = 64) and exacerbations were more severe in younger patients (P = 0.002) and children belonging to low-income stratum (P = 0.025). Only 17.4% (n = 25) were positive for SARS-CoV-2 (antigen test or polymerase chain reaction test), suggesting that the involvement of traditional respiratory viruses in asthma exacerbation continued even during pandemic. Regarding the pre-hospital care, 70.6% (n = 101) had received prior treatment, but this treatment was inadequate in 53.1% cases (n = 76).
    Conclusion: This study showed that asthmatic children and their families had little knowledge about the disease and that physicians must be sufficiently aware of current recommendations for managing asthmatic children. Admission to the emergency department for asthma could be avoided partially by better diagnosis and therapeutic education.

    Title translation Radiographic changes in children with primary immunodeficiency.
    Abstract Background: Although we have epidemiological information on primary immunodeficiencies (PID), the available information is meager in Mexico.
    Objective: To provide epidemiological information on the delay in the diagnosis of PID and its correlation to chronic lung damage.
    Material and method: A retrospective, analytical study was done in patients 0-18 year old age diagnosed with PID for 11 years at the HIMFG (Hospital Infantil de Mexico Federico Gomez). The variables studied were: age at symptom onset, age at diagnosis, time from onset of symptoms to diagnosis, number of previous pneumonias and studies with radiographic chronic lung damage data.
    Results: 48 patients were obtained after meeting inclusion criteria; 33 showed lung damage at diagnosis, antibody deficiency being the most affected group. Relating age of onset of symptoms and the time difference of the onset of symptoms to diagnosis showed a strong correlation (p < 0.001, Rho > 0.80). A moderate correlation between the observed time difference vs number of pneumonias (p=0.005, Rho=0.495) and correlation between number of pneumonia and lung damage was highly significant (p <0.001, Rho=0.704).
    Conclusion: A strong relationship between the elapsed time from onset of symptoms and the number of pneumonia with lung injury time was found. So, the recurrent pneumonia (> 2) must make suspect the diagnosis of PID, as recommended in the literature.
