    Abstract This study assessed the relationship between immigration status, including recency, and unmet home care needs. Data from the 2015-2016 Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) was used to analyze the relationship between immigration status and unmet home care needs. Descriptive analyses and multivariable logistic regression controlling for age, sex, marital status, and education were calculated. Of the study sample of 5976 respondents, 34.5% had unmet home care needs. Prevalence of unmet needs was highest among recent immigrants (43.8%), compared with long-time immigrants (40.5%) and non-immigrants (32.7%). Adjusted odds of unmet needs was higher for both immigrant categories than non-immigrants, and stronger for long-time immigrants (OR = 1.58, 95% CI: 1.14, 2.20) than recent immigrants (OR = 1.42, 95% CI: 0.67, 3.00). The finding that immigrants are more likely to experience unmet home care needs, with a slight difference between recent and long-time immigrants, suggests home care access inequities exist between immigrants and non-immigrants, and among immigrants.

    Abstract Lupus nephritis (LN) is a common and severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus and an important cause of acute and chronic kidney injury. Early diagnosis of LN and preventing relapses are key to preserving renal reserve. However, due to the complexity and heterogeneity of the disease, clinical management remains challenging. Kidney biopsy remains the gold standard for confirming the diagnosis of LN and subsequent assessment of kidney histopathology, but it is invasive and cannot be repeated frequently. Current clinical indicators of kidney function such as proteinuria and serum creatinine level are non-specific and do not accurately reflect histopathological changes, while anti-dsDNA antibody and C3 levels reflect immunological status but not kidney injury. Identification of novel and specific biomarkers for LN is prerequisite to improve management. Renal function deterioration is associated with changes in the endothelial glycocalyx, a delicate gel-like layer located at the interface between the endothelium and bloodstream. Inflammation induces endothelial cell activation and shedding of glycocalyx constituents into the circulation. This review discusses the potential role of soluble glycocalyx components as biomarkers of active LN, especially in patients in whom conventional serological and biochemical markers do not appear helpful.

    Abstract Obtaining precise and detailed parcellations of the human brain has been a major focus of neuroscience research. Here, we present a multimodal dataset, MYATLAS, based on histology-derived myeloarchitectonic parcellations for use with contemporary neuroimaging analyses software. The core of MYATLAS is a novel 3D neocortical, surface-based atlas derived from legacy myeloarchitectonic histology studies. Additionally, we provide digitized quantitative laminar profiles of intracortical myelin content derived from postmortem photometric data, cross-correlated with

    Abstract A 60-year-old Caucasian man had a 55-year history of recurrent severe epistaxis and later presented with multiple gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding from hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Bleeding was exacerbated due to coexistent mild hemophilia A. Despite repeated conventional surgical interventions, tranexamic acid and recombinant factor VIII (FVIII) prophylaxis, bleeding episodes worsened in frequency and severity, resulting in the patient becoming transfusion dependent. The introduction of tamoxifen therapy resulted in reduced transfusion requirement.

    Abstract Lupus nephritis is an important cause of both acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease that can result in end-stage renal disease. Its pathogenic mechanisms are characterized by aberrant activation of both innate and adaptive immune responses, dysregulation of inflammatory signaling pathways, and increased cytokine production. Treatment of lupus nephritis remains a challenging issue in the management of systemic lupus erythematosus since the clinical presentation, response to treatment, and prognosis all vary considerably between patients and are influenced by ethnicity, gender, the degree of chronic kidney damage, pharmacogenomics, and non-immunological modulating factors. Elucidation of the various immunopathogenic pathways in lupus nephritis has resulted in the development of novel therapies, including biologics that target specific antigens on B lymphocytes to achieve B cell depletion, agents that modulate B cell proliferation and development, drugs that block co-stimulatory pathways, drugs that target T lymphocytes primarily, and therapies that target complement activation, signaling pathways, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and neutrophil extracellular traps. This review will discuss recent advances in the understanding of disease pathogenesis in lupus nephritis in the context of potential emerging therapies.

    Abstract Building precise and detailed parcellations of anatomically and functionally distinct brain areas has been a major focus in Neuroscience. Pioneer anatomists parcellated the cortical manifold based on extensive histological studies of post-mortem brain, harnessing local variations in cortical cyto- and myeloarchitecture to define areal boundaries. Compared to the cytoarchitectonic field, where multiple neuroimaging studies have recently translated this old legacy data into useful analytical resources, myeloarchitectonics, which parcellate the cortex based on the organization of myelinated fibers, has received less attention. Here, we present the neocortical surface-based myeloarchitectonic atlas based on the histology-derived maps of the Vogt-Vogt school and its 2D translation by Nieuwenhuys. In addition to a myeloarchitectonic parcellation, our package includes intracortical laminar profiles of myelin content based on Vogt-Vogt-Hopf original publications. Histology-derived myelin density mapped on our atlas demonstrated a close overlap with in vivo quantitative MRI markers for myelin and relates to cytoarchitectural features. Complementing the existing battery of approaches for digital cartography, the whole-brain myeloarchitectonic atlas offers an opportunity to validate imaging surrogate markers of myelin in both health and disease.
