Clinical Characteristics and Management of Infective Native Arterial Aneurysms Associated with BCG Therapy for Bladder Cancer.
(PubMed, Ann Vasc Surg)
- "BCG-induced INAAis a rare but life-threatening complication and early recognition is critical. Optimal management involves targeted antimicrobial therapy and timely surgical intervention, either open or endovascular, based on the patient's condition and aneurysm characteristics."

Unveiling genetic signatures of immune response in immune-related diseases through single-cell eQTL analysis across diverse conditions.
(PubMed, Nat Commun)
- "We map genetic effects on gene expression (expression quantitative trait locus, eQTL) using single-cell transcriptomes of 152 samples from 38 healthy individuals, covering baseline state and lipopolysaccharide challenge either before or after Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccination...Of note, our results support the pivotal roles of SLFN5 in COVID-19 pathogenesis by incorporating disease-associated loci, chromatin accessibility, and transcription factor binding affinities, aligning with the established functions of SLFN5 in restricting virus replication during viral infection. Our study provides a paradigm to decipher genetic underpinnings of complex traits by integrating single-cell eQTLs with multi-omics data from patients and public databases."

Genetic regulators of cytokine responses upon BCG vaccination in children from West Africa.
(PubMed, J Genet Genomics)
- "Here, we aimed to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) controlling cytokine responses (cQTLs) after microbial stimulation in infants of West-African ancestry, comprising of low-birth-weight neonates randomized to BCG vaccine-at-birth (intervention) or to the usual delayed BCG (control)...We observed limited overlap of common cQTLs between the West-African infants and cohorts of Western European individuals. These data reveal strong population-specific genetic effects on cytokine production and may indicate new opportunities for therapeutic intervention and vaccine development in African populations."
