Interfacial engineering of cobalt tungstate-halloysite nanotube nanocomposite for electrochemical detection of synthetic vanillin in food matrices.

In processed foods and medicine, synthetic vanillin is widely used, although excessive intake poses toxicological risks. Due to the rising usage of synthetic vanillin in food products and associated health hazards, quick, sensitive, and reliable analytical methods are needed to precisely measure vanillin in complex food matrices. This work introduces a CoWO4@F-HNT/GCE nanocomposite as an efficient electrocatalytic modifier for glassy carbon electrodes aimed at trace-level synthetic vanillin detection. Structural and microscopic analyses confirmed phase-pure monoclinic CoWO4, preservation of the tubular aluminosilicate framework, and homogeneous nanoparticle anchoring on F-HNT. Differential pulse voltammetry provided a broad linear range from 0.01 to 372.14 μM and a low detection limit of 4.3 nM, together with excellent selectivity against common interferents, good cycling stability, and high inter-electrode reproducibility. These characteristics position the CoWO4@F-HNT-modified electrode as a cost-effective and reliable platform for on-site quality control of synthetic vanillin in complex food matrices.

Molecular mechanisms of natural de novo shoot organogenesis and their applications.

Natural de novo shoot organogenesis (DNSO) is the spontaneous regeneration of shoots from wound sites outside the shoot apical region through endogenous developmental programs. This regenerative capacity enables plants to recover from severe tissue damage by re-establishing the shoot-root axis. Here, we review current knowledge about the molecular mechanisms of natural DNSO, focusing on transcriptomic and physiological studies in model plants. Accumulating evidence suggests that natural DNSO proceeds through three sequential phases: (i) early wound responses, characterized by the activation of the WIND1-ESR1 module and the establishment of apical-basal auxin asymmetry; (ii) cellular proliferation driven by metabolic and cell-cycle reprogramming; and (iii) cytokinin-mediated establishment of shoot apical meristem identity. We also discuss how these mechanistic insights have been harnessed for practical applications, including tissue culture-free transformation systems such as the cut-dip-budding (CDB) method, and developmental reprogramming strategies that employ ectopic expression of developmental regulator (DR) genes to induce DNSO in otherwise recalcitrant species. Together, these advances illustrate how understanding natural regeneration can guide the development of simplified, broadly applicable plant transformation technologies.

Control of foreign DNA: emerging roles of xenogeneic silencers.

Bacteria continuously acquire foreign DNA through horizontal gene transfer, yet its successful integration depends on regulatory mechanisms that balance genome protection with evolutionary innovation. Xenogeneic silencers are central to this process: they preferentially bind AT-rich DNA, a common feature of many horizontally acquired genetic elements, and repress its transcription. Recent studies, however, reveal a much broader regulatory repertoire. Beyond transcriptional repression, these proteins contribute to chromosome organization by forming higher-order nucleoprotein complexes and phase-separated condensates that shape bacterial nucleoid architecture. Furthermore, they play roles in regulating bacteriophage infection cycles, including mechanisms by which phages hijack host silencing activities for their own benefit. Their extensive regulatory reach, spanning virulence genes, biofilm formation, specialized metabolite production, and mobile genetic elements (MGEs), underscores their central role in connecting environmental signals, including fluctuations in the second messenger c-di-GMP, with gene expression, and genome organization. The diversification of xenogeneic silencers across bacterial chromosomes, plasmids, phages, and other MGEs highlights their evolutionary significance. Together, these recent findings position xenogeneic silencers as dynamic regulatory modules that shape the fate of foreign DNA across the horizontal gene transfer network.

A chromosome-level, haplotype-resolved genome assembly for the barn owl, Tyto alba.

Recent advances in long-read sequencing have enabled near telomere-to-telomere (T2T) assemblies across diverse taxa. However, avian genomes remain challenging due to numerous microchromosomes, small, typically < 20Mb, DNA molecules that are gene-, GC-, and repeat-rich. As a consequence, microchromosomes are often missing from genome assemblies. Here, we present a chromosome-level, haplotype-resolved genome assembly for the Western barn owl (Tyto alba). Using a trio-binning strategy with Illumina parental reads combined with PacBio HiFi and Oxford Nanopore Technologies data, we generated two phased contig sets. These were scaffolded into 40 linkage groups using a linkage map. Comparative analyses identified unplaced HiFi scaffolds corresponding to microchromosomes, which we integrated into six additional microchromosomes using long reads information. The two assemblies present 46 chromosomes, matching the karyotype of the species. They exhibit strong synteny between parental haplotypes, except for a ∼38 Mb complex region on chromosome 7 containing nested inversions. This high-quality reference provides a haplotype-resolved and chromosome-level genome for Strigiformes, enabling fine-scale studies of structural variation and avian genome evolution.

Unraveling a Diagnostic Enigma: A TECPR2 Case Solved Through Multi-Omic Genomics.

TECPR2 is a key regulator of autophagy, encoded by the TECPR2 gene. Pathogenic variants in this gene have been linked to a rare hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy with intellectual disability (HSAN9). We report a teenage female with a syndromic intellectual disability disorder associated with neuromuscular abnormalities. Multi-omics analysis including genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, together with muscle biopsy from the affected individual, were used in this clinical case. Through trio exome sequencing we identified two heterozygous variants in the TECPR2 gene, NM_014844.4: c.480G>A; p.(Gln160=) and c.2846C>A; p.(Ala949Glu). Both were classified as variants of uncertain significance due to the lack of supporting evidence for pathogenicity. Subsequent long-read sequencing phased the variants and confirmed they were in trans. Additional functional studies using RNAseq and proteomics analyses verified the pathogenicity of the variants. This case study demonstrated the value of a multi-omics assisted analysis, which complemented the traditional phenotype-first approach in reaching a definitive clinical diagnosis.

Integrated Telehealth Rehabilitation and Quality of Life in Mechanically Ventilated Adults: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

IMPORTANCE: Whether integrated rehabilitation strategies spanning intensive care unit (ICU), hospital, and postdischarge phases improve quality of life after acute respiratory failure is uncertain. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of an integrated multicomponent telehealth-based rehabilitation intervention on health-related quality of life at 90 days after hospital discharge among adults with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This stepped-wedge cluster randomized clinical trial in ICUs of 20 public hospitals in Brazil enrolled adults with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation between June 2024 and May 2025, with follow-up through September 2025. INTERVENTIONS: A multicomponent telehealth-based rehabilitation program integrating an ICU telehealth-based rehabilitation intervention focused on ventilator liberation; a ward telehealth-based rehabilitation intervention targeting risk stratification and initiation of individualized rehabilitation plans; and a postdischarge telehealth-based rehabilitation intervention consisting of a 2-month personalized centralized telerehabilitation program. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Health-related quality of life at 90 days after hospital discharge, measured using the EuroQol 5-Dimension 3-Level (EQ-5D-3L) utility score (range, -0.17 [worse than death] to 1 [best health state], with 0 representing death). RESULTS: Among 1916 enrolled patients (mean [SD] age, 60.6 [17.3] years; 43.6% female), 1063 were assigned to the intervention and 853 to usual care per local protocols. At 90 days after hospital discharge, mean (SD) EQ-5D-3L utility scores were higher in the intervention group than in the usual care group (0.16 [0.31] vs 0.12 [0.28]; adjusted difference, 0.049; 95% CI, 0.0002 to 0.098; P = .04) but did not differ among survivors (0.60 [0.32] vs 0.59 [0.32]; adjusted difference, -0.045; 95% CI, -0.138 to 0.045; P = .34). Compared with usual care, the intervention resulted in lower 90-day all-cause mortality (71.8% [676 of 941] vs 78.3% [584 of 746]; adjusted difference, -7.6%; 95% CI, -14.7% to -0.6%; P = .03) and shorter mean (SD) mechanical ventilation duration (9.9 [10.3] vs 15.5 [15.9] days; adjusted difference, -6.2 days; 95% CI, -8.5 to -3.9; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this study, an integrated telehealth-based rehabilitation strategy delivered across ICU, hospital, and postdischarge phases improved 90-day health-related quality of life, potentially influenced by reduced mortality.

Electroencephalographic evidence of cortical network disruption preceding overt cardioinhibition during tilt-induced reflex syncope.

OBJECTIVE: Reflex syncope is a common cause of transient loss of consciousness. However, the early cerebral mechanisms underlying cardiovascular changes remain poorly understood. Our objective was to investigate early cerebral changes by quantitatively analyzing EEG activity preceding overt cardioinhibition during tilt-induced reflex syncope. METHODS: EEG recordings from patients undergoing tilt testing were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who experienced reflex syncope were compared to those who did not. Spectral and functional connectivity analyses were performed across baseline, pre-cardioinhibition, and syncopal phases. RESULTS: Prior to the onset of cardioinhibitory pathological reflex, a significant increase in theta-band spectral power was observed in the right temporal region, accompanied by a widespread increase in functional connectivity within the same frequency band. These findings suggest the involvement of brain networks before cardioinhibition. CONCLUSIONS: EEG changes in the theta band (power and functional connectivity) were observed before overt cardioinhibition during tilt-induced reflex syncope. SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings support the hypothesis of cortical processing preceding cardioinhibition in reflex syncope. EEG may represent a valuable complementary tool for improving the understanding and diagnosis of these events.

Development of the zebrafish foveal analogue: a quantitative atlas of high-acuity zone growth and retinal regionalisation.

The vertebrate retina contains specialised regions for high-acuity vision, exemplified by the human fovea and its zebrafish analogue, the high-acuity zone (HAZ). Despite the widespread use of zebrafish to model retinal disease, a stage-resolved quantitative reference describing normal eye, photoreceptor layer (PRL) and lens growth has been lacking. Here, we apply contrast-enhanced micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) to construct the first three-dimensional micro-CT normative atlas of wild-type zebrafish eye development across five larval stages [3, 5, 7, 10 and 18 days post-fertilisation (dpf)], mapping circumferential PRL thickness, eye and lens morphology, and compartment growth rates. Regional PRL thickening within the temporo-ventral region of the expected HAZ emerged by 5 dpf and was sustained by a localised redistribution of growth, persisting and extending towards the optic nerve through 18 dpf. The PRL, lens and eye grew through four phases, alternating between disproportionate PRL expansion and coordinated growth, while the eye remodelled from a nasal-dominant to a temporo-ventral-dominant form. This regional specialisation was protracted relative to gross ocular growth and could proceed independently of it, paralleling the extended postnatal maturation of the human fovea. This atlas provides a quantitative baseline for distinguishing disease-induced changes from normal variation, supporting zebrafish models of foveal hypoplasia and related disorders.

Parallel evolutionary trajectories rewire enteropathogenic Escherichia coli adhesion to restore host attachment.

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) causes disease in children, presenting as chronic diarrhea that can impair physical and cognitive development. The attachment of typical EPEC (tEPEC) to the gut epithelium via bundle-forming pili (BFP) is a key factor in its virulence. Yet, infections by atypical EPEC (aEPEC), which lack BFP, have become increasingly common. To investigate how aEPEC recover host-attachment in the absence of BFP, we performed experimental evolution using a non-adherent E. coli, constructed to mimic the ancestor of aEPEC, and selected adherent progeny. Highly adherent variants evolved through phase-variable activation of type I fimbriae (T1F), followed by two alternative trajectories: bacterial filamentation, which increases T1F avidity, or point mutations in the T1F adhesin FimH that enhance ligand affinity. Extending our analysis to the genomes of 327 aEPEC strains isolated from infected patients revealed that similar FimH mutations are common. We further demonstrated experimentally that these naturally occurring variants often increase epithelial-attachment. Our findings implicate T1F in aEPEC pathogenesis and suggest it may be clinically relevant for anti-adhesion therapy. More broadly, these results indicate that impaired host-attachment can be rapidly compensated by upregulating and optimizing an alternative adhesin, and that combining experimental evolution with comparative genomics can reveal evolutionary trajectories occurring in nature.

Molecular mechanisms of neuroendocrine regulation of molting in the Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis): A transcriptomic analysis based on eyestalk ablation model.

Molting disability severely restricts the sustainable aquaculture of the Chinese mitten crab, yet the neuroendocrine mechanisms coordinating physiological responses remain poorly understood. Using unilateral eyestalk ablation to remove the primary source of molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH), we performed time-resolved transcriptomic profiling of the thoracic ganglion at 24 h (early premolt) and 48 h (ecdysis) post-ablation. We identified 2825 differentially expressed genes and uncovered a biphasic molecular response. At 24 h, the thoracic ganglion activates pathways associated with neuromuscular adaptation, oxidative stress, and cardiac muscle contraction. Notably, the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway is selectively rewired: cytochrome P450 ω-hydroxylases (CYP2J2, CYP4V2) are upregulated, while competing branches (epoxide hydrolase, cyclooxygenase) are suppressed, promoting local synthesis of the potent vasoconstrictor 20-HETE within the thoracic ganglion. This enzymatic switch provides a mechanistic link between MIH withdrawal and the local generation of elevated hemolymph pressure required for molting. By 48 h, the transcriptional program shifts toward chitin-based extracellular matrix remodeling, glycosphingolipid biosynthesis, and synaptic reorganization. Collectively, our findings redefine the thoracic ganglion as an active neuroendocrine integrator that translates reduced MIH signaling into phased physiological outputs, revealing a "neuro-endocrine-hemolymph pressure" regulatory axis. This study provides novel molecular targets (e.g., CYP2J2, CHS1, UGCG) for mitigating molting disability in E. sinensis aquaculture.

Morphological changes and transcriptomic insights into skeletal development of embryos and larvae of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius.

To explore morphological features and molecular dynamics underlying skeletogenesis in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius, we conducted combined morphological observation and comparative transcriptome analyses across representative embryonic and larval developmental stages. Morphological results showed that triradiate spicules first emerged at the gastrula stage. The 8-arm pluteus stage was identified as a key phase for skeletal remodeling, during which new three-radiate crystals transformed into complex stereoscopic ossicles including tube feet, spines and test plates. Transcriptomic data indicated that most differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were downregulated from the blastula to gastrula. The altered expression of basal metabolic genes and extracellular matrix genes including Colp2α and calm may be correlated with the linear mineralization of early spicules, which potentially reflects an energy adjustment pattern in developing larvae. During the transition from 6-arm to 8-arm pluteus, expression changes of calmodulin-like, Colp2α and SISin18G001660 suggest potential associations with regional calcium deposition and modifications of skeletal matrix properties. This work systematically characterizes morphological traits and transcriptional dynamics of skeletogenesis in S. intermedius. Its early spiculogenesis follows the conserved developmental pattern of echinoderms, while massive formation of stereoscopic ossicles occurs at the 8-arm pluteus stage. Stage-specific transcriptional changes across key larval skeletogenic stages are uncovered, offering transcriptomic resources for functional verification of skeletal regulatory genes.

Integrative analysis of transcriptome and DNA methylome dynamics during caudal fin regeneration in silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus).

Caudal fin regeneration in teleost fish is a complex, multi-stage process involving coordinated molecular and cellular changes. While the role of epigenetic regulation particularly DNA methylation has been studied in model freshwater species such as zebrafish, its contribution to regeneration in marine teleosts remains largely unexplored. In this study, we integrated transcriptomic and DNA methylomic data to characterize the temporal dynamics of gene expression and methylation during caudal fin regeneration in the silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus). Using RNA-sequencing and reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) at three biologically critical time points 1, 3, and 7 days post-amputation (dpa), we characterized the spatiotemporal molecular landscape of caudal fin regeneration. These time points capture the key transitional phases of wound healing and inflammation (1 dpa), blastema formation and progenitor proliferation (3 dpa), and regenerative outgrowth with tissue remodeling (7 dpa), enabling robust detection of the major molecular programs underlying epimorphic regeneration. Concurrently, CG-methylome analysis identified thousands of dynamically changing differentially methylated regions (DMRs). A strong global inverse correlation was observed between promoter methylation and gene expression. Integrative analysis pinpointed key regeneration genes (fgf20a, msxb, sox9b) whose expression was associated with dynamic methylation changes in their promoters or gene bodies. We conclude that DNA methylation is a dynamic and key regulatory layer that acts in concert with transcriptional reprogramming to coordinate tissue regeneration, providing new insights into the epigenetic mechanisms underlying complex regenerative processes in teleosts.

Uncovering parental exposure risks of TCPP: Impaired development and metabolic homeostasis in zebrafish offspring.

As brominated flame retardants are phased out, tris (1‑chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCPP), a phosphorus-based flame retardant, has emerged as a prominent detectable flame retardant in the environment. However, TCPP has been found to exhibit endocrine-disrupting effects on organisms, raising significant safety concerns. In our study, we utilized the zebrafish model to explore the toxic effects of parental TCPP exposure on offspring and uncover its regulatory mechanisms through metabolomics analysis. Moreover, the impact on the nervous system and lipid metabolism was examined through behavioral analysis and specific staining. Our findings demonstrated that both embryonic and parental TCPP exposure induced developmental disorders in larvae, along with decreased locomotor activity and disordered lipid metabolism homeostasis. Parental exposure to TCPP, exhibiting stronger developmental toxicity than direct embryonic exposure, notably led to reductions in crucial energy substrates such as amino acids and carbohydrates. Meanwhile, embryonic TCPP exposure primarily affected the endogenous lipid-related metabolites including phospholipids, lipid-soluble vitamins, steroids and fatty acids, promoting lipid accumulation in larval liver and subcutaneous tissue. What's more, continuously parental and embryonic exposure showed the most pronounced effects on zebrafish development and metabolic regulation. Our study highlights the risk posed by parental exposure to TCPP on offspring zebrafish, underscoring the need for comprehensive consideration of the impact from parental exposure in pollutants regulation.

Single-cell transcriptomics reveals heterogeneous stress responses and Mg2+-mediated survival mechanisms in Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus during freeze-drying and storage.

Maintaining the viability of lactic acid bacteria during dehydration and subsequent storage remains a significant challenge. Here, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing to reveal the heterogeneous stress responses of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, identifying seven distinct transcriptional clusters across the liquid culture, freeze-drying, and storage phases. The dominant clusters in the freeze-drying and storage were not completely consistent, showing significant functional differentiation. Genomic stability may be important for survival during freeze-drying and storage, while intracellular energy homeostasis appears important for viability during storage. The magnesium transporter mgtB was highly expressed in clusters tolerant to freeze-drying and storage, suggesting a critical role for Mg2+ homeostasis. Further experimental validation confirmed that Mg2+ treatment significantly bolstered stress resistance, increasing immediate post-freeze-drying survival by over 2-fold (up to 92.90%) and post-storage survival by over 5-fold (up to 5.98%). Proteomic data indicated that Mg2+ supplementation correlated with the maintenance of several biological functions potentially relevant to bacterial survival during freeze-drying and storage, including DNA repair, translation, and central carbon metabolism. These findings provide a map of microbial stress resistance through population heterogeneity and offer a potential strategy that may be adapted for enhancing the stability of other industrial lactic acid bacteria products.

Exploratory identification and cellular functional characterization of ppiabl as a candidate gene associated with growth traits in Paralichthys olivaceus.

The Japanese flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) is an important mariculture species. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying its growth traits remain poorly understood. To explore the genetic basis of growth variation, whole-genome resequencing was performed in a cultured cohort of 60 individuals, followed by exploratory genome-wide association analysis and candidate-gene prioritization. The results revealed heritability estimates of 0.40 for body weight and 0.24 for body length, with substantial overlap in associated loci between the two traits. Exploratory association and variant-annotation analyses prioritized ppiabl, which carries a nonconservative missense variant, as a candidate gene for further investigation. Tissue expression analysis showed that ppiabl was highly expressed in muscle tissue. This gene encodes a protein belonging to the conserved peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase family. In Japanese flounder primary muscle cells, ppiabl knockdown was associated with altered expression of growth-related genes and an increased G1-phase fraction, whereas overexpression produced changes in the opposite direction. In line with this, fast-growing individuals were found to have significantly larger muscle fiber areas than slow-growing ones. These findings suggest that ppiabl may be involved in muscle-related cellular processes associated with growth variation in Japanese flounder, although its contribution to whole-animal growth requires further validation. Overall, this exploratory study prioritizes ppiabl as a candidate gene potentially associated with growth-related cellular processes in Japanese flounder, although validation in larger independent populations and in vivo models is required.

Transcriptome analysis of the pectoral fin degeneration in half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis).

Appendage degeneration is a notable morphological feature of some teleosts with specialized benthic lifestyles. The half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) undergoes severe pectoral fin regression during metamorphosis. However, the molecular basis underlying rapid pectoral fin degeneration remains unclear. Here, we performed time-series transcriptome sequencing on pectoral fins at pre-metamorphosis, metamorphosis peak and post-metamorphosis to characterize the molecular changes associated with pectoral fin degeneration. Transcriptional dynamics and functional enrichment showed that no significant enrichment of classical apoptosis-related transcriptional pathways was detected during pectoral fin degeneration. Instead, sustained downregulation of twist1b, identified as a transcriptomic candidate, together with significant upregulation of ssh1, coupled with enrichment of lysosome and ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) pathways, suggested enhanced tissue remodeling during pectoral fin degeneration. Temporal expression clustering revealed heterochronic misalignment in the developmental gene expression: upstream initiator tbx5 was upregulated at early metamorphosis, while downstream maintenance signal fgf10 decreased synchronously. Distal patterning gene hoxd12a exhibited premature expression and rapid decay, losing sustained late-phase expression. Moreover, transient elevation of gli3 during metamorphosis may contribute to restricted distal fin growth. We conclude that pectoral fin degeneration in C. semilaevis is associated with heterochronic disruption of developmental signaling and extensive tissue remodeling. This study provides transcriptomic insights into pectoral fin degeneration in tongue soles and establishes a basis for future functional studies of appendage reduction in teleosts.

Hybrid robotic transversus abdominis release (hrTAR) for complex ventral hernias: a systematic review and preliminary synthesis.

Hybrid robotic transversus abdominis release (hrTAR) combines robotic posterior component separation with a planned limited open phase. Evidence supporting this strategy is sparse. Following PRISMA 2020, we searched PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library and registered the protocol in PROSPERO (CRD420261303285). Eligible studies reported hrTAR outcomes for ventral or incisional hernia repair. Findings were synthesized narratively; no pooled effect estimates were calculated. Three reports contained 85 hrTAR cohort entries. Because two reports came from the same institution and overlap could not be excluded, this total should not be interpreted as a unique-patient count. Surgical-site outcomes were heterogeneous: two reports used SSO endpoints (4% and 5%), whereas another reported surgical-site events in 25% of patients, including seroma and wound infection. Mean length of stay ranged from 1.8 to 3.7 days; the sample-size-weighted mean across studies reporting means was 2.9 days. One propensity-matched comparison reported shorter hospitalization and lower 30-day SSO with hrTAR than open TAR. No perioperative deaths or recurrences were reported during limited follow-up. hrTAR appears feasible in selected patients, but available evidence is exploratory. Standardized prospective multicenter studies with non-overlapping cohorts and longer follow-up are needed before comparative effectiveness, economic value, or wider adoption can be supported.

The emerging applications of JAK inhibitors in dermatology - a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are established treatments for selected dermatologic conditions, but their off-label use has expanded across refractory skin diseases. METHODS: We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science from inception to October 1, 2025, for studies reporting off-label JAK inhibitor use in dermatologic disorders beyond approved or late-phase trial indications. RESULTS: Of 9,182 records screened, 277 studies met the inclusion criteria, comprising 210 case reports, 55 case series, and 12 retrospective studies involving 764 patients. Owing to substantial clinical heterogeneity, findings were narratively synthesized using a structured disease-family framework. Off-label use most commonly involved lichenoid, neutrophilic, and granulomatous dermatoses. Overall, 725/764 (94.88%) patients experienced clinical benefit, including complete or near-complete response in 209/764 (27.35%) and significant or partial improvement in 516/764 (67.53%). Thirty-five patients (4.58%) showed no clinical change, and four (0.52%) experienced disease worsening. A total of 154 adverse events were reported, most commonly with tofacitinib; most were mild to moderate, although six were serious and 25 resulted in treatment discontinuation. CONCLUSION: JAK inhibitors demonstrate promising therapeutic potential across a broad spectrum of refractory dermatological diseases. The predominance of uncontrolled case-based evidence, heterogeneous dosing, and frequent combination therapy limits attribution of efficacy and safety to JAK inhibitor monotherapy. Prospective controlled studies are needed to better define their therapeutic role.
