Review catalogs molecular drivers and emerging treatments for rheumatic diseases

A compiled bibliography surveys decades of research into the molecular causes of rheumatic diseases, including studies on cytokine signaling, anti-TNF and JAK-targeting therapies, and trials examining whether drug tapering is feasible in patients in remission. The list spans foundational papers from the 1990s through recent 2022 reviews on disease mechanisms and treatment strategies.

Researchers push to develop standardized tests for immune system health

A commentary in Nature argues that current clinical tools—such as white blood cell counts or C-reactive protein tests—only offer a fragmented view of immune function, failing to capture whether a person's immune system is resilient or declining. The authors say advances in immunology, molecular profiling, imaging and AI could enable development of a comprehensive 'immunome' measurement to assess immune health more completely.
