June 2025 in “Neurology India” This case study describes a 17-year-old girl with Graves' disease who developed anti-signal recognition particle (SRP) positive necrotizing autoimmune myopathy (NAM) associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The patient presented with symptoms including proximal muscle weakness, dysphagia, weight loss, and a discoid rash, fulfilling the criteria for SLE. Laboratory tests revealed elevated creatine kinase levels and positive anti-SRP antibodies, confirming NAM. Despite the typical poor response of anti-SRP myopathy to corticosteroids, the patient showed significant improvement in muscle strength and CK levels after treatment with oral prednisolone and methotrexate. This case highlights the rare association of anti-SRP myopathy with SLE, expanding the spectrum of autoimmune diseases linked to anti-SRP myopathy.

July 2024 in “Frontiers in Oncology” This study investigated the tissue-sparing effects of ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) radiation compared to conventional radiation within a Spread-out Bragg Peak (SOBP) in a murine model. Using female CDF1 mice, the study assessed acute and late radiation-induced damage, with doses ranging from 19.9-49.7 Gy for conventional and 30.4-65.9 Gy for FLASH. Results showed that FLASH radiation provided significant normal tissue protection, with a mean protection ratio of 1.40 for acute skin toxicity and 1.18 for fibrotic development. The findings confirm that FLASH radiation within the SOBP maintains its tissue-sparing benefits, offering a 40% reduction in acute skin damage and an 18% reduction in fibrotic development compared to conventional radiation.
