An association between granuloma annulare (GA) and dyslipidaemia has been reported. Adipophilin expression may play a plausible role as a cutaneous biomarker for dyslipidaemia in patients with GA; however, this potential link remains to be explored. ⋯ Patients with positive adipophilin staining in their GA biopsies were found to be associated with a higher risk for both baseline and incident dyslipidaemia.

The present systematic review analyses the role of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFLT-1) as an indirect biomarker of endothelial dysfunction in sepsis or septic shock from articles published in PubMed between 2010 and March 2022. ⋯ It is evident that sepsis is based on endothelial dysfunction. sFLT-1 is one of the main biomarkers of microvascular alteration and is a predictive diagnostic and prognostic biomarker.
