Whole blood transcriptomics atlas across human diseases
Abstract We present a WBT Atlas, comprising 4444 WBT samples across 98 distinct health conditions, enabling systematic exploration of disease-associated transcriptomic signatures. Health condition–specific profiles are characterized across immune, metabolic, and cell-type specific features at the gene, gene module, and pathway levels.
Evaluation of ICAM and VCAM as biomarkers in serum and bronchoscopic lavage samples of lung cancer patients
Background: This study aimed to assess the diagnostic and prognostic potential of adhesion molecules ICAM-1, ICAM-2, and VCAM-1 by analyzing their levels in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples from patients with lung cancer. Methods: This prospective, single-center, cross-sectional study was conducted at the chest diseases clinic of Atatürk University Faculty of Medicine from March 2024 to May 2025.

One stone two birds: anti-inflammatory bronchodilators as a potential pharmacological strategy for COVID-19
1 Introduction of SARS-CoV-2 The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 was reported in December 2019 and could cause COVID-19. It gained its name due to its similarity to SARS-CoV given by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV) (Coronaviridae Study Group of the International Committee on Taxonomy of V, 2020). Externally, SARS-CoV-2 are usually spherical particles with a diameter of approximately 60–220 nanometers.
Evaluation of the relationship between TREM‐1/TREM‐2 ratio and clinical course in COVID‐19 pneumonia
Abstract Objective The inflammatory/anti-inflammatory balance has an important role in the clinical course of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19), which has affected over 100 million people since it first appeared in China in December 2019. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM)-1/TREM-2 ratio and COVID-19 severity.
Is endogenous carboxyhaemoglobin level a useful biomarker of clinical course and prognosis in COVID‐19 patients?
Abstract Objective SARS-CoV-2 has caused nearly 4 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide in the approximately 4 months since it emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019. Comorbidities increase morbidity and mortality in COVID-19, and many laboratory parameters have been associated with mortality. The aim of the present study was to identify the relationship between endogenous carboxyhaemoglobin (COHb) level and the clinical course and prognosis of COVID-19.

Evaluation of the relationship between laboratory parameters and pulmonary function tests in COVID‐19 patients
What is already known about this topic? It was also reported that pulmonary function tests performed at discharge revealed no significant difference in forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) or forced vital capacity (FVC) values between COVID‐19 patients with mild, moderate, and severe pneumonia, whereas diffusion capacity decreased in correlation with disease severity.
