A lack of vitamin B2 makes tumour cells more susceptible to a unique form of cell death. This was discovered by researchers at the Rudolf Virchow Centre at the University of Würzburg.

First published in 2010, the EULAR recommendations for the management of RA, the most frequent inflammatory rheumatic disease, have been relied upon by healthcare professionals and organisations worldwide to offer an up-to-date and robust analysis of the effectiveness and practical use of available DMARDs – from conventional agents such as methotrexate to biologics and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors.

The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) and the Global Lung Function Initiative (GLI) have published a joint statement on the use and interpretation of spirometry for the diagnosis of COPD.
