A Retrospective Study of Adult and Pediatric D‐Dimer Tests to Identify Opportunities for Improved Utilization

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction D‐dimers are produced by lysis of cross‐linked fibrin. In children, D‐dimer testing is used to evaluate disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and some inflammatory states, but its use is not validated for screening or ruling out suspected venous thromboembolic events (VTE).

Interferon Regulatory Factor 2 (IRF2) Suppression Enhances Murine Cardiac Allograft Survival Through Immune Evasion

Immunology, EarlyView.
Our data show that suppressing IRF2, genetically or by siRNA, modulates PD‐L1 and MHC‐I levels. This induced immune‐evasive state critically underlies the significantly prolonged survival of cardiac allografts, revealing a novel therapeutic avenue.

The causal effects of hypothyroidism on cardiovascular disease: Bidirectional and multivariable Mendelian randomization study

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Our study suggests bidirectional causal associations between hypothyroidism and both coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI). Moreover, hypothyroidism contributes to an increased risk of peripheral atherosclerosis (PAS). ABSTRACT Background Whether hypothyroidism and cardiovascular disease (CVD) are causally related remains ...

The “Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial (RIGHT)” Study—Concept, Rationale, and Design

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial's (RIGHT) study is a single‐center, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial designed to test whether clazkizumab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, can improve or slow decline in physical, cognitive, and vascular function in older adults, when compared to a placebo.
