Comparison Between Respiratory‐Triggered and Free‐Breathing Signal Acquisition Methods for Single‐Voxel Phosphorus Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of the Liver on a Clinical System

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The optimal protocol for clinical liver 31P‐magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) remains unclear. Single‐voxel 31P‐MRS using image‐selected in vivo spectroscopy (ISIS) employs respiratory‐triggering (RT) or free‐breathing (FB) acquisition.

Mapping Fatty Acid Composition in the Human Knee: Short‐Term Repeatability at 3T

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Alterations in periarticular lipid composition are implicated in musculoskeletal diseases, yet short‐term reliability of MRI‐based triglyceride composition mapping in the knee is not fully established. Purpose To evaluate 1‐week repeatability of proton‐density fat fraction (PDFF) and triglyceride fatty‐acid composition—saturated ...

Periodontitis during pregnancy: The effect on the gut microbiome and intestinal inflammation

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis has been epidemiologically associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, but causality remains difficult to establish in humans due to confounding factors. This study uses a controlled murine model to examine the effects of experimentally induced periodontitis on the composition of the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal

Peptic ulcer disease: Insights and risk factors

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Peptic ulcer disease (PUD), affects adults and children, with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection being the most frequent cause. Diagnosis requires an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) and invasive tests. However, besides H. pylori, risk factors for PUD in children remain unclear.

The role of endoplasmic reticulum in human adipose tissue [PDF]

Adipose tissue plays a central role in the regulation of metabolic homeostasis. In obesity adipocytes are challenged by many insults: surplus energy, inflammation, insulin resistance and considerable endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

Demographic and Clinical Characteristics of Early‐Onset Colorectal Cancer in Sweden and Finland: A Multicentre Retrospective Cohort Study Over Three Decades

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, and the proportion of individuals diagnosed under the age of 50 years, referred to as early‐onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC), is increasing. The aim of this study was to evaluate how the demographic and clinical features of EOCR in northern Sweden and Finland have changed over time ...

Identification of Clinical Factors Associated With the Immunogenicity of Homologous ChAdOx1‐nCoV‐19 Vaccine in Hemodialysis Patients

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at higher risk of severe COVID‐19 and may exhibit suboptimal vaccine responses. This study evaluates the factors influencing vaccine‐induced immunity in HD patients following the second dose of the Vaxzevria. A total of 276 HD patients and 126 controls were included. Antibody responses were assessed using binding
