Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView., 2023 In the present study, we created the weight gain models with Min and Yorkshire pigs and conducted the metagenomics and metabolomics of colon contents and transcriptomics of colon tissue. Further, we revealed the characteristics and functions of the colonic microbiota in Min and Yorkshire pigs and analyzed their interactions with the host. Overall, this

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1192-1198, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background As previously reported, an increased repolarization temporal imbalance induces a higher risk of total/cardiovascular mortality. Hypothesis The aim of this study was to assess if the electrocardiographic short period markers of repolarization temporal dispersion could be predictive of the hospital stay length and mortality in ...

A remote hypertension management program clinical algorithm
Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1147-1162, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Introduction Hypertension is the leading risk factor for death, affecting over one billion people worldwide, yet control rates are poor and stagnant. We developed a remote hypertension management program that leverages digitally transmitted home blood pressure (BP) measurements, algorithmic care pathways, and patient–navigator communications ...

Predicting progression of aortic stenosis by measuring serum calcification propensity
Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1297-1302, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background The aim of this prospective, double‐blinded study in patients with aortic sclerosis was to determine whether a new calcification propensity measure in the serum could predict disease progression. Methods We included 129 consecutive patients with aortic sclerosis as assessed during a routine clinical echocardiographic exam. Clinical,

Body mass index predicts aldosterone production in hypertensive postmenopausal women
Clinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2020 Hypertension is a common clinical problem, and increased aldosterone is the most prevalent underlying characteristic. Related works have shown exciting results on the effects of various conditions on aldosterone content, but the correlation between ...

Effect of aldosterone on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of human peritoneal mesothelial cells
Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2015 Background: Peritoneal fibrosis is one of the major causes of technical failure in patients on peritoneal dialysis. Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of the peritoneum is an early and reversible mechanism of peritoneal fibrosis. Human peritoneal
