Association of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist use with clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This TriNetX (US, 2016–2023) study compared clinical outcomes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes treated with GLP‐1 receptor agonists vs DPP4 inhibitors. ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate whether glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) are associated with improved survival and renal outcomes in patients with ...

Bath Treatments With Emamectin Benzoate Control Dactylogyrideans Infecting Colossoma macropomum Gills Without Altering Physiology of This Host Fish

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intensification of fish aquaculture worldwide has led to severe problems of diseases caused by parasitic dactylogyrideans. In this study, the anti‐dactylogyridean efficacy of treating Colossoma macropomum with baths of emamectin benzoate (EMB) was investigated for the first time, along with the effects of this treatment on the haematology and ...

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.

The clinical and physiological profiles of kissing stents in endovascular reconstruction of aortoiliac occlusive disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aortoiliac occlusive disease affecting the abdominal aorta and iliac arteries is conventionally treated with open surgical repair and is the mainstay of treatment. Endovascular techniques have become a less invasive alternative, especially for high‐risk patients.

Secondary Aortoduodenal Fistula Diagnosed after Repeated Gastrointestinal Bleeding Episodes in a Patient With Prior Aortic Graft Surgery

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Secondary aortoduodenal fistula (sADF) is a rare but life‐threatening complication after aortic graft surgery. Diagnosis is often challenging, particularly when contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CT) and endoscopy results are inconclusive. We report a case in which diagnosis was challenging due to contrast media allergy and non‐diagnostic ...
