Caffeine increases aortic stiffness in hypertensive patients
, 2003 Background: Caffeine is the most widely used pharmacologic substance. Aortic stiffness is an important factor for cardiovascular system performance and a prognosticator of cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effect of caffeine on aortic stiffness in

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Chd4/NuRD and ThPOK cooperate to maintain transcriptional repression and nuclear organization in adult cardiomyocytes. Chd4 loss reduces miR‐150‐5p, relieving repression of Sprr1a, while ThPOK loss further enhances Sprr1a activation, possibly through altered chromatin–lamina interactions.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Basement membrane (BM) homeostasis relies on a balance between integrity, controlled remodelling and pathological degradation. Increased protease expression beneath the BM, along with reduced levels of endogenous protease inhibitors, drives the transition from a continuous, protective barrier to a discontinuous interface.

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Tenapanor, a minimally absorbed intestinal NHE3 inhibitor approved for hyperphosphatemia in dialysis, lowers phosphate and reduces intestinal sodium absorption. Its sodium–water signal may have implications beyond phosphate but remains poorly separated from diarrhea‐mediated losses and dialysis prescription artifacts. Methods This

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.We review the characteristic changes to the limb soft tissue and neurovascular abnormalities that have been described in the congenital limb birth defect, Radial Dysplasia. These include consistent changes in muscle anatomy or absence of specific muscles, persistent median arteries and absent radial arteries and consistent alterations in neural ...

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.This study designed a novel anterolateral screw placement technique and, based on this, developed a new anterolateral fixation method. Imaging, biomechanical, and short‐term efficacy analyses revealed that the Anterolateral Transpedicular Transverse Process Screw (ALTTS) technique achieves a high success rate for L5 vertebral fixation (pedicle width ...

Beneficial Effect of Vardenafil on Aortic Stiffness and Wave Reflections
, 2012 Although vardenafil is widely prescribed for erectile dysfunction (ED), its effect on arterial function is not defined. Aortic stiffness, aortic pressures, and wave reflections are predictors of cardiovascular risk.

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.
