Reproducibility of Splanchnic Blood Flow Measured Using Phase-Contrast MRI. [PDF]
Splanchnic vessel blood flow assessment can describe physiology or pathophysiological conditions. Here, we assessed the variation of PC‐MRI‐determined repeated measures of blood flow in four splanchnic vessels in three populations and two MRI‐scanners. We found similar agreements with the means for both scanners and for healthy individuals and patients

Does salinity make a difference-Kidney anatomy of Saimaa (Pusa saimensis) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica). [PDF]
Abstract As habitat salinity markedly differs between the endangered, freshwater‐dwelling Saimaa ringed seal (Pusa saimensis Nordquist, 1899) and the brackish water‐inhabiting Baltic ringed seal (Pusa hispida botnica Gmelin, 1788), we investigated whether this difference has resulted in morphological changes to their kidneys.

CD4+ T cells decrease in elderly and frailty SCAP patients, which indicates a worse outcome. CD4+ T cells combined with PCT are powerful prognostic biomarkers in evaluating the severity of community‐acquired pneumonia. Abstract Backgrounds Elderly and frailty individuals show a more senescent immune system, which may relate to worse outcome in ...

Vascular calcification: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions
Vascular calcification is caused by the imbalance of vascular microenvironment. The pro‐calcific factors include chronic inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, iron homeostasis, programed cell death, and other cellular metabolic dynamics.
