Impact of barometric pressure on blood pressure during dialysis: Introducing intradialytic time‐averaged cumulative systolic blood pressure (TACsBP‐inD) as a new metric

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 525-534, June 2025.
Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,

Contact Activation Is Alleviated by Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Klinefelter Syndrome: Evidence of Hormonal and Metabolic Modulation

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome is associated with a markedly increased risk of venous thrombosis. While hypogonadism and metabolic dysfunction are known contributors, the role of the contact activation system in Klinefelter syndrome remains unexplored.

In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Decellularized Porcine Femoral Aorta Reinforced With Electrospun Coarse Polycaprolactone Fibers for Vascular Graft Application

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aims to develop a hybrid small‐diameter vascular graft by combining electrospun PCL with decellularized porcine femoral aorta (PECM). The graft showed complete decellularization, strong mechanical integrity, and no layer delamination.

Studies on the effect of dietary fish oil on the physical and chemical properties of low density lipoproteins in cynomolgus monkeys.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
To determine the effect of isocaloric substitution of dietary fish oil for lard on the physical and chemical properties of plasma low density lipoproteins (LDL), ten adult male cynomolgus monkeys were fed diets containing 11% (by weight) fish oil or lard

New perspectives on VEGF signalling in Alzheimer's disease

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Emery et al. bring together findings from recent multi‐omic studies, including single‐cell mRNA analysis of human post‐mortem brain tissue, and proteomic analysis of matched CSF and blood samples in large clinical studies. The authors present evidence of the involvement of altered VEGF signalling in vascular and immune dysfunction and neurodegeneration

Identification of ACAT1- and ACAT2-specific inhibitors using a novel, cell-based fluorescence assay

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Acyl CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and ACAT2 are enzymes responsible for the formation of cholesteryl esters in tissues. While both ACAT1 and ACAT2 are present in the liver and intestine, the cells containing either enzyme within these ...

Incidence and Characteristics of HBV Reactivation‐Related Events Following HBsAg Seroclearance: Long‐Term Follow‐up of a Population‐Based Cohort in Japan

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In a population‐based cohort in Japan, HBV reactivation‐related events were observed after HBsAg seroclearance, including one virologically confirmed hepatic flare occurring spontaneously without chemotherapy or immunosuppression. These findings indicate that HBsAg seroclearance does not always represent complete viral eradication, supporting the need ...
