Plasma and Synovial Fluid VEGF‐A and Neuropilin‐1 in Knee Osteoarthritis: Associations With Radiographic Severity, Pain Sensitization‐Related Features, and Disease Burden

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate associations of plasma and synovial fluid vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A) and neuropilin‐1 (NRP1) levels with radiographic severity, pain sensitization‐related features, and disease burden in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Plasma VEGF‐A and NRP1 were measured by sandwich ELISA in 120 patients with KOA (

Chemoproteomic discovery of a brain‐penetrant, covalent NLRP3 inhibitor that binds a novel allosteric pocket

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
NLRP3 is a promising inflammatory target, but existing inhibitors lack diversity and brain penetrance, and none are approved. Using chemoproteomics, we discovered a novel series that binds to Cys463 in a previously uncharacterized pocket. Compounds showed nanomolar potency, brain exposure, and in vivo suppression of IL‐1β, supporting neuroinflammatory ...

Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score Versus Restrictive Transfusion in Older Non‐Cardiac Surgery Patients: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Restrictive transfusion (Hb < 7 g/dL) is recommended for most perioperative patients, but the optimal threshold for those with cardiovascular disease or Hb 7–10 g/dL remains uncertain. The Perioperative Transfusion Trigger Score (POTTS), which integrates adrenaline requirement, FiO2, temperature, and angina history, may standardize ...

Integration of single-cell cis-expression quantitative trait locus and Mendelian randomization analyses identifies a Treg-specific gene for precision therapy in rheumatoid arthritis, gonarthrosis, and gouty arthritis

Journal of International Medical Research
Objective Arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis, gonarthrosis, and gouty arthritis, poses a substantial public health challenge. Regulatory T cells are critical for immune homeostasis, and their dysfunction contributes to arthritis pathogenesis ...

Procalcitonin may not be a differential diagnostic marker for bacterial infection in febrile patients with chronic gouty arthritis

Journal of International Medical Research, 2018
Objective This study aimed to examine the diagnostic value of serum procalcitonin (PCT) levels for identifying bacterial infection in febrile patients with chronic gouty arthritis.

Periodontal Medicine Rewired: Mechanisms Linking Periodontitis to Systemic Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This review reorganizes decades of research in periodontal medicine into a multi‐dimensional framework, illustrating how periodontitis influences systemic health through at least seven interconnected mechanisms. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is now recognized not merely as a localized oral condition but as a systemic disease linked to over 70 communicable and

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...

Effect of foot immersion and neck cooling on renal, intestinal, immune and inflammatory markers in older adults exposed to extreme heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Older adults with reduced thermoregulatory capabilities are increasingly at risk of heat‐related pathophysiological outcomes (e.g., acute kidney injury, heatstroke) due to increasingly frequent, prolonged and intense heatwaves. Foot immersion and neck cooling have been proposed as practical, non‐electrical cooling strategies for protecting ...
