Background The association between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), its modified indices (such as AIP-waist circumference [AIP-WC], AIP-waist-to-height ratio [AIP-WHtR], AIP-body mass index[AIP-BMI]), and incident stroke in individuals with ...

Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology
Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...

ABSTRACT Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is a key marker of atherogenic lipoprotein burden, but conventional plasma‐based testing requires venous sampling and centralized laboratory infrastructure. Dried blood spot (DBS) sampling offers a minimally invasive alternative suitable for decentralized settings.

Endogenous GLP‐1 and exogenous GLP‐1 RAs activate GLP‐1R‐expressing vagal afferents in the portal vein, projecting to the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS). This input engages brainstem–hypothalamic circuits that regulate metabolic homeostasis. Hypothalamic efferent vagal output to the liver suppresses lipogenesis, enhances triglyceride export, and ...

Higher A Body Shape Index (ABSI) was independently associated with increased abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) risk in hypertensive individuals and showed a linear positive relationship with AAC risk. ABSI may serve as a supplementary risk indicator, although its discriminative ability was limited. ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the
