Cardiac troponin at the point of care in acute and chronic coronary syndromes
Abstract High‐sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs‐cTn) assays are integral to the assessment of patients with acute chest pain where prompt and accurate diagnosis of myocardial infarction enables timely delivery of potentially life‐saving treatment. In the Emergency Department, implementation of central laboratory hs‐cTn assays has reduced length of stay ...

In a population of patients with stable CAD, circulating levels of PCSK9 are independently associated with the progression of adverse coronary plaque phenotypes, as assessed by serial coronary computed tomography angiography. At RNA‐seq analysis of whole blood, PCSK9 was linked to the expression of genes involved in the innate‐immune response.

The Landscape of SPP1+ Macrophages Across Tissues and Diseases: A Comprehensive Review
SPP1+ macrophages represent a conserved, disease‐associated population present across cancerous and non‐cancerous conditions, involved in immunosuppression, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, phagocytosis, and other cellular processes. This review highlights their shared molecular programmes across tissues, their interactions with stromal and immune cells ...
