An intracellular recombinant single‐chain variable antibody fragment as a new class of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger involved in human (patho‐)physiology. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) is a major cGMP hydrolyzing enzyme in many cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Several highly selective PDE5 inhibitors are in clinical use. However, there are currently no

Absence of Interaction Between 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors and Glucocorticoids on Incidence of Myocardial Infarction in People With Type 2 Diabetes

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims People with Type 2 diabetes experience higher cardiometabolic risk, and both synthetic glucocorticoids and use of 5α‐reductase inhibitors have been individually linked to increased risk of myocardial infarction. We tested whether the increase in risk is exacerbated by co‐prescription of both drugs.

Do the treatment selection factors emphasized in clinical guidelines—Chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and heart failure—contribute to the risk of urinary tract infections during the administration of sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors?

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims/Introduction Sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2Is) are recommended in Japan for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), heart failure (HF), or chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to their organ‐protective effects, leading to increased use in high‐risk populations.

Guideline for Medication Management of Distressing Symptoms in Older Patients Receiving End‐of‐Life Palliative Care

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Older patients receiving end‐of‐life palliative care often present with multiple geriatric syndromes, frailty, and comorbid symptom burden, resulting in a high risk of medication‐related harm. This guideline focuses on pharmacological management of distressing symptoms in older patients receiving end‐of‐life or hospice‐oriented palliative care,

Early Onset Bacteremia in Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Current Era

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bloodstream infection (BSI) after kidney transplantation increases the risk of graft loss and mortality. We aimed to identify contemporary risk factors and outcomes of early BSI (eBSI) at our transplant center. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of adult kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) from 2019 to 2023.

Retrospective Analysis of Survival and Adverse Effects Associated With Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in 12 Dogs With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This retrospective analysis evaluated 12 dogs with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). Dogs received between 6 and 25 Grey (Gy) per fraction for 1–5 fractions for a total dose of 13–30 Gy. Eleven patients (92%) experienced acute adverse effects (AE), with the majority being VRTOG grade 2–3 ...

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 ...
