Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Obesity: Pathogenesis, Diagnostics, Risk Stratification, and Therapeutic Approach

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, closely linked to the global rising incidence of obesity and metabolic syndrome. This review synthesizes current evidence on the pathogenesis, gut–liver axis, and multidisciplinary management of MASLD within the ...

A Phase 1 Study of Convection‐Enhanced Delivery of Intraputaminal AAV2‐GDNF in Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Neurotrophic therapeutic approaches have been limited in part by incomplete delivery to the putamen. We developed image‐guided convection‐enhanced delivery with real‐time monitoring to improve intraputaminal distribution of neurotrophic gene therapy. Objectives To

Does bigger mean sicker? A systematic review and meta‐analysis of the intraspecific relationship between host body size and parasite infection across vertebrate taxa

Oikos, EarlyView.
Elucidating the determinants of parasite infection levels of individuals within a population is a basic but important step for understanding the roles of parasites in natural systems. Among intraspecific studies on vertebrate hosts and metazoan parasites, host body size (length/mass) is probably the most frequently reported factor determining parasite ...

Long‐term outcomes of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with antithymocyte globulin–based myeloablative conditioning in pediatric refractory or relapsed non‐Hodgkin lymphoma

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Single‐center retrospective data showed that ATG‐based myeloablative haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation provides durable remission and favorable long‐term survival in children with refractory/relapsed non‐Hodgkin lymphoma, achieving high engraftment rates, low relapse incidence, and acceptable toxicity.

Respiratory profile of pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation studied by oscillometry – A TRANSPIRE cohort

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
These are results from a multi‐center collaboration between four large pediatric institutions, investigating baseline respiratory system function in a cohort of children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This manuscript proposes respiratory oscillometry as a novel way to prospectively follow lung function in these children.

Development of infectious recombinant BK virus

Virus Research, 2011
The polyomavirus, BK virus (BKV) infects the majority of humans early in life, establishing persistent asymptomatic infections in immunocompetent individuals. The small size and non-redundant nature of the viral genome presents a challenge in developing recombinant BKV (rBKV).

Photogenerated fluphenazine radical cations for antiviral functionalization of polypropylene masks

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Fluphenazine impregnated into nonwoven polypropylene masks is photoexcited to a radical cation, which inactivates viruses on the polymer surface without causing damage to the masks. Abstract The incorporation of photoactive molecules into polymeric substrates offers a compelling route to introduce advanced functionality while preserving the host ...
