Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes of Subtotal Gastrectomy for Remnant Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter study compared subtotal versus completion gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer. Subtotal gastrectomy was associated with shorter operative time and significantly less postoperative weight loss, with no difference in long‐term survival, suggesting it as a feasible surgical option without compromising oncologic outcomes.

Effects on costs of frontline diagnostic evaluation in patients suspected of angina: coronary computed tomography angiography vs. conventional ischaemia testing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate in patients with stable angina the effects on costs of frontline diagnostics by exercise-stress testing (ex-test) vs. coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA).

Differentiating the Clinical and Variant Spectrum of Hardikar Syndrome From Other MED12‐Related Developmental Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Long-term outcomes of fractional flow reserve-guided vs. angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention in contemporary practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aims Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the reference standard for the assessment of the functional significance of coronary artery stenoses, but is underutilized in daily clinical practice.

Heterozygous deletion of the Williams-Beuren syndrome critical interval in mice recapitulates most features of the human disorder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Williams-Beuren syndrome is a developmental multisystemic disorder caused by a recurrent 1.55-1.83 Mb heterozygous deletion on human chromosome band 7q11.23.

Tree shrew model of early diabetic retinopathy reveals microvascular dysfunction and identifies phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 as a novel therapeutic target

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We developed an animal model of early diabetic retinopathy (DR) in the tree shrew by feeding a high‐fat and high‐sugar diet in combination with STZ. Physiological and biochemical index detection, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and transmission electron microscopy were performed to examine DR.

Association of lower fractional flow reserve values with higher risk of adverse cardiac events for lesions deferred revascularization among patients with acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: The safety of deferring revascularization based on fractional flow reserve (FFR) during acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is unclear. We evaluated the association of FFR and adverse cardiac events among patients with coronary lesions deferred ...

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.
