ABSTRACT How to select the appropriate intensity of chemotherapy in older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains an unanswered question. In a phase II trial of older adults ≥ 60 years with AML (n = 73), we used geriatric assessment (measures of comorbidity burden, physical and cognitive function) to determine fitness for intensive ...

ABSTRACT The interstitial 6p microdeletion syndrome is characterized by dysmorphic facies and structural heart, kidney, brain, and musculoskeletal differences. RREB1 haploinsufficiency and consequent abnormal RAS‐MAPK pathway signaling have been proposed as a driver of the disease phenotype; however, apart from a single case report, the phenotype of ...

Learning rules from multisource data for cardiac monitoring [PDF]
This paper formalises the concept of learning symbolic rules from multisource data in a cardiac monitoring context. Our sources, electrocardiograms and arterial blood pressure measures, describe cardiac behaviours from different viewpoints. To learn interpretable rules, we use an Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) method. We develop an original strategy

Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

The Mathematical Modelling of Inhomogeneities in Ventricular Tissue [PDF]
Cardiac arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) are the leading cause of death in the industrialised world. There is a growing consensus that these arrhythmias arise because of the formation of spiral waves of electrical activation in cardiac tissue; unbroken spiral waves are associated with VT and broken ones ...

Objective To assess the value of serum type I interferon (IFN) score in predicting clinically meaningful progression in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) using a novel composite endpoint adopted from the MINIMISE clinical trial. Methods A retrospective, longitudinal lcSSc cohort was identified within a national, multicenter observational ...

ABSTRACT Ryanodine receptor type 2 (RYR2) is a large calcium channel that has been identified as one of the most frequently mutated genes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Despite its potential significance, the role of RYR2 in LUAD remains poorly understood.

Adherence and persistence with direct oral anticoagulants by dose regimen: A systematic review
Introduction Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are used in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) to prevent complications such as embolic events. Poor adherence to DOACs increases the risk of these complications. This manuscript reviews the impact of once‐daily (OD) vs twice‐daily (BID) dosing regimens on adherence and persistence to ...
