Histological Analysis of Cryopreserved Venous Allografts Used for Liver Transplantation and Hepato‐Biliary‐Pancreatic Surgery

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cryopreserved venous allografts, which we pioneered in 1999 for use in living donor liver transplantation and hepato‐biliary‐pancreatic surgery, are widely used and are believed to preserve vascular architecture with minimal anticoagulation or immunosuppression requirements and patency comparable to autologous grafts.

Impact of Dapagliflozin on MRI‐Derived Epicardial Adipose Tissue: Secondary Imaging Analysis of a Randomized Trial

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a metabolically active fat depot associated with cardiovascular risk and represents a modifiable imaging biomarker. Studies have shown that sodium–glucose cotransporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce EAT thickness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, it is unclear whether this is

LINC01605 Predicts the Poor Prognosis of Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer and Promotes Chemotherapy Resistance by Regulating miR‐7111‐5p/ELK1

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is characterized by high incidence, mortality, and poor patient prognosis, with chemotherapy resistance being a common challenge. This research intends to identify key molecules involved in NSCLC and elucidate the regulatory role of the LINC01605/miR‐7111‐5p/ELK1 axis in chemotherapy resistance. LINC01605 and
