Phenotypic Shifts in Macrophages Within Advanced Atherosclerotic Plaques in Humans
The transition from a non‐atherosclerotic to an atherosclerotic artery is associated with a shift in macrophage phenotypes. In the homeostatic environment of a non‐atherosclerotic artery, macrophages are predominantly anti‐inflammatory, anti‐atherogenic.

Imperative for a health‐centred focus on climate change in radiology
Summary Climate change negatively impacts individual and population‐level health through multiple pathways, including poor air quality, extreme heat and changes in infectious disease. These health effects will lead to higher health system and medical imaging utilisation.

Exercise‐Induced Cardiac Lymphatic Remodeling Mitigates Inflammation in the Aging Heart
Exercise improves cardiac lymphatic architecture and function in the aged mouse. Aged hearts show reduced lymphatic vascular density, more dilated vessels, and increased peri‐lymphatic inflammation and fibrosis. Exercise training of the aged mouse increases lymph vessel density and sprouting, reverses their dilation, reduces inflammation and fibrosis ...

Nicotinamide riboside improved arterial stiffness (cardio–ankle vascular index), reduced skin ulcer area, and showed a trend toward mitigating heel pad thinning in patients with Werner syndrome, with no serious adverse events. Metabolomic analysis revealed a significant decrease in creatinine, suggesting a potential suppression of renal functional ...

Serious outcomes among emergency department patients with presyncope: A systematic review
Abstract Background Syncope is transient loss of consciousness, and in presyncope, patients experience same prodromal symptoms without losing consciousness. While studies have extensively reported the risk of serious outcome among emergency department (ED) syncope, the outcome for patients with presyncope and their management are not well studied.
