The Effects of Biologic Agents on Carotid Intima‐Media Thickness and Hepatic Steatosis in Patients With Moderate‐To‐Severe Psoriasis: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
In this prospective observational cohort study, 34 patients with moderate‐to‐severe psoriasis received biologic therapy (anti‐TNF‐α, anti‐IL‐12/23, or anti‐IL‐17) for 6 months. Carotid intima–media thickness decreased significantly in the overall cohort (p < 0.01), with the greatest reductions in the anti‐IL‐17 and anti‐IL‐12/23 groups.

Point-of-care ultrasonography of carotid arteries in primary care: sensitivity and specificity of identification of carotid atherosclerosis and prevalence of carotid atherosclerosis in apparently healthy subjects with high and very high cardiovascular disease risk

BMC Primary Care
Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a major global health concern, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality. The use of point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) in primary care has grown in popularity, offering a promising approach

FOXC1: A Key Transcription Factor of VSMC‐Derived Foam Cell Formation in Atherosclerotic Plaque Instability

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The instability of atherosclerotic plaques, particularly intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH), drives life‐threatening cardiovascular events, a process in which vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC)‐derived foam cells play a significant role. We aim to identify key biomarkers associated with VSMC‐derived foam cells and IPH by analyzing data from human ...

Mass Spectrometry‐Based Extracellular Vesicle Proteomics for Biomarker Discovery

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicle (EV) proteomics has emerged as a powerful platform for decoding intercellular communication and advancing biomarker discovery across human diseases. EVs carry proteins that reflect their cells of origin, offering a minimally invasive window into physiological and pathological processes.

Respiratory‐Resolved Isotropic 3D T1 Mapping of the Carotid Vessel Wall With B1+ Correction (CARISMAT1C)

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop, optimize, and characterize a respiratory motion‐resolved free‐running isotropic 3D carotid vessel wall T1 mapping technique named CARISMAT1C. Methods An inversion‐recovery gradient‐echo free‐running pulse sequence with interleaved double flip‐angle (2FA) was implemented, and an extended‐phase‐graph dictionary was used to ...

An Inline‐Integrable Image Restoration Model With ROI Fine‐Tuning and Slice‐to‐Volume Reconstruction for Accelerated Whole‐Brain Vessel Wall Imaging

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop a vessel wall imaging (VWI)‐dedicated image restoration model enabling high‐resolution whole‐brain VWI in under 6 min. Methods A transformer‐based 2.5D model was trained in a supervised manner to enhance the image quality of CAIPIRINHA 2 × 2‐accelerated VWI acquisitions to a level comparable to that of GRAPPA twofold ...
