Shear Stress‐Stimulated Trafficking of Endothelial Piezo1 to Splenic Capsule Boosts Spleen Contraction and Exercise Endurance

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
The vasculo‐splenic axis during exercise: shear stress triggers the release of medium/large extracellular vesicles from vascular endothelial cells via activation of Piezo1, shuttling Piezo1 to the smooth muscle cells in the splenic capsule; the translocated Piezo1 within the splenic capsule acts as a downstream effector of the α1‐adrenergic receptor ...

SIEDY Diagnostic Accuracy in Assessing Erectile Dysfunction in Young Men Living With HIV

open access: yesAndrology, Volume 14, Issue 7, Page 2290-2296, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a multidimensional condition commonly affecting men living with HIV. The structured interview of erectile dysfunction (SIEDY) is the only validated tool assessing organic, relational, and psychological factors contributing to ED, while dynamic penile color Doppler ultrasound (dPCDU) is a reliable method ...

Exercise and Autonomic Cardiovascular Function—Insights From Spinal Cord‐Injured Humans: A Narrative Review

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The cardiovascular response to acute exercise is mediated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS) control mechanisms that modulate vascular resistance to support blood pressure and ensure adequate blood flow to active muscles. These autonomic neurocirculatory control mechanisms include a feedforward mechanism, known as central command, and three

Intima‐Media Thickness Progression Rate and Primary Unassisted Patency Failure in Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesHemodialysis International, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 730-738, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Failure of autogenous arteriovenous fistulas (AV fistulas) due to venous neointimal hyperplasia is a major clinical challenge. Whether the rate of progression in venous intima‐media thickness predicts primary unassisted patency failure remains unknown.
