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

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
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.

Carotid Plaque Stresses.

open access: yes, 2008
1.1 Current Carotid Risk Assessment In current clinical practice, selection for surgical removal of the carotid plaque (carotid endarterectomy) is determined by the degree of luminal narrowing known as the degree of stenosis (Rothwell et al., 2003a). The operation has been determined beneficial in patients with symptomatic, severe stenosis in two large,

Associations Between Imaging‐Detected Pulp Calcification and Systemic Diseases: A Systematic Review, Thematic Analysis, and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulp calcification (PC) is a common imaging finding traditionally attributed to local factors or ageing. However, increasing evidence suggests that it may be associated with broader systemic biological disturbances. Clarifying this association may help determine whether dental pulp findings contribute to the interpretation of ...

Recent advances in polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome, formerly polycystic ovary syndrome, with emphasis on endocrine and metabolic dysfunction and cardiovascular risk

open access: yesJournal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome (PMOS), previously known as polycystic ovary syndrome, affects 10%–13% of women of reproductive age and remains underdiagnosed despite its substantial health burden. The introduction of the new PMOS nomenclature in 2026 reflects a fundamental shift in understanding the condition as a lifelong endocrine ...
