Muscle Ultrasound Echo Intensity Detects Insulin Resistance Before Changes in HbA1c or Fasting Glucose, Independent of BMI

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives To quantify the association between skeletal muscle echo intensity (MEI), measured by ultrasound, and clinical markers of insulin resistance and glycemic control, and evaluate MEI's diagnostic accuracy in identifying insulin resistance. Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 20 adults with obesity (mean body mass index [BMI] 34.4 ± 2.6 kg/m2,

Polydopamine‐Antibiotic Composite Coating for Antibiofilm Applications

open access: yesMacromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Antibiotic‐loaded polydopamine coatings are developed to combat biofilm‐forming bacteria on catheter surfaces. These coatings strongly inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm formation on diverse materials, including during continuous artificial‐urine flow, and can accommodate multiple antibiotics.

Dynamic Contrast Enhanced—Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (DCE‐MRF) Improves Detection of Induced Vascular Perfusion Reduction in a Mouse Breast Cancer Model

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Dynamic contrast‐enhanced MRI (DCE‐MRI) can assess tumor perfusion using pharmacokinetic models. However, poor DCE‐MRI reproducibility from reliance on conventional T1‐weighted MRI has limited clinical translation. We evaluated whether Dynamic Contrast Enhanced‐Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (DCE‐MRF), which directly generates ...

A case of yogurt central line‐associated bloodstream infection in a child with intestinal failure

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Central line‐associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) are a significant cause of morbidity in children with intestinal failure (IF). Probiotic therapy is discouraged in patients with IF because of the increased risk of bacteremia with the probiotic organism.
