Impact of chronic fetal hypoxia and inflammation on cardiac pacemaker cell development [PDF]
Chronic fetal hypoxia and infection are examples of adverse conditions during complicated pregnancy, which impact cardiac myogenesis and increase the lifetime risk of heart disease. However, the effects that chronic hypoxic or inflammatory environments exert on cardiac pacemaker cells are poorly understood.

Classically described in the group of non‐cirrhotic portal hypertension, obliterative portal venopathy (OPV) causes are still unknown. Our aim is to describe the characteristics of 43 OPV patients and potential risk factors. Clinically significant portal hypertension was found in 28% of cases. The most frequent indication for liver biopsy was elevation

Shared features of endothelial dysfunction between sepsis and its preceding risk factors (aging and chronic disease) [PDF]
Acute vascular endothelial dysfunction is a central event in the pathogenesis of sepsis,increasing vascular permeability, promoting activation of the coagulation cascade, tissue edema and compromising perfusion of vital organs. Aging and chronic diseases(hypertension,dyslipidaemia,diabetes mellitus,chronic kidney disease,cardiovascular disease ...

Atypical Presentation of Chronic Granulomatous Disease in a Child
Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare, inherited immunodeficiency caused by deletions or mutations in genes that encode subunits of the NADPH oxidase complex. The pattern of chronic granulomatous disease inheritance can be X-linked (about 70% of cases)

68Ga‐nitroimidazole PET/CT imaging of hypoxia in tuberculosis: A case series
There is increasing application of PET/CT imaging in infectious diseases such as tuberculosis. Imaging potential stressors such as hypoxia, using a novel Ga‐68 labelled hypoxia seeking agent, has the potential to identify patients who may benefit from individualised treatment strategies.

Subtyping patients with chronic disease using longitudinal BMI patterns [PDF]
Obesity is a major health problem, increasing the risk of various major chronic diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, and stroke. While the role of obesity identified by cross-sectional BMI recordings has been heavily studied, the role of BMI trajectories is much less explored.

A Review of Chronic Granulomatous Disease [PDF]
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by defects in any of the five subunits of the NADPH oxidase complex responsible for the respiratory burst in phagocytic leukocytes. Patients with CGD are at increased risk of life-threatening infections with catalase-positive bacteria and fungi and inflammatory complications such ...
