Walsh & Hoyt: Collateral Circulation to the Brain and the Orbits

, 2005
When an artery becomes occluded, the viability of the tissue normally supplied by that vessel becomes dependent upon collateral circulation. Because the process of the atherosclerotic narrowing is usually gradual rather that abrupt, physiologic ...

1H NMR metabolomics and lipidomics analysis of neutrophils reveals biomarkers of ageing, inflammageing and frailty

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Using 1H NMR metabolomics, we measured polar and lipid metabolites from human blood neutrophils from people with frailty (n = 31, mean age 84Y), people with rheumatoid arthritis (n = 16, mean age 55Y), robust older (n = 24, mean age 66Y) and healthy younger people (n = 21, mean age 22Y).

A Novel Diagnostic Approach for Hepatocellular Carcinoma Using Glycosylated Ferritin

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
The percentage of glycosylated ferritin relative to total ferritin (%GF) is a novel biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), showing diagnostic performance comparable to that of AFP and DCP. We developed the GFAD index by integrating age, sex, %GF, AFP, and DCP, achieving improved diagnostic accuracy with high sensitivity and specificity. ABSTRACT

Flexible Contract, Flexible Morale? Microcredit Design and Repayment Discipline

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flexible repayment benefits borrowers, but practitioners fear increased moral hazard. Investigating their concerns requires disentangling repayment choices from repayment capacity, which is typically infeasible in field studies. We use a lab‐in‐the‐field experiment with 645 microcredit borrowers to cleanly identify the effect of repayment ...

Central Bank Purchases and Corporate Bond Issuance during the Pandemic: The Case of Japan

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In its massive purchases of corporate bonds during the COVID‐19 pandemic, the Bank of Japan set the maximum eligible remaining maturity at 5 years. I document that during the postpandemic period, Japanese firms increased bond issuance, with the increase concentrated in (1) issuance of bonds with eligible maturities (1–5 years) and (2 ...

Banking with Inside Money: An Efficiency Analysis

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We show that banks do not decentralize the first best in a nominal Diamond–Dybvig economy with inside money. Furthermore, state‐contingent deposit contracts do not expand the consumption possibility set to include the first best either. Central banks can improve welfare but only for savers and only with unconventional monetary policy. Finally,

Central Bank Digital Currency with Collateral‐Constrained Banks

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We analyze risks to bank intermediation following the introduction of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) competing with commercial bank deposits as households' source of liquidity. We revisit the equivalence of payment systems result, introducing a collateral constraint on banks' borrowing from the central bank.

Exploring Theory of Mind abilities in patients with probable idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus

Journal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Theory of Mind (ToM) deficits in patients with suspected idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), a condition affecting motor, cognitive and autonomic functions. Given the overlap between ToM‐related neural networks and those affected in iNPH, we examined whether ToM impairments are a feature of the disease ...

Inflammatory and Immunological Basis of Periodontal Diseases

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The periodontal lesion emerges as an evolving immunological battlefield, where host–microbiome interactions, dysregulated immune responses, fragile resolution mechanisms, and inflammophilic dysbiosis converge to shift the balance from homeostasis to unrestrained tissue destruction.
