Hypertension, renal failure, and edema in a 38-year-old man: light chain deposition disease; a case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Background: Monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) is a rare disease, usually manifesting between the 5th and 6th decades of life but can also occur earlier. Characteristic feature of MIDD is a non-fibrillar, Congo red negative deposition of

Recurrent neck swelling after iodinated contrast media administration
A 74-year-old male with an abdominal aortic aneurism reported 2 episodes of neck swelling 16 hours after an abdominal CT with iodinated contrast media that reappeared in a subsequent CT, although the use of pre-medication.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

The Impact of Radiation Dose on CT‐Based Body Composition Analysis: A Large‐Animal Study
Background CT‐based body composition analysis (BCA) enables the extraction of biomarkers from routine CT data. The influence of body composition on the prognosis of different patient groups has been highlighted in recent years.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Pharmacist-led iodinated contrast media infusion risk assessment service
Background: With the increasing development of medical imaging, the use of iodinated contrast media has become more widespread. Adverse reactions caused by iodinated contrast media have drawn much attention. Despite this, there is still a lack of unified

Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Ionic and non-ionic intravenous X-ray contrast media: antibacterial agents? [PDF]
X-ray contrast media have been reported to have inhibitory effects on bacterial growth. Despite its potentially beneficial effect on patients, these features of contrast media have received relatively little attention in the medical literature in the ...
