Kaempferol Attenuates Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury by Suppressing Ferroptosis via the KEAP1–Nrf2–GPX4 Axis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is characterized by cardiomyocyte death, excessive oxidative stress, inflammation, and ferroptosis, which collectively limit the efficacy of reperfusion therapy. In this study, we investigated whether kaempferol (KAE), a natural flavonol with antioxidative and antiinflammatory properties, could ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The Unfinished Journey After Major Surgery: Interhospital Transfer and Care Fragmentation

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Interhospital transfer (IHTR) is commonly used to access specialized surgical care, yet post‐discharge readmission destination among transferred surgical patients remains poorly characterized. Therefore, the association of IHTR and hospital transfer burden with care fragmentation after major surgery was evaluated. IHTR was strongly associated with care

Pulmonary artery catheters or central venous catheters for cardiac surgery: the PUMA Pilot randomised clinical trial

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Pulmonary artery catheters are used widely in cardiac surgery despite observed associations with worse outcomes and guidelines that recommend against their routine use. No adequately powered randomised trials are available. Methods The PUMA Pilot was a multicentre, randomised, parallel assignment, open‐label, pilot and feasibility ...
