Multilevel percutaneous vertebroplasty with the Spine Jack® system in a patient with Cushing disease
Background Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) is a minimally invasive procedure that requires the injection of cement into a fractured vertebral body. Spine Jack® is a vertebroplasty system with an intracorporal implant designed to restore the height of ...

Optimization of CEST MRI Reporter Protein Design Using Cation‐Pi Networks
A novel engineering approach can produce reporter proteins for cell and viral therapy tracking with unique magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures, detectable with chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). We discover how cation‐π interactions between amino acid groups can help us fine‐tune magnetic resonance properties for noninvasive ...

Cardiovascular features of possible autonomous cortisol secretion in patients with adrenal incidentalomas [PDF]
Background: Low-grade incomplete post-dexamethasone cortisol suppression in patients with adrenal incidentalomas – recently defined as possible autonomous cortisol secretion (pACS) – has been associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality.

Regional differences in approved drug dosages and administration are shaped by complex factors, including clinical data, prior regulatory decisions, and region‐specific considerations. This study investigated how such factors are associated with variations in approved doses across the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines

Defining the end point of status epilepticus: A scoping review and framework for standardization
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) is a life‐threatening neurological emergency with consensus‐driven definitions for onset but no standardized criteria for its end point. This gap creates uncertainty in research and clinical practice. We conducted a scoping review to evaluate how end points have been defined in SE research and to identify key areas of ...

Cell Cycle Regulators and Lineage-Specific Therapeutic Targets for Cushing Disease
Cell cycle proteins are critical to pituitary development, but their contribution to lineage-specific tumorigenesis has not been well-elucidated. Emerging evidence from in vitro human tumor analysis and transgenic mouse models indicates that G1/S-related
