ABSTRACT Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) affects up to one‐third of neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). NICUs are highly data‐rich environments, offering opportunities to develop clinical prediction rules (CPRs) that use clinical and demographic data to estimate AKI risk.

ABSTRACT Sugar crops, including but not limited to sugarcane, sugar beet, sweet sorghum and stevia, are major sources of sugar production in the world. However, conventional breeding approaches, limited by long breeding cycles, low efficiency and restricted capacity to improve complex traits in sugar crops, are increasingly insufficient to address the ...

Cystatins, cysteine peptidase inhibitors, as regulators of immune cell cytotoxicity
Cystatins comprise a superfamily of evolutionarily related proteins, present in all living organisms, from protozoa to mammals. They act as inhibitors of cysteine peptidases although they can also function independently of their inhibitory function ...

BETA2-STRAND OF SALIVARY CYSTATINS: A "CHEMELEON SEQUENCE"
Secondary structure prediction of salivary cystatins S, SA, and SN carried out by several methods label the 39–58 sequence (b2-strand) as predominantly a-helical.

Abstract Left ventricular assist devices have gained traction both as a bridge therapy and as a destination therapy in the management of heart failure. Many of these devices reinstate blood flow in a continuous manner as opposed to the pulsatile flow present in normal physiology.

ABSTRACT Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND), is a fatal neurodegenerative disease primarily affecting motor neurons. Two key protein inclusions found in lower motor neurons serve as neuropathological hallmarks of the disease in human tissue: the TDP43‐positive inclusion and the cystatin C‐positive Bunina body.

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

This systematic review identified 112 population pharmacokinetic models of vancomycin in neonates and children. To support rational model selection for model‐informed precision, we developed and applied expert‐driven, transparent criteria that integrate both methodological rigour and clinical relevance.
