Building a Framework for Sexual and Reproductive Health Care in the Rheumatology Context: Content and Approaches

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
People with systemic autoimmune and rheumatic diseases (SARDs) are at higher risk than the general population of experiencing adverse pregnancy and perinatal outcomes such as preeclampsia, intrauterine growth restriction, and maternal and/or fetal death.

Current perspectives in diastolic dysfunction and diastolic heart failure [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2006
Diastolic heart failure (HF) has emerged over the last two decades as a separate clinical entity. Approximately half of the patients presenting with symptoms of congestive HF exhibit a near normal left ventricular (LV) systolic function at rest, which is thought to be caused by a predominant abnormality in diastolic function. It is generally considered

A modified Holzapfel-Ogden law for a residually stressed finite strain model of the human left ventricle in diastole

open access: yesBiomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2013
In this work, we introduce a modified Holzapfel-Ogden hyperelastic constitutive model for ventricular myocardium that accounts for residual stresses, and we investigate the effects of residual stresses in diastole using a magnetic resonance imaging ...

Characteristics and Outcomes of Male Participants in a Multicenter Longitudinal Australian Study Cohort

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to determine the differences in demographic, serologic, and clinical characteristics between male and female patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) in an Australian cohort. Methods This was a retrospective observational study using data from the Australian Scleroderma Cohort Study.

Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction: Early diastolic relaxation and late diastolic compliance

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1989
The fundamental importance of cardiac filling in regulating performance of the heart was recognized by Starling (I) early in this century. Development of comprehensive ventricular function curves by Sarnoff and others (la,2) beginning in the 1950s focused attention on the role of ventricular compliance in influencing cardiac pump performance by ...

Rheumatoid Arthritis and Coronary Artery Calcium Progression: A Case Cohort Analysis From ELSA‐Brasil

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...

Anomalous Pressure‐Temperature Ultrahigh Sensitivities in Atomically Engineered Carbonitride MXenes for Multifunctional Wearable Human–Machine Interfaces: Joint Computational–Experimental Elucidations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 44, 1 June 2026.
Atomically engineered layered 2D Ti3CNTz carbonitride MXene exhibits ultrahigh heat and pressure sensitivity, enabling dual‐mode sensors with 300%–400% performance enhancement and durability for real‐time health‐monitoring interface devices. Precise nitrogen incorporation (e.g., Ti3C1.8N0.2Tz) boosts conductivity, enhancing temperature response, while ...

Ca2+/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II and protein kinase G independently contribute to acutely enhance myocardial compliance with stretch

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
The heart constantly adapts to acute hemodynamic load by increasing contractility and stretch‐induced compliance (SIC). The latter involves titin phosphorylation, notably by cGMP‐dependent protein kinase (PKG).
