Can Stress Echocardiography Compete with Perfusion Scintigraphy in the Detection of Coronary Artery Disease and Cardiac Risk Assessment? [PDF]
Aims: The aim of this review was to define the place of stress echocardiography in the context of perfusion scintigraphy for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the assessment of cardiac risk.

ABSTRACT Drug–food interactions may compromise therapeutic efficacy, particularly for life‐saving medications such as anticoagulants. Changes in gastric fluid properties, including pH modification and surface film formation, can alter drug dissolution and release. This study evaluated a potential interaction between clopidogrel and spinach and explored

Dual control of vascular tone and remodelling by ATP released from nerves and endothelial cells [PDF]
Purinergic signalling is important both in short-term control of vascular tone and in longer-term control of cell proliferation, migration and death involved in vascular remodelling.

Reprogramming Immunogenicity of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles through Sulfated Glycan Presentation
This study presents a comparative analysis of heparin (HP)‐ and dextran sulfate (DS)‐coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) as a tunable immunomodulatory platform where surface chemistry dictates therapeutic function. DS‐SPIONs are preferentially internalized by myeloid cells, reprogramming them into a pro‐healing M2 phenotype ...

Data science approaches have been increasingly implemented in healthcare big data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of drugs. Association discovery is a data mining approach that finds potentially associated elements in high‐dimensional data. We present a novel implementation of the association discovery approach in longitudinal healthcare data ...

Further Insights Into Anticholinergic Action Informed by Japanese Anticholinergic Risk Scale
ABSTRACT The increased anticholinergic burden caused by medications in older adults is one of the adverse drug reactions of particular concern, as it can exacerbate the onset of geriatric syndromes or induce cognitive dysfunction, and is also related to the issue of polypharmacy.
