DNase1 RS1053874 Polymorphism is Associated with Early Neurological Recovery through NET Modulation and with Long‐Term Survival in Ischemic Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Immunothrombosis contributes to ischemic stroke pathophysiology through neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, which promotes thrombus stabilization and microvascular dysfunction. DNase1 is the principal endonuclease responsible for NET degradation.

Suggestive evidence of a multi-cytokine resistin pathway in humans and its role on cardiovascular events in high-risk individuals [PDF]

, 2017
In cells and tissues resistin affects IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12 and TNF-α expression, thus suggesting the existence of a multi-cytokine "resistin pathway".

Cytokine Pathways Driving Diverse Tissue Pathologies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex systemic disorder characterized primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease, such as that of the lung, with potentially devastating clinical consequences. The critical importance of comorbidities,

A Metabolomic Signature Predicts Gout Flare Clinical Outcome Associated With Colchicine Prophylaxis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated that serum metabolomics, before urate‐lowering therapy (ULT) initiation, could serve as a biomarker for responsiveness to colchicine prophylaxis in patients with gout commencing treat‐to‐target ULT. Methods We studied a multicenter prospective cohort (n = 409) initiating treat‐to‐target ULT plus colchicine prophylaxis.

Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Geometry as a Predictor of Permanent Pacemaker Implantation After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Using the Evolut Series

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Predicting the need for permanent pacemaker implantation (PPM) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is crucial for procedural planning and patient counseling. Aims To evaluate whether left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) morphology, specifically a tapered configuration, predicts conduction disturbances requiring PPM
