ABSTRACT This study tested whether combined dapagliflozin (DAPA) and melatonin (Mel) therapy was superior to merely one for ameliorating the left ventricular (LV) fibrosis/remodeling and improving LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in rats after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In vitro study demonstrated that DAPA treatment significantly suppressed the TGF‐

ABSTRACT This retrospective cohort study evaluated the association between estimated plasma volume status (ePVS) and in‐hospital mortality in adult patients with sepsis from the MIMIC‐IV (v2.2) database. After excluding patients with early death, readmission, red blood cell transfusion, malignancy, or missing ePVS data, 17,403 patients meeting Sepsis‐3

Key Interventions in Friedreich's Ataxia and Their Impact on Patient Outcomes: A Systematic Review
Abstract Friedreich's ataxia (FA) is a rare neurodegenerative disease with multisystemic symptoms that requires multidisciplinary care. This systematic review summarizes available pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions, their outcomes, and alignment with patient‐centered care domains, as well as their impact on these domains.

Towards Faster Fetal 3D CINE Cardiac MRI Reconstruction Using Region‐Optimized Virtual Coils (ROVir)
ABSTRACT Purpose To develop and evaluate, in a feasibility study, a computationally efficient image‐reconstruction pipeline for 3D balanced steady state free precession (bSSFP) CINE fetal cardiac MRI that reduces radial streaking artifacts, increases effective temporal resolution, and improves diagnostic image quality compared with previous work ...

ABSTRACT Purpose Left ventricular (LV) strain is an early indicator of myocardial dysfunction. However, conventional strain metrics do not fully account for the multidirectional nature of myocardial deformation. The strain rate tensor, derived from velocity‐encoded MRI, represents the time‐resolved magnitude and direction of strain rate without the ...

Cytogenetic and Molecular Findings in Hydrops‐Related Mirror Syndrome
ABSTRACT Objective Mirror syndrome is a rare, life‐threatening condition in which maternal fluid overload mirrors fetal hydrops. Data on genetic findings in affected pregnancies are limited. We compared genetic diagnoses in hydrops cases with and without mirror syndrome.
