Fibrosis-4 index can predict improved renal function in acute heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]
Background Improved renal function (IRF) observed in acute heart failure (AHF) is associated with poor prognosis. Since IRF is linked to renal congestion resulting from inadequate decongestion, predicting IRF could enhance management strategies.

Hydrogel Microtube Drug Carrier for Catheter‐Based Intravascular Therapy
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This paper proposes hydrogel microtube carriers composed of barium alginate gel, enabling long‐term vascular retention without interrupting blood flow. Intravascular treatments have long been attracting attention for therapeutic efficacy, yet practical delivery methods remained unestablished.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Impact of Ventricular Dyssynchrony on Postexercise Accommodation of Systolic Myocardial Motion in Hypertensive Patients With Heart Failure and a Normal Ejection Fraction: A Tissue-Doppler Echocardiography Study [PDF]
, 2014 Background: We hypothesized left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony would affect postexercise accommodation of regional myocardial motion in patients with heart failure and a normal ejection fraction (HFNEF).
