Correlation between the accuracy of the emergency response centre’s urgency assessment and emergency medical services non-conveyance: a retrospective register-based study in Finland

BMC Emergency Medicine
Background In modern emergency medical services (EMS), ambulances increasingly focus on examining and treating the patient at the scene. This has led to increased levels of non-conveyance. In Finland, for instance, approximately 40% of EMS dispatches end

Uncovering Inequities: The Role of Social Determinants of Health in Hospitalized Adolescents and Young Adults With Heavy Menstrual Bleeding

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common condition among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in this population. Growing evidence suggests that social determinants of health (SDOH) influence menstrual bleeding patterns, access to care, and treatment. However, no studies have

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
