Quantitative Evaluation of Carotid Artery Stenosis by Multi‐VENC 4D Flow MRI: Incorporating Turbulent Kinetic Energy for Clinical Validity

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1168-1177, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Cervical internal carotid artery stenosis (ICS) is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke, yet morphological severity alone may not fully reflect hemodynamic alterations. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), derived from multi‐velocity‐encoding (multi‐VENC) four‐dimensional (4D) flow MRI, may provide a robust marker for ICS ...

Cardioprotective effects of the extracellular chaperone clusterin in acute myocardial infarction

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, Volume 55, Issue 10, October 2025.
In vivo, CLU−/− mice were more susceptible to acute myocardial infarction than CLU+/+ mice. Moreover, inflammation and histone levels were significantly increased in CLU−/− mice compared to CLU+/+ mice following ischemia/reperfusion. In vitro, CLU protects cardiomyocytes from histone‐ and/or hypoxia‐induced cell death.

Closed‐Incision Negative Pressure Therapy: Scoping Review and Multidisciplinary Consensus Recommendations of the Spanish Observatory of Infection in Surgery

International Wound Journal, Volume 22, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Surgical site infections (SSI) and surgical site complications (SSC) significantly impact surgery outcomes, increasing hospital stays and mortality rates, and negatively affecting patients' quality of life. Closed‐incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT) emerged as a prophylactic strategy to reduce these complications.
