A geriatrician's approach to managing the complex older adult with obesity

Obesity, EarlyView.
Abstract The prevalence of obesity in older adults is rapidly increasing due to the demographic shift occurring globally. Older adults with obesity face health care challenges due to multimorbidity, functional dependency, and disability. This population often has prior history of struggles through weight‐loss attempts during the middle years of life ...

Real‐Time Monitoring of Atherosclerotic Plaque Using β‐Galactosidase‐Activated Photoacoustic Tomography

Small, EarlyView.
Detecting Vascular Senescence: Novel Enzyme‐Responsive Photoacoustic Nanoprobes for Atherosclerotic Plaque Imaging. A lipid nanoprobe is developed that detects senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase in plaques via enzyme‐triggered spectral shifts. This platform enables dynamic tracking of atherosclerotic progression, 3D visualization on the extent and ...

Neuroprotective effects of remote limb ischemic preconditioning through enhanced cerebral blood flow via activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in ischemic stroke

VIEW, EarlyView.
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, often due the inadequate restoration of cerebral blood flow following vascular recanalization. Our study demonstrates that a simple technique called RLIPC (remote limb ischemic preconditioning), which involves briefly restricting blood flow in a limb, protects the brain during a stroke by ...

Noninvasive cerebral oximetry during carotid endarterectomy: application and results

Acta Medica Lituanica, 2015
Background. Cerebral monitoring during carotid endarterectomy allows to detect brain hypoperfusion following carotid clamping and hyperperfusion after restoring the blood flow. Immediate corrections of these changes have the potential in reducing adverse
