Decoding RNA regulation: Challenges and opportunities for RNA‐based therapies in Europe

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract RNA‐based medicinal products represent a promising frontier in personalised medicine, offering sequence‐specific disease targeting at various molecular levels, yet their clinical translation in the European Union (EU) may be hindered by regulatory uncertainty around definitions and evidence requirements; this study therefore aims to identify ...

Clinical relevance of pharmacogenomic information for improving prescribing practices in acutely admitted older medical patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Safe prescribing and effective medication review during acute hospitalization depends on accurate information about liver and kidney function because these organs are responsible for the elimination of most medications. While estimates for kidney function are widely used, comparable markers of hepatic drug‐metabolizing capacity are not routinely ...

SPARCL1 and NT‐proBNP as biomarkers of right ventricular‐to‐pulmonary artery uncoupling in pulmonary hypertension

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1416-1426, April 2025.
Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Cardiovascular toxicity induced by TKIs in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia: Are women and men different?

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1447-1454, April 2025.
This study analyzes 148 patients (66 women and 82 men) with chronic myeloid leukemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, focusing on cardiovascular adverse events. The risk assessment, performed using the HFA/ICOS score, reveals sex‐specific differences: venous thrombosis is more common in women, while arterial thrombosis predominates in men.
