Quantitative T2* Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Iron Detection in Soft Tissue of the Fingers
T2* MRI was evaluated for detecting iron in soft tissues of the fingers. After visual inspection of dual‐colored maps, multiple regions of interest were placed in the soft tissues at areas that indicated increased susceptibility. Lower T2* values, indicative of iron deposition, were detected in patients with microvasculopathy (right panel) but not in ...

Harnessing Trace Elements: Novel Radiosensitization Strategies for Enhanced Cancer Radiotherapy
ABSTRACT Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the core methods of comprehensive cancer treatment. Globally, more than 40% of cancer patients rely on radiotherapy to achieve tumor control, cure or palliative relief. However, radiation resistance, immunosuppression and normal tissue injury limit its clinical application.

Rare types of genetic hemochromatosis
Most types of genetic hemochromatosis are due to mutations in the HFE gene, although similar iron overload and organ damage can also result from mutations in genes other than HFE in rare types of hemochromatosis. Non-HFE hemochromatoses have been divided

We conducted a nationwide, multicenter cohort study using a target trial emulation framework to compare baclofen and acamprosate in patients with compensated alcohol‐associated cirrhosis. After matching, baclofen initiation was associated with a higher 1‐year risk of major adverse liver outcomes, driven primarily by hepatic encephalopathy, particularly

Hemochromatosis and blood donation
The voluntary, unpaid, altruistic blood donor is a cornerstone of current transfusion medicine. The complexity of medical and ethical issues related to blood donation and hemochromatosis has led to a large number of studies related to the safety of the ...

Deferoxamine Improves Radiation‐Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
ABSTRACT Radiation‐induced peripheral neuropathy (RIPN) is a devastating sequela of radiation therapy (XRT). Current treatment options are limited. Deferoxamine (DFO) has been useful in treating radiation‐induced dermal fibrosis. This study aimed to evaluate DFO for RIPN. Thus, 18 mice received 30Gy of fractionated XRT.

ABSTRACT Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss is associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection based on studies predominantly in Asian populations. We assessed real‐world associations between HBsAg loss and long‐term clinical outcomes in a diverse US population with chronic HBV infection. This

Non-HFE hemochromatosis: Pathophysiological and diagnostic aspects.
International audienceRare genetic iron overload diseases are an evolving field due to major advances in genetics and molecular biology. Genetic iron overload has long been confined to the classical type 1 hemochromatosis related to the HFE C282Y ...
