LRG1 Drives Pathological Angiogenesis by Disrupting Neutrophil Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Bladder Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 56, 9 October 2026.
In bladder cancer, LRG1 binds to ANXA2 to trigger mitochondrial ROS‐dependent NETosis. This pathogenic cascade actively uncouples endothelial‐mural cell interactions, driving profound vascular destabilization. Consequently, targeting the LRG1‐ANXA2 axis attenuates the neutrophil burden and induces structural vascular normalization, offering a powerful ...

Kidney Structure and Blood Flow Predict Function and Enable Image‐Based eGFR With Non‐Contrast MRI

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 10, October 2026.
Multiparametric renal MRI in healthy adults identified cortical thickness (r² = 0.38) and renal blood flow (r² = 0.29; both p < 0.001) as the strongest predictors of creatinine‐based eGFR. Together, these measures explained 47% of eGFR variability. Prospective validation demonstrated low bias (−4.9 to 3.4 mL/min/1.73 m²) and good accuracy (p30: 87%–92%)

Small Proteoglycans, Big Impact: Decorin, Biglycan, and Asporin in Musculoskeletal Tissue Health and Disease

open access: yesProteoglycan Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic and information‐rich network that integrates structural support with biochemical and mechanical signaling. Among its key regulatory components are the Small Leucine‐Rich Proteoglycans (SLRPs), a family of matrix molecules that coordinate extracellular architecture with cell signaling.

Congenital Lung Malformations in Neonates: A 9‐Year Tunisian Cohort Highlighting Diagnostic Challenges and Outcomes in a Resource‐Limited Setting

open access: yesPediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Congenital lung malformations (CLMs) represent a broad spectrum of developmental anomalies with highly variable prenatal and postnatal presentations and outcomes. Their postnatal management remains non‐standardized. This study aimed to describe the spectrum of bronchopulmonary malformations diagnosed in the neonatal period, assess ...

Mixed reality applications in percutaneous stone surgery: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of stone‐free rate and perioperative complications

open access: yesBJUI Compass, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of mixed reality (MR)‐assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) on stone‐free rate (SFR), perioperative complications and operative efficiency. Methods A search of PubMed, Embase and Web of Science from inception to February 2026 followed PRISMA guidelines.
