Value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein assays in predicting atrial fibrillation recurrence: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Objectives: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) assays to see whether these tests are predictive of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after cardioversion.

Inflammation, Immunity, and Cardiovascular Diseases
Cardiovascular stress signals (e.g., hemodynamic shear, oxidized lipids, and ischemia) act on endothelial and immune cells to activate and amplify inflammation through NF‐κB, the NLRP3 inflammasome, and JAK/STAT signaling, inducing proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, and CCL2) and self‐amplifying circuits; clinically, inflammatory

Prognostic Role of High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein/Albumin Ratio in Heart Failure Patients
The ratio of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) to Serum albumin (SA) (hs-CRP/SA) is emerging as a new potential biomarker capable of stratifying cardiovascular risk in patients with chronic HF (CHF), particularly the risk of major adverse ...

Shape‐Memory Collagen/Silk‐Fibroin Scaffold for Dura Sealing and Skull Base Regeneration
ABSTRACT When a skull base defect occurs, reconstruction is typically performed using a variety of autologous grafts, flaps, or synthetic materials. Failure to achieve appropriate management and closure can lead to serious consequences, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage and subsequent meningitis.
