Combination Therapy With Vigabatrin and Prednisolone Versus Vigabatrin Alone for Infantile Spasms

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The study evaluated the effectiveness of combination therapy with vigabatrin and prednisolone versus vigabatrin alone for treating infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). Methods This single‐center, single‐blind, randomized trial enrolled infants aged 2–14 months with new‐onset IESS, randomly assigned them (1:1) to receive either

Poor sleep quality was associated with increased plasma aldosterone concentration in community dwellers, a cross-sectional study

Scientific Reports
Sleep is implicated in circulating aldosterone, whereas effects of overall sleep quality are not characterized. Therefore, we explored relationship of sleep quality with plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) in general population.

Plasma aldosterone concentrations elevation in hypertensive patients: the dual impact on hyperuricemia and gout

Frontiers in Endocrinology
BackgroundPrior research has highlighted the association between uric acid (UA) and the activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). However, the specific relationship between aldosterone, the RAAS’s end product, and UA-related diseases

A Topological Data Analysis Study on Murine Pulmonary Arterial Trees with Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Pulmonary hypertension (PH), defined by a mean pulmonary arterial blood pressure above 20 mmHg, is a cardiovascular disease impacting the pulmonary vasculature. PH is accompanied by vascular remodeling, wherein vessels become stiffer, large vessels dilate, and smaller vessels constrict.

Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Is Associated With Higher R2 Relaxation Rate: An MRI and Pathology Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) involves β‐amyloid deposition in the walls of cortical and leptomeningeal small vessels. Transverse relaxation rate (R2) is a major source of contrast in MRI. This study tested the hypothesis that CAA is associated with R2, extracted the spatial pattern of CAA‐related R2 abnormalities, and evaluated ...
