Lower Plasma Antioxidant Defense and Heat Shock Proteins Mark Intra‐Amniotic Sludge Ultrasound Finding

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives Intra‐amniotic sludge is an independent risk factor for preterm birth. It consists of a biophysical sonographic finding in the amniotic fluid, formed by dense echogenic particles near the cervical internal orifice, due to sterile or infectious inflammatory processes.

GERD and Upper Aerodigestive Tract Cancer Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is highly prevalent, yet its association with upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancers beyond esophageal adenocarcinoma remains incompletely defined. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to quantify the risk of specific UADT cancers in individuals with GERD.

Considerations for Initiation and Maintenance of Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, motor fluctuations become increasingly difficult to manage with oral medications. Foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp), delivered as a continuous 24‐h/day subcutaneous infusion, offers continuous levodopa delivery and stable plasma levodopa levels that reduce motor fluctuations. LDp/CDp has been

Omics Insights Into the Effects of Highbush Blueberry and Cranberry Crop Agroecosystems on Honey Bee Health and Physiology

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are vital pollinators in fruit‐producing agroecosystems like highbush blueberry (HBB) and cranberry (CRA). However, their health is threatened by multiple interacting stressors, including pesticides, pathogens, and nutritional changes.

Multifrequency Multiparameter Magnetic Resonance Elastography Applied to an In Vivo Porcine Model for Assessing Portal Hypertension

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Portal hypertension, a critical complication in chronic liver disease, has long relied on invasive hepatic venous pressure gradient measurement for definitive diagnosis. This study establishes that multifrequency three‐dimensional magnetic resonance elastography (3D‐MRE) can noninvasively quantify portal pressure, with splenic stiffness and loss ...
