Ischaemic Optic Neuropathy After Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...

Cardiac troponin I but not cardiac troponin T adheres to polysulfone dialyser membranes in an in vitro haemodialysis model: explanation for lower serum cTnI concentrations following dialysis. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Elevated serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and I (cTnI) can occur in patients with chronic kidney disease. Differences in cTn concentrations between cTnT and cTnI have been reported but the mechanism of such discrepancy has not been ...

α‐Synuclein strain homogeneity in multiple system atrophy subtypes

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Two different subtypes of multiple system atrophy are recognized: MSA‐C and MSA‐P. In this manuscript, Lau et al. investigate whether MSA‐C and MSA‐P are caused by different strains of α‐synuclein aggregates. By performing conformational fingerprinting experiments as well as in vitro and in vivo seeding assays, their findings suggest that both MSA‐C ...

Mitochondria‐Directed Redox Phospholipid Polymers for Cancer Therapy

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
A mitochondria‐directed redox polymer containing an antioxidant‐oxidizing ferrocene unit and a triphenylphosphonium unit is prepared by a simple copolymerization strategy for cancer treatment. Incorporation of an appropriate amount of the directed unit enhances anticancer activity, elevates intracellular ROS levels, induces apoptosis, and suppresses in

Thrombotic Microangiopathy‐Like Phenotype in Patients With Infection‐Associated Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Treated With Thrombomodulin Alfa

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) and thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) sharing features of thrombocytopenia, organ dysfunction, and bleeding, the relationship between these two conditions remains unclear. We therefore conducted a post hoc analysis of post‐marketing surveillance data from Japan to evaluate the clinical ...
