Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

Postprandial Changes in Thoracic Aortic Flow Detected by 4D Flow MRI May Influence Study Results

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background While there is a growing body of data using 4D flow MRI to distinguish between normal and abnormal blood flow values in the thoracic aorta, the extent of physiological variation or lack thereof is potentially undervalued. Physiological processes such as postprandial changes to hemodynamics might influence data, normal values, follow‐

Standardized MRI‐Based Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume: Reproducibility and Agreement With Cardiac Computed Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is increasingly recognized as a cardiometabolic risk marker associated with adverse outcomes. The most established approach for EATV quantification is cardiac computed tomography (CT). MRI offers a radiation‐free alternative allowing simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and tissue ...

Institutional Learning Curve in Esophagectomy: Technical Standardization of Gastric Conduit Formation and Conduit‐Related Outcomes in 187 Consecutive Patients

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Learning curves in esophagectomy are often described in terms of procedural volume, but institutional maturation also reflects progressive standardization of reconstruction, operative choreography, and team‐based decision‐making.

Segmental Sudomotor Innervation in Harlequin Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harlequin syndrome (HS) is a rare neurological disorder characterised by segmental anhidrosis and contralateral compensatory flushing, typically involving the face and extending to the neck. A 44‐year‐old man developed flushing of the right hemiface accompanied by left‐sided anhidrosis affecting the face, neck, upper chest and upper extremity ...

METTL14 Regulates Myocardial Infarction Progression via m6A‐Dependent Modulation of OTUD1‐Mediated Deubiquitination of DUSP6

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myocardial infarction (MI) is the most severe clinical manifestation of coronary artery diseases (CVD) and serves as a critical driver of sudden cardiac death and heart failure (HF). Its pathophysiology begins with the abrupt cessation of coronary blood flow, leading to severe ischemia and subsequent cardiomyocyte necrosis. This study aimed to

Hemodynamic Significance of APEXCT Coronary Angiography Combined With Dynamic CT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Assessing Restenosis After Coronary Stenting

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic significance of in‐stent restenosis (ISR) by using a combined anatomical‐functional approach with photon‐counting CT coronary angiography (APEX‐CT CTA) and dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT‐MPI). We prospectively enrolled 239 symptomatic patients at least 9 months after PCI.
