The Regulatory Role and Mechanism of Myoferlin in Mitophagy During Papillary Thyroid Carcinogenesis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent subtype of thyroid cancer; however, the regulatory mechanisms by which mitophagy influences its progression remain inadequately elucidated. This study sought to examine the role of myoferlin (MYOF) in mitophagy and its molecular basis during PTC development. Utilizing three paired PTC and

Cardiometabolic Biomarkers for Disease Severity Prediction in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impacts of cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRFs) and the biomarkers on disease severity in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) remain elusive. Accordingly, a multicenter study by recruiting MASLD patients from a nationwide registry database was conducted with a total of 2882 MASLD patients (54.1% males, mean age

Association between walking gait biomechanical changes after anterior cruciate ligament injury or reconstruction and the development of osteoarthritis: A systematic review

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and reconstruction significantly increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Biomechanical alterations during walking are frequently suggested contributors to OA development. This systematic review aims to determine the association between walking gait biomechanical changes following ACL ...

Persistent magnetic resonance imaging‐derived static anterior tibial translation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is associated with elevated cartilage T2 relaxation times but not serum biomarkers

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Persistent, static anterior tibial translation (sATT) alterations following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) may influence cartilage health. T2 relaxation times and serum biomarkers of cartilage degradation/bone resorption provide insight into osteoarthritis development.

Tibia‐first, gap‐balanced patient‐specific alignment in total knee arthroplasty achieves better ligament balance than mechanical, kinematic and functional alignment strategies

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates four different alignment techniques to assess total knee arthroplasty (TKA) balance. Methods A prospective cohort of 400 patients undergoing primary robotic‐assisted cruciate‐retaining TKA was analysed. The Velys TKA robotic system collects a balance curve that enables the surgeon to intraoperatively analyse the ...

Impact of regional inequalities in long-term care on health spending: evidence from dementia patients in France

Aging and Health Research
Background: Unmet need for long-term care (LTC) could be associated with higher health care utilization and medical spending. In France funding of LTC is decentralised and there are significant disparities in accessibility of LTC.
