MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...

The decreasing predictive power of MELD in an era of changing etiology of liver disease
The field of liver transplantation has shifted considerably in the MELD era, including changing allocation, immunosuppression, and liver failure etiologies, as well as better supportive therapies.

The burden of cirrhosis hospitalizations is increasing. The admission Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease–lactate (MELD‐lactate) was recently demonstrated to be a superior predictor of in‐hospital mortality compared with MELD in limited cohorts.

Chelation‐Assisted Metal‐Catalyzed Ligation and Cleavage Reactions for Chemical Biology
Chelation‐assisted transition metal catalysis has emerged as a promising complement to bioorthogonal click chemistry for studying biological processes. By pre‐organizing catalytic metal centers, designed coordinating substrates enhance reactivity and biocompatibility, enabling site‐selective ligation and decaging reactions in complex biological media ...

Abstract Objective Detection of epilepsy‐causing structural brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is critical for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning in people with epilepsy. We aimed to establish an epilepsy‐directed multisite harmonized 3‐T MRI acquisition protocol for the Australian Epilepsy Project (AEP) and describe the ...

Background. Liver allocation in the United States was updated on February 4, 2020, by introducing the acuity circle (AC)–based model. This study evaluated the early effects of the AC-based allocation on waitlist outcomes. Methods. Adult liver transplant (

Introduction Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a serious complication of liver cirrhosis which presents with hepatic and/or extrahepatic organ failure and often needs admission to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Abstract Objective Quantitative assessment of extent of tissue resection following epilepsy surgery requires accurate delineation of the resection cavity on postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Current methods for resection cavity masking are time‐consuming and labor‐intensive, and existing automated approaches exhibit variable segmentation ...

Quantifying extra‐lesional interhemispheric cortical asymmetry in focal cortical dysplasia type II
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia type II (FCDII) is a cortical malformation representing a common cause of surgically treatable drug‐resistant epilepsy. We studied whether FCDII disrupts normal structural interhemispheric asymmetry beyond the lesion location and quantified these asymmetries derived from structural magnetic resonance imaging (
