Trametinib in Adults with Neurofibromatosis Type 1‐Related Symptomatic Plexiform Neurofibromas

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors have shown promising results in treatment of plexiform neurofibromas in neurofibromatosis type 1 patients, but data in adults are limited. The aim of this phase 2 study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of trametinib in adults with neurofibromatosis type 1.

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune

Long‐Term Outcomes of Reduced Intensity Conditioning Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Systemic Sclerosis Patients with Impaired Cardiac Function

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective High intensity conditioning autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is standard of care for patients with advanced SSc. The role of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) prior to AHSCT in this population remains unclear. We conducted this study to determine the long‐term outcomes of RIC AHSCT in SSc patients with cardiac ...

Levels of NT‑proBNP in patients with cancer

open access: yesOncology Letters, 2023
At present, it is well known that natriuretic peptides may be produced by cancer cells. Stimulation of N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) synthesis may be a reaction to activity of several proinflammatory cytokines. NT-proBNP is also a marker of myocardial damage during cardiotoxic chemotherapy by anthracyclines.

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Association of Estimated Insulin Resistance with N-Terminal B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Concentration in Men with Metabolic Syndrome

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2019
Background. The diagnostic and prognostic role of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in heart failure is well established. However, additional factors may influence its concentration.

Cardiac Biomarker Release After Exercise in Healthy Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
PURPOSE: The authors evaluated the impact of acute exercise and 24-hour recovery on serum concentration of cardiac troponins T and I (cTnT and cTnI) and N-terminal fragment of the prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in healthy children and ...

Incidence and Predictors of Hypoattenuated Thickening and Device‐Related Thrombus at Three Months Postprocedural CT Assessment Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With Amplatzer Devices—A Single‐Center Cohort

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...
