We describe a complex case of pulmonary embolism and dilated cardiomyopathy in a person with cystic fibrosis. These late complications occurred following laparoscopic left hemicolectomy for colonic adenocarcinoma. This case highlights the complexities of evaluating breathlessness in severe lung disease, and the management challenges that arise as life ...

Body Composition and Muscle Function in Bronchiectasis: A Comparative Longitudinal Study
We compared body composition and muscle function in adults with bronchiectasis versus controls and assessed if leg strength estimates 1‐year outcomes. Patients with bronchiectasis had lower muscle mass, bone density, and leg strength. Reduced leg strength is associated with worse dyspnoea, quality of life, and functional capacity, highlighting the need

Occlusion of an Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt With an Amplatzer Septal Occluder Device in a Dog
This is the first description, to the authors’ knowledge, of the use of an Amplatzer occluder device for a large intrahepatic shunt. In this case, shunt attenuation was successful with no major complications. Instead of accumulating coils or having to proceed with open laparotomy, the use of such device could be made routine for bigger shunt vessels of

Review Article: Targeting Peroxisome Proliferator‐Activated Receptors in Primary Biliary Cholangitis
Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor (PPAR) agonists have emerged as important second‐line treatments in primary biliary cholangitis, with profiles influenced by different selectivity for α‐, δ‐ and γ‐isoforms. PPAR‐α and PPAR‐δ agonism improve cholestasis, with inflammation reduced via all isoforms. PPAR‐δ agonism also reduces pruritus.

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Recovery From Anorexia Nervosa: A Concept Analysis
ABSTRACT Aim Despite decades of research, we still know surprisingly little about how best to bring about lasting recovery from anorexia nervosa (AN). Furthermore, there is a lack of consensus in the research and treatment communities about what constitutes recovery from AN, or whether “recovery” is even an appropriate term to use in this context.

ABSTRACT Anecdotally, the onset of mineralization of rib cartilage, as visualized by radiographic studies, is assumed to occur at 3 months of age. Determining radiographically the exact day when rib cartilage mineralization begins in juvenile dogs could aid in age estimation of young dogs with unknown histories.
