Diagnostic Accuracy of <sup>1</sup>H-MRS Using PRESS and MEGA-PRESS Techniques in the Preoperative Grading of Patients With Gliomas. [PDF]
Background Edited MRS technique such as MEshcher‐GArwood Point RESolved Spectroscopy (MEGA‐PRESS) can determine isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation (IDH) mutation status in patients with gliomas but its accuracy in assessing glioma grade has not yet been formally evaluated.

Risk Factors and Predictive Models for Sarcopenia in Older Adults
Independent risk factors for sarcopenia identified by Lasso regression and logistic regression in the study were BMI, prealbumin, albumin/globulin ratio (A/G ratio), serum creatinine, and phosphorus. These factors were used to construct a nomogram model and a decision tree model. Both models showed effectiveness in predicting sarcopenia in older adults,

Abstract Aims Myocardial inflammation and impaired mitochondrial oxidative capacity are hallmarks of heart failure (HF) pathophysiology. The extent of myocardial inflammation in patients suffering from ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and its association with mitochondrial energy metabolism are unknown.

Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

Coil Combination Using OpTIMUS Results in Improved Signal-to-Noise Ratios of In Vivo MR Spectra Acquired at 7 T. [PDF]
Coil combination with OpTIMUS increases SNR of MR spectra at 7 T compared to well‐established coil combination algorithms without compromising spectral quantification. By reducing spectral noise and incorporating the metabolic signal from higher order singular vectors, OpTIMUS has the potential to enable shorter acquisition times compared to the ...
