Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

Detection of focal impaired awareness seizures using a biometric shirt
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective In recent years, seizure detection using wearable technology has gained significant attention in research. Most studies, however, have focused on detecting generalized or focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a biometric shirt to detect focal impaired awareness seizures (FIAS) by ...

Fibroscan ® : A noninvasive test of liver fibrosis assessment
The Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology, 2007 Determination of the extent of progress of hepatic fibrosis is important in clinical practice, where it may reflect the severity of liver disease and predict response to treatment. Percutaneous liver biopsy is the gold standard for grading and staging of
