Night‐Time Chronotherapy with Methylprednisolone Prevents an Acute Rejection in Pediatric Patients with Liver Transplantation: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Concept of methylprednisolone chronotherapy to prevent acute rejections. While endogenous cortisol secretion rises in the early morning, the number of lymphocytes in the blood is higher at night, thus exhibiting an antiphase pattern to cortisol secretion. Therefore, compared with the daytime, the infiltration of lymphocytes into immune‐reactive tissues

Viability assessment and transplantation of fatty liver grafts using end‐ischemic normothermic machine perfusion

open access: yesLiver Transplantation, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract End‐ischemic viability testing by normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) represents an effective strategy to recover liver grafts having initially been discarded for liver transplantation (LT). However, its results in the setting of significant (≥30%) macrovesicular steatosis (MaS) have not been specifically assessed.

Integrated Reporting, Stakeholders' Perspective and Sustainable Disclosure: Systematic Insights From Empirical Research

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past decade, there has been a surge in academic and professional debates regarding the role of integrated reporting (IR) as a potential instrument for disclosing a set of comprehensive information to the stakeholder, integrating the company's sustainability performance. Although the literature on IR has rapidly progressed, the role of

Liver stiffness measurement for non‐invasive assessment of central venous pressure in patients with heart failure: A multicentre pilot study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Liver stiffness measurement for central venous pressure assessment. AUC, area under the curve; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; CVP, central venous pressure; HF, heart failure; LSM, liver stiffness measurement; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction. Abstract Aims Central venous pressure (CVP) is an important variable in assessing heart

Portal vein thrombosis and hemostatic alterations in patients with advanced liver diseases [PDF]

open access: yes
In patients with liver diseases, the liver has a reduced capacity to produce pro- and antihemostatic proteins. This results in a rebalanced hemostatic system, which remains stable in patients with stable liver diseases but can be fragile in those with ...

Anatomy-constrained modelling of image-derived input functions in dynamic PET using multi-organ segmentation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Accurate kinetic analysis of [$^{18}$F]FDG distribution in dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) requires anatomically constrained modelling of image-derived input functions (IDIFs). Traditionally, IDIFs are obtained from the aorta, neglecting anatomical variations and complex vascular contributions.

Proteome‐Wide Mendelian Randomization Identifies Candidate Causal Proteins for Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Genetics, EarlyView.
Here, causal relations are examined between 2940 plasma proteins and 19 cardiovascular diseases (CVD) using a human genetics‐based method. 218 proteins are found whose blood levels influence CVD risks, with about half being new discoveries and largely confirmed in an independent cohort.
