Acute Effects of Smoking and Vaping on Markers of Vascular Function via Quantitative MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background E‐cigarettes contribute to endothelial dysfunction, a known cause of systemic atherosclerotic disease that cannot be adequately characterized by a single physiological parameter measured at a single vascular bed. Purpose/Hypothesis Quantify and compare acute effects of smoking or vaping with tobacco cigarettes (t‐cigs), nicotinized ...

NETosis in the Kidney, Liver, and Lung of Mice With Cecal Ligation and Puncture‐Induced Sepsis and the Ameliorating Effects of Adipose‐Derived Stem Cell Exosomes

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sepsis‐induced organ failure involves dysregulated neutrophil responses, including neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation, via NETosis. Exosomes generated from adipose‐derived stem cells (ADSCs) have shown potential in sepsis treatment. This study characterized organ‐specific NETosis in the kidney, liver, and lungs using a murine cecal ...

Correlating Pulmonary Hemodynamics With HP 129Xe Dissolved‐Phase MRSI in a Controlled Porcine Intervention Study

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pulmonary hypertension is related to a 1‐year mortality ranging from < 5% to > 20% in low‐ and high‐risk groups. Right heart catheterization is the diagnostic gold standard, associated with a 1.1% rate of severe adverse events, posing the need for a non‐invasive diagnostic tool.

Sickle Cell Disease: Historical Overview and Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide, yet the limited treatment options currently available do not always adequately control the disease and carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, a procedure that carries considerable challenges and numerous ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT Perfusion Versus SPECT/CT V/Q Scintigraphy for Preoperative Lung Function Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate preoperative physiological assessment is critical for high‐risk patients undergoing lung resection to predict postoperative lung function. This study compared quantitative dual‐energy CT (DECT) perfusion with SPECT/CT for lobar perfusion mapping in an at‐risk oncological cohort.

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of
