Culture Positive Brucella Endocarditis in a Case of Baloon Mitral Valvotomy [PDF]

, 2011
Brucella endocarditis is a rare condition which occurs as a focal complication in chronic brucellosis cases. We report a rare brucella endocarditis case in a RVHD patient. A 26 years old male was admitted with fever on off for almost one year.

Inactivation of AXL in Cardiac Fibroblasts Alleviates Right Ventricular Remodeling in Pulmonary Hypertension

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive condition with high morbidity and mortality, largely owing to right ventricular (RV) failure resulting from maladaptive remodeling. Our study provides strong evidence in support of a critical, detrimental role for AXL as a previously unrecognized determinant driving RV fibrotic pathology in PH.

Transcriptomics Guided Engineering of Exosome‐Encapsulated Bifunctional Nanosheets Targeting the Immune‐PI3K/Akt Axis for Osteoporosis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A multifunctional nanosheet–exosome hybrid system incorporating f‐CA(OH) nanosheets enriched with abundant surface vacancies are developed. These nanosheets fuse with natural exosomes, endowing them with nanozyme‐like catalytic capabilities while retaining their inherent biological functions.

Group a streptococcal serotypes isolated from healthy schoolchildren in iran [PDF]

, 2003
Serotypes of group A streptococci are still a major cause of pharyngitis and some post-infectious sequelae such as rheumatic fever. As part of the worldwide effort to clarify the epidemiological pattern of group A streptococci in different countries, the

Enhanced Selenium Supplement Extends Lifespan and Delays Multi‐Organs Aging by Regulating the Sik1 Pathway Through Maintaining Calcium Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aging involves physiological decline and heightened disease susceptibility, necessitating effective interventions. Redox‐responsive selenium‐loaded nanoparticles (SeMSNs) are developed, which delay cellular senescence by reducing oxidative stress and senescence markers (p16/p21). In aged mice, SeMSNs extend lifespan, improve organ function, and restore

Structure‐Tailoring Cerium Nanozymes with Self‐Cascade ROS Scavenging Catalysis Modulate the Microbiota‐Gut‐Joint Axis for Rheumatoid Arthritis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A valence‐engineered CeOX nanozyme, with its Ce3+/Ce4+ ratio precisely controlled within the range of 0.27 to 0.93 through Au deposition, performs a self‐cascade oxidase‐superoxide dismutase‐peroxidase reaction, enabling continuous reactive oxygen species scavenging while minimizing oxygen generation.

Rheumatic Heart Diseases in Pregnancy

Annals of the Academy of Medicine, Singapore, 2002
Acute rheumatic fever and rheumatic valvular disease remain prevalent in many parts of the world, and are probably the most common cause of heart disease in pregnancy. Mitral stenosis is the most frequently encountered rheumatic valvular lesion. A variety of pregnancy-associated cardiovascular changes often exacerbate the signs and symptoms of valvular
