Statins prevent pulsatile stretch-induced proliferation of human saphenous vein smooth muscle cells via inhibition of Rho/Rho-kinase pathway [PDF]
Objective: Pulsatile forces regulate vascular remodeling and trigger vascular diseases such as saphenous vein graft disease. The saphenous vein is exposed to high pressure and pulsatility only after implantation.

The Mirage of Factor Equivalence: Examining the Complexities of Non‐Factor Therapies in Haemophilia
ABSTRACT Background This article provides a critical analysis of the ‘factor equivalence’ concept as applied to non‐factor therapies (NFTs) for haemophilia, highlighting its limitations and clinical implications. Although factor equivalence estimates serve as a comparative tool for evaluating pro‐coagulant effects across different therapies, they may ...
