Superselective Adrenal Artery Embolization as a Novel Alternative Treatment for Aldosterone‐Producing Adenomas: A Case of Refractory Hypertension With Concomitant Autonomous Cortisol Secretion

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is characterized by an overproduction of aldosterone, leading to hypertension and hypokalemia. Although surgery is an effective treatment for unilateral PA, some patients may be unwilling or unable to undergo this invasive ...

Microvascular Damage Is Associated With Carotid Wall Structural Changes in Systemic Sclerosis: A Capillaroscopy and Ultrasound‐Based Observational Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

Unsupervised Machine Learning Identifies Shared Biomechanical and Clinical Variation in Individuals with Knee Osteoarthritis and High BMI: A Secondary Analysis of the IDEA Trial

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective High body mass index (BMI≥27 kg/m2) and aberrant gait biomechanics are primary risk factors for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), yet the specific loading patterns linked to clinical disease features remain unclear. Unsupervised machine learning (ML) was used to identify vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) waveform modes of variation and ...
