Our study demonstrates that total BCAA levels increase following liver transplantation. In patients with cirrhosis, higher total BCAA levels are associated with a reduced risk of all‐cause mortality. However, while this association is not observed in liver transplant recipients, elevated total BCAA levels are strongly linked to an increased risk of new‐

Next-generation sequencing of prostate cancer: genomic and pathway alterations, potential actionability patterns, and relative rate of use of clinical-grade testing. [PDF]
Despite being one of the most common cancers, treatment options for prostate cancer are limited. Novel approaches for advanced disease are needed. We evaluated the relative rate of use of clinical-grade next generation sequencing (NGS) in prostate cancer,

Effect of Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) in a murine model of graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD). Following an allogeneic transplant from C57BL/6J donors to BALB/c recipients, PEA treatment improved survival, alleviated clinical symptoms, and protected target organs in GVHD‐affected mice.

Long-term efficacy and safety of sirolimus therapy in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis
Background Sirolimus has been confirmed to be effective for lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a rare multisystem neoplastic disease in women. The long-term effects of sirolimus treatment for LAM, however, are largely unknown.

Adding to Your Tool Box: Laser Therapy for Vascular Anomalies
ABSTRACT Adjuvant laser therapy of vascular anomalies is based on the principle of selective photo‐thermolysis, through targeted destruction of selected chromophores with minimal injury to surrounding tissue. Choice of laser wavelength, treatment parameters, and predicted response to therapy are dependent on the dominant chromophore within the vascular

The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases
Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.

Out of 274 lung transplant (LTx) patients, 89 (32%) developed invasive aspergillosis IA. Factors associated with IA were mycophenolate mofetil use, airway stenosis, Aspergillus cultured pre‐LTx, chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), and acute rejection. The role of nebulized amphotericin B and statins for prevention of IA remains unclear. ABSTRACT
