Comparison of the SMI Technique and CEUS for the Assessment of Microvasculature in Leiomyosarcoma and Its Clinical Value for Application

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
SMI and CEUS can clearly reflect the microvascular situation in fibroids and effectively guide the clinical treatment of patients with uterine fibroids, but the effect of SMI is better than that of CEUS in guiding the treatment of patients, which can provide a reference for the selection of clinical treatment programs.

Value of 2‐Dimensional Shear‐Wave Elastography in Assessing Tibial Nerve Stiffness in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The morphological alterations of the tibial nerve in patients with diabetes mellitus, both with and without diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), are challenging to differentiate using B‐mode ultrasound. In this study, we assessed the stiffness changes of the tibial nerve by 2‐dimensional shear‐wave elastography (2D‐SWE). Methods We gathered

The Physiological Consequences of Bed Rest

open access: yes, 2007
Bed rest often is used to treat a wide variety of medical conditions. However, bed rest results in profound deconditioning of the body. Bed rest reduces the hydrostatic pressure gradient within the cardiovascular system, reduces muscle force production,

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Molecular Staging, Risk Factors, Therapeutics, and Emerging Trends

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
The heterogeneous landscape of DPN can be unified through a tripartite pathogenic model encompassing progressive stages of metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and overt neuronal damage. Within this framework, six clinical subtypes were identified, namely, hyperglycemia‐driven, dyslipidemia‐driven, inflammation‐driven, dysvascularity‐driven ...

An Open‐Label Phase 1b Study of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Clinical Activity of ANX005 in Patients with Huntington's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Complement activation is implicated in Huntington's disease; ANX005 is a potent inhibitor of component C1q. ANX005 exhibited a generally manageable safety profile with rapid reduction in C1q in the cerebrospinal fluid. Functional ability on composite Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale and total functional capacity was maintained, with potential ...
