Fractal Anatomy of Human Organs: A Narrative Review of Structure, Function, and Clinical Perspectives

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fractal geometry describes complex, self‐similar patterns that repeat across spatial scales and is increasingly recognized as relevant in anatomical research. Indeed, the fractal organization is consistently observed in respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, nervous, renal, hepatic, and dermatological systems.

Endovascular Stenting for Pulmonary Vein Stenosis Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: From Diagnosis to Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is an uncommon but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, often misinterpreted as primary pulmonary disease. Timely identification is essential to prevent irreversible injury and to guide appropriate referral for interventional management. Case Presentations Through the discussion of

Straight to Phase III: Model‐Informed Approach Speeds Depemokimab Clinical Development in Interleukin‐5‐Driven Diseases

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Straight to Phase III: Model‐informed approach speeds depemokimab clinical development in interleukin‐5‐driven diseases. IL‐5, a key mediator of type 2 inflammation, underlies various diseases, including severe asthma, CRSwNP, EGPA, and HES. Reduction in blood eosinophil count (BEC), a biomarker of IL‐5 activity, is commonly used to evaluate the ...
