Jervell and Lange‐Nielsen Syndrome Related Clinical Genetics and Experimental Models
ABSTRACT Jervell and Lange‐Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is defined by electrocardiographic QT prolongation and sensorineural hearing loss, caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in KCNQ1 and/or KCNE1. KCNQ1 encodes the alpha subunit Kv7.1 of the ion channels accountable for slow delayed rectifier potassium currents (IKs), whereas KCNE1 ...

An Age‐Friendly Approach to Caring for Chronic Lung Disease in the Ambulatory Setting
ABSTRACT Many common chronic lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD), have much greater prevalence among older adults and as a result, pose a substantial burden of morbidity, disability, and mortality. The care of older adults with chronic lung disease necessitates an age‐friendly approach

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Active Emergency Management of Adult Acute Epiglottitis: An Analysis of 570 Cases
ABSTRACT Objective Acute epiglottitis, which is primarily caused by bacterial infection, can quickly progress to life‐threatening airway obstruction. The first 24 h after symptom onset is a critical window for management. However, few studies have evaluated the effect of emergency management during this period or have identified the factors that ...

Occupational mortality in older workers: A forensic autopsy‐based evaluation
Abstract The aging of the global workforce has led to an increasing number of individuals remaining occupationally active at older ages. However, forensic autopsy‐based data on workplace deaths in this population remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the causes and manners of workplace‐related deaths among individuals aged 65 years and older ...
