Evidence regarding clinical use of microvolt T-wave alternans [Accuracy of microvolt T-wave alternans testing]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Microvolt T-wave alternans (MTWA) testing in many studies has proven to be a highly accurate predictor of ventricular tachyarrhythmic events (VTEs) in patients with risk factors for sudden cardiac death (SCD) but without a prior history of ...

Identification of heart rate-associated loci and their effects on cardiac conduction and rhythm disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Elevated resting heart rate is associated with greater risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. In a 2-stage meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies in up to 181,171 individuals, we identified 14 new loci associated with heart rate and ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.

Age‐related differences in hydroxychloroquine‐associated adverse events: A pharmacovigilance study based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This real‐world pharmacovigilance study utilizes FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data (2004–2024) to characterize age‐related disparities in hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)‐associated adverse events (AEs), addressing gaps in age‐stratified risk assessment. Methods Disproportionality analysis (reporting odds ratios, RORs) and parametric Weibull

Adverse events in bedaquiline‐ and pretomanid‐based regimens for drug‐resistant tuberculosis from trial, implementation and pharmacovigilance studies

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract The availability of safety data, particularly concerning adverse events (AEs) associated with the new shorter regimen for drug‐resistant tuberculosis (TB) containing a bedaquiline–pretomanid‐based regimen, is still limited. This systematic review aims to provide a comprehensive and updated analysis of AEs related to this new regimen by ...
