Paediatric renal transplantation: Paediatric surgeons' perspective

Surgical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment for paediatric end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), offering advantages in survival, growth and neurocognitive development that surpass other renal replacement therapies (RRT). The paediatric setting, however, introduces distinct complexities that distinguish it from adult practice.

Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT Perfusion Versus SPECT/CT V/Q Scintigraphy for Preoperative Lung Function Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate preoperative physiological assessment is critical for high‐risk patients undergoing lung resection to predict postoperative lung function. This study compared quantitative dual‐energy CT (DECT) perfusion with SPECT/CT for lobar perfusion mapping in an at‐risk oncological cohort.

Severe superior vena cava syndrome after transvenous pacemaker implantation.

, 2006
Superior vena cava syndrome is a rare complication after pacemaker implantation. The present report outlines how underestimation of clinically relevant symptoms of superior vena cava syndrome early after pacemaker implantation may result in severe ...

Agonist‐specific conformational dynamics at the β2‐adrenoceptor dictate allosteric modulation of Gαs signalling and bronchodilation

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose β2‐adrenoceptor (β2AR) agonists are the cornerstone of asthma therapy and promote bronchodilation through Gαs signalling in airway smooth muscle (ASM), but their efficacy is limited by β‐arrestin‐mediated β2AR desensitization.

A Programmed Procedure of Prosthetic Reconstruction of the Superior Vena Cava 
for Thoracic Tumors via Median Thoracotomy

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2017
Background and objective The involvement of superior vena cava is a common condition in locally advanced thoracic tumors. Patients may benefit from the high risk operation. This study proposed a programmed procedure to optimize surgical techniques, which

A Specific tRNA Half, 3'tiRNA‐GlyGCC, Regulates Hypoxic Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation via Myrf‐Mediated Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
A schematic diagram illustrating how 3′tiRNA‐GlyGCC promotes the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and proliferation in hypoxic pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) by inhibiting the expression of myelin regulatory factor (Myrf), ultimately leading to pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Bioelectrical Impedance in Pediatric Dialysis: Clinical Applications, Limitations, and Opportunities

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optimizing fluid and nutritional management is a cornerstone of care for children with end‐stage kidney disease on dialysis. Inaccurate assessment of hydration status contributes to hypertension, fluid overload, and increased cardiovascular risk, while masking important changes in muscle and fat compartments that affect growth and ...

Prospective Trial of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of High Dominant Frequencies After Pulmonary Vein Isolation in Non‐Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation (PAD‐AF Trial): A Multicenter, Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
In persistent AF, adjunctive dominant frequency‐guided ablation after pulmonary vein isolation did not significantly improve outcomes. Limited overlap between high‐frequency sites and low‐voltage areas suggests functional–structural dissociation, while right atrial low‐voltage burden predicts recurrence.
