ABSTRACT Previous studies have shown that red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is an independent risk factor for the prognosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and is also associated with cardiovascular events in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD).

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

Diabetic Retinopathy Severity and Heart Failure Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
In type 2 diabetes, worsening diabetic retinopathy is associated with both systolic and diastolic dysfunction and independently predicts incident heart failure. Routine retinal evaluation may help identify patients at increased microvascular and cardiovascular risk.

USP45 stabilizes CFTR through deubiquitination, thereby activating PMCA, which inhibits calcium/chloride overload and mitochondrial oxidative stress in senescent cardiomyocytes, ultimately alleviating cardiomyocyte senescence. ABSTRACT Cardiomyocyte senescence drives cardiovascular disease, underscoring the need to define its molecular mechanisms.
