Targeting Amyloid‐β (Aβ) aggregation requires a peptide‐based approach that accounts for the structural heterogeneity of Aβ. Here, we employ topological reprogramming via disulfide bonds to stabilize antiparallel β‐sheets within the dimeric peptide.

Intraoperative Use of Vasoactive Agents in Non‐Cardiac Surgery: Protocol for a Post Hoc Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative hypotension is a well‐known clinical condition and often treated with vasoactive agents. Previous cohort studies have indicated that large numbers of patients receive this treatment, but they have been limited to specific surgical populations or single agents.

Background In cardiogenic shock (CS), titration of both the choice and dosage of inotropes and vasopressors is crucial. The vasoactive–inotropic score (VIS) quantifies hemodynamic support, while the effect of temporal VIS change on prognosis remains unclear. This study evaluated the association between the vasoactive–inotropic score reduction rate (VRR)

Background Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is a significant cause of cirrhosis decompensation; however, there is still controversy on risk factors for poor outcomes. This study aims to explore the impact of additional variables, such as liver disease etiology and intensive care unit (ICU) accessibility, on mortality, rebleeding, and infection ...

Severe hyponatraemia to terlipressin treatment.
Terlipressin is a vasopressin analogue. The clinical effect is attributable to affinity to vasopressin-1a receptors. However, it also has affinity to renal vasopressin-2 receptors, which can lead to water retention and dilutional hyponatraemia. We report
