Brain Health Deviation Index: A Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment Biomarker for Predicting Cognitive Decline and Polyvascular Stenosis

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Assessing and quantifying brain health remains a pressing challenge, despite its importance for overall well‐being. Traditional methods that focus on isolated brain measures often fail to capture the multifaceted nature of brain health and may miss early signs of dysfunction.

Multiomics identifies the link between intratumor steatosis and the exhausted tumor immune microenvironment in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Steatotic HCC can be diagnosed by MRI and forms a pro‐tumor immune microenvironment with high expression of PD‐L1, M2 polarization of macrophages and activation of CAFs, which may be a good target for combined immunotherapy. Abstract Background and Aims Immunotherapy has become the standard‐of‐care treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its ...

Pre‐Existing and New‐Onset Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent comorbidity in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). In addition, new‐onset AF can occur after TAVI. However, data on how AF affects outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI remain conflicting.

Circulating TREM2 as a noninvasive diagnostic biomarker for NASH in patients with elevated liver stiffness

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Reliable noninvasive biomarkers are an unmet clinical need for the diagnosis of NASH. This study investigates the diagnostic accuracy of the circulating triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (plasma TREM2) as a biomarker for NASH in patients with NAFLD and elevated liver stiffness.

Influence of the Residual Gensini Score on Prognosis of Patients With ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The residual Gensini score (rGS) was developed to quantify the severity of coronary atheroma burden after coronary revascularisation. The predictive value of the rGS for clinical outcomes in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unexplored.

Radial Versus Femoral Access for Diagnostic Coronary Angiography: Insights From a Tertiary Academic Center in Johannesburg

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The radial artery is the preferred access for performing diagnostic coronary angiograms (DCA). However, data on the safety and efficacy of radial compared to femoral access in low‐ and middle‐income countries is limited. Aims This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radial versus femoral access in patients referred for
