Impact of Treatment Response to Anticoagulant Therapy on Liver‐Related Events in Patients With Cirrhosis and Portal Vein Thrombosis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
In patients with cirrhosis and a first portal vein thrombosis treated with intravenous anticoagulant therapy, the 3‐year cumulative rates of liver‐related events were 56.7% and 75.5% in the effective and ineffective groups, respectively. A good radiological response was associated with fewer liver‐related hospitalizations.

Mitochondrial oxidative stress, calcium and dynamics in cardiac ischaemia‐reperfusion injury

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Heart attack causes ischaemia–reperfusion injury in cardiomyocytes. Mitochondria generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to oxidative stress. High levels of mitochondrial calcium (Ca2+) activate the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), and excess ROS levels can lower the Ca2+ required to activate the mPTP ...
