Diagnostic value of the head-up tilt test and the R-test in patients with syncope

Heart International, 2006
The diagnostic value of the head-up tilt test (HUTT) in discovering vasovagal syndrome depends on the pre-test probability. An accurate anamnesis and clinical examination screens the patients indicated for the HUTT.

Sympathetic dysfunction in vasovagal syncope and the postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014

Medical trauma in context: Recognizing and addressing medically induced posttraumatic stress disorder in adults

Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract Potentially traumatic medical events (PTMEs) occur across acute and chronic illness trajectories, such as invasive procedures, intensive care, and life‐threatening diagnoses. Emerging evidence suggests that approximately 20% of individuals exposed to PTMEs develop posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Time‐Resolved Multi‐Omics Identify Biomarkers of Immediate Reactions to mRNA Vaccination

Allergy, EarlyView.
We compared early vaccine‐induced immune and metabolic signatures and downstream immunity after second and booster BNT162b2 doses in participants with sARs, ISSRs, or no reactions. Neutrophil mobilization, antiviral programs, and robust anti‐S‐antibody responses occurred across reaction groups.

Efficacy and Safety of Abatacept Versus Placebo During Peanut Oral Immunotherapy for Adults With Severe Peanut Allergy

Allergy, EarlyView.
In this Phase 2a trial, severely peanut‐allergic participants were randomized to abatacept versus placebo with peanut oral immunotherapy (OIT) for 24 weeks, followed by 12 weeks of OIT alone. No significant difference was observed for the primary efficacy outcome (the relative change from baseline in peanut‐specific/total IgE ratio at 24 weeks), but ...
