Emerging methods for subtype differentiation in primary aldosteronism
Abstract Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a common cause of hypertension. Compared to patients with essential hypertension, untreated PA is associated with a two‐ to fourfold greater risk of cardiovascular disease, renal failure, and death. PA is caused by increased secretion of aldosterone from one adrenal gland in 30% of the patients and both adrenal ...

Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) acutely inhibited gluconeogenesis and enhanced glycolysis, glycogenolysis, and fatty acid oxidation in perfused rat livers. Mechanistic assays revealed mitochondrial uncoupling, inhibition of pyruvate carboxylation and glucose‐6‐phosphatase, shift of NADH/NAD+ ratios toward oxidation, and loss of membrane integrity ...

A Computational Journey Toward an Optimal Design for Metamaterial Epicardial Passive Sleeves
Passive epicardial sleeves are evaluated in 3D in‐silico heart models to reveal how sleeve geometry, stiffness, anisotropy, and metamaterial architecture influence cardiac mechanics after myocardial infarction. A continuum‐to‐auxetic design exploration shows that region‐specific mechanical engagement can reduce infarct bulging and modulate torsional ...

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Pancreatic Pseudocyst With Thoracic Extension: A Clinicoradiological Case Report
CECT sagittal view shows an enlarged, heterogeneously enhancing pancreas with a peripancreatic collection extending into the posterior mediastinum and compressing the esophagus with massive right pleural fluid noted. ABSTRACT Pancreatic pseudocysts are encapsulated, enzyme‐rich peripancreatic fluid collections that typically develop following acute or ...
