Preclinical Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of a Novel Controlled‐Expansion ePTFE‐Covered TIPS Stent in a Swine Model

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This preclinical study evaluated a novel controlled‐expansion expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE)‐covered transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) stent in 11 swine, demonstrating 100% technical success, excellent deployability, and durable 6‐month angiographic patency without thrombosis, migration, fracture, or device‐related toxicity.

Diagnosis of Portal Hypertension: Advancing Towards Non‐Invasive Solutions

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes a full spectrum of non‐invasive diagnostic approaches for portal hypertension (PH), including imaging modalities, elastography, serum biomarkers, composite scoring systems and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided portal pressure gradient (EUS‐PPG), and analyzes their performance across different liver disease etiologies ...

Exploratory Analysis of Peri‐Prostatic Adipose Tissue Radiomics Features and Their Potential to Predict Prostate Cancer Diagnosis: Results From a UK Biobank Study

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This paper reports the development and application of an artificial intelligence (AI)–led approach to large volume MRI data curation and image segmentation of periprostatic adipose tissue (PPAT) in prostate cancer (PCa)–free men from the UK Biobank. We report how PPAT was defined, radiomics features of PPAT extracted, and explored

Plant‐Derived Bioactives and PPAR Signaling in Functional Dyspepsia: Mechanistic Insights and Therapeutic Perspectives

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Functional dyspepsia involves duodenal barrier dysfunction, low‐grade immune activation and altered neuroimmune signalling. Various plant‐derived bioactives may modulate PPAR signalling, reduce inflammatory and oxidative stress, and support epithelial, immune, metabolic, and sensory homeostasis.

Rotenone Induces Morphological Damage and Reduction in Catecholamine Levels in the Central Nervous System of the Ascidian Styela plicata

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...
