Background: Patients with pericarditis may show elevation of C-reactive protein (CRP) and pericardial effusion at presentation. There are limited data on the prognostic implications of this inflammatory phenotype.
Objectives: Aim of the present study is to evaluate the outcome of the inflammatory phenotype in a cohort of patients with acute pericarditis.
Introduction: Bronchiectasis is a complex lung disease with poorly studied systemic manifestations. Patients with bronchiectasis-associated sarcopenia exhibit a specific differential profile of functional muscle phenotype (vastus lateralis, VL), which may be analyzed using imaging (ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging, MRI).
Methods: Ultrasound and MRI were used to explore functional imaging parameters in quadriceps of 20 patients with stable bronchiectasis and 10 healthy controls.
Purpose: to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of late iodine enhancement (LIE) in cardiac computed tomography (CCT) compared to late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for myocardial tissue characterization.
Materials And Methods: EMBASE, PubMed/MEDLINE, and CENTRAL were searched for studies reporting the accuracy of LIE with LGE as the gold standard of reference. QUADAS-2 tool was used to assess the risk of bias.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on detecting multijet signatures from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV, analyzing a dataset totaling 128 fb^{-1}.
- A special data scouting method is utilized to pick out events with low combined momentum in jets.
- This research is pioneering in its investigation of electroweak particle production in R-parity violating supersymmetric models, particularly examining hadronically decaying mass-degenerate higgsinos, and it broadens the limits on the existence of R-parity violating top squarks and gluinos.
Article Synopsis
- Transmural pressure and shear stress are key mechanical forces that influence the behavior of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) in the vascular wall.
- Specific TRP cation channels (like TRPC6, TRPM4, TRPV1, TRPV4, and TRPP1) play a crucial role in regulating calcium levels in these cells, helping to adjust blood vessel tone based on changes in pressure and flow.
- Although these TRP channels are involved in sensing mechanical changes, there's limited evidence of their direct mechanosensitivity, prompting investigations into the signaling pathways that activate them in response to vascular forces.
