Single cell transcriptomics profiling of the stromal cells in the pathologic association of ribosomal proteins in the ischemic myocardium and epicardial fat.

Sustenance of ischemia in the surviving cardiac tissue following myocardial infarction (MI) elicits a proinflammatory milieu resulting in subsequent pathological episodes. Also, the activation and release of ribosomal proteins under ischemic insults have been unveiled; however, their extra ribosomal functions are unknown. We identified the ribosomal proteins including RPL10A, RPL14, RPL30, RPS18, FAU-40 (RPS30), and RPSA (Laminin Receptor, LR) in the vesicles of ischemia challenged epicardial adipose tissue derived stromal cells (EATDS).

Emergency esophagectomy for esophageal perforation following balloon dilation due to stenosis post-endoscopic submucosal dissection for esophageal cancer: a case report.

Introduction And Importance: Esophageal perforation from endoscopic dilation is rare (0.53-0.6% incidence) but serious, with mortality rates of 12.

A Large Esophageal Leiomyoma: Thoraco-Laparoscopic Enucleation or Esophagectomy and Reconstruction?

BACKGROUND Esophageal leiomyoma is a rare condition, with an estimated incidence rate of 0.4% of all esophageal neoplasms. These tumors are typically small, rarely more than 5 cm.

Pathological alterations in the expression status of rotator cuff tendon matrix components in hyperlipidemia.

Hyperlipidemia is an important risk factor in the development and progression of tendon pathology, however its role in aggravating rotator cuff tendon injury (RCTI) is largely unknown. We aimed to assess the expression status of key extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the tendon tissues and tenocytes under hyperlipidemia. Shoulder rotator cuff (RC) tendon tissues harvested from the swine model of hyperlipidemia displayed alterations in histomorphometry and the expression status of major ECM component proteins including COL-I, COL-III, COL-IV, COL-V, COL-VI, MMP2, and MMP9.

Intelligent Hydrogels in Myocardial Regeneration and Engineering.

Myocardial infarction (MI) causes impaired cardiac function due to the loss of cardiomyocytes following an ischemic attack. Intelligent hydrogels offer promising solutions for post-MI cardiac tissue therapy to aid in structural support, contractility, and targeted drug therapy. Hydrogels are porous hydrophilic matrices used for biological scaffolding, and upon the careful alteration of ideal functional groups, the hydrogels respond to the chemistry of the surrounding microenvironment, resulting in intelligent hydrogels.

Right Upper Quadrant Pain Following Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography; a Case Report.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a standard for diagnosing and treating hepato-pancreatico-biliary (HPB) diseases in clinical settings. ERCP-related complications are relatively common, ranging from 4 to 30%. The most common one is acute pancreatitis.

The impact of COVID-19 economic crisis on the speed of adjustment toward target leverage ratio: An international analysis.

This paper investigates changes in the speed of adjustment toward target leverage ratio under the impact of COVID-19 economic crisis. Using an international sample of publicly listed firms, we find that, on average, firms tend to adjust their capital structure more rapidly in the period following the breakout of COVID-19. Furthermore, we find that firms domiciled in countries in which COVID-19 causes more severe damage, adjust their target leverage quicker than firms domiciled in less severely affected countries.
