Early discharge programme after transcatheter aortic valve implantation based on close follow-up supported by telemonitoring using artificial intelligence: the TeleTAVI study.

Aims: Evidence regarding the safety of early discharge following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety of very early (<24) and early discharge (24-48 h) as compared to standard discharge (>48 h), supported by the implementation of a voice-based virtual assistant using artificial intelligence (AI) and natural language processing.

Methods And Results: Single-arm prospective observational study that included consecutive patients who underwent TAVI in a tertiary hospital in 2023 and were discharged under an AI follow-up programme.

Antibody-drug conjugates in urothelial carcinoma: current status and future.

Purpose Of Review: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are quickly becoming frontline standard of care in many tumor types, including urothelial carcinoma. This review summarizes recent clinical investigations into the use of ADCs targeting nectin-4, trophoblast cell surface antigen-2 (Trop-2), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2), and other antigens in urothelial carcinoma.

Recent Findings: This review covers efficacy and toxicity data of ADCs alone and in combination with immunotherapy; mechanisms of resistance; and preclinical studies that provide biological basis for clinical approaches.

The Cul3 ubiquitin ligase engages Insomniac as an adaptor to impact sleep and synaptic homeostasis.

Mutations of the Cullin-3 (Cul3) E3 ubiquitin ligase are associated with autism and schizophrenia, neurological disorders characterized by sleep disturbances and altered synaptic function. Cul3 engages dozens of adaptor proteins to recruit hundreds of substrates for ubiquitination, but the adaptors that impact sleep and synapses remain ill-defined. Here we implicate Insomniac (Inc), a conserved protein required for normal sleep and synaptic homeostasis in Drosophila, as a Cul3 adaptor.

Recombination, truncation and horizontal transfer shape the diversity of cytoplasmic incompatibility patterns.

are endosymbiotic bacteria inducing various reproductive manipulations of which cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI) is the most common. CI leads to reduced embryo viability in crosses between males carrying and uninfected females or those carrying an incompatible symbiont strain. In the mosquito , the Pip causes highly complex crossing patterns.

Pain Management in Pediatrics: What the IR has to Offer.

Pediatric pain management presents unique challenges due to the intrinsic characteristics of children such as their developmental stages, communication barriers, and varying pain perceptions. Life-limiting conditions affecting children are a growing medical concern, requiring a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to improve quality of life or ensure a dignified end of life. Interventional radiology (IR) plays a critical role in this strategy, similar to its role in adult care.
