Coronary artery disease and percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with severe chronic kidney disease.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), presenting unique challenges in diagnosis and management. Advanced CKD patients often present with atypical symptoms, and conventional diagnostic and interventional approaches carry risks, including contrast-induced nephropathy and the potential need for renal replacement therapy. These risks have led to the phenomenon of "renalism," where necessary procedures may be deferred due to concerns over renal injury.

Translational Research on Azacitidine Post-Remission Therapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Elderly Patients (QOL-ONE Trans-2).

The achievement of complete remission (CR) is crucial for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients undertaking curative therapy, but relapse often occurs within months, highlighting the need for strategies to prolong disease-free survival (DFS). Our phase III study compared the efficacy and safety of azacitidine (AZA) to best supportive care (BSC) in elderly AML patients who achieved CR following intensive induction and consolidation therapy. This ancillary study (QOL-ONE Trans-2) evaluated biological changes in bone marrow using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS).

Comparative kinetics of humans and non-human primates during vertical climbing.

Climbing represents a critical behavior in the context of primate evolution. However, anatomically modern human populations are considered ill-suited for climbing. This adaptation can be attributed to the evolution of striding bipedalism, redirecting anatomical traits away from efficient climbing.

How Pendular Is Human Brachiation? When Form Does Not Follow Function.

Brachiation is a form of suspensory locomotion observed only in Primates. The non-human hominoids (e.g.
